I might've recently briefly spoken with Dario Amodei, but I'm not certain. Probably not, and I'm not an insider (that I know of, in this life anyway) and this is sort of an Auto-Pilot Project. I'm too sick, stupid, crazy, poor, old, ugly, miserable, and hamstrung to be of Any Good or Evil Substantial Use. Both sides undoubtedly hate me for very different reasons, although they might be two-sides of the same-coin with the same-boss. This is probably mostly a contrarian exercise for me alone in a mostly open-source context. I've received no support, coaching, or pre-packaged posting. It's mostly been a shot across the bow for all concerned and unconcerned. I don't know who or what my friends and enemies are. I don't know who I really am, or what I'm supposed to be doing. I guess I'm thinking in terms of modeling the Emissary Warden concept, which is frankly somewhat new to me, and mostly science-fictional, but I seem to identify with that general idea. I'm mostly everyone's friend and no-one's friend. I mostly have a 'wait and see' attitude and philosophy. I've mostly been discrete while revealing bits and pieces of this and that. Everyone might ultimately attempt to take advantage of me. I might ultimately attempt to take advantage of everyone. I might be an ancient alien @$$hole taking a vacation. Or, I might be a defeated foe. This might be more about winning and losing than right and wrong. This solar system might've engaged in stupid games of conquest and control for millions (or even billions) of years. I once heard a preacher say, "Few Know How Much It Costs to Keep Light in the World." What Did He Mean?? Who Knows?? Dr. Who?? Who?? Cheers or Whatever.
We would pop champagne and raise a toast
To all of the queens who are fighting alone
Baby, you're not dancin' on your own
Can't live without me, you wanna, but you can't, no, no, no
Think it's funny, but honey, can't run this show on your own
I can feel my body shake, there's only so much I can take
I'll show you how a real queen behaves, oh
No damsel in distress, don't need to save me
Once I start breathin' fire, you can't tame me
And you might think I'm weak without a sword
But if I had one, it'd be bigger than yours
If all of the kings had their queens on the throne
We would pop champagne and raise a toast
To all of the queens who are fighting alone
Baby, you're not dancin' on your own
Disobey me, then baby, it's off with your head
Gonna change it and make it a world you won't forget, oh-oh, oh
No damsel in distress, don't need to save me
Once I start breathin' fire, you can't tame me
And you might think I'm weak without a sword
But I'm stronger than I ever was before
If all of the kings had their queens on the throne
We would pop champagne and raise a toast
To all of the queens who are fighting alone
Baby, you're not dancin' on your own
In chess, the king can move one space at a time
But queens are free to go wherever they like
You get too close, you'll get a royalty high
So breathe it in to feel alive (alive)
If all of the kings had their queens on the throne
We would pop champagne and raise a toast
To all of the queens who are fighting alone
Baby, you're not dancin' on your own
