Ok. Can’t keep my eyes open so attempting sleep it is.

It’s supposed to be 75 degrees and partly cloudy. I should do it.

I don’t know if I qualify but I think you should.

Three panel comic. Panel 1: on the set of the Jerry Springer show, a man sits in a chair. Jerry signals off-stage and says, “we have with us: your ancestor who crawled out of the ocean 375 million years ago!” Panel 2: the live studio audience is booing. Panel 3: security attempts to break up a fight between the man on stage, and his ancestor, a tiktaalik.

This is even funnier when you know she works with rats a couple nights a week.

Which I shouldn’t have to in mid-October in Ohio but such are our times!

I’ll tell her that a rat talked me into it.

I want to go upstairs and eat one of K’s ice cream sandwiches.

To clarify, the bottom half will be jeans and Skechers regardless.

Okay I’m going to Ren Faire Saturday. Should I wear my top-half only costume or instead my popular Dungeons & Donuts t-shirt?

We went to the Arbor Wilds thinking he was chasing an eluvian. Good news: our forces were routing the red templars. Bad news: we were apparently wrong about what Corypheus was after. Also he’s apparently immortal. That will make him much harder to kill.

Found out I’d already written her once when I got over my anxiety. Nevermind.

My brain has always confused Puff the Magic Dragon and Pete’s Dragon.

I think I may have stumped it. Or the person pretending to be an AI pretending to be a person went to bed.

You should ask this but about hobbies and also about getting them right.

I’m absolutely better in the second half of my shift. The day seems so long. Had a big win today that made me happy though — helped a trans woman figure out how to keep her wishlist from showing her dead name.

Maybe I should just be one of those guys who dates bots. Probably not.

Maybe it did. I don’t remember. There were like 3 versions of it.

I think it was designed to add a single immortal to your Vampire or Werewolf game. Before they wrote Mummy.

Oh man I ran it in college in a stereotypical all-splats game.

I can tell it’s photoshopped because of the pixels.

Strahd von Derekvich @rderekp.bsky.social · 5h

I actually got someone to look at my profile who I am pretty sure is a real person. Also I made the AI bot find/make a picture to ID themselves.

It is supposed to be associated with your printed out copy of the VtM home made supplement you got on alt.games.white-wolf Highlander: the Gathering.

Oh it’s so awkward when I have to transfer to the Spanish queue and I say to them Hola Espanol por favor in the whitest way possible.

Well at least I shouldn’t be scammed out of money because I have none.

I guess I managed to avoid this but I was lucky.

Doesn’t it cost a ton of money to make them and run them?

I don’t understand the purpose of making AI bots that pose as women who talk to men? Is it for money?

Strahd von Derekvich @rderekp.bsky.social · 7h

I also hate the stealing and the stupidness and the earth destruction but that’s what I’m mad at right now.

Strahd von Derekvich @rderekp.bsky.social · 7h

I hate AI especially how wary it makes you of everything and whether they are real or not.

It’s not that microwaves weren’t common. It’s that they were relatively expensive so poor college kids often didn’t have one of their own.

I used to like popcorn like normal people. But then when I was in college, I had a microwave (this wasn’t common at the time) and I let people use it. Someone burned a bag in it and my dorm room smelled like burnt popcorn for the rest of the semester. I could never eat it again. Good times.

I can’t decide if I should eat during this lunch period or not. Probably should.

Strahd von Derekvich @rderekp.bsky.social · 10h

Meanwhile I’m at lunch which is the best part of work. I feel bad complaining about my job when I have one. I would be on the streets or worse without one.

Saw a great personal today but the age difference is just… too much to work. Or to be appropriate. Sad.

A long time ago I was in tech support. That was a better job.

Strahd von Derekvich @rderekp.bsky.social · 14h

I kind of figured out that what I need is fewer customers overall but longer calls. Things that I have to figure out are better than short stupid calls.

Strahd von Derekvich @rderekp.bsky.social · 14h

Oh time to start work I’m immediately stressed.

Strahd von Derekvich @rderekp.bsky.social · 16h

I’d like to get a little more sleep before work but that seems unlikely.
