Maybe That Explains It

Yesterday we wondered why ChatGPT

Seems to be dumbing down consistently.

And yes it’s related to human use…

Could it be any wonder when we produce

Folks who believe that the best source of truth

Comes from the guy who’s THE most uncouth?

AI Is Human Too

Turns out that the brilliance of Open AI

Is tarnishing fast and we don’t know why.

Profs from Stanford and Berkeley are on the case

With research suggesting that as a base

Interaction with humans could be a cause…

Which Team MAGA greeted with hearty applause.

Mullet Mania

Okay, so I kinda agree with the Right

That for young children it’s not really alright

To undergo surgery that will transform

Their birth gender… that can’t be the norm.

But Holy Moly how could THIS be okay?!

It takes their concern for child welfare away…

Magical Mystery Rates

Whatever your view of fiscal control

And what that means for the Treasury’s role

Now’s a good time to reflect on your views

Perhaps be expansive, find a new muse…

‘Cuz that’s what Janet Yellen is doing!

Magical new policies must be brewing…

Fearing a Zero Sum Game

Chicken Little was a pretty scared dude

And these days it seems like that’s the mood

Of anyone who speaks into a mic

They say, “The sky is falling!” kinda like…

Might it be that what informs this sad view

Is wealth being spread beyond just a few?

Isn’t It Ironic

Throughout our youth we’re told to grow up

‘Cuz we’d do things that’d make adults blow up.

So now that we’ve joined the ranks of the old

After trying to do everything we were told

It turns out that what we need as old dudes

Is to reconnect with our young attitudes!

Seems Fitting

So Trump has been charged with mob-like crime!

As if it was more than a matter of time.

He’s stretched and bent both the truth and the law

So far through his life it’s a matter of awe

That he’s yet to have to account for his acts

Hopefully this time there’re no “alternative facts.”

Good Luck with That

When the jobless rate is at three percent

And wages are high and cover the rent

I see how the kids may think it’s okay

To change their jobs every other day.

But once the labor market gets tight

They won’t be hired – who’d risk the flight?

Till Debt Do Us Part

I have to imagine their days are numbered

Because it’s insane that he’s encumbered

Their marriage with such absolute mistrust

Which has to lead to a total bust.

Leaving aside all the fictitious pay

What did she think he was doing each day?!

Uncommon Sense

In Guatemala things are pretty hot

Unrest has been building and there’s a lot

Of violence and anger and corruption

Creating massive social disruption.

So into that mix guess what we have done?

Made it super easy to get a gun!
