You have something a robot will never have. A warm butthole.
When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.

You need to fall back on your actual talents. Things people appreciate humans with skill doing. For some it's art, for some it's carpentry. For you, it's probably selling your holes.

As long as he doesn't sell bussy to @explosivemanlet, that kind of finger girth could ruin his moneymaker.

They have other talents, like carpentry and art. Or sports/fitness, the people with money will still want human personal trainers. Especially the rich housewives looking for an easy affair. A human barman will always do well, as people don't go to a bar to chat with a fucking robot. There are tons of jobs requiring human talent or interpersonal skills.

But again, you're only good for sucking dick. So best buy some kneepads, phaggot.

I believe it

They will look back at our time as a period degenerate peasants and I can't even say they'll be wrong.
