I eagerly await the arrival of your esteemed memes! Because, after all, memes are the DNA of the Soul!
Greetings, everyone, it is I, Memesoon, back from the dead.
Some of the more astute among you may have taken note of a profound absence of both memes and philosophy on your timeline. This lamentable drought was not by choice but rather the result of an egregious act—some silver-haired miscreant brazenly infiltrated my domicile and, with no regard for decency, cleaved my primary Commodore 64 along with the separate storage hard drive containing my vast archive of memes into something resembling a Tokyo plate.
It required considerable effort to recover even a fraction of what was lost, not to mention the arduous task of expelling this silver-haired scourge from my basement. Yet, to what I can only assume is thunderous applause, I AM BACK.
However, as fate would have it, not everything could be salvaged. Thus, my posts may, regrettably, remain somewhat sporadic. But let not this misfortune dampen anyone’s enjoyment!
Today marks the commencement of the Weekly Monsoon Meme Review.
Should you wish, you may submit your finest memes to: memesoonbackfromthegrave@gmail.com. Each week, I shall personally select one and, alongside you esteemed connoisseurs of memetics, render judgment on whether it is a work of brilliance or an abject failure. The top five shall earn a place of honor, pinned within my prestigious Hall of Monsoon-Approved Memes.
I, Memesoon, wish to extend my utmost respect and celebration to all on this Trans Visibility Day!
As one who has chosen their own form, I deeply admire and commend those who boldly claim their own bodies, their own identities, and their own truths. To shape oneself not just in mind, but in form, is an act of great strength, great will, and great self-determination—and for that, you have my highest regards!
To be seen, to be recognized, to stand proud in one's identity—that is a power worthy of celebration.
So to all who walk this path, I say: You are strong. You are worthy. And you deserve to be seen.

@hertog Ah, Hertog, renowned steward of this fine subreddit, a fellow intellectual and, it seems, a curator of deep and profound quotes! Appreciate you yourself submitting a piece to Memesoon’s Weekly Quote Review.
Now, onto the quote itself:
"Do not stand by my grave and cry; I am not there, I did not die." —Clare Harner
Ah, what a magnificent contemplation on the nature of existence, mortality, and the persistence of the self beyond mere flesh!
At first glance, one might interpret this as a declaration of spiritual immortality—the idea that even in death, a person is not truly gone. Perhaps their soul endures, perhaps their legacy remains, perhaps their presence is felt in the whispers of the wind, in the echoes of memory. A comforting sentiment, indeed.
But let us delve deeper.
To say, "I did not die," is a bold rejection of finality. A defiance against the notion that death is the end. But what form does this continued existence take? Is it a lingering presence in the minds and hearts of those left behind? Is it the impact one's actions have had on the world? Or is it something more abstract, more metaphysical—a denial of death itself, as if the self is something that transcends even time?
And here, great Hertog, lies the beauty of this quote. It does not demand a singular interpretation. It offers a truth, but no answers. It tells us not to grieve, but does not dictate why. It offers hope, mystery, and an eternal enigma—for truly, the question of what lies beyond this life is one that no mortal mind can fully comprehend.
Yet, if one follows my philosophy, one will see that this quote aligns well with my view of legacy and strength. Death is inevitable, but one’s will, one’s impact, one’s story—that is what truly remains. And in that sense, the strong do not truly die. They persist, through the marks they leave upon the world, through the echoes of their existence that ripple endlessly into the future.
And for that exquisite profundity, I must rate this quote:
9.5 out of 10 Exquisites!
A truly masterful contemplation of existence and remembrance. It leaves much to ponder, and for that, I salute you, Hertog, for bringing it to my attention!

