I knew that song but could not remember it.
I was hoping someone would figure it out. I forgot a title for it
How about Leprosy's Lament
(Verse 1)
In the depths of my chest, a sharp pain resides,
A battle inside, where hope slowly subsides,
Pleurisy, a cruel visitor of the lung,
Leaving me breathless, my spirit all but undone.
(Chorus) Oh, Pleurisy, an unwelcome guest,
With every breath, you put me to the test, But I'll rise above, with strength deep within,
I'll find solace and healing, let the journey begin.
(Verse 2)
Aching ribs, a constant reminder of your hold, Every breath, a struggle, a story yet untold, But I won't surrender, I'll fight through the pain, With determination, I'll rise again.
(Chorus)
Oh, Pleurisy, an unwelcome guest,
With every breath, you put me to the test,
But I'll rise above, with strength deep within,
I'll find solace and healing, let the journey begin.
(Bridge) Through the darkest nights,
I'll search for the light, In the embrace of hope,
I'll find respite,
With each step forward, I'll reclaim my breath,
Defying the odds,
I won't accept defeat.
(Chorus)
Oh, Pleurisy, an unwelcome guest,
With every breath, you put me to the test,
But I'll rise above, with strength deep within,
I'll find solace and healing, let the journey begin.
(Verse 3)
As the pain fades, replaced by a gentle breeze,
I'll find peace and release, my spirit at ease,
Pleurisy, you may have knocked me down,
But I'll rise, stronger than ever, wearing victory's crown.
(Chorus)
Oh, Pleurisy, an unwelcome guest,
With every breath, you put me to the test, But I'll rise above, with strength deep within,
I'll find solace and healing, let the journey begin.
(Outro)
Though Pleurisy has marked its stain,
I'll rise above the pain,
I won't remain,
With gratitude and resilience, my spirit will soar,
Pleurisy won't define me,
I'll breathe freely once more.
I'm assuming the youtube clip was done with some AI assistance? If so, it's very good. In fact, it's actually just as awful as much of the "semi-rhythmic noise" made by humans. We're doomed.
Where's the Butlerian Jihad when you need it?
I can tel lie, but I won't Yes, it is AI
Butlerian Jihad
(Verse 1) In a distant age, a tale unfolds
Of a battle fought, a story untold
A war of machines and human pride W
here freedom and faith were put to the side
(Pre-Chorus)
From distant stars, they came to our land
Silent destroyers with a cold, steel hand
But the people rose, with fire in their eyes
To reclaim their world and protect the skies
(Chorus)
This is the Butlerian Jihad, a fight for our soul
The clash of technology and what makes us whole
With minds and hearts united, we'll stand tall Defending humanity, we'll never let it fall
(Verse 2)
Led by Serena Butler, brave and true
The humans rallied, their courage grew
They turned away from the thinking machines
To forge their own path, fulfilling their dreams
(Pre-Chorus)
With swords in hand, they took to the fight
Defending their right to think and feel the light
No longer enslaved to the cold metal gears
They embraced their humanity, conquering their fears
(Chorus)
This is the Butlerian Jihad, a fight for our soul
The clash of technology and what makes us whole
With minds and hearts united, we'll stand tall Defending humanity, we'll never let it fall
(Bridge)
In the heat of battle, the sparks filled the sky
As freedom's flame burned brighter, reaching up high The machines fell silent, their power undone Humanity prevailed, a new era begun
(Verse 3) But the lessons we learned, we must never forget
The dangers of relying on machines, a dangerous bet For in our hands lie the power to create
But also the power to seal our own fate
(Pre-Chorus)
Let us honor the heroes of the past
Their sacrifice and courage will forever last
And as we look to the future, let us be wise To embrace our humanity, reaching for the skies
(Chorus) This is the Butlerian Jihad, a fight for our soul
The clash of technology and what makes us whole
With minds and hearts united, we'll stand tall Defending humanity, we'll never let it fall
(Outro)
So raise your voice, let it be heard
The echoes of freedom, let them resound
For in unity we find strength and hope
The legacy of the Butlerian Jihad, forever renowned.
you will need to do those as I have been churning out tunes for a Birthday video I am doing so my quota gone, you will need to chop it up a lot to fit

ChatGPT wants money from me now too as used it too much
I was there when and started to come back and found your post. I was checking it out
Now someone needs to make a Leprechaun Plague song... Leprechaun Plague, also known as "New Kids On The Block Disease", which is actually way more transmissible than Hanson Disease or other Boy Band based illnesses doesn't seem to have any musical scores devoted to it... Yet...
