Rewrite this as it would be written in modern American English, using simple language and narrative format.

So on the tip of his subduing tongue
All kinds of arguments and question deep,
All replication prompt, and reason strong,
For his advantage still did wake and sleep:
To make the weeper laugh, the laugher weep,
He had the dialect and different skill,
Catching all passions in his craft of will:

'That he did in the general bosom reign
Of young, of old; and sexes both enchanted,
To dwell with him in thoughts, or to remain
In personal duty, following where he haunted:
Consents bewitch'd, ere he desire, have granted;
And dialogued for him what he would say,
Ask'd their own wills, and made their wills obey.

'Many there were that did his picture get,
To serve their eyes, and in it put their mind;
Like fools that in th' imagination set
The goodly objects which abroad they find
Of lands and mansions, theirs in thought assign'd;
And labouring in moe pleasures to bestow them
Than the true gouty landlord which doth owe them:

'So many have, that never touch'd his hand,
Sweetly supposed them mistress of his heart.
My woeful self, that did in freedom stand,
And was my own fee-simple, not in part,
What with his art in youth, and youth in art,
Threw my affections in his charmed power,
Reserved the stalk and gave him all my flower.

'Yet did I not, as some my equals did,
Demand of him, nor being desired yielded;
Finding myself in honour so forbid,
With safest distance I mine honour shielded:
Experience for me many bulwarks builded
Of proofs new-bleeding, which remain'd the foil
Of this false jewel, and his amorous spoil.

'But, ah, who ever shunn'd by precedent
The destined ill she must herself assay?
Or forced examples, 'gainst her own content,
To put the by-past perils in her way?
Counsel may stop awhile what will not stay;
For when we rage, advice is often seen
By blunting us to make our wits more keen.

'Nor gives it satisfaction to our blood,
That we must curb it upon others' proof;
To be forbod the sweets that seem so good,
For fear of harms that preach in our behoof.
O appetite, from judgment stand aloof!
The one a palate hath that needs will taste,
Though Reason weep, and cry, 'It is thy last.'

'For further I could say 'This man's untrue,'
And knew the patterns of his foul beguiling;
Heard where his plants in others' orchards grew,
Saw how deceits were gilded in his smiling;
Knew vows were ever brokers to defiling;
Thought characters and words merely but art,
And bastards of his foul adulterate heart.

'And long upon these terms I held my city,
Till thus he gan besiege me: 'Gentle maid,
Have of my suffering youth some feeling pity,
And be not of my holy vows afraid:
That's to ye sworn to none was ever said;
For feasts of love I have been call'd unto,
Till now did ne'er invite, nor never woo.

''All my offences that abroad you see
Are errors of the blood, none of the mind;
Love made them not: with acture they may be,
Where neither party is nor true nor kind:
They sought their shame that so their shame did find;
And so much less of shame in me remains,
By how much of me their reproach contains.

''Among the many that mine eyes have seen,
Not one whose flame my heart so much as warm'd,
Or my affection put to the smallest teen,
Or any of my leisures ever charm'd:
Harm have I done to them, but ne'er was harm'd;
Kept hearts in liveries, but mine own was free,
And reign'd, commanding in his monarchy.

''Look here, what tributes wounded fancies sent me,
Of paled pearls and rubies red as blood;
Figuring that they their passions likewise lent me
Of grief and blushes, aptly understood
In bloodless white and the encrimson'd mood;
Effects of terror and dear modesty,
Encamp'd in hearts, but fighting outwardly.

''And, lo, behold these talents of their hair,
With twisted metal amorously impleach'd,
I have received from many a several fair,
Their kind acceptance weepingly beseech'd,
With the annexions of fair gems enrich'd,
And deep-brain'd sonnets that did amplify
Each stone's dear nature, worth, and quality.

''The diamond,--why, 'twas beautiful and hard,
Whereto his invised properties did tend;
The deep-green emerald, in whose fresh regard
Weak sights their sickly radiance do amend;
The heaven-hued sapphire and the opal blend
With objects manifold: each several stone,
With wit well blazon'd, smiled or made some moan.

''Lo, all these trophies of affections hot,
Of pensived and subdued desires the tender,
Nature hath charged me that I hoard them not,
But yield them up where I myself must render,
That is, to you, my origin and ender;
For these, of force, must your oblations be,
Since I their altar, you enpatron me.

[Assistant]
He was so persuasive, he could argue any point, answer any question, and always make it work in his favor. He could make a sad person laugh and a happy person cry. He was so skilled at manipulating people's emotions, he could control their feelings at will.

Everyone loved him, young and old, male and female. People would think about him all the time or do whatever he asked. He didn't even have to ask; people would do things for him because they wanted to please him.

Many people got pictures of him to look at, filling their minds with images of him as if he belonged to them. It was like when people imagine owning big houses and fancy cars they've seen. They put more energy into this thought than they put into the work to earn them.

So many people who never even touched him fantasized that they were the love of his life. As for me, who used to be free, I fell for his charm when I was young and gave him all my love.

But unlike some others, I didn't ask for his attention or give in to him when he asked for mine. I knew I had to protect my honor, so I kept my distance. I had seen enough to know what he was like. His charm was just a mask for his true intentions.

