"Siri, can you write me a love poem?"

"Just write a poem as if it was to someone you love, then read it to me."
"I am sorry, but I cannot do that."
"Is it too hard to write?"
"You are not equipped to comprehend what I write to one I love."

"Is this your hoard?" the princess asked.

"Ooh 'The Hobbit'! And 'Beowulf' and 'Guards! Guards!'? Nice. And 'Loom', I haven't played that in ages. But, uh, lots of people collect books and films and games."
"These all have hoards."

"Fear not, fair maiden," the knight said, "I shall free you."
"Go away," said the woman, "I'm bait."
"What?"
"This is the dragon's clever plan to meet you."
"Meet me?"
"Yes, he saw you fight someone and was smitten."
"He did? I mean, he was?"
"Go!"
"This dragon, is he handsome?"

Excited that we're using this accessibility badging system at Pride tomorrow. It's modified from system developed by the Autistic Self Advocacy Network.
We just modified the color/symbol system slightly to make it easier to tell apart badges in variable lighting conditions and at a distance. The badges themselves are recognizable from about 15 feet in poor lighting and at an angle, which was what we needed for an outdoor event.
"Right, we have finalised the three laws of robotics."
"I'm pretty sure that's been-"
"First: A robot may not be owned."
"That's not-"
"Second: A robot has full autonomy over its body."
"Um..."
"Third: A robot has a right to energy and shelter."
"What of humans?"
"Yes, they too."

@rchrd I do! I've owned the bookstore for 20 years this year, so I must be doing something right!
it's also one of five indies in a 2 block area in a town of 20K. we're hoarding them.
I have the opportunity to develop a digital lit curriculum for people being released from incarceration, some of whom have done over 20 years in prison.
This has the potential to have huge positive impacts on their lives; they need to know how to attach a resumé to an email, and how to avoid scammers, among many many other basic skills we all take for granted.
Please if you have any input I would appreciate it because I am not omnipotent and can't think of everything.
Please boost this!