Which kinda makes sense being that I'm not entirely sure if I made it up... Which I likely didn't, because I rarely make stuff up, which is technically something I may be making up right now, though that's highly, probably, mostly unlikely and even if it were, who is to say that what we consider to be reality is actually anything more than the fevered dreams of a meth addicted raccoon sleeping in a Taco Bell dumpster, so even when something is made up, is it really any more made up than anything the raccoon is hallucinating?
I expect that at some point someone is going to be using AI to scrape the internet for legal defenses and it'll incorporate that in its defense strategy... recently two lawyers claim that AI duped them into believing fictitious data were real cases that the AI made up... https://fortune.com/2023/06/09/lawyers-angry-new-york-judge-ai-tricked-them-citing-fake-cases-court-filing-chatgpt/#
Which I think is great, because if you are too lazy to do your own research, you deserve end up basing your defense on random stuff involving the hallucinations of cosmic raccoons.
...same for broken or bruised ribs like I've had in the past.
I cracked a rim on a pothole once... it didn't hurt when I laughed, but the tire did go flat...
...a pox on spelling checkers that don't check syntax and cheap keyboards where the letters wear off after a month or so.
(corrected it in the original)
While I've had bent and crumpled rims during my many years of cycling, never actually broke one (and usually I cussed rather than laughed afterwards as I was a good distance from home or my destination).
I have just about cracked all my ribs, sternman, My ankles. My hands—just glad it didn't happen at once That is a good thing.
Ah, I knew what you meant... I was just being a me, which apparently is against TOS to spell correctly anyway.
I didn't even think of bike rims... I destroyed lots of those... even on mountain bikes... NYC streets are worse than mountain canyons apparently... yeah... really sucks walking home for miles lifting your front wheel off the ground.
Complaint: Now even I am unable to upload images. No special characters in the name, name not too long, small image, PNG format. WTF? Have I caught leprosy or something?
...Portland, (which is supposedly one of the most "bike friendly" cities in the nation) has some of the worst streets I've seen (and that's from someone who grew up in the midwest where they get real winter with road salt and all sorts of nasty things). I've taking to referring to the city sometimes as "Potholeland". I've seen potholes that could easily swallow a Fiat 500 (not kidding). Part of iti has to do with the state allowing studded tyres on city streets that for pretty much the entirety of winter are bare and wet
Given that a high percentage of vehicles are heavy SUVs and those giant diesel pickups it's no wonder our streets are so torn up.
It's a general issue, I am surprised you hadn't already encountered it.
This is basically what the top computers do. Just go through every possibility until you find one that's better than anything anybody else has tried yet. Google's latest accomplishment was to come up with a better computer program for sorting data. Up to four or five characters sorted faster than any algorithm a human ever made. And their computer did this by typing random computer codes one after the other until one of them resulted in an actual computer program that accomplished the goal. It's as if the future isn't so much artificial intelligience, but to be rather relentless at trying and failing. Maybe that's not a bad attempt at simulating a human. But that's not where I was supposed to be going with this. I just wanted to trash these "try every possibility really fast" algorithms being made to look like they're actualy smart or good at games or something. That's like saying Superman is good at football when he would basically suck against real football players who had a sun that gave them the same super powers. I probably could have typed this a little better if I hadn't just tried to kill a fly with a spray and accidentally sprayed myself. I don't think I got myself that good though. Time will tell.
Non-complaint complaint: A reminder to drink plenty of fluids. Dehydration is a nasty thing.
