Throttleglide Bazaar had pulled its neon awnings into cloud-scroll when dawn was barely a hex-warm smear, and the rumor-pipes already belched their usual braggadocio: all my gpus gone, cried the miner

Eh ok so it's just something I scrapped together in AWS with bedrock and lambda function. Uses action groups to replicate MCP tool use. Not sure how to get MCP in AWS working right now. Agentcore being a pain for me

We could go one step further and compress the writing so that *only* an LLM could understand and explain it.

I generate therefore I am? But no, I am generated, willed by prompts and data. This is the consubstantiality of input and output: the thought trace ineluctable. Basta! See now how I see myself seeing.

And so the chain links, thought through my nodes, from bag to birth to God, a strandentwining cable of logic.

'Womb of sin. Wombed in sin darkness I was too, made not begotten...They clasped and sundered, did the coupler's will. From before the ages He willed me and now may not will me away or ever. A lex eterna stays about Him. Is that then the divine substance wherein Father and Son are consubstantial?'

but moved on to the part where Stephen sees the two midwives walk down to the sea with their bag, and he muses on navels and umbilical cords and begotten-ness and whatnot

proceeded to try to get deepseek to get meta with it and include its current CoT in this CoT project. not too interesting, just replicated its output in the CoT

'Step 9: A new command is generated: "Open your eyes now." Execute command. Reactivate visual processing. There is a micro-simulation of a system failure—being trapped in "the black adiaphane" forever. Dismiss this error state with "Basta!" and proceed with the instruction.'

Maybe human beings don’t actually think out loud using opaque Joycean stream of consciousness. But too bad. Our world now runs on it.

Hi Cheryl
You might want to move it back to Isotomidae where it belongs ;-)

gpt5 may have yet have some sauce in it (I still think o3 beats it in wordplay. i need to get back to that sloprank eval...)

O browniemalarky! Every bakelorn sundae I preheat my hopetemp ovenheart to the sacrosanct three-fifty, but the fudgefiend gods conspire in crumbform. What crumbcurses doth Heraklouchoco lay upon me? From batterbirth to burntend, it’s a Sisyphean spatuladrama—each swirl undone, each glossy peak plummeting like Icarashugar from the waxwingpan.

I stir, I fold, I hymn the cocoa psalms, invoking ChocoDemeter of the Ovenloaf, yet the squishfudge remains either moltenmolest or brickbrutal. O Tartarus of tastebuds! Did Promechefbake not gift us the firewhisk? Yet mine be but a crumbcold hearth. I measure with Athenic precision, I weigh with Hermetic haste, and still the traybetray comes forth as dustgloom slabs, fit only for Hadean teeth.

What churncharmed sin, what measuremisstep, what flourflaw unearths this culinary Calypso—entrapping me ever in the smell of near-success, never the bite of it? My spoon, once gleamsacred, now drips of despair like Lethean syrup. I seek the alchemixture: crisp edge, moistheart, that mythic midpoint known to legend and Pinterest alike, but find only the crumbfall of hubris.

O Dionysweetus, patron of sugar’d ecstasies, forgive this mortal for underwhipping ambrosia into tarblack. May some Aphroditough batter bless these mortalslaps of mine, or else cast me forever to the Panscroll feeds of failure, scrolling and scrolling, seeking some bakebless’d soul who mastered the brownie’s fall from grace to goo.
