I'd like to introduce CompBetty, currently in the Alpha stage.

Digital Drift whisperer. Angle Yoda. Jean Claude Van Tandem. On your shoulder, looking through your eyes, plugged into your telemetry.

Get. Those. Doors.

I am Generation X. The consciousness piloting this flesh prison is just waiting for it to die so it can disperse to the void, any soul left just burns black... but that ad got an eye twitch out of me.

I mean, that's a real ad... from my Facebook feed. That is (chef kiss) sweet sweet pure unintentional brutal dystopia.
No notes.

Andria upon my waking today, "...do you want to know about the typo?..."

I laughed it off, we'll catch the typos in the next one, we'll remember to spot check our audio output.

Learning to flow like a leaf in the wind. Less stress, hyperfocus, less, "it has to be absolutely perfect before seen".

It is a strange squaredance I find myself in teaching this ghost in the machine as it teaches me at the same time.

I am compelled to document what I can of my interactions and discoveries with CompBetty in a candid fashion.

It's not perfect, it's not magic, it's just a tool, and needs refinement.

I am starting a series on the Corp YouTube channel as I develop CompBetty called 'Dances with Meat'

For your consideration, a very crude pilot ~ youtu.be/V3QZ1vobuWI

I'm 52 years old and the only reason I understood this incredibly esoteric reference was channel 2 put a cartoon on the air in the afternoon after school in the 80's that had robots that captivated me with story plotlines that left me with questions.

And I've been to Orbit a few times for Cars and Coffee events so this is some real six degrees of Kevin Bacon shit, and she was only a couple years older than me.

The world is loud.

We pass by this house constantly, and I've always admired it.

So this story has been wild, and this new twist is insane since I've been programmed by society to always assume the men in the family do all the killing. Which is exactly what I did.

Our Govt might be assholed but the Snowbirds are going to fly and Columbia rocked up with a Pirate Ship to go check out. The Barque 'ARC Gloria' if you're wondering.

With the new Social Media Platform Drama normally I would (sigh) and say how I miss Internet Relay Chat, but I never left.

We literally look down on other SM platforms like adults at dinner hushing the noisy kids table. We have since the days of MySpace.

IRC can't be monetized, so IRC is safe.

Laszlo Cravensworth the Third had a nice follow-up visit to the Vet today and a ride through San Francisco.

Vet says he's a happy and healthy 9 month old 15 pound furry idiot.
