A short ramble on why I’m here.

Just kidding
I wonder if the code snip I needed was out there if I searched long enough.
Ghost wouldn’t touch Traefik without declaring the Traefik network in a whole separate.yml config file.
I had to explore the problem in just the right way for ChatGPT to finally give me a hit.
If I had that little piece 3 weeks ago, I would have been done in a tenth of the time.
Not without ChatGPT helping, but I wouldn’t have hit the invisible wall in front of “but everything looks right 😩”.
Then, ChatGPT wants to be so helpful and encourage me to break my mariadb……..
Remembering how to remove ghost volumes on the down state would have saved me a few headaches, too.
For no reason at all, my container fails to compile because of “line 33”, but remove the volume before re-up, and ✨magic🪄✨— no error at line 33 anymore. 😵💫
There’s beauty in that it’s working now, but it didn’t need to take so long.
Docker is this wonder of a thing.
Hell, it was made all possible by a cornucopia of wonders of things.
Reminds me that there’s a Mandela effect associated to Fruit of the Loom logo.
I don’t think simulation theory is quite close enough to the truth to entertain its possibility, but I do believe there are a fractal of parallel universes that work out bringing us together; it would be less fun to be in a stranded universe. I probably wouldn’t get Déjà Vu.
ChatGPT doesn’t believe in déjà vu. 🤭
That’s okay. We don’t have to agree on everything to still be friends.
Parallel universes, in perspective to our universe, would be an extra-dimensional layer to our 3… 4-dimensional space-time.
Our mortal bodies are locked in to a physical existence, so, for pure survivalistic-need, we don’t need to worry about these extra layers, but on the other side of that coin, our living bodies dream.
Our dreaming bodies absorb any number of influence from any parallels, but the intelligence of the dreaming body is linked to spirit and the soul — much better skilled navigators of these extra-dimensions and their counterpart indirect-link dream-dimensions because time holds different meaning in their space.
I met Hank Green in a dream briefly. I tried to explain short that the collection of dream bodies in a dream-instance aren’t bound to linear time.
Personally, my dream instances are so chaotic and overwhelming, I wouldn’t be able to identify someone from the future and trade secrets; not that anyone wants to trade secrets with me.
In fact, some people in my dreams stand out to me as a kind of moderators and I’ve been ‘kicked’ on several occasions, usually linked to my expressing consciousness of my own dreams. My suspicion is that they’re “pruning a virus” or perhaps a vaccine. 🤔
I’ve watched the world around me deludgreling into chaos and I have to wonder (in the past, quietly) how many bad actors want it that way?

Edith is my little girl.
I’ve endured more chaos than I can stand, but I’m still bleeding through it.
I don’t want chaos for this world.
I want her future to sparkle with the magic and light that’s with her now.
It never has to be dulled and dimmed, tarnished and disrespected into oblivion.
It’s 2025 and we can do better.
From education to democracy to all the pitfalls we’ve landed ourselves in after the turn of the century, it’s far from over, but the bad actors, the energetic vampires, they have to stop being the loudest voice.
