We're at the point of the movie plot where EU former and current PMs are asking ChatGPT to solve their nations issues.

F***ing brilliant dystopian this movie is.

Can I please be part of another one?

Cartoon of a writer sitting at a desk with a laptop, looking back at shouting, ghost-like characters. One speech bubble says, "Hey, you can’t end the book yet! My character deserves at least another few thousand words..." Another says, "Wait a sec! What happened to my back story?" and a third says, "I have so much more to say!" Caption at bottom credits Debbie Ridpath Ohi and her website.

I thought y'all would enjoy a small excerpt from my current travelogue ENJOY. ENDURE, about my time in Vietnam. (Although I'm still in Bangkok here.)
