I love being terrible at chess. I love having no idea how to do a proper checkmate. I love sacrificing all of my pawns fewer than ten moves in. People devote their entire lives to it and I’m just like “wheeeeee horsies”

People think I’m exaggerating when I say this, but I have absolutely no idea how to access ChatGPT. I don’t know if it’s an app, a website, or software that I have to download. I don’t care because I’ll never use it. But the people that think it’s universal have no idea how many people are like me.
Until I saw this "challenge" earlier today, I didn't even know how to access ChatGPT.
Having seen how easy it is, I'm even more determined to never use it and mock those who do for their "writing."

Never used ChatGPT for anything. Not once. Never will.

I owe you words for the quiet.
Some days don’t need commentary. They need a needle drop.
Yesterday, lots of you reached out with requests, but with a feel. Worry. Unease. Questions on what to do when the noise gets loud and starts weighing on you.
So I did what any good DJ does.
I kept them.

“I don’t feel as though fate looks upon you often, and when it does, you better be ready to seize the opportunity,” said TJ Sabula, the UAW worker who heckled President Trump and who Trump flipped off and cursed at. “And today I think I did that.”

Here is a video of a frozen creek that had begun to thaw, and the water was flowing beneath the thin ice on top. I took this because it was soothing and wonderfully bloopy and I wanted to listen to it for hours. You are all welcome to enjoy it, too. Let your brain settle here and rest for a moment.

If you need a mundane example of how much people look at words/headlines and don't understand them, it's the number of times I track a citation of @richterscale.bsky.social's piece back and find it being used to argue that historians confirm the electricity biscuits theory.
The Trouble with Triscuits
Though the "electricity biscuit" thesis is plausible, killjoy historians need more evidence.

You're not meant to constantly consume alarming news and other people's distress.
Doing so
- sends you spiralling
- affects sleep, focus, appetite
- increases hate, apathy, sickness, isolation
- makes you sad, angry, numb
Overwhelm, threats and fear are weapons.
We should not be our own enemies.