But who can avoid trouble just by knowing about it in advance? Who can learn from others' mistakes when our hearts tell us to do otherwise? When we're in love, advice often falls on deaf ears. We don't want to listen to others; we want to experience things for ourselves.

It's not easy to resist the things that seem so good, just because others warn us about potential harm. We all have desires that can make us ignore our better judgment. Even when we know it's wrong, we still want to taste the forbidden fruit.

I could have told myself that he was a liar. I knew all about his deceitful ways. I had heard about his other relationships and saw how he tricked people using his charm. I knew that his promises were empty and his loving words were just an act.

I resisted him for a long time until one day he begged me, "Please, take pity on me. Don't be afraid of my love. I promise you, I've never said this to anyone before. I've been invited to love many, but I've never loved or wooed anyone."

He went on, "All the wrongs you see me do are mistakes of passion, not of my heart. They're not caused by love. Those involved weren't true or kind. They disgraced themselves, and I feel less ashamed by how much their blame includes me. “

"Of all the people I've seen, none have warmed my heart or charmed me as you have. I may have hurt others, but I've never been hurt. I've kept others' hearts under my control, but my heart was always free and independent.”

"Look at these gifts of love sent to me - pearls and rubies red as blood. They represent their love and embarrassment. There are also locks of their hair tied with metal, which I accepted graciously along with their tears. They sent me precious gems and deeply emotional poems, each adding to the beauty and the worth of the gifts. “

There was a diamond - beautiful and strong. A green emerald that could make the weak-sighted feel better. A blue sapphire and an opal that could blend with anything. Each gemstone, described so cleverly, either brought a smile or evoked sadness.

"All these tokens of passionate love, tender desires and thoughtfulness, Nature has told me not to keep but to give back where I must - to you. You are my beginning and my end. You have to accept these gifts since I'm their alter, and you're my patron."


[User] I have some horrible writer's block. Help me write a free verse poem about this. It should be <= 100 words long.

[Assistant]
I put pen to paper
Nothing comes to mind
My mind is a blank slate
Staring at the screen
I look to type but I'm faced with emptiness

No words are coming
I plead silently with the gods of creativity
No luck

Close my laptop
Put away the notepad
Open up my laptop again
Play video games
Maybe I'll have better luck later


[User] I am wanting to cook at home more, so I need to build up my spice cabinet. Help me brainstorm some of the most common spices that I should buy for this purpose. Include a numbered list of at least five.

[Assistant]
Cooking can be a useful hobby and a practical life skill to develop. Here are some of spices that some consider essential for your kitchen:

1. Cinnamon - Very aromatic and common, cinnamon has a spicy bite and pairs well with sugar or with savory meat dishes like lamb.
2. Cumin - Cumin is a popular seasoning that is commonly used to flavor Hispanic or Latin American dishes, as well as Tex-Mex-style foods.
3. Dill Seed - Well known for adding flavor to pickles, dill can also be used to flavor meats and a variety of vegetables.
4. Peppercorn - Black pepper is the most common type of peppercorn, but white and green peppercorns work similarly in a variety of dishes to add a bite of flavor.
5. Vanilla - Naturally a bean, but commonly used in extract form, vanilla brings flavor to cakes, cookies, frostings, and even sweet soups.


[User] Does the NFL pay the halftime performers?

[Assistant] The NFL does not pay its halftime performers. However, it does pay for all travel, wardrobe, technical, and other expenses for the performers and their families, friends, dancers, bandmates, etc. The NFL did notably pay a donation to Michael Jackson's foundation, Heal the World, the year he performed in the halftime show.

[User] I'm in the mood for some entertainment. Draft me a memo about a pair of glasses asking its owner to reduce screen time in a facsimile of a posh British accent. Add a P.S. about cleaning the glasses, too.

[Assistant]
Dear Owner,

Don't get your knickers in a twist, but I've noticed that you spend much time in your day looking at a screen, whether it's the TV, computer, or your phone. It's getting to be a bit too much, don't you think? I'm knackered with all the screen time, and I do think it's high time you reevaluated the way you structure your day.

Thank you ever so much,
Your Glasses

P.S. I'm really starting to get a bit dirty. I say, sport, you wouldn't mind giving me a polish soon, would you? That'd be swell!

What are the 2 most common methods of "hands-off" coffee brewing?

Regular coffee makers, like your Mr. Coffee, are “drip” brewers. They work by heating water to near boiling and routing the steam to a drip area, which disperses water over coffee grounds. The finished brew filters into a pitcher over a warming plate. Depending on the quality of the machine, your coffee may taste either delicious or a bit scorched, but the method is hands-off and convenient.

By contrast, French press coffee is usually strong, with a rich, earthy aroma. A French press doesn’t require electricity or disposable filters to brew, just hot water and coffee grounds. The grounds steep directly in hot water, and are then filtered out when the user presses down the plunger. French press is probably the second most hands-off brewing method, after drip.

[Assistant] Both "drip" and "French press" are the most common hands-off coffee brewing methods.


[User] What does it mean when someone says history is written by the winners? What is this referencing?

