║ apparently if you don't have a job, you don't get a home. what if I don't want │
║ a job? do I not want a home? clearly I want a home, and clearly I don't want a │
║ job. I'd work one if one came to me, but I'm not gonna sacrifice my blood on │
║ the altar of Moloch just so I can have a place to stay. │
║ │
║ if you don't want a job, but you DO want a home, then there's a contradiction │
║ in the function of the system and the needs of it's end-users. │
║ │
║ unless of course, the system is not designed for it's end-users? In this case, │
║ tenants. Who then would it be designed for? Who else is part of the equation? │
║ │
║ well, perhaps it's designed to maximize profit and shareholder value yaddah │
║ yaddah all that jazz. Who can say. Surely not I. But someone might. │
║ │
║ If so, then why are we, who are not shareholders of profit value, still playing │
║ the game that's not designed for us or by us? Isn't this country "of the │
║ people, for the people, and by the people"? What does that mean to you? │
║ │
║ I think it means houses for people. │

║ is it conservative to think that "wildness", once lost, is forever broken? │

║ did you know that was thirty years ago? │

║ anyway now we have catgirls and cute dogs and other animals besides. Just go │
║ hang out at a queer bar and you might meet them. │
║ │
║ where else would they go? queerness is for everyone. Nothing about it is sacred │
║ because nothing about it is required to be the same. You are different than he, │
║ so he and she can be as the please. │
║ │
║ so now, in a sense, our biological nature is altered by animals in return. │
║ │
║ if there were no cats, there would be no cats. │
║ │
║ if there were no pink and purple flying people eaters, there would be no... │

this is all it takes to send a message to a local LLM.
add a third function to get chatbot functionality.
a fourth to get a database storing method
(even if it's just in .txts)
great, you've mastered the technical difficulty in using AI. Now you gotta
learn all the other kind of programming so you can use this for situations that
need interpretation moment to moment.
aka active duty systems.
something like "output a 0 if the next text is [category.iter()]: " +
output.get_content() + " \n\n output a 1 if the next text is [category.iter()]:
" + output.get_content()"
or even "describe this thing as most like one of these characteristics" until
eventually you get THX-1138 if the characters were computers.
