Greeting to all!!

More than likely, ... AI is everywhere now ... unfortunately it is only as good as its programmers & with so many hackers and cyber criminals I am worried for what AI will do in the future.

On a brighter note, beautiful day out, schools are back in session so not so many tourists & quieter in the community,

I go back to my original (imaginary?) observation. We were talking about castles and jousting, and wham, I'm fed AI images of Elon as a knight. I'm sure everything public here is gathered and fed into "the machine." And Elon/X has launched their AI Grok that does images based on prompts...

Yes, on a brighter side, (too bright! waaaayyy too hot out today!) cooler weather is almost here!

We usually get rain at Halloween so it stays pretty dry until then.

Is your costume already for your Red Faire?

You have time to get some friends together, maybe you can do a theme together.

Always fun to have something to look forward to.

Aww, you are so sweet, I appreciate that.. But I'm kind of older side and I really don't have friends that care enough or have time to hang out with me.

Yeah especially when sometime sad happens.. I prefer to focus on the Positive Side.. The Other Side is too much

You never know ... be excited about it & it might inspire someone to go ... bring out the curiosity in them.
On the other hand, if you have specific things you want to do bringing someone new might keep you from getting everything done. Pros & cons.

Sometimes I look for someone who just wants to go for a walk, enjoy the outdoors, talk or don't talk, just enjoy being outside. I am not one who likes the gym or swimming though.

I know it doesn't feel like how things should be, but I end up being the instigator of things that involve others. Since COVID lockdowns it's like everyone has gotten used to the new normal of less in person gatherings, so it's been more difficult than it used to be.

There's always joining other open groups and seeing if anything or anyone clicks. I wouldn't say it's a constant "struggle" (bad word for it), but it's a never-ending cycle (not in bad way, because another way to look at it is it's always new adventures to be had!).

It's good that you've got a balanced attitude. Please know we're just trying to help and excuse if we're looking at basic stuff first.