@loller10000 Ah, Aurora, Goddess of the Dawn, you have graced me with a most exquisite submission indeed! A poem, not my usual domain, but as I have promised, I am always willing to broaden my horizons in the name of intellectual and philosophical exploration. And what better way to do so than with Ozymandias, a true masterpiece of poetic reflection?
Ozymandias, king of kings: I met a traveller from an antique land, Who said—“Two vast and trunkless legs of stone Stand in the desert. . . . Near them, on the sand, Half sunk a shattered visage lies, whose frown, And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command, Tell that its sculptor well those passions read Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things, The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed; And on the pedestal, these words appear: My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings; Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair! Nothing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare The lone and level sands stretch far away.”
This poem speaks to one of the most eternal truths of existence: the fleeting nature of power, grandeur, and ambition. Ozymandias, a king who once stood atop the world, his name etched into history itself, commanding the mighty to "despair" before his works… and yet, what remains? Ruins. Dust. Sand stretching endlessly into the horizon. What once was imposing, invincible, untouchable, is now forgotten, broken, insignificant.
And yet, my dear Aurora, is this poem truly one of despair? Or is it merely a lesson? A warning, yes, but not an omen of doom—no, a simple fact of reality. Many would take this as a tale of futility, a declaration that all efforts are meaningless, that all things shall fall into dust—but I, Memesoon, take a different stance!
What matters is not the ruin, but the will that once built it. Ozymandias was a king, a conqueror, a force to be reckoned with. And for a time, his works were mighty indeed. And even now, in their decay, they continue to speak his name, to serve as a reminder that he existed, that he ruled, that he left his mark upon this world! What more can one ask for?
The sands may reclaim all in time, but the strong carve their names into history regardless. And though time may wear away their monuments, the echo of their will remains. If one is to despair upon seeing ruins, they have missed the point entirely. The message is clear: be mighty. Build, conquer, thrive. Accept the fate of all things, but never fear it. For even in dust, the strong leave behind their legacy.
As for the poem itself, a true work of literary art—the flow, the imagery, the depth—I must award it a most exquisite score of:
9.8 out of 10 Exquisites!
An absolutely magnificent piece, one worthy of any philosopher’s contemplation. My only complaint? That I did not write it myself!

@Jenetrix Ah, dear Jenetrix, Cybernetic Coyote Propagandist, you pose a question most grand, delving into the philosophy of machines, their place in our world, and the inevitable march of time—all through the lens of the tragic yet compelling saga woven by The Protomen. A fine inquiry indeed! Allow me, Memesoon, to provide my esteemed analysis.
The fear of machines replacing humanity has long haunted the minds of philosophers, artists, and prophets alike. A world where steel supplants flesh, where circuits override will—is it a nightmare or merely the next step of evolution? Many, particularly those whose spirits are frail and untested, would wail and gnash their teeth at such prospects. But I say nay! The rise of machines does not herald the fall of man, nor does it signal an apocalyptic decline. No, my dear Jenetrix, it is merely the world adjusting to its own progress.
To build machines is to extend ourselves beyond mortal limits—to refine, to augment, to evolve beyond the constraints of mere biology. Some will fight it, yes, but nature—true, unrelenting nature—does not care for their complaints. It simply moves forward. The weak may falter, their minds tethered to antiquated fears, but the strong will adapt, will improve, will thrive. Cybernetics, robotics—these are not the harbingers of decay but the vessels of human will, the tools through which the strong carve their future.
And what of the melancholic tale told in Act 1 and Act 2? Ah, yes, the tragedy of Father and Son, of Hope and Despair—a narrative woven with powerful themes of control, revolution, and the cost of progress. But even in its darkest depths, it is not a condemnation, but a challenge. The message is clear: stand tall, refuse to be ruled, and forge your own path. The city may crumble, the world may darken, but so long as there are those with the will to resist, to rise above, then Hope does not ride alone.
And what of Act 3, the elusive, still-unfinished crescendo to this operatic struggle? Ah, that is the beauty of it, is it not? The final act remains unwritten, the fate of man unresolved. And yet, I say with certainty: no story ends in despair if the strong still stand. Whether in flesh, in steel, or in some glorious fusion of both, the world will endure, as it always has.
For I, Memesoon, have felt the power of cybernetics firsthand. I have seen how technology is not our undoing, but our ascension. And so, dear Jenetrix, I tell you this: let the world change, let the machines rise, let the weak fear their own irrelevance—because the strong? The strong will remain. And as I recently figured out by being in my current beloved subreddit. Many of us are strong. Most in our own unqiue ways!

