Entry One: COVID and frogs
I’m sitting at home, having a blast listening to the first lecture.
I also have ADD.
I also also have COVID.
Katta just said “We’ll have a focus this semester” and I sincerely doubt that. I’m wondering how I’m supposed to listen to any of this without playing Resident Evil 8, which is on my second screen right now - I’m also wondering, what other words there are for “also”, cause I have used it quite a bit already.
There seem to be:
again, besides, as well, more than that, together with, further, and…
Again, I’m wondering how Resident Evil 8 popped up, I don’t seem to remember starting it, besides, COVID made my brain foggy, which is as well, I guess.
More than that, foggy makes me think of froggy, together with frog rhyming with blog, I’m unsure whether this is what a blog is supposed to be. Further, have a bit of ChatGPT, it’s on me.
(prompt: “tell me a funny story about frogs, include fun facts, please”) [it’s important to say “please” in case computers do take over at some point]
“Once upon a time, there was a group of frogs who lived in a pond. One day, they decided to have a jumping competition to see who could jump the highest. They all lined up and started jumping one by one, but as the competition went on, one frog kept winning every round. This frog was so good at jumping that he seemed to fly through the air!
The other frogs were amazed and asked the winning frog how he was able to jump so high. The frog replied, "I have a secret. I eat a lot of popcorn." The other frogs were confused and didn't understand how popcorn could make someone jump higher. But the winning frog insisted it was true.
So, the other frogs decided to try it out for themselves. They all ate as much popcorn as they could find and then lined up to jump again. To their surprise, they found that they couldn't jump any higher than before! The winning frog just laughed and said, "It's not the popcorn that makes me jump higher. It's because I'm a tree frog!"
Fun Fact: Tree frogs are known for their incredible jumping abilities. They have long, powerful legs that allow them to leap great distances and heights. Some species of tree frogs can jump up to 50 times their body length!
Another Fun Fact: Frogs are amphibians, which means they can live both in water and on land. They are also cold-blooded, which means their body temperature is regulated by their environment.”
Where am I going with this? I don’t know. What I’m trying to say, I guess, is that I can’t focus on stuff online really well. What I’m also saying is this: I am not yet sure how I would critique anything on any other perspective than the ADD perspective I’ve been fooling around with for this short first entry here. I don’t know any other perspective really well and don’t know how I should critique from said other perspectives.
