Forgettable

Every stereotype fails on me.  It's solely in the most renowned alcoholic territory that I experienced the most strict refusal in buying booze. How odd!

Purple, blue — the first colours blasting in the chilly early spring. They are everywhere, blooming in cold spring rainy days. However, when the days get warmer, where red tulips, yellow dandelions, white lilies, violet lilacs take the place, all the blue hues are gone, including forget-me-nots.  The tenacity of my favourite colour is beyond my expectation, showing up only in coldest days.

Sometimes I like to wander in the parking lots, randomly glancing at the numbers on each car in the rows. I looked for no signs, but every time those numbers popped into my eyes. If it is a matter of probability, then why the p is always 1? I'm superstitious, it's just what I experience every time makes me wonder if there's anything invisible yet exists in the universe shouting out to me to remind me something. Be patient, wait to see.

Every single time, they told me the eggplant I chipped was too big, so I did some closeup observation several times today. They chipped the eggplant exactly the same size as I did. How come they were never satisfied with those I chipped? I guess their pride was on top when they instructed me to make it bigger or smaller. The most satisfying satisfaction lies in telling me no matter what I do, I do it wrong. Including one specifically told me to not cut the kelp too short, the other one curiously asked me if I had trimmed the kelp because it was too long. Yeah, in their mouths, I know nothing, I can't do anything.  Nothing feels better than making fun of me, I know, I know. They are not the first one. Someone even set up a column for making fun of me anonymously. Let's call someone the King Of Jokes. Can't they know that whatever shape, length or width the food has, it will all become dung in the end.

Not long ago, I noticed a grocery store that opened around the clock. For some days in a row, I went there at midnight to shop.  In the past, I was confused why some stores would open for 24 hours, there should be no customers at late night. But I found out I was wrong because many people were in the store when I was there. I guess many people just don't have time to do the the groceries at daytime, especially for those who worked 12 hours everyday. That brief time alone in the store, where nobody knows me, is a precious moment for me to recharge, to wash away all the soreness on my shoulders, waist, so that I can restart the next day. 

As the source of life in this beautiful blue planet, water contributes more than 50% of weight to the human body. Naturally, people choose to settle down near water. City clusters were gradually developed along rivers, as well as the worship and mythology associated to rivers. The local river deity heard my monologue, therefore the message was sent to me. The existence of something that can't be seen never feel so real. During the first hour of the new year, started from the frozen river, I walked all the way to the blue church rebuilt not long ago, because the benches in the park nearby were brand new. When I was on the slope next to a red building, a big black dog — half of my height, ran across my right side. When I stopped under two lamps in snow, the same dog ran by me from my right side, to the direction of river. I couldn't help to search the symbolism. I glanced at the two or three words of the definition, I swiftly put my phone back to my pocket. I told myself, it was ...

The astounding development of AI has occupied the major news headlines. Amidst the tides of dread, wealth, expectation, explanation, etc, my curiosity prompts me to have a close look into the outcomes. I watched some AI generated short videos and pictures. They look more like 3D animations to me, mainly because of the plastic skin texture, the flawless skin has no pores at all. How come they say the AI can replace the movie industry? Maybe in the long future, but not now. Tech companies, influencers and media work real hard to get attention and money by the exaggeration.  If in the future, bots do the daily chores, AGI completes all the office work, further more, people find solace, relationship, human emotion, delight of flesh in AI, what else can human do to exchange money to survive or climb the social ladder? Will there still be money in the future? Is human's being still necessary? That's still a long way to go, unless the AI can survive without electricity, human can main...
