shameless career-grubbing, AI, networking or something, possibly necromancy
So I've developed an extremely dorky new hobby, apparently: asking OpenAI geography and history questions and fact-checking the results.
(e.g., "What are the three leading theories about the Sea Peoples" actually got a pretty accurate reply. "Which US comedian is responsible for the phrase 'chicken mambo dogpatch' got a very confident, detailed, "fact"-filled wrong guess.)
I swear I came by this hobby semi-honestly. I was doing research for an @anthracite co-project that's going to be a pretty vicious anti-AI satire.
But it also dawned on me, you know, there are probably people who are looking to *hire* people to do this very thing. Or there will be soon,. And fact-checking is basically what I already do for a living. And I'm apparently pretty fucking good at it, good enough that I'm now training people in it.
Should... I contact a recruiter or something? I'm not really looking to leave my current job, but I know it won't last forever and if this is gonna be the next Mildly Evil Thing I gotta do to make a living, I should start making contacts and educational plans now.
Sigh. Gonna be a spirit conjurer. What would my sweet Catholic grandma have thought?!
comedy sketch
This whole sketch me pleasantly of when Sifl and Olly used to cut back to the hosts in the middle of a conversation...

@Austin_Dern And it looks like their Google account has been hijacked by a leftist. Nice opsec, Trumpies! 🤣🤣🤣
re: uspol (+++?), homicidal psycho jungle cats (+++!!!)
@Austin_Dern Goodness, yes. And I think one of them, possibly MN as well, has some massive amount of debt as well?
Makes ya smile. :)
uspol (+++?), homicidal psycho jungle cats (+++!!!)
apparently one of trump's IT guys ratted on him after he ordered him to delete a bunch of security footage and they have hard phone and camera evidence
and two sumatran tiger cubs were just born at the san diego zoo.
there's so much i could complain about, but i'm still alive, the cats are healthy AFAIK, the ex-preznit looks pretty fucked, and there are two more of my stripey little cousins in the world. the good guys are ahead. good enough.
re: horny rubber renamon suit tf (NSFW)
@anthracite what if [REDACTED] does really well and we _get_ you one of those suits?
@anthracite soundtrack choice would be VERY VERY important for this game as discussed yesterday... hard as ice 1980s synthpop i presume, like, jan hammer kind of stuff

@anthracite I was originally hoping for something a little more... muted for the FOODCLOWN cafeteria architecture, but you know, I love this. I even want to keep "FOODCLOWN FUN HUT" ';cause it just captures the PURE LOVING BUT PATRONIZING PARENTAL DISDAIN the ~~terrifying monolithic AI oligarchy~~ clowns have towards their customers/tamagotchi/organic paperclips.
@001zlnv @anthracite That is an EXTREMELY good incorrect guess.
Or possibly just a premature one.
Or a retroactively correct one. 🤔

@spottyfox Listen, can't we just get beyond Thunderdome?
@kelseyhusky Happy bootday! <3
re: Emotionally drained
@JulieSqveakaroo Oh, darlin'... *HUG*
If it's any consolation, I want you to know that when I first saw the "emotionally drained" tag I had been just about to close the tab and did so anyhow by reflex... but something rose up in my brain and shouted "NO! YOU GO BACK! THIS IS FOR *JULIE*."
Far as I'm concerned you're doing everything right, because you're one of the sweetest and most comforting people I've had the pleasure of meeting online. You are successful in ways people like this can't appreciate and it's their loss. <3
@Filene And thank you!
@Filene Oh, the web comic? We have actually been right on the verge of giving up on the comics, but there's a tiny tiny tiny chance we might pick it up again as short animations someday!