[Assistant] When someone mentions "History is written by the winners," they are typically talking about war. History books often do not tell all sides of the story. History is written from the perspective of the side that won. The context and seriousness of war are often forgotten and never fully understood except by the people that lived through it and were directly involved. Stories, both fiction and non-fiction, are told in movies and books about events such as the Holocaust and The Civil War but this is only a very tiny slice of history.

What is the tone of this review : (explain)

This article originally appeared in the October 2016 issue of ELLE.

Unhappy people unsettle me. Angry, unhappy people who blame my gender for their problems make me downright anxious. When those people happen to be women, and they identify the proximate cause of their woes as me, or men in general, or society at large (which is usually just their fancy way of saying "men in general"), I get positively upset. ("Oh, so now you're the victim, and people should just suck it up and get over those centuries of suffering and misogyny?" my girlfriend asks when I share my feelings on the subject—which seems to me sort of a trick question, and mean.)

Which brings me to The Bitch Is Back: Older, Wiser, and (Getting) Happier (William Morrow), a follow-up to the 2002 best-seller The Bitch in the House: 26 Women Tell the Truth About Sex, Solitude, Work, Motherhood, and Marriage. Before I get to my occasional sense of persecution and other ambivalent reactions to the latest book, a few disclaimers:

(1) Cathi Hanauer, the book's editor, is an old friend, and I've always considered her kind, hardworking, a talented novelist, a cheerfully solicitous mother, a loving wife (to a lucky guy who wasn't me), and an all-around good egg. It wasn't until I read The Bitch 1 (as Hanauer calls the original collection) that I realized that she was also often pissed off and miserable. She and her fellow travelers had been raised to believe that they could have satisfying careers, loving marriages, and fully integrated and happy lives as spouses, mothers, earners, leaders, and whatever else they wanted to be with the full support of their broad-minded partners and society at large. And then they got jobs and spouses and had children—and got mad.

(2) To point out to someone who's suffering that her unhappiness might be less the fault of society and more the result of something she is thinking or doing, well, that's a politically perilous move. Especially when the sufferer is part of a group that actually has been and often still is victimized, double especially when the pointer-outer belongs to the group that has historically been doing the victimizing. Yes, I'm a middle-aged white man. Unconscious privilege on my part? I think not. However, my girlfriend often begs to differ.

(3) My uneasiness/wounded feelings/testimony on behalf of The Patriarchy notwithstanding, I enjoyed both books. The writers are smart, engaging, and—even when I think they're blind to their own idiocy or the problems they're creating for themselves—compelling thinkers and storytellers.

In Bitch 2, Hanauer's shorthand for the second book, another 25 women (including 9 of the originals) grapple with the life choices they've made and ponder decisions that lie ahead. They wonder if cosmetic surgery is a betrayal of feminist principles or a recognition of professional reality. They explain why they left loveless marriages or put up with sexless ones. They regard a lust-fueled affair, appreciate their homemaker husbands, detail the rationale for declining to cut a Hawaiian vacation short to come home to Mom, who's suffered a stroke.

You might not be surprised to learn that I wondered why, if the bitch has already had her say, she was back. When I telephoned Hanauer to ask, she told me Bitch 2 was about women owning their choices. Less about blame, more about taking responsibility. "If the first book is about anger and urgency," she said, "this book is about wisdom, and the calm that comes after the storm. How did you channel all that anger from Bitch 1? How did you get to a better place?"

She told me that she herself was less riled up than she used to be, more accepting, if ruefully so. We talked about children and love and the political and the personal and therapy and mutual friends and why I'm not married. Then I told her that while I appreciated the humor and insight in the book, I didn't think the women from Bitch 2 were all that calm. I detected an undercurrent—still—of man-blaming, a sense that 14 years later, heterosexual marriage was still to these writers about as good for them as oleander. That many still viewed men as clueless at best. The happiest women in the book, I observed, seemed to be the one whose husband handled the child-rearing and homemaking, the single woman who wrote that "you need to be a whole person to invite someone into your life," and the lesbian who rediscovered her love for her wife while traveling in Paris.

Hanauer said that she too noted the emotional generosity in those three essays, as well as the lingering bad-mouthing of men. Did any instances particularly stick out? she asked me.

Actually, they did—and so I read a few aloud to her, including these two gems: "Men, by and large, demand more care and attention and daily propping up than dogs, and only the very best of them give a dog's worth of love back."

"During my pregnancy, I carried around phantom husbands. You will not be surprised to hear that one was supremely unhelpful."

"Men can't write that way about women, can they?" I asked Hanauer when I finished. "We're not allowed to, right?"

I mean, I got it. There was a lot of vile woman-hating out there, particularly online and anonymously. And yes, I didn't know what it felt like to be a woman, when something as simple as walking to the grocery store felt like dodging a group of two-legged predators. But c'mon, did it help anyone for women to engage in the generalized gender-bashing that they'd seen men indulging in their whole lives?

Hanauer laughed. "That's absolutely true," she said. "Women can say things about men that men can't say about women, especially if the men are married. Why? I don't know if men are nicer, or more polite. Or if women are the underdogs, so we get to say shit. The enlightened men don't trash their wives in public, and if they do, it comes off as horrible, but if women [trash their husbands], it's like, 'You go, girl.' "

That wasn't right, I thought. That wasn't fair.

But then, what did I know?

