the act of making art has other benefits, regardless of who's there to evaluate it upon completion. So, yes, still make art. Plus, there's at least 1 to still view the art, enough if you subscribe to that definition of art.

I don't know... I've come up with music I thought was artistic, but was convinced otherwise when it had an audience. It must not work that way.
you'll need to leave something behind when evolution starts again and when the world is inhabited once again ...they can see your art work on the wall of your apartment and call it post holocaust artifacts
Step 1: Research on how to survive a human Apocalypse (library, book stores, etc)
Step 2: Stock up on Duct Tape (mythbusters anyone?)
Step3: Dedicate the rest of my existence combing the world in search of anything SEINFELD related and destroying it piece by piece if only for the slight chance intelligent life exists outside of our planet and they may someday visit and scan all artifacts left behind. God I hate that show. Wouldn't want our new visitors to leave with a sour taste in there mouths.

I'd finally get that lake house and boat that I've always wanted. Then I'd drive my new beer truck home and go fishing.
There is a sshort story in Chuck Palahniuk's 'Haunted' where man discovers that when we die on Earth our souls travel to Venus, which is a Paradise, and that when a new life is born on Earth a soul is pulled down from Venus to inhabit that body. Of course the gov gets involved in the idea that we should all die so that we can all live in Paradise. Gov starts ordering mass killings and providing suicide kits and whatnot. They try and stop anyone from giving birth in order that we all remina on Venus. The story ends with one of the few remaining families on Earth getting ready to kill themselves, but their teenaged daughter stays behind and goes to meet the neighbor boy, whose child she is carrying.
"Apollonius of Tyana held, that birth and death are only in appearance; that which separates itself from the one substance (the on Divine essence), and is caught up by matter, seems to to be born; that, again, which releases itself from the bonds of that matter, and is reunited with the one Divine Essence, seems to die." (from Pike's 'Morals & Dogma)
An interesting perspective, if nothing else.
The end justified the means.
So long as you enjoyed it!
Fishing, sure. Catching, not so much.
I'm not much of a fisherman, but it seems to me completely eliminating the POSSIBILITY of catching something kind of ruins it.
Had he wanted to do anything else with his time but read he'd probably have been alright...
Yes. Reading was the desire of his heart. Of all things. I would be traveling the Pacific Coast to S America.
The Bugatti wasn't in the window this morning. I wonder if someone bought it or if it's getting a pedicure.

Meh, I read the OP as if you're the last human alive. Honestly, if there was NOTHING left I'd off myself pretty quickly.
I see the rules in the OP have changed as of yesterday afternoon. All mammals are gone, but everything else is still alive. This changes the game dramatically.
I take it that includes birds and reptiles insects and fish? You guys are good then, but Im golden!
At least there's fish and fowl for ya'll. Good luck finding some BBQ. (BBQ Chicken dont count!)
