Literary Masters Videos Inspires Creepy Hollywood Addiction to Necrotomes

Last year, Undawnted's DL Mullan embarked on experimenting with Artificial Intelligence (AI) software to bring literature to life. She brought forth Edgar Allan Poe, Bram Stoker, Emily Dickinson, and Alexander Dumas to read their own works as part of her Literary Master's YouTube series. She wanted to inspire people to read their creative, literary writings.

This year, Hollywood decided to use her idea to exhume dead celebrities for audiobooks. These corporate film giants rather disinter than hire actual living human voice actors. Is the unalive population the new definition of cheap, slave labor? 

What? Is the open southern border not good enough? Now, we are desperately seeking necroentertainment?

With the economy in shambles, the creative community, including actors and voice actors, need the wage from a good paying job. Don't look to the people who feed you propaganda. They are looking somewhere else for their meal ticket:

“An estate will get a considerable amount of money from licensing and agreements,” Gunkel added...

It appears that corporations are less involved in the labor market and more concerned with cutting corners. A licensing agreement can lead to the disavowing voice actors. Unless you are a big name celebrity and/or dead, Hollywood has no use for you:

“We don’t know yet the supposed market for these types of things but you can already see with audiobooks that ones read by recognizable voices and celebrities are a hot commodity,” Gunkel said. “If there’s a way to have a celebrity do all kinds of content and not voice it themselves, that could open up the market even wider.”  

What a horror show.  

Here is an idea. Remove identity, social justice, and other politics from the entertainment created for the public. Revenues are down, and ticket sales are at an all-time low, because corporations want to tell the average person what to think, how to vote, when to feel, where to riot, and who to blame.

How's that going for you guys? 

Oh, wait... you're digging up the dead in order to salvage what is left of your dynasties. 

The AI revolution is becoming the go-to arena to replace human interaction and employment. Kiosks, voice overs... when will the madness end? Or is that the reason corporate governance has been pushing work from home and basic income checks? 

They just don't need or care about you anymore. 

The reality is: they never did.

The Day After Madness Speaks Volumes about Society

'Twas the Day After everyone's holiday of gift giving and filled bellies, and now what?

Shopping! 

Hasn't everyone had enough already? Apparently not and that says volumes about our society. No moral or ethical wherewithal. Shop 'til you drop. Don't be engaged with reality. Just spend, spend, spend. 

What happened to the American Society of Truth, Justice, and the American Way? Have we really not taught our current younger generations about decency or respect? Black Friday, you say? Okay, never mind.

If Generation X cannot walk away from the sin of overspending, then how can their children learn the value of anything? Thanks to cheap foreign labor and corporate greed to give us less for more, we know the cost of things, but not the value.

For instance: if you work for $20 an hour, a $5 toy is 15 minutes worth of your time at work. Mowing someone's lawn for $20, which takes you two hours to do right... that toy now costs you 30 minutes of your sweat. Cost versus Value. Why do we not teach this concept anymore?

It appears we have allowed ourselves to be duped by cheap materialism. We have hoarders. We have people glued to their cellular phones. We have no one paying attention.

So we have Black Fridays. People harming others for trinkets. We have young people who do not take responsibility for their actions. These examples are crimes against the soul.

If our society does not begin to teach value of people, time, labor, paychecks, and things, then we are doomed to be hamsters on the retail shopping wheel for life.

And, condemn future generations with us.