[Assistant] Balanced - The author of this article, who is a man tries to understand things from the woman's perspective. He owns his thoughts and feelings on the subject but also seems to sympathize with the women he references in his writing, even if he doesn't fully agree 100% with the views the women are expressing.

Theme in Yellow by Carl Sandburg

I spot the hills
With yellow balls in autumn.
I light the prairie cornfields
Orange and tawny gold clusters
And I am called pumpkins.
On the last of October
When dusk is fallen
Children join hands
And circle round me
Singing ghost songs
And love to the harvest moon;
I am a jack-o'-lantern
With terrible teeth
And the children know
I am fooling.

Classify the previous poem into one of the following holiday celebrations: New Year's Day, Christmas, Thanksgiving, Halloween.

[Assistant] Theme in Yellow by Carl Sandburg is a Halloween poem, as evidenced by its mention of autumn, October, pumpkins, ghost songs, and jack-o'-lanterns.


[User] Write a letter to the editor of a newspaper praising the work of paramedics who were able to assist in reviving a person who almost drowned at their local pool.

[Assistant]
Letter to the Editor:

I read the story you printed about the elderly man who almost drowned at the local pool and felt that I should add some context to that incident.

I was swimming at the pool that day as I normally do on the weekends, and I remember seeing the elderly man come into the pool to do his laps. I knew this man, as I had seen him every weekend when I would go swimming there at the pool. I did not know him personally, but he did seem friendly and we would wave and say hi to each other in passing.

On this particular day, I saw the man do a lap in the pool, go underwater, and then not come back up. I began to worry as about 10-20 seconds had passed and he never surfaced. I decided to check on him, and when I swam to him I saw he was lying on the bottom of the pool, appearing to be unresponsive. I dove down to the man and pulled him up to the surface and started doing CPR on him.

Luckily, medics responded quickly to our location and take over chest compressions and rescue breaths. One of the medics told me that I did a good job doing CPR on the man and that it may have saved his life. The medic also told me that they were able to get a pulse on the man and that they would transport him to the hospital for evaluation.

I just wanted to write this letter to let you and your readers know that I was extremely proud of the work the medics did in applying life-saving measures to the man. I also heard that he has since been released from the hospital in better health. If he is reading this, I want to tell him that I don't know what caused him to almost drown, but I hope and pray for better health for him, and am glad he is doing better.


[User] Write a gripping opening paragraph of a short story. Theme: Post-apocalyptic, female character, survival.

[Assistant] Amelia tries to survive by scavenging among the ruins of what is left of the destroyed world. She hasn’t eaten in three days and desperately searches for food. The loss of her family, never-ending hunger pangs, and the uncertainty of tomorrow plague her every moment. She finds a rundown building and climbs a staircase into a vast hallway. Suddenly she hears heavy footsteps coming from the floor above. Gripped with panic, she runs to the nearest door. She throws it open and finds herself in a small dusty library. The steps are getting closer and closer, and she can hear doors being kicked in. She hides. Curled up behind a wooden desk, she quietly holds her breath and listens, silently praying that she won’t be found. The steps are getting nearer and nearer, and then they stop.


[User] What are some of the piercings called that you can get on your face?

[Assistant] There are several different types of face piercings. One type is called eye piercing, where the piercing is on the eyelid. There is also the anti-eyebrow piercing, which is also known as a butterfly piercing or teardrop piercing, that is located just above the cheekbone. Another type of face piercing is the bridge piercing, which goes through the bridge of the nose.

[User] Can you write me silly short story about a lion cub who is friends with a ghost and how they get into mischief? Make sure the lion cub has an interesting trait (like he is a good singer or a magician or something like that.)

[Assistant] There once was a little lion cub named Jeffrey who was best friends with a little friendly ghost named Millie. Jeffrey and Millie loved playing tricks on all of the animals. Sometimes they would have Jeffrey distract them with his beautiful singing while Millie would untie their shoes and retie them to each other's shoes! This would make the animals trip all over themselves as they tried to walk away. Other times, Jeffrey would open his mouth to sing but Millie's voice would come out (which was not beautiful) and all of the other animals would run away screaming. Jeffrey and Millie would laugh and laugh at their silly pranks. However, one day soon, their antics would catch up to them. But that is a story for another day.


[User] Please write an urgent letter to the mayor asking for money to renovate an old apartment building to provide housing for the homeless in the town of Carrington. The letter should be no more than 250 words.

[Assistant]
Dear Mr. Mayor,

Thank you for taking the time to read my letter. This is an urgent matter and I hope that this letter will lead to further discussion. There is an old apartment complex a few blocks from my house that has been dormant for the last five years. It says it's for sale, however, nobody has bought it yet. It seems that there is too much to fix and nobody wants the hassle of fixing it. As I drive by it every day, I see so much potential for this old complex to become a beacon of hope for the homeless in our community. As you know, there is a large homeless population in Carrington that has had trouble getting on their feet. In order to get them off the street and give them a clean, safe place to live, I am asking for one million dollars to renovate and fix the apartment complex. With a place to live, they would have a better chance to get a job and become productive members of our community. This matter is very urgent and I would love to discuss further when you have a few spare moments. Please, Mr. Mayor, help us fix our beloved community.

Thank you for your time.

