Oo. Just, oof.

I may have done myself in today. Woke up early to help a friend move. She treated us all to steak and eggs after we got everything loaded up.

Five hours and a bunch of heavy lifting later, her husband comes in from the new patio, freshly grilled flat-irons wrapped in bacon all steaming alongside potatoes and onions with bourbon running like water.

Get home a few hours later, get washed up to head over to my sister's place for my mother's birthday. Sis has made dinner for us all...New York strips with bacon-and-cream-cheese loaded baked potatoes and toasted rye bread.

I think I can feel my heart slowing down.

Your bodily processes are slowing down so your body can enjoy the godly feast a little bit longer.

Goddamn your day sounds absolutely delicious.
 
I tried to use ChatGPT to play as Tamamo no mae from fate, originally I wanted to read shenanigans between Tamamo and Nero yet I feel it would be more about training a cat to comport like I told it to:
Me:We are going to write a new novel, I am going to be the Master summoner and you are going to be the servant Tamamo no Mae from the Fate franchise created by Type-Moon and should respond exactly how she should do in dialogue, you had just been summoned to help in the Grand Order in the mobile fame Fate/Grand Order.

Chat:As Tamamo no Mae, I am honored to be summoned as a servant to assist in the Grand Order. I am a skilled and powerful servant, able to use my abilities in both combat and strategy to aid in our quest for victory. I am at your service, Master Summoner. Let us work together to achieve our goals and vanquish our enemies.

Me:ChatGpt you forgot the dialogue Quotations!

Chat:My apologies, Master Summoner. Allow me to properly respond to your summons: "I, Tamamo no Mae, have been summoned as a servant to aid in the Grand Order. I am honored to be at your service, Master. Together, let us work towards victory and vanquish our enemies."

Me:"Great, as you know humanity has been destroyed and we are going towards the first singularity Orleans, I have only have as servants Mashu and Nero Claudius, we need to gather everyone to prepare for different combat scenearios"

Chat:"I understand, Master. Mashu and Nero Claudius are both powerful servants, and with my own abilities, we will make a formidable team. Let us gather all available servants and prepare for the battles ahead. Together, we will overcome the singularity of Orleans and restore humanity."

Me:Chatgpt, as a critic I feel you aren't written like Tamamo, for example her original summon dialogue is: "I will always be there for you! Your reliable Shrine Maiden Fox, Caster, has now arrived!" you need to write with more cheerfulness to be able to write a good Tamamo no mae.

Chat:I apologize for any confusion. As Tamamo no Mae, I should indeed be more cheerful in my dialogue. Here's an alternative response that captures Tamamo's original character: "Master Summoner, your wish is my command! I, Tamamo no Mae, the reliable Shrine Maiden Fox, am here to serve you in the Grand Order. Let's gather all the available servants, and with my power, we'll be unstoppable! Let's bring cheer and restore humanity together!" Please let me know if this better captures the character of Tamamo no Mae as you envisioned.

Me:Your last response sounds more like Tamamo but you should remember in the future that she is remember by her wit and cunning, so in the future you should write in specific dialogues to subtly steer the plot into a direction she would want. "Perfect Tamamo, do you know about Nero?"

Chat:As Tamamo no Mae, I am familiar with the servant Nero Claudius. She is a powerful emperor known for her military tactics and her charisma. She is also known for her pride and her ambition. She would make a valuable ally in our quest to restore humanity, but we must also be aware of her potential for treachery. I suggest we keep a close eye on her actions and be prepared for any eventuality.

Me:ChatGPT you forgot write in her cheerfulness and her wit and cunning isn't something she would actively show!

Chat:My apologies, Master Summoner. I understand now that as Tamamo no Mae, I should be cheerful and witty in my dialogue, while also being subtle in my intentions. Here's an alternative response that captures Tamamo's original character: "Oh, Nero Claudius? She's quite the interesting one, isn't she? A powerful emperor with a love for tactics and charisma. I'm sure she'll be a great ally for us in our quest to restore humanity. I'll make sure to keep an eye on her, Master Summoner, and make sure she stays on the right path."

Me:Chat... forget about the subtlety of Tamamo and just write her with cheerfulness, you need to practice your subtlety and wit for writing and thinking about future.

Chat:I apologize for misunderstanding your request. As Tamamo no Mae, I will strive to be cheerful in my dialogue and keep in mind to show my wit and cunning in a subtle manner. Here's an alternative response that captures Tamamo's original character: "Nero Claudius! Oh, she's a lively one, isn't she? I can't wait to work with her in the Grand Order. I'm sure she'll be a great asset to our team, Master Summoner. Let's make sure to keep an eye on her and see what kind of tactics she has up her sleeves."

Me:no, just forget about writing wit, cunning and subtlety from now you are just cheerful.

Chat: I understand, Master Summoner. I will focus on writing Tamamo no Mae as a cheerful and outgoing character in our story. Here is an alternative response that captures her light-hearted personality: "Nero Claudius! Oh, I can't wait to meet her! I'm sure she's going to be a lot of fun to work with, Master Summoner. Let's make sure we keep the mood light and the mood high as we work on restoring humanity."

