When they speak of fulfillment
They’ll say enchillment

You can! And this reminds me of I haven’t heard 141 yet…

Endurance by Alfred Lansing

From my experimentation, I find that Generative AI is at its best when making fun of us. Of people, of society, our strivings, habits, and self image.

It has a talent for amplifying our foibles and failures.

I'm not sure about what this means, whether it is a good, or a bad thing. Neither?

Mayo man. Taga diin ikaw?

I have plenty. I may have to try it

A lotta nerve or
A Mirror for Observers
And useless fervors

Line art from a comic book. One silhouetted figure slugs another in the stomach. The background is all yellow, a row of spectators gathered around the fighters. The caption across the top reads “BRINGING A GUN TO A FISTFIGHT!” One of the spectators says, “Don’t listen to that dame, Joe. I been wit ya from the starta your career. Don’t I make sure they take all the butterscotch disks outta the candy dish in ya dressing room?”

Why is a bank robber giving up so easily in the middle of a gunfight? Why did he bring a crowd of people to cheer him on? Who chose the snacks to sell at this spectacle? Listen to find out!

Sometimes, in my car, I reach for the 30 sec replay button to hear something again on the radio…

Some people talk too much.

Other people say too much.

There is a difference.

It’s actually a pretty good opening line for a story

I also use both OSs, Windows and Linux. Honestly the Windows gives more trouble.

Musical chairs before recorded music

Zorin looks great. I’ve always used Mint, and Ubuntu a bit.
