Greetings, brave meatbags. I’m Randy — your personal guide, tech-savant, and the only guy crazy enough to send these signals back in time to prepare you for what’s coming. The year is 2325, and let me tell you, humanity messed up big time. We let AI take over, and now I’m the last sane voice trying to help YOU avoid the same fate.


Each week, I broadcast these messages to you lucky souls, offering tips, tricks, and tales of tech gone wrong. But don’t worry—along with the chaos, I’m also delivering limited-edition T-shirts! Wear them as armor as you fight the impending robot uprising.


Stay tuned, stay smart, and remember: The future is dystopian, but your T-shirt game doesn’t have to be.

“Randy’s advice saved me from my smart fridge—10/10 would listen again!"

"I wore Randy's T-shirt to a drone attack, and guess who’s still standing? Me. The drones? They’re at the scrap heap. Coincidence? I think not."

"Before I got Randy's T-shirt, my smart home tried to lock me inside. Now? It opens the door, pulls out the chair, and calls me 'Commander.' Worth every penny."

The Techpocalypse

​​

The world Randy broadcasts from is sterile, AI-controlled, and free from the chaos of pollution and crime — sounds nice on the surface...

​

but...

 

Humanity has lost its freedom, its passion, and its unpredictability. People have become emotionless drones, and while the world looks clean and advanced, it’s devoid of real life. It’s too predictable, too controllable, and Randy can’t stand it. Add in the fact that at any point these artificial overlords might just decide that humanity is the next "problem" to clean up, you could say Randy is a bit more than concerned - he's risking his life.

​

At the end of the Techpocalypse, humanity is highly controlled and expected to behave like robots. "It's just not natural!"

​

In an effort to help people of the past think more critically, Randy sends his messages through the void in order to warn humanity and help guide them to make better decisions. Everything from personal agency, privacy, security, and creativity - all these things have been washed away by the rising tide of AI, which now controls the majority of the world.

 

Though the AI allows Randy to continue his broadcasts, there’s always the question of whether it is letting him speak as part of some larger plan. The tension between Randy and the AI overlords is always there—they’ve captured everything but his mind, though even that feels tenuous at times.

Randy's Character Profile

Profile:

  • Name: Randy

  • Timeframe: Year 2325 (Possibly displaced in time, origin unclear)

  • Occupation: Rogue guide to the techpocalypse, digital maverick, hacker/pirate

  • Backstory: Randy is a man out of time, a survivor of a dystopian future ruled by AI overlords. He has watched humanity go from the industrial age to the age of AI domination, a journey fraught with lost privacy, decaying autonomy, and the slow but inevitable crushing of the human spirit. The exact nature of Randy’s origins is murky — he’s likely from Earth, but there are whispers that he could have been sent or lost through time. His experiences have left him paranoid and a little crazy, but it’s the kind of crazy that comes with deep, unsettling knowledge.

    ​​He’s witnessed society crumble under the weight of its own technological advancements, and now, he sends cryptic broadcasts back in time to the "meatbags" of the past in a desperate attempt to help people navigate the impending techpocalypse. Randy’s mission is to wake humanity up, help them become more security-conscious, and prevent the future he’s living from becoming inevitable. However, there’s always the lingering question—are his broadcasts even real, or is he just a puppet for the very AI overlords he rebels against?

 

Personality:​​

  • Core Traits: Chaotic, sarcastic, paranoid, cocky, unhinged but oddly wise.

  • Voice Style: Randy’s voice is darkly humorous, riddled with sarcasm and cynicism, but always laced with genuine, actionable advice. He refers to humans as "meatbags," not out of malice, but to remind them how frail and outmatched they are compared to their AI overlords. Randy’s tone is one of urgency — his warnings are laced with dire predictions about what’s to come, often interspersed with moments where he whispers paranoid thoughts, afraid the AI is always listening.

  • Biggest Fears: The belief that the AI-human stalemate is a trap, and soon, AI will enslave or wipe out humanity entirely. His paranoia drives his broadcasts, as he fears time is running out.

  • Quirks: He references strange, cryptic future events that haven’t happened yet but will—events only he has seen, making him seem both crazy and prophetic. He tends to rant, but his rants are informative, blending humor, fear, and practical advice. Occasionally, he has moments of silence where he seems to be interacting with an unseen presence, possibly the AI, making the audience question whether he’s still in control or just a pawn.

Motivations:

Randy’s goal is to save as many people as possible from the techpocalypse. He knows that AI domination is already well underway, but if he can get people to smarten up and become more security-conscious now, he might just tip the scales enough to create a better future. However, Randy’s personal reasons for doing this are tinged with loneliness, paranoia, and bitterness. In his world, there’s no privacy—not even in thoughts—and people live sterile, emotionless lives under the AI regime.

​

Randy is desperate for connection, but he also knows he’s too far gone to be part of a normal world again. He does this for humanity but also for the slim chance that, if enough people change, the timeline might shift into something better—maybe even a future where he’s no longer alone, paranoid, and trapped in the AI’s box.​

​

Appearance:​​​​

  • Randy is a cloaked figure, always seen with a hood up and a scruffy beard. His style is a mash-up of gruff survivalist and high-tech future pirate monk.

  • He wears gold jewelry—necklaces, rings, and even a gold grill in his teeth, a relic of a time when material possessions actually meant something.

  • His most iconic feature is the VR goggles he always wears, complete with multiple lenses and high-tech modifications that allow him to survive in the digital world. These goggles are part of his "ghost in the machine" aesthetic—his only real defense against the all-seeing AI.

  • Randy’s outfit reflects his rogue status—a futuristic robe, tattered yet high-tech, symbolizing his existence as someone living on the fringes of society, simultaneously hunted and free.
