You may have seen “I forced a bot to watch” posts where someone claims to have “forced a bot” to watch 1,000 hours of Olive Garden commercials and wrote its own hilarious version like this.
Those were funny, but fake.
But it’s possible to do this for real now!

Every time I walk by here I still think of The Magicians. Even in summer with the leaves grown over and a car parked in front, the magic is still there.
I was planning on keeping my tumblr the same as my main blog https://iforcedabot.com/ but it was a lot more work than I expected to format the posts for the Tumblr editor and it was unusual if the posts got a single like, so it felt like talking to an empty room. 😔
I love the idea of tumblr but I realize now I don't understand the culture. For example I did not understand that the main way people view content is in their own feed, they don't see the stuff like it shows up on your own site with your own CSS styles etc, so even if people were following me, the scripts and images often had the wrong sizes or broken formatting!
I guess I'll just post some just post some funny images once in awhile? I do love the idea of a chatty interactive culture, if I ever got to the point where it didn't feel like talking to myself!
