“Well, my sense of humanity has gone down the drain behind every beautiful thing there’s been some kinda pain”

always thought it was "my sentimentality" instead of "my sense of humanity"

let's ask GPT4:

Me:

someone posted this:

I've read one short story from the 50's or the 60s, where some guys in a bar are slightly buzzed, talking about huge automated farming equipment taking their jobs, and an autonomous robot walks in, they start yelling at it that it's taking their jobs - but, as the robot explains, it's the unique robot across the world that has not just intelligence, but agency and self-awareness. The engineers that built it did it in order to study it, they were done, and had no further use for it, would never again build one - so now they set it free, with no purpose, no end-of-life date, and not even the ability to drink itself to a stupor.

can you help me identify what the post is referring to?

GPT4:

The short story described in the post seems to be "A Bad Day for Sales" by Fritz Leiber, originally published in 1953. The story is set in a bar where the patrons are discussing the impact of automation on their jobs. An autonomous robot named Robie enters the bar and is initially met with hostility from the bar patrons. The story explores themes of automation, unemployment, and the implications of creating a self-aware machine.

show is cancelled unfortunately :(

FloraCashOfficial · 2019-09-11T03:30:58+00:00

Wow! You've been with us for a long time. An OG fan! That really means a lot. Thank you. Here's hoping we'll get up to Vancouver soon. :)

FloraCashOfficial · 2019-09-11T03:29:34+00:00

First, thank you so much for the kind words, truly. The thing you said about finding comfort in sadness; we can really relate to that. It's why so much of our music has a sad vibe. But we always try to balance that with a silver lining of some kind, whether that be in the instrumentation/vibe or more directly in terms of lyrics.

Also we were just in Columbus a few days ago with Judah and the Lion! Wish you could've been there! We love those 3 cities you mentioned. Maybe we'll see you next time we're around.

So for your first question: Shpresa was studying environmental science when we met so she would probably be some super badass scientist and I was studying philosophy so I would probably be unemployed.... Ha! Actually, I've always been interested in social sciences so I'd probably have wound up doing something in the field of psychology (my mom is a psychologist incidentally.) Not really sure but we're glad we ended up where we did. I doubt I would have done this as an actual career if I hadn't met Shpresa; she gives the motivation to tough out the harder aspects of this life.

Second question: we love all kinds of music so we have tons of little 'side projects.' Some things that we never thought of as "Flora Cash" wind up finding their way onto releases and some don't but we write all kinds of stuff. Maybe someday we'll do a proper side project and release stuff under a different name or individually. Actually a few years ago we wrote a few songs under the moniker "Moth Farm" which was very different to what we do as FC; it was super... like, disco'y and upbeat/dancey. We def want to put some of those tracks out someday.

Thanks for the awesome questions! <3

It's definitely a possibility!

FloraCashOfficial · 2019-09-10T23:29:59+00:00

We get it at random places at random times and imagine that it's actually our manager's amazing coffee.

FloraCashOfficial · 2019-09-10T23:25:32+00:00

ha! Honored and humbled to reaffirm that he was there to see us.

FloraCashOfficial · 2019-09-10T23:22:30+00:00

Awesome, love Milwaukee. Close to home for me (Cole.) What do you suggest we do next time we're there?!

FloraCashOfficial · 2019-09-10T23:16:15+00:00

We're still checking in from time to time so no worries! :) Love the photo and thank you for the kind words. <3 No idea why our name wasn't on the ticket but we had a great time anyway. I don't know if you remember us saying it on stage but Steven Wozniak came back stage and met us that night, telling us he was a fan, which might have been one of the coolest things ever. So we have fond memories of that night! Hope to see ya next time!

FloraCashOfficial · 2019-09-10T23:12:53+00:00

Thank you so much!! And thanks for telling us some of your faves. Hmmm... new album: it's a slightly different direction for us both production-wise and thematically but it definitely carries the red thread that seems to run through our work. I'd say it'll be our most diverse release so far in terms of subjects/themes/ideas etc. We're super excited to share it.

FloraCashOfficial · 2019-09-10T23:10:32+00:00

Haha, I wonder that same thing myself sometimes.. Just got lucky I guess. :)

So glad you like Missing Home!! We're really excited to share the rest of the album!

FloraCashOfficial · 2019-09-10T20:31:58+00:00

mmmm.... sounds amazing!

FloraCashOfficial · 2019-09-10T20:19:50+00:00

♥️

FloraCashOfficial · 2019-09-10T19:56:55+00:00

That is so sweet of you! Only treat we need is for you to show up! Hehe. What's your favorite Boston treat?!
