"Nobody Cares If Music Is Real Anymore"

Commentary on AI-created music hinting that many human aficionados
of human-created music will often perceive AI tunes as "elevator music"
(familiar, acceptable, often enjoyable ... but always "lifted").

"The catchall phrase, 'crashing out', is shorthand for the unfiltered actions of a person who is angry,
anxious, confused, stressed out, or experiencing mental health issues. Can describe a range of behavior,
from emotional outbursts to altercations to withdrawals."

Best guess: These actions are meant for public display,
like PDA becoming PDC ('O' unnecessary - they're 'public').

Quick summary from this morning's long Q&A about relationship of diet to disease,
hinting that typical 24/7 food marketing is more profit- than health-oriented ...
even for foods/supplements claimed as super healthy.


Q: The profit motive for less nutritional food manufacturing/distribution seems related
to the profit motive for medical care and pharmaceuticals.

(Google Gemini) " Unhealthy, ultra-processed foods are profitable and heavily marketed, especially to children
and low-income communities. Corporate influence extends to policy and research, often hindering efforts
to improve public health through better nutrition. The resulting burden of chronic disease, including cancer,
creates further profit opportunities for the healthcare and pharmaceutical industries."

"Rogan flips the God debate on its head with shocking theory that 'we created him' "

Sounds interesting! We'll know for sure when our simulation
stops passing us into the unknown at life's end ... or at least
reveals the magic why those passed never return here.

Until then, don't pay taxes to experience the penalty
for this reality that we created ... or get a sunburn
... or hammered thumb ... or whatever.

Online news: "President says Putin is now a bad guy."

This actually highlights modern leadership (worldwide):
Redefine the problem when solutions are not working.

"Meghan's new $30 As Ever Rosé wine has finally arrived ... here's how it tastes"

"It tasted affordable and ordinary ... not bad ... like wine served at a work happy hour."

As these food reviews accumulate, we sense that
"As Ever" is unusually consistent marketing!

"Just saw someone split a $6 coffee into 4 payments"

Pre-dawn stimulation of mental query: Why

- To create longer lasting memories of the sips?
- Because $1.50 looked better on 4 expense reports?
- If this was espresso, that's $3 per tablespoon!
- Because $6/3 ($2) coffee seemed too expensive?
- Lawsuit avoidance for the hot coffee spill?
- The required tip necessitated the payments?
- Our boss gifts us with a $6 can of coffee!
- 4 people shared, needing separate checks?
- $6 must have been day-old coffee!

This could go on for days

- AI-displaced worker buying job-hunting coffee?
- Requires 5 payments if coffee cup provided?
- Hot water in coffee cup is just 3 payments!