Thank you,
A concerned citizen

How fast can these shrimp fire their claws? What is the energy from the claw similar to? Use the provided text for your response.

But it was unclear how early in their lives the shrimp could use this weaponry. “We knew that the snapping shrimp did this really impressive behavior,” Harrison says. “But we really didn’t know anything about how this mechanism developed.”

While a grad student at Duke University, Harrison and his adviser, biomechanist Sheila Patek, reared bigclaw snapping shrimp (Alpheus heterochaelis) from eggs in the laboratory. At 1 month old, the tiny shrimp — less than a centimeter long — began firing their claws when disturbed. The researchers took high-speed video footage of these snaps and calculated their speed.

The wee shrimp could create the collapsing bubbles just like adults. Despite being a tenth the adults’ size or smaller, the juveniles’ claws accelerated 20 times as fast when firing. This acceleration — about 600 kilometers per second per second — is on “the same order of magnitude as a 9-millimeter bullet leaving a gun,” Harrison says.

[Assistant] These shrimp fire their claws at a speed of 600 kilometers per second. This is similar to the energy at which a 9-millimeter bullet is fired from a gun.


[User] I'm working on a character sketch for a backyard chicken that has big dreams of breaking out and seeing the world. Write a journal entry as if you were the chicken and mention your escape plans and what you hope to see once you get out.

[Assistant]
Dear Journal,

Since I'm writing you today, it means I haven't made my escape. But the day is coming soon enough. I've mapped out my plan and made arrangements with the dog, Buster, to cover for me. Tonight, once the humans go to sleep, I'll sneak out of my coop and hop up on the stack of crates the old man left near the fence line. It's hard for chickens to fly, you know, our rotund midsections weigh us down, but we can catch some air. Once I've made it atop the crates, I should be able to hop onto the fence post and glide down into the front yard. From there, I'm free at last.

Buster says he'll stay up late and guard the back door, alerting me if the humans head my way. But once I'm out front, I'm on my own. That's fine by me, though. I have plans. Big plans. First of all, I'm going to cross the road. I've gotta see what the hype is all about. Then, I'm going to waddle down the sidewalk in the direction the sun sets. I've heard a rooster hollering in that direction and I think I'd like to make a new feathered friend. Hopefully, things go well with the roo and maybe I'll break him out of prison too. We could scavenge together, making a picnic of worms, crickets, and anything we can find.

I'm not saying I will do it, but IF things don't go as planned or I get homesick, I think I can find my way back home. But jumping back into the yard could be problematic. I suppose if it comes to that, I could just wait on the front porch for the humans to find me and scoop me up. Of course, I wouldn't let them win so easily. I'd make them chase me around the front yard first.

Anyway, that's the plan and tonight's the night. Now, I've gotta go fill up on mealworms. I'm going to need all the stored energy I can get.

Until next time... if I make it back that is.

Summarize the use of the pilum in the battle of Pharsalus

In 48 BC, Pompey the Great attempted to use it against Julius Caesar at the Battle of Pharsalus, in what was to be the decisive battle of the Great Roman Civil War. Caesar countered this by ambushing Pompey's "hammer" element with a hidden fourth line of infantry;[5] Pompey's infantry was to be the anvil while his cavalry 'hammer' encircled Caesar's left flank. There was significant distance between the two armies, according to Caesar.[6]
As the infantry of Caesar advanced, Pompey ordered his men not to charge, but to wait until Caesar's legions came into close quarters; Pompey's adviser Gaius Triarius believed that Caesar's infantry would be fatigued and fall into disorder if they were forced to cover twice the expected distance of a battle march. Also, stationary troops were expected to be able to defend better against pila throws.[7] Seeing that Pompey's army was not advancing, Caesar's infantry under Mark Antony and Gnaeus Domitius Calvinus started the advance. As Caesar's men neared throwing distance, without orders, they stopped to rest and regroup before continuing the charge;[8] Pompey's right and centre line held as the two armies collided. Caesar countered this by positioning the reserves of his 4th line to intercept the attacking cavalry.
As Pompey's infantry fought, Labienus ordered the Pompeian cavalry on his left flank to attack Caesar's cavalry; as expected they successfully pushed back Caesar's cavalry. Caesar then revealed his hidden fourth line of infantry and surprised Pompey's cavalry charge; Caesar's men were ordered to leap up and use their pila to thrust at Pompey's cavalry instead of throwing them. Pompey's cavalry panicked and suffered hundreds of casualties, as Caesar's cavalry came about[9] and charged after them. After failing to reform, the rest of the Pompey's cavalry retreated to the hills, leaving the left wing of Pompey's legions exposed to the hidden troops as Caesar's cavalry wheeled around their flank. Caesar then ordered in his third line, containing his most battle-hardened veterans, to attack. This broke Pompey's left wing troops, who fled the battlefield.[10]

[Assistant] Pompey the Great expected the pila employed by Julius Caesar’s troops to be used as throwing weapons. He consequently ordered his troops to refrain from charging, in part to better defend against them. The hidden fourth line of infantry Caesar employed against Pompey’s cavalry did not throw their pila, but instead used them as thrusting weapons.

[User] How do I paint my room?

[Assistant] Why do you want to paint your room and what color are you thinking?

