According to my wife, Smudge somehow got at my computer, found my Emacs session, and figured out how to access the psychotherapist. I think the cat had some help, but what the hell. Let’s see what a cat can do to an ELIZA-type chatbot; it’s less likely to do harm than letting the cat mess with ChatGPT.
I am the psychotherapist. Please, describe your problems. Each time you are finished talking, type RET twice.

Can you elaborate on that?
meow
I would appreciate it if you would continue.
meow
Go on, don’t be afraid.
meow
I need a little more detail please.
meow
You’re being a bit brief, perhaps you could go into detail.
meow
Can you are more explicit?
meow meow MEOW
Why do you say meow meow meow?
meow!
And?

Please, go into more detail?
This is also a test to see if my existing scripts can cope with Org text as source for blog posts instead of Markdown. ’Cause why not?
The scripts mostly worked, but needed some adjustments. My
makefile didn’t know what to do with Org
Mode files, so I needed to provide instructions. And some of my scripts
for generating partials assumed the only input they were getting would
be Markdown, so I had to adjust their sed
commands for converting the source filename to the destination.
And of course I was “testing in prod” because this is a personal website and occasional jank and breakage is to be expected. 😸