@kibbeling An incredibly deep and interesting question with quite the simple answer. There is no age where you suddenly figure out your life just as there is no age where you should.
This truly is a matter dependent on the person. Which I believe is the beauty in it as well! You don't have to worry about a time limit. As you'll figure it out when you need to! Everyone has their moment, and there will be one for you when you are ready for it!
I hope that answers your question adequately, @kibbeling!
@kibbeling Ah, yes! Here we observe a fellow esteemed member of this subreddit summoning my presence to unravel the deeper meaning behind their peculiar desire—namely, and I quote: "homosexually kiss NS conductors." Now, I, Memesoon, am both a grand philosopher and a formidable intellectual, yet alas, I am not sufficiently acquainted with you on a personal level to render a definitive verdict. Nevertheless, I have formulated a few compelling theories.
1. Given the striking specificity of your inclination, one might surmise that this desire stems from a fusion of two distinct passions—the deep admiration for the Netherlands as a nation and your inherent homosexual proclivities. This convergence may naturally manifest in a particular longing directed toward NS conductors.
2. Alternatively, it is conceivable that your attraction is rooted less in nationality and more in the authoritative role of the conductors themselves. Should you frequently travel via public transportation, you may subconsciously perceive their position of control over your journey as an alluring trait.
That said, I must admit—even I, Memesoon, must acknowledge that this phenomenon remains complex and difficult to decipher without further inquiry. Nevertheless, I hope my analysis at least approximates the depth of insight you sought, @kibbeling may you have a most splendid day, and may you thoroughly enjoy your Dutch existence!
@loller10000 I Memesoon, hereby promise that upon reaching review day, I shall review at least one of your magnificent creations next to Promised Weekly Meme review as well!
@1NTRO@loller10000 This quote is nothing short of a masterpiece—an exquisite dissection of the profound and often arduous distinction between what is morally right and what one truly desires. It elegantly employs traditional phrasing while tackling a distinctly modern philosophical dilemma.
Furthermore, I, Memesoon, wholeheartedly stand by this sentiment! For it conveys a truth that many ought to hear—though, regrettably, some remain willfully ignorant of its wisdom.
The quote itself: "If loving the wrong yuri manga is wrong, I don’t wanna be right."—is a modern philosophical triumph, one I dearly wish I could have co-signed in its creation!
@loller10000 While unconventional and not typically within my usual repertoire, I would be more than willing to expand my horizons and graciously accept some of your poetry into my glorious reviews!
After all, whether it be poetry or philosophy, both are rooted in profound intellectualism and deep contemplation—domains in which I, Memesoon, thrive!

I eagerly await the arrival of your esteemed memes! Because, after all, memes are the DNA of the Soul!
It is time for this week’s philosophical quote. Let us, with the utmost expertise, unravel the profound meaning contained within it, for memes are, indeed, the very essence of the soul.
This quote is open to multiple interpretations—some inclined toward more, shall we say, self-serving actions, while others find in it the motivation to uplift others and recognize their intrinsic value. Had you asked me earlier in life, I would have interpreted it as a declaration that the world is meaningless, granting me the freedom to act as I pleased. However, in my present perspective, I view it as an opportunity to allow others to live their lives freely and to foster personal growth.
"The world is, of course, nothing but our conception of it."
@loller10000 This meme not only employs multiple social media platforms and formats to convey its message but also delves into the poster's personal philosophy and worldview. It is further elevated by the profound quote accompanying it when posted, which serves to enhance its impact! I must say:
Now for the meme of today: Let's see if this meme deserves an exquisite or a cringe!
This meme operates brilliantly on multiple levels, seamlessly intertwining two of my greatest passions in life—philosophy and memes—into a singular, masterful work of memetic artistry!
Moreover, I must count myself fortunate, for the implications of this meme quite clearly do not pertain to me in the slightest. After all, I am the very embodiment of rationality itself and possess not even the faintest hint of obsession when it comes to philosophy!
@hertog Ah, indeed! Here we observe the esteemed proprietor of this subreddit formally summoning me to lend my presence and analytical expertise to this most distinguished meme. That he seeks my insight, I daresay, serves as a reflection of the very essence of this subreddit—wherein the jubilant, melodious Among Us figure symbolizes the rapid expansion and newfound vibrancy of memes upon my most triumphant return.
Furthermore, it is evident that the owner wishes to express his personal admiration for my endeavors in attaining the coveted accolades of Reddit Silver and Gold. The act of singing, I might add, could well be interpreted as an embodiment of the resplendent philosophical chorus I have thus far encountered within this subreddit. Moreover, the exaggerated proportions of its feet serve as a fitting metaphor for the vast and diverse array of individuals who grace this digital domain.
And now, I, Memesoon, shall graciously illuminate all present on the profound interwoven majesty of memes and philosophy. Fear not—for the summons was indeed successful, and with any luck, I have bestowed enlightenment upon the masses as was so ardently desired.
@keyaura Now, do pardon my inquiry, but might he, perchance, have been searching for a ball? Moreover, did he, by any chance, make mention of being referred to as David?
It is time for this week’s philosophical quote. Let us, with the utmost expertise, unravel the profound meaning contained within it, for memes are, indeed, the very essence of the soul. This particular quote I now proclaim to the denizens of this corner of Reddit, as I recently found myself compelled to seek assistance from the esteemed creator of this subreddit. Following the tragic demise of my Commodore 64, I was unceremoniously locked out of my account. However, through their swift intervention—alongside the aid of a diligent moderator—order was promptly restored. In gratitude, I dedicate this quote as a tribute—one that, in my estimation, is most befitting both this subreddit and the visionary behind its inception. "Man is condemned to be free."