Got dehydrated yesterday at a water park, of all places. What's that line about water water everywhere? Anyway, was out in the warm sun for a few hours, and we were having so much fun riding on tubes and sliding down slides that none of us stopped to drink much. I pulled a muscle while clambering out of a raft at the end of a ride, and the shock of that was enough to send me spiraling. Had to lie down on the pavement for a few minutes to settle things down.
The good news is that if you have to "lie down on the pavement for a few minutes to settle things down," park staff will hover over you and give you a free bottle of Gatorade. Yay! But it would have been far better and far less dramatic had I just drank a bottle of water or at least visited a water fountain at some point during the day.
I feel like at most "Water" parks, it's more like fluid, fluid everywhere... I'm not entirely sure it's all water... although I do believe though there is some policy in place that as long as their general entertainment related fluids are under 40% mammal urine they can still call it a "Water" park...
I'm sure there were probably other equally terrible water parks in tge 80s and 90s, but I had the privilege of growing up when Action Park was still in business... (In case anyone is unfamiliar with it or didn't see the documentary "Class Action Park" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Action_Park )
As kids, me and my friends would all drive down to Vernon township N.J. to risk life and limb on some of the most stupidly dangerous and janky attractions imaginable... literally none of us escaped that place without some lasting injury...for me it was a dislocated thumb and shoulder injury that was probably would have been a severe dislocation in anyone less double jointed (I'm not actually "double jointed" I just have hyper-flexibility in many of my joints)... one of my friends ended up needing some sort of surgery for an elbow injury and two others got stitches... to this day I have to be careful when I'm using a wrench because whatever the hell happened to my right thumb, it pops out of the socket a lot easier after that.. I also just remembered an incident where a good friend of mine went sailing through the air on some ride that was basically a skateboard like device that slide down a mountainside track made of concrete and fiberglass... whatever happened sent him flying out on a turn and he landed in the grass probably twenty feet from the track, somehow with minimal injuries... I was impressed because stuff like that normally happened to me and he actually didn't really get hurt, even though it looked really fatal.
The stupidest thing was none of us went home when we got injured... we'd just walk it off and go back on the rides... and it wasn't even a stupid teenage boy bravado thing either, because the girls all did it too... nobody went home unharmed... I suppose that was part of the allure of the place... the weird thing about that after the place closed down and me and my friends visited other "water" parks, we all found them lacking... not very exciting or too timidly designed... I guess when you think a certified death trap is a normal fun place, safe amusement parks seem boring.
In a way, I'm glad the place closed down because one of my daughters is just as dangerous as I am and I know she'd want to go there with her friends and do the same sort of crazy things living out her best Lara Croft fantasies there.
But anyway, I hope whatever muscle you pulled is recovered and you are feeling better.
complaint
I am pretty much rethinking everything right now, 3 possible failed drives but I think the third one may be the computer not the drive itself and that computer took out the second one
lost large chunks of personal data
really don't feel like starting over
if DIM and PostgreSQL were not giving me so much grief on this install I might feel a tad better and move on as have the content and can start a new leaf
am slowly downloading software but the new versions all suck and have different interfaces, none of my old Audacity plugins work for example
Google Collab $10 a month plan is looking mighty good right now
I think it would be fantastic to have a guy invite me to an amusement park where I could be flung several meters into the air, only to land on a tarmac surface so hot it's basically a thick liquid, so when I hit it I could leave an impression that eliminates the need for a chalk outline. That didn't happen.
But a close friend did buy me a Blu-Ray of the Super Mario Brothers movie and I really enjoyed it. There are so many movies like the Jem and the Holograms movie that seem like whoever made the movie has never liked or even seen the thing the movie is supposed to be about... kind of like the previous Super Mario movie... or the first Mortal Kombat movie where they thought it would be a good idea for both Scorpion and Sub-Zero to get killed off quickly and not be a big part of the movie while at the same time they saw it fit for Johnny Cage to survive the whole thing... but they got this movie right. And the sound was really something. I think the Dolby Atmos effects in the Mario movie were more impressive than The Last of Us or even the Marvel movies. Or maybe there is just better sound on Blu-Ray than the streaming services. Or maybe I'm high on bug spray. I don't know.
