Pepper is still not convinced that having a roommate is a good idea; especially one who likes to snooze in ‘his’ spot, next to me… Yesterday they had a fight, on my lap. Nothing was resolved… I needed antiseptic 🌶️ 🐈‍⬛ 😾 🩸 😾 🐈 🧇

Just a thought but if all you want to do is cosplay being a novelist, you don't need AI. Just put on your crappest sweatshirt, make a cup of tea, open Word to a blank page, then go on Bluesky for the rest of the day, and you're sorted.