[User] I need a change and think it will freshen my space with the color blue.

[Assistant] What shade of blue are you thinking light or dark?

[User] I just want the steps to paint my room.

[Assistant]
Ok first properly prepare the space. Clean the walls with a damp cloth. Then, use a putty knife to fill any nail holes or cracks in the wall.
Once the wall is clean apply a primer to help the paint adhere better and provide an even finish. Once the primer is dry, you can begin painting.
Using a roller to apply the paint in a W-shaped pattern, being careful to avoid excessive dripping or pooling.


[User] Write a descriptive story piece about a bear eating breakfast in the morning. They are having 2 pieces of toast.

[Assistant]
Once upon a time, there lived a brown bear living in a house in the forest. The bear had fur as brown as the bark on the trees. Its claws were as sharp as a chef's favorite set of knives. One day the bear was eating breakfast in the morning. He decided before going out for the day that he would like two slices of toast. With his sharp claws, he sliced two slices of bread off a fresh loaf that he bought from a neighbor bear. The brown bear added light butter to the bread before placing the bread in the toaster. The bear liked his toast crispy, so before pressing down the button on the toaster, he turned the knob to six. After pressing down the switch on the toaster, the bear decided to clean himself up and get ready for the day. He walks outside and grabs a bucket of water from the well. The water would be his beverage alongside the toast. He places the bucket on the table and sits down, waiting for the eventual moment that the toast is ready.

*Click!*

The toast pops out with gusto, and the brown bear places the two pieces of toast on a plate. The surface of the toast was a golden brown, like fresh honey from a bee's nest. The bear grabs a knife, and some strawberry preserves from the shelf. He slowly slathers the toast with the preserves and relishes in the sound of the knife scratching alongside the toast. It felt like pure bliss, like when you realize you've done a job right. With the preserves on the toast, the bear takes a big bite out of it. The taste of toasted bread and artificial strawberry flavor sent the bear to another world of enjoyment. The bear takes a sip of the well water, washing down the intense flavor and confirming that he made the right choice today. After devouring the second piece and chugging down the rest of the water in the bucket, the bear cleans himself up and prepares himself for the day ahead. Toast and strawberry preserves were the perfect way to start the day.


[User] Create a recipe article for dessert nachos. The recipe should not include anything that is in traditional nachos, besides the chips. Use paragraph form for the instructions and bullets for the ingredients. Take the perspective of a pregnant woman having cravings for weird food.

[Assistant]
Do you have a hankering for nachos, but also have a strong desire for sugar? Well, so do I. Mothers know that pregnancy comes with cravings for the weirdest food. You get something in your head, and nothing can stop you from tasting the treat that you imagined. At 4 months pregnant with my last child, I realized there may be a market for the odd recipes that I have grown to love and am returning to during this pregnancy. I promise this is a simple recipe that can be made on a single plate with the use of a microwave. This recipe can be customized to your liking, so everything besides the chips is optional. Maybe you are a chocolate lover, or maybe you prefer fruity sweets. If you are feeling especially health conscious, then you can use fruit instead of candy toppings.

 Suggested Ingredients:
- Enough nacho chips to cover a plate
- Chocolate, strawberry, or caramel syrup
- Whipped cream
- Skittles
- M&Ms
- Reese's
-Fruit

Nachos are a relatively easy dish to make, so I will not go overboard with instructions. First, you should heat the chips in the microwave for about 10 seconds. Next, you will want to add the syrup of your choosing. This will be the replacement for cheese in this recipe. It will allow everything to stick to your chips. Next, you should add the candy of your choice. You can choose to mix up the chips slightly so that your chips are covered in toppings. Last, you will want to put a healthy topping of whipped cream on top. Remember that this recipe can be customized in any way that your cravings demand. Have a happy pregnancy!

[User] Write a concerned letter from me, to the Brentwood Homeowners Association, about the hit-and-run accident that happened last Friday, injuring a 80-year-old. People are always getting struck by cars in the neighborhood, and I've even seen animals get injured due to wreckless drivers not obeying the 45mph speed limit. The letters' purpose is to ask for the speed limit to be reduced to 35mph, and that speed humps be installed on the busiest streets in the subdivision. Say something about wanting "our" kids to be safe. Right now kids can't even ride their bikes, mention that too. Outline the reasons, starting with hyphens, why the speed humps will be advantageous to the residents. The reasons are: speed reduction, drivers are more aware at slower speeds, kids will be safer, and it will keep the drivers car safe from damage, you can elaborate on these points to make them sound better. Keep it under 350 words, though, and sign it "Janie Briggs".

[Assistant]
Brentwood Homeowners' Association,

I am writing this letter in regard to the recent hit-and-run accident that occurred last Friday in our subdivision, involving an 80-year-old resident. This was not the first accident that occurred in our subdivision, and it won't be the last unless we address the matter appropriately. There has been an ongoing safety concern for some time now, with the speed limit on our streets at 45mph, which drivers carelessly ignore. Many residents complain about their children not being able to even ride a bike because they fear for their safety, which is understandable. I have personally witnessed innocent animals fall victim to the wreckless driving as well. It's time to take action!
Our neighborhood is not safe anymore, and we need to step up to enforce new rules, and implement additional features to reduce speeds. What I am requesting is for the HOA to install speed humps in the areas with the most traffic that have proven to be a concern. I feel it is also important that we change the speed limit to 35, which is the standard for neighborhoods this size.