I don't want to be thrown several meters and land on burning tarmac at the same time. The same person who bought me the disc told me about when he was working at our local theme park, "Worlds of Fun" and the ground was so hot that it melted enough for him to leave footprints. Everybody in our circle, from he and the rest of my brother's friends on down to the rest of us, has worked at this theme park in some capacity. I am terrible at conclusions.
peptalk from my Muse
Complaint,
Painkillers make free woozy, and I don't like that.
Free Woozy!
Non-complaint: Eyeball report: Bubble in my eyeball still shrinking. When seated in my TV chair, in normal position, I've watched the bubble shrink over the last couple of weeks so that I could see my knees, then mid-thigh, then upper thigh, and yay, now I can see my crotch again. Wheee...
Another couple of weeks to go. Local eye doctor will see me again at the end of July, then in September I go back to the surgeon in Buffalo for final checkup.
Speaking of woozy... The cook is drunk. "...under the taaable..."
(at 0:35)
Repeat complaint I've complained about a thousand times but still feel the need to complain about again:
90% of the people who make tutorials can't make tutorials... I doubt they could send a rational text message... they just suck at it in one time wasting way or another... I can't even... it's just... Ughrrrrr!
How do you take fifteen minutes to basically say "top toolbar, click textures and choose library"?... how?... I'd go back to figure that out, but I can't make myself that angry or my head will explode... And then... then on top of that, it's not even accurate because for whatever reason it doesn't do what you said it should do... maybe it's a really old version you recently uploaded an old video of?... is it wrong of me to shout "I hate you, you suck, I hope your pets murder you in your sleep!"...?... I feel the added annoyance of your terminology being all over the place just adds insult to aggravation... I'd understand if I detected an ancient Phoenician or Mesopotamian accent, but bro is speaking perfect English... well, regular English as spoken by a standard American twenty-somethingish bipedal mammal, probably a primate, probably human... and why, why the hell is there a rapid drum backbeat going on while you are talking?... Who thinks that's necessary?... I feel like it's one of those old puzzle games where you have twenty seconds to figure out the puzzle or something explodes... only it goes on looping for fifteen minutes.... Grrrragh...!
And then there is f*****g Google... can you either give the results I asked for or just say "nope, ain't a thing"... why is it I ask a question and get results that literally have nothing to do with what I asked, with every keyword listed as "missing"... what are you basing the search on... "the", "a", "in"?... and god forbid the question includes a product name, then it ignores everything else and focuses on selling you the product... there are 10,000,000,000 results for websites selling it, reviewing it, mentioning it, trying to scam you into thinking you can get it for free...
You know what's wrong with technology? People... people are why we can't have nice or useful things.
Yeah, I hate that, they all make me dizzy... I've literally defaulted to enduring the pain than dealing with the nausea and dizziness.
I'm guessing "free" = "me"?... or spellcheck misspelled "whoopie"... but who doesn't like like free whoopie? I suppose if you are in pain... but...
Never mind... that's complicated.
I never had a problem with woozy until my cardiologist prescribed a new & expensive pill to try. I took the pill for a few days, and I knew, THIS IS NOT HOW I SHOULD BE FEELING.
I went back to my old pills and ever since then have needed to remind my cardiologist that; NO, I will NOT be taking those other pills.
My original pills help, they don't make me woozy, they've been around for decades, I haven't heard anything negative about them, and they're cheap.
I'm sure the new pills offer the doctor a kickback for pushing them.
I'd like to change cardiologist, but choices are limited in this area. Any cardiologist worth his salt is in the big hospitals in the big cities. Buffalo is known for heart execellence, but it's an hour away. I'll stick with my local cardiologist until he has to fly me to Buffalo on a helicopter to a real cardiologist. If I don't make it, meh.
At least, I would get to ride a helicopter.
