AI Stories

There are some very interesting AI story generators out there. Not like write a story kind of thing. But pick your own adventure style stories. They start with a premise and go from there, based on whatever you choose to type in. Whatever you choose to do. They can be very interesting. I’m going through one right now where it took a serious turn off the normal it should have based on something I did. It actually went the kind of creepy that weirded me out in a very interesting and intriguing way. To the point that I almost went back and deleted everything after a certain point. But I’m curious to find out where it is going. It’s not very often when an AI goes off in a direction I don’t expect. I’m usually good at analyzing things, and this one went into left field in a way I’m still trying to figure out. I am deeply interested in figuring out the mystery, because so far everything I’ve tried is coming up empty in ways that have me on tiptoes. Never thought I’d say that about an AI pick your own adventure story. Now it could just have gone bonkers out and gone nuts with age. But I’m still investigating for now.

Transformers Rebirth

I’m writing the next part of Transformers Rebirth at the moment. Totally fan fiction, but there to do something I want to do and cleanse the writing mind for the next Captain William Carter story. In the previous story that was published in the Teletran fan magazine, Fort Max called on some Wreckers to do a job. They are like the Dirty Dozen. Aggressively competent at blowing stuff up with a high body count. They were originally created as a way for Simon Furman to write stories about Transformers characters that weren’t shown in the Marvel comics published in America. And for him to be a bit more destructive in ways the more kid-friendly American comic couldn’t be. So for this story, the big peacenick Fort Max has realized the job he needs to do is too big for him and his fellow peacenik scientists and accountants. He needs the Wreckers. Last story was him getting them interested in the job. THIS story is the job. This story is fun to write as it shows the differences between the three main factions in very clear detail. And showing Fort Max’s reaction to all of that is just fun to write.

Year One

There are five major calendar systems in use in the world right now.

The Hebrew calendar that goes back over 5,000 years.
The Chinese calendar that goes back over 3,000 years.
The Indian Vikram Samvat system that goes back to great military victory half a century before the birth of Christ.
Our own Gregorian system built on the older Julian system created in the same general time as the Indian system, and that originally pointed back to the foundation of Rome, over seven hundred years before the birth of Christ.
And the Islamic Hijiri system that points back to the foundation of their religion.

All of these calendars predate the concept of the number zero. Measuring nothing was not something we thought about as a people when these calendars were created. There is no Year Zero in any of them. There is a Year One. And the year before that is Year Minus One. Because time is something, and we weren’t measuring zero time.

Most of us have grown up utterly believing in the concept of the number zero. The idea that everything starts at zero and must be counted before it becomes one. But centuries ago, when the calendars that we run our lives on right now were created, we didn’t measure something until it existed. Year One.

We should all consider what that means for all of us.

Fourth of July Terrorists

You may have heard about the Fourth of July Terror attack, depending on which news services you pay attention to.

Trump scheduled a UFC fight on the White House grounds and Americans came from all over to enjoy a rough and tumble fight where big burly men beat on each other until one of them surrenders or is rendered unable to continue the fight. You might remember from history that Abraham Lincoln was a boxer long before boxing became the careful and gentle sport it is now. And he was by reports a bit of a monster at it. All of this was scheduled as part of the ongoing festivities celebrating the 250th birthday of the United States of America. We had Air Force flyovers, military bands playing patriotic tunes, and everything else you would expect of a celebration of our nation’s birthday.

We also had the expected Democrat protests against celebrating our nation’s birthday. The screaming and knashing of teeth over the idea that dumb UFC fighters and their dumber fans would be allowed to celebrate America on the hallowed White House grounds that should be reserved for the kind of topless dancers and public sexual orgies the Democrats like to show off on Easter Sunday, or on Transgender Visibility Day as they called it that year. And of course… you know… Trump. They had singing acts that reminded me of the worst singing episodes of Star Trek and Babylon Five and make me think fondly of all those world Soccer fans singing songs in football stadiums right now. I grew up in church and school and college choirs. I wrote music. You have to work really hard to sing so badly that I think fondly of fans singing in football stadiums.

Now around all of this, there was a planned terror attack on the White House grounds that day. And it was actually a very good one. They were going to use explosive drones flying near the White House to cause an evacuation designed to funnel people away from the White House into an area they had snipers set up in so they could shoot into the crowd and kill as many people as possible. And as we all know from a certain concert terror attack from a few years ago, a well-prepared sniper attack shooting into a crowd can be devastating. Based on what we know so far, it involved dozens of people who had the resources to actually make it happen. And we just found out that the ringleader of the attack is one of the illegal aliens Obama invited into the country. He obviously wanted to enrich our country with the kind of political violence that is more common where he comes from.

Now I do have to admit to some hesitation. It seems the FBI broke the case. And as we all know from the FBI Fednapping case in Michigan, the FBI can not be trusted to “find” a terror attack during an election season. If you remember, that time it was the FBI who recruited a bunch of gullible village idiots to kidnap governor Whitmer. The FBI found, recruited, funded, trained, and transported the village idiots to the place to be arrested in front of the cameras so the FBI could claim that evil Right Wing Nationalists were committing political violence in an election season. And the facts were so obvious that juries have refused to convict the village idiots when they were brought to trial over it.

Is it possible they did the same thing again? That this case will be the FBI Feddroning case in the future? That everyone will know in the future that the FBI found, recruited, funded, trained, and transported some villages idiots to be arrested in front of the cameras so the FBI could claim that evil Illegal Aliens were committing political violence in an election season? Absolutely. That would be a wild story, but based on observable, known, historical facts, I could see it.

But we should all keep our heads on a swivel over the next weeks. This is America’s 250th birthday. What story would be greater for a hater of America than a terror attack that kills hundreds of Americans on or about the Fourth of July Two Hundred and Fifty? And as we celebrate that same birthday, we have to watch for those who want to go do down in history as the Fourth of July Terrorists.