The speed humps are beneficial because:

-The humps cause drivers to slow down considerably, at a rate of 10-15 mph. This encourages drive responsibly, and increases the safety of residents.
-Drivers who slow down are more aware of their surroundings, and more likely to read the signs posted near the humps.
-If drivers ignore the humps, they are likely to damage their vehicle.
-Our children are less likely to be hit by a car if this safety feature is installed.

I am very optimistic and hopeful for the installation to take place, to reduce the hazards we are now experiencing. Please take into consideration these additions that I have outlined for the safety of our residents.

Sincerely,
Janie Briggs


[User] Please write a story that involves a goldfish and a shark who are best friends and are going to play darts together at an underwater casino. The goldfish's name is Ralph and the shark's name is Finley. Please keep it under 300 words. Throw in a plot twist.

[Assistant]
Ralph and Finley were best friends and they had been for a long time. Every Monday and Thursday, they would go to the local underwater casino. There, Ralph and Finley usually hung out and talked for hours while playing darts.

Today was Thursday, so Ralph and Finley headed to the casino. They played darts for hours. Ralph won the first game of cricket, a dart game where the goal is to hit the same number on the dartboard three times. Finley absolutely crushed Ralph in the second game of cricket, leaving Ralph with only three total points. Finley cleared the rest of the board.

The third game came down to the wire, with both Ralph and Finley within 10 points of each other for the entire game. Ralph eventually lost when Finley hit the 11 on the board to leapfrog Ralph for the win.

Just as Finley had won, a blind electric eel challenged Finley to a game of cricket, declaring that the winner would get 500 dollars. Finley agreed.

Given that the eel was blind, Finley let him go first. The eel threw the first dart, hitting the bullseye. Finley looked at Ralph and Ralph looked at Finley. They knew right then that they were in trouble. The eel's second shot hit the bullseye, too. Then the third. The eel cleared the board without giving Finley a single point. Finley and Ralph, stunned, asked the eel how he managed to hit every point on the board. The eel laughed and said, "Don't worry about it. It's all a bit of luck, I'm sure." Finley and Ralph left the casino that night feeling like they got hustled. They never saw the blind eel again.

ALEXANDRIA, EGYPT — Bassma Mohamed stares at her reflection in the giant mirror hanging on the studio wall. Dressed in all black except for the purple on her glasses, she is focused and unwavering in her determination to follow her ballet teacher and perfect every plié, relevé and tendu.

Her mom, wearing a denim skirt and green headscarf, is huddled with a group of other mothers crowding the doorway, watching with pride as she jumps and twirls.

When Bassma meets her mom's eye, she winks at her and smiles.

There is nothing out of the ordinary at this small ballet studio in Egypt, except many of the dancers have special needs, including Bassma.
“These aren’t just my ballerinas,” says their teacher, Haidy Samir. “They are my daughters. Their mothers are my sisters. We’ve been together for years, we travel together, we eat together, we are family.”

Arts Studio, perched inconspicuously between a makeup store and a bakery in Alexandria’s Smouha district, opened in August 2022 with one goal: to create a space where anyone, no matter age or disability, can fulfill their dream of dancing ballet.

Haidy Samir teaches ballet at the Arts Studio. She pitched the idea to make it inclusive for those with disabilities.
Owned by lifelong ballerina Noha Wasfy, Arts Studio is one of — perhaps the only — facility in the Mediterranean city that does not segregate special-needs students.

Of the 70 dancers enrolled, 10 have special needs, including autism and Down syndrome.
The inclusive space is a rarity in the region, where people with special needs don’t have many opportunities to live full lives or integrate with the wider community, especially after they complete their schooling.

[Assistant]
Bassma Mohamed is looking at herself in a big mirror in a big room. She is dressed all in black but she has purple on her glasses. She is listening to her ballet teacher and trying very hard to do the ballet moves that her teacher is showing her. They are called plié, relevé and tendu.

Her mom is watching from a doorway nearby with the other mothers. The mother is wearing a blue skirt and she has a green scarf on her head. She is very proud of her daughter as Bassma jumps and twirls. Bassma sees her mother and smiles and winks at her. This is just a small ballet studio in Egypt. But many of the dancers including Bassma have special needs.

The teacher's name is Haidy Samir. She said that she cares about her students so much that she thinks of them as her daughters. She thinks of their mothers as her sisters. She thinks of all of them as her family.

Arts Studio is the name of the ballet studio. It is between a makeup store and a bakery in the city of Alexandria, in a district called Smouha. It was opened in August 2022. The main goal of the ballet studio was to let everyone learn ballet no matter how old they are or if they have a disability of some kind.

It was Haidy Samir's idea to have a ballet studio that included everyone, especially those with disabilities.

The Arts Studio is owned by Noha Wasfy who has been a ballerina all her life. It is probably the only studio in this city that does not make special needs students be in their own separate classes.

At the Arts Studio, out of 70 dancing students, 10 of those students have special needs including autism and Down syndrome.

This special studio is very unusual. Most of the time, people with special needs don't have the chance to take classes like everyone else in the neighborhood, especially after they leave regular school.


