Switched from french press to pour over and I get it now

French press has been around forever for a reason. That grit you mention is just the price you pay for a full bodied cup, not a flaw. Pour over strips out all the oils and fine particles that give coffee its richness. Tried a V60 at a cafe once and it tasted like weak tea compared to my usual brew. Different strokes, but I'll take the texture and complexity of a french press any day over something that looks clean but tastes thin.

Got tricked by that AI that writes poetry... turned out it was better than me

Two springs ago I found an old journal entry from 2019 where I tried writing a poem for my grandma's funeral. It was real bad, like cringe level bad. I fed the same details into an AI last month just to see what would happen. The thing wrote a better poem than me, but here's the part nobody talks about - it was missing all the messy human stuff like the spelling mistakes and the crossed out lines and the tear stains on the paper. The AI version was technically better but it felt hollow compared to my garbage poem because my garbage poem had my actual heart in it. Your missing cat haiku probably hit you hard because it captured the feeling right, but you gotta ask yourself if you want perfect poetry or poetry that has your fingerprints all over it.

I used to think board game nights were about winning, but a game of Catan changed my view

Fuming over the robber" is a little dramatic lol. Its just a plastic piece on a board game, not like someone stole your car.
