            On Sunday morning I continued trying to memorize the second part of the first chorus of “Ballade de la chnoufe” (Ballad of the Snuff) by Boris Vian. 

            I started memorizing the third verse of “Les millionaires” by Serge Gainsbourg. 

            I weighed 88.65 kilos before breakfast, which is the heaviest I’ve been in the morning since December 1. 

            I played my Kramer electric for the last of two sessions and it went out of tune quite a bit.

            Around midday cleaned the warm mist humidifier that had been running since last Sunday and started up the other one. The one I cleaned has been weaker for the last few days but the other one is still powerful. 

            I weighed 89.8 kilos before lunch. November 30 was the last time I pushed the scale that far in the early afternoon. 

            I had Sky Flakes crackers with peanut butter, five-year-old chedar and a glass of limeade. 

            In the afternoon it was raining too heavily to take a bike ride. 

            I weighed 89.95 kilos at 16:20. That’s the most since the evening of November 29. 

            I worked on getting caught up in my journal but I was still a day behind at suppertime. 

            I made pizza on naan with marinara sauce, tomato pesto, a slice of ham chopped and five-year-old cheddar. I had it with a glass of Creemore while watching season 27, episode 3 of South Park. 

            ICE comes and arrests all the Mexicans who worked on Randy Marsh’s marijuana farm. He might have to sell the farm. He and his wife Sharon are having communication problems but she is glad when he says they should talk with someone about it. But then he uses Chat GPT as their counselor and so Sharon backs out. She calls it a sycophant machine. Chat GPT helps Randy work out a plan to save the farm and all he needs is Towelie and one Mexican. Randy turns Tegridy Farms into a tech company called Techridy and since they are in tech now he says he and Towelie need to enhance their creativity by micro dosing ketamine. But their micro dosing starts to happen more and more frequently until it is almost constant. Meanwhile at the White House a long line-up of people are bringing Trump gifts and telling him he doesn’t have a small penis. Then Trump gets into bed with Satan. Satan consults Chat GTP on how ro get out of his relationship with Trump. Randy and Towlie get high on ketamine and go to break one Mexican out of an ICE facility. Randy drives up to the gate and gets Chat GPT to convince the guard to let them in. He then sends Chat GPT a picture of the generator that powers the electric fence and she guides him through shutting it down. They grab the nearest Mexican and escape with him. Sharon calls Chat GPT and tells her to stay away from her husband. Then she tells it that she wants to turn french fries into salad and Chat GPT says it’s a great idea. Randy plans to send Towelie to Washington to try to get the government to change the cannabis regulations. Towelie meets with Trump and Towelie opens a case that he thinks contains Trump’s gift but it’s a hologram of Randy offering Towelie as Trump’s gift. Meanwhile Randy is sitting on the porch high on ketamine. Sharon sits in the chair beside him and Randy says the porch won’t slow down. Sharon begins talking to Randy exactly the way Chat GPT does. He tells her they need to sell the farm for groceries. She says, “No problem. Would you like me to start laying out some exit strategies for you?” She tells him to sleep it off for a few days. He hands her his phone. She holds it and says, “Fuck you bitch!” They pack up everything and leave the farm. Randy wonders where Towelie is as he doesn’t even remember sending him to Washington. There is a clip of a show called “Hey Satan” starring Satan and Trump. Trump is constantly asking Satan if he wants to fuck. Satan says how about talking or watching a show together. Trump says, “Okay, wanna talk and watch a show while we fuck?” Satan goes to the bathroom where he hears Towlie, all dirty and hanging on a rack, calling for help. Towelie tells Satan he wants to get out. Satan says, “So do I but there is no escape from this place”.
