I’ve been mad busy lately — planning for SXSW, acting in a couple i-die m-vies, finishing my record — and I’ve found that in my free time, I’ve gravitated toward this AI-generated Family Guy parody on YouTube. It’s live 24/7, there’s usually about 95 people watching at a time, and the prompts are submitted by users who donate. Right now it’s Joe reciting the lyrics to Nine Inch Nails’ ā€œHurtā€ from his wheelchair while his wife repeatedly says ā€œI want a divorce.ā€ It’s better than actual Family Guy, and it makes me feel like a deeply unwell person in the midst of a nervous breakdown. In other words, it’s exactly how I want to feel. You don’t actually have to watch it, I can keep this ritual to myself, just trying to let the PI community in on how I’m doing.

the AI constantly losing its mind and devolving into gibberish, the chat forming an entire narrative, dougdoug trying desperately to steer the AI back from insanity- it's incredibly well done and i can't quite say why

Telling people who come over (and are not allergic to cats) that I can’t wait for them to meet my pups and then I introduce them to my cats. I refer to the cats as dogs, pups, etc. and the person is like ā€œlol that’s a catā€œ and I’m like ā€œlolllll…um…that’s a dog. šŸ’…ā€ When something isn’t for me, I do a lil Shark Tank bit. Say I got some food that wasn’t for me, I would say, for instance, like, ā€œThe food was unbelievably salty, lukewarm, and had an egregious texture- and for those reasons- I’m out.ā€ When someone is being bossy in the kitchen I do a lil 🫔 and say ā€œYES CHEFā€. When someone is being bossy about questions I say ā€œYES YOUR HONOR.ā€ When someone is being bossy about giving a direction to do something I say ā€œšŸ«” SIR YES SIR.ā€ Overexplaining a bad joke as part of the bit. Like really taking it far with trying to explain the joke and why it makes sense to you. I did this unironically at first but then I was like maybe it can just be part of the joke, explaining the joke a whole lot, so it’s part of the joke now. Asking my wife ā€œDo you want to hear a song I recorded?ā€ and then putting on a song that she knows, like ā€œRetrogradeā€ by James Blake and being like ā€how do you like my vocals on this track?ā€ and then when she says ā€yeah it’s goodā€ I say ā€œthanks, it’s one of my favorite songs I recorded- you can look it up online, the song is ā€œRetrogradeā€œ and I recorded it under the name Hames Blakay- spelled James Blake.ā€ Sending your best friend a voice note doing a YouTube Karaoke of ā€œHigherā€ by Creed. Telling them you also take YouTube Karaoke requests. Creating bitmoji soap operas through text with your best friend. Going in really creating the visuals, voices, and personalities of full on characters and everything.

I was once a fly on the wall of a workplace in which a very prominent American theater director and a very prominent American clown were both employed. Both older men. I witnessed the director sharing a clip from Family Guy with the clown, where Peter confesses to not liking The Godfather as the Griffin family drowns to death. The clown watched in complete delight. He asked the director, ā€œand he does all the voices?ā€ ā€yeah,ā€ the director said. ā€that’s remarkable,ā€ the clown added.

You can’t really repeat it of course but it was a nice moment

It's the key to making the whole thing work -- listen to the album some guy you met in Ohio sent you; watch the short film that the 22-year old you met at KGB DM'd you; show up to the screening if you can. It can seem like a nuisance cuz you can't see what P4k rated it and Taylor Swift or whoever isn't involved and you'll have no reaction to lean on but your own. But it's the key to staying passionate and making friends and keeping this whole DIY ecosystem working.

I was playing Elliott Smith as per ush (uje? ushe?) and Bets said she couldn’t handle any more sad music so as a joke I threw on this 2016 Ye classic. Turns out it’s still the best song ever and I still know every word. Plus, what a lyric: ā€œWhen did I become A-list? I wasn’t even on a list.ā€ Story of my life!!!!!!
