No need to thank me, the economy.

I worked Back of House at a department store and I consistently didn't have to talk to customers. Lifting boxes and sorting merchandise is physically demanding, however.

Long nails will never make sense to me, on a good day I bump into things and hit my hand on stuff, I just imagine impaling myself or them all flying off at the same time somehow.

I try not to judge, but having 6 inch long colorful fingers is justsomething that I don't get. like, how you do stuff? Like scroll on your phone or type. I imagine it's like using stilts, but I don't know.

I'm not trying to insult people who have their nails done, it's just a thing I wonder

If you're a loner, or someone who is used to little interaction or interactions only happening through texting, email, etc. LLMs are tempting in that they don't take much more effort to say stuff to than modes of communication you're already used to, with immediate feedback that give you a little rush at first, but wears off.

I've tried a few times. All it does is agree with you and spit the same turns of phrase, the same formats, etc. right back at you. it's a mimicry of a perfect echo chamber that will repeat itself and never tell you to stop talking to it.

But when you close the app, you're alone with your thoughts. That is a scary, scary thing for people.

edit: like people say, it's generative, it's literally making an impression of what people say. I always remember this and then it's like, oh I'm talking to a pile of pillows that looks like a person from just this angle.

thinking about social interactions

Like it'll be someone recording someone bugging them and not leaving them alone and they caption something to the effect of "omg doesn't he realize I'm uncomfortable"

And as much as I'm like, "leave this person alone holy shit", part of me always wonders, what if the person doesn't know?

That's my nightmare, making someone uncomfortable and not picking up on it. The other person the rest of their day is like "Wow that creep" and I think the interaction went well. That person is just gonna go and creep more people out unintentionally, right??

Most people would probably say it isn't your job to educate others. I am the type of person who would rather explain every misinterpretation and work through each misunderstanding though, because the logical part of my brain wants to avoid negative social outcomes and I see meta conversations as a way to work through that collaboratively.

But I mean, if they're a perv, tell them to leave.

fighting some sinus stuff (climate have mercy lmao) but gonna have a good week.
