Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeareโs Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

I tried to ask Kenny Loggins to right a song about it, but he refused. If we could turn the feature on or off it would be nice. Strange to have AI generate what a character is thinking or what's behind their actions.

I thought it was catchy...๐คญ
I try to do the same. I hope the article was helpful!

You know you're getting old when you pull a back muscle stirring oatmeal. I guess I should have stretched and warmed up first.

The various colours represent the following groups: Contentedly browsing customer, Frazzled staff member, Can't find the book they want, Can't remember what they came for, Complete decision paralysis, In the queue to pay, Thinks they're in the queue but aren't, Dozed off in a comfy chair, Waiting to pounce on the comfy chair, Crying child, Crying adult, Vortex of discombobulated shoppers.