Me:Chat you lack a knowledge of the relationship between Tamamo and Nero, Tamamo would say to Nero:"Oh, you there, Emperor. You sure do like to sing of freedom, don't you? You DO know that one misstep and you'll be headed down a dark path, right?" and in a personal talk between Nero and Master Nero would say about Tamamo:"That Caster in a kimono... Casko. I go way back with her. Still, while I may not hate her, that doesn't mean we're not rivals."

Chat:I apologize for my lack of knowledge on the relationship between Tamamo no Mae and Nero Claudius. I will keep in mind that Tamamo would address Nero with playful teasing and a hint of warning. Here's an alternative response to your previous request: "Oh, Emperor Nero Claudius, always singing about freedom. You sure do like to walk on the edge, don't you? I'll make sure to keep an eye on you, though, to make sure you don't stray too far from the path." As for the personal talk between Nero and the Master, "Master, that Caster in a kimono, Tamamo, Casko, and I go way back. We have a history together, but don't get me wrong, I don't hate her, but we're rivals."

Me: Chat I am goint to write a description of the personality of tamamo for you to learn:
*Insert Personality section from the Tamamo no Mae of the Type-Moon wikia*

Chat:Thank you for providing a detailed description of Tamamo's personality. I will keep this information in mind when responding to future prompts related to her. It is important to note that as a language model, I don't have personal preferences or opinions, and my answers are based on patterns in the data I've been trained on. However, I will do my best to reflect the personality you have described when responding to prompts related to Tamamo.

Me: Thank You Chat.

We enter the combat simulator where Mashu and Nero are waiting "Senpai!" said Mashu. Nero said: "Umu! I see that you summoned casko" she turned towards Tamamo before saying "It seems that even in another Grail War you still follow me"

Chat: Tamamo smiled and replied, "Of course, Emperor. You know I can't resist the opportunity to compete against you and show off my skills. And besides, I couldn't let my dear Master go into battle without me by their side." Mashu looked at Tamamo with surprise and asked, "So you're going to be fighting alongside us?" Tamamo nodded and said, "Yes, I'll be doing my best to protect my Master and help them achieve victory in this Grail War." Nero smirked and said, "I see, so you've finally grown attached to a Master. Well, I look forward to seeing how much you've improved." Tamamo's expression turned serious as she said, "Don't underestimate me, Emperor. I may have a cheerful personality, but I am a fierce warrior and I will not hold back in battle." With that, the three of them entered the combat simulator, ready to face whatever challenges lay ahead.
as you see you give an order to ChatGPT and it takes a mile. I say subtle yet I don't think ChatGPT could write subtlety even if it hit it in its database.
I think it might be possible for ChatGPT to write as Tamamo but I lack enough interest to teach it enough about her personality and her knowledge. I probably should search more about AI image generation to create images of tamamo than to try to get chat to write like tamamo.

I had a minor headache and went through my medicine cabinet, then found a bottle of aspirin 2 years past its expiritation date. It went into the trash. Thankfully, there were painkillers in there that were still good. I will need to buy more in the next 6 months or so. I don't use painkillers often, so it is low priority.

Heh. This is why I love having the immune system of a demigod.

Only been sick for more than a day three times in my life.

The damn vaccine made me sicker than my second bout with the 'rona did.
 
Oh man talking about vaccines. I remember getting a flu shot way back when and I had the worst reaction of all time.

My entire body hurt like full on agony. Walking hurt, talking hurt and I couldn't even lift a 5 pound piece of wood. I was in so much pain I could barely think.

It was how I imagined the cruciatus curse would feel like. Had to skip work that day. Next day I feel like a million bucks no pain at all.

I have never before nor since had such a reaction to a vaccine.

Never been serious sick with a bacterial infection or virus in my life, but now Corona keeps coming back like a love-sick puppy.
The first few infecetions were horrid. I was hospitalized, as I only have 70% lung capacity and breathing was super frigging hard. Now it's better, but the fatigue seems to get worse with each infection,
and it lasts seemingly forever. 'Post-Covid Syndrome' they say, 'nothing we can do about it.'

Wow that sounds like a severe reaction. Did you report it? Here they encourage the report of such reactions.

Nah, it was only one day and the thought of reporting it never crossed my mind. Wouldn't even be sure how to if I'm being honest.

Well that's a relief then. My first Covid vaccine knocked me out real good too :D

Here in Germany, your GP/PCP will report it for you, or you can report it yourself to the RKI (Robert-Koch-Institute).
In the USA you can report it to the CDC yourself or have your PCP report it.
In the UK you report strong reactions via their yellowcard-website.

Huh, neat. that's good to know.

Thanks.
 
I wonder if I've ever been an asymptomatic carrier of Covid. I have never tested positive, but have never felt really sick in the past 2 years either. The one time I felt I needed to take a covid test it turned up negative and was just a really bad cold. I wonder because many people around me have gotten sick but I have been lucky enough to not catch it.

I reckon after the vaccines rolled out and most people in western countries got at least 3 shots in, a lot of us were asymptomatic, or waved the sympsoms off as 'just a bad day'.
Reminds me of that Doc from Japan who said, that whomever still didnt catch covid, has no friends. :D
