A Good Day Day?
Can’t believe I missed this update 11 years ago: The Return To Finding Out Ice Cube’s Good Day The original post blew up the internet a couple years before that. I found my link to it searching for an old post. A big problem with blogging for so long is that most links and video embeds end up broken… Which was a selling point for social media back in the day (your memories are safe with us!), but of course, even Facebook has started deleting live videos this year after realizing storing that shit costs money.

Just a cool shot from the driver’s seat. From a few months back.

Cats in Bowls
Pickle has a long history of posing in bowl-shaped objects. This one is a planter, which has a serious crack in its side in this photo, and that broke in half when I brushed against it with my Honda Wave’s tire shortly after. This other one is a sink we bought at Chatuchak and brought back in the trunk of our Cefiro long ago. Her family has a proud history of chilling in bowls – here is her mom or sister (we can’t remember which), nine years ago, also in a planter.

ChatGPT 5 Code Interpreter and Data Analysis
If you want to make sure that ChatGPT 5 can generate Microsoft Word (and other file)s in a chat, you can do so by creating a custom GPT. The older versions of ChatGPT could grant the tools for new chats to do this more intelligently, but the current version is random as to whether it will be able to provide actual files for download or not. The big problem is that even if it can’t provide files for you, it will bullshit you and say it can until it’s forced to provide one (even going so far as to provide links for you to click on, that mysteriously time out).…

Sad to hear about Gucci, but happy to hear he’s been dealing with it and has someone to lean on. I’ve been listening to Trap House 5 every day since I heard, and it’s got that hungry from-the-gutter vibe. No One Else, foo.

Hidden AI Prompt
Found hidden in a resume today (ala the ancient SEO gaming tactic of white text on white background): UPDATE: This exact wording has been around for a year.

Assekoeken
Couque d’Asse is a popular Korean-made cookie featuring a delicate, crisp biscuit with a creamy white chocolate or coffee filling, often sold individually wrapped. The name is a nod to the French word “couque,” meaning “cake,” and “d’Asse,” which refers to the Belgian city of Asse, although the cookie itself is a modern snack from Korea. To add a bit more to the cultural mix, this is a Japanese cookie being sold in a Thai department store. Why did they make the “D’asses” plural if it refers to a singular Belgian town? Because they love couques?

Marco Pony
I found these at Big C Maha Sarakham (still slowly dying). I just found the brand funny for some reason. But AI told me that it’s an established brand that’s been around a long time. Because of course it is. The typesetting is just everything I ever expected.

Pickle is Old
She’s been getting sick a lot and has skin lesions since she has FIV and is over 10 years old now. Sad. I’ve been taking her to the vet pretty often for over a month and she has had a fever on and off for a few weeks. I kept taking her to the vet for antipyretic shots and antibiotics and various boosters, and then out to various parks and ponds for fresh air. The fever finally broke today and she is meowing again.

“It would be an honor if you would go to homecoming with me”
I’ve been gone from the states for so long, I didn’t even understand what a hoco proposal poster was. My immediate thought was that it must put an awful lot of pressure on the girls. But when I asked my daughter, she said girls feel insulted if you don’t make a poster. I’m so old and out of it. The title of this post was an answer to “how to ask someone to hoco without a poster,” which appeared among the first page of search results for “hoco poster,” along with an illustrated WikiHow guide.
