I was a DJ at 16. I had to watch the log to know when to play a commercial, I had to get so many PSAs in every 15 minutes, announce records, cue up records, and get the news feed run absolutely on time once an hour and read a news report once an hour. Pales in comparison to what an air traffic controller must do, but our shifts were 4 hours. I think air traffic controllers should also have 4 hour shifts. My little part-time job after school and on weekends gave me a headache every day I worked just from the stress, even though I absolutely loved the work!

I am a US citizen who's 66, disabled, and scared this administration is coming after me next. My daughter is paid by my Medicaid to care for me. Congress is about to take my health coverage and my daughter's income away. I wish more news services overseas would listen to her. I think all of them are treating Donald Trump as if he is a coherent, rational person who can be reasoned with. If you listen to this video, you might see him in an entirely new light, and how to deal with him. We are prisoners in our own country. I also think we are all underestimating AIs role in this past election, in many countries. Social media is a great outlet for propaganda. The people in my country are learning to question all their beliefs, because of Donald Trump. youtube mary trump politics donald trump psychologist analysis intelligent 

You CAN Write! 3 Things To Think About

Bill and the Whistling Death, by Viktoria Fyodorova, @croodsgirl on #Wattpad, is a must-read!  https://www.wattpad.com/story/385886325-bill-and-the-whistling-death A troubled veteran attempts to forget the past by volunteering at Patriots' Point Naval and Maritime Museum, but it proves difficult when he's close to the plane that changed his life forever--the Corsair.  It is the well-written story of Bill and his struggle with his disabilities long after the war ended. I cried at many points in the book, which is a testimony of this talented author's way with words!  Bill works at Patriot's Point Naval Museum, which I visited and loved many years ago.  https://www.patriotspoint.org Both my parents served in WWII in the Navy, so this story had a lot of meaning for me, though Bill flew his Corsair during the Korean War. I love history, but this family-friendly story is for anyone who loved a grandparent. The interaction between Bill, his grown #adopted #daughter, and th...

I'm building and training a personal hashtag # AI , using a hashtag # software called hashtag # AnythingLLM . With it, I can download any free, hashtag # opensource model I like, hashtag # nocoding required. I'm using hashtag # Chroma , a free database with good capacity. Now I can load my 650+ stories into Chroma, a process called embedding, and I can ask my AI questions about my characters, settings, and more. Since it's hosted on my PC, I don't have to worry about my data getting read by online AIs or chunks of my stories showing up in someone's AI answer.

I am using my personal AI to be my writing assistant! I'm in the process of putting all 650+ of my stories into this giant database so I can ask, "Which of my stories is x character in?" Or, "In which stories did I write about Elshar Mashai?" This is far better than trying to create a story database again, which I did in Microsoft Access years ago. Then Access changed its interface and besides, it was paid. By then, I switched to LibreOffice Base but it couldn't transfer my hundreds of queries. Without my queries, I was dead in the water! So I abandoned the project and went back to simple note files on my characters. I'm sure most writers have no interest or time to create a massive database like I did. Now, you don't have to! If you have a lot of interconnected stories, this is a game-changer! There's a lot of controversy about AI as far as writers or any creative folks. Let me make this clear. I will not be using AI to write my books. But, I ca...