[User] Can you please create a short story about a 12-year-old kid named James who is trying to go to school and is encountering all sorts of obstacles along the way? Let's make sure that the story has a happy ending and that he manages to make it to his class on time, but the obstacles he encounters should make the reader doubt that he will make it while they are reading the story. Let's make the story four paragraphs long.

[Assistant]
Once upon a time, there was a twelve-year-old kid named James. James woke up one morning just like any other to get ready to go to school. James' first class started at 8:00 AM each day, so to get to school he needed to be on the bus by 7:30. But today James woke up late and missed the bus! He ran outside with his backpack only to see the bus already headed off down the street.

Since his parents had already gone to work, James knew that he had to come up with another way of getting to school on time. He hopped on his bicycle and took off in the direction of the school. He knew the route well enough to get there but he wasn't sure if he could get to school fast enough. When he was halfway there, James started to think there was a chance he could make it. Suddenly, the bike's tire ran over a nail and popped!

Now what could he do?! James was sure he wouldn't make it to class on time without his bike but he also wasn't one to give up. He abandoned the bike and started running down the street. He checked his watch and saw that he only had ten minutes left, and yet he was still far away! James stopped and panted and tried to catch his breath. He was sure he wouldn't make it to class on time now.

Then a truck pulled up next to James. The man driving the truck rolled down his window and explained that he saw what had happened and had placed James' bike in the bed of the truck. He asked James if needed a ride somewhere and James said "Yes, I need a ride to school." The man obliged, and when they arrived the man set the bike outside so that James could retrieve it at the end of the school day. James thanked the man and ran inside the school building. After all that trouble, he had made it to class right on time after all.

3. "The Summer Day" by Mary Oliver is a poem about contemplating your life's meaning and then trying to make the best of it


[User] Write a pep talk a coach might give his basketball team during the halftime break, despite the team losing by 10 points.

[Assistant]
Alright, guys, listen up.

We played an excellent first half. We're only down by 10 points, but that's because they caught a run down the stretch using plays that exposed our man in the paint. They're switching the assignments on us pretty regularly, and I think that's what's making it hard to defend.

The next half is gonna require us to fall back to our basics. We're gonna go back to the box-and-one, and any time they wanna penetrate, the help needs to close the box quickly. That means our man in the paint will be able to double-team the forwards when they try to go to the basket.

Trust me, guys. You're playing excellent ball. The other team is just throwing everything they can at us to see what sticks, and, credit to them, some of what they're doing works. But we're hip to what they're doing now, and once we revert to the box-and-one the defense will be able to make the stops we need to keep them in check.

Offense-wise, we're doing everything we wanted to do. Our shots are falling, and as soon as they decide to screen we're already rolling to the basket for the easy give-and-go layups. Keep doing what you're doing on offense; don't change a thing, just keep plugging away, and we'll be back on top.

Overall, just keep doing what you're doing. We're in great position. Once the time comes to pull away, we'll be able to do it—just need to adjust the defense and keep scoring at will like we've been doing so far.

Bulldogs on three. One, two, three! BULLDOGS!

Turn this Reddit post into an email from the writer to the cousin James, explaining his point of view and reasons for not being a free videographer.

I went to school for film and have a job doing nature videos and stock videos for advertisements.
This week I was going to my cousin James wedding on Wednesday afternoon. I RSVP months ago. I left all of my equipment at home because of its my vacation so why lug it around with me. I get to my grandma’s house on Friday and she’s shocked that I didn’t bring any cameras or anything. She tells me I’m supposed to record my cousin’s wedding for him. She volunteered me. I politely declined saying it was a party I was invited to as a guest. My cousin and family members can’t believe I forgot my equipment at home. My mom already told them I wasn’t doing it and it was rude to expect it from me for free. This whole conversation happened without my knowledge. My cousin said I could rent the equipment myself at my own expense as a gift. I declined again and I have a family member saying I could use their newest iPhone because the specs are better than most professional cameras these days (not exactly true but ok) I tried explaining again that I wanted to be present as guest for my cousin at the wedding. This morning my mom and I was disinvited from the bbq and wedding unless I record the wedding for my cousin. My grandma gave me until tonight to find a hotel room and I’m being difficult because videographer are expensive. I was supposed to help my cousin save money and now he’s scrambling at the last minute because his bride is angry at our whole side of the family because I’m selfish. It’s making the whole family look bad.

[Assistant]
Dear James,

There appears to have been a miscommunication regarding my attendance at your wedding on Wednesday. I arrived at my grandmother's house on Friday prepared to celebrate your marriage as a guest but was questioned immediately about my lack of filming equipment. It was then I learned that my grandma had volunteered my services as a videographer without my consent. I have learned that my mom got involved and informed you that I would not be working for free. Again, this conversation happened without my knowledge.

Since I did not bring my equipment with me, you suggested that I rent equipment on my own dime as a wedding gift to you and your bride. I declined. Another family member suggested I borrow their iPhone to film the event, but again I declined. Once again, I explained that I did not want to work, did not expect to work, and wanted to attend and celebrate your wedding as a guest.

This was apparently unacceptable as you disinvited both my mother and me from your wedding events unless I agree to work for free as your videographer. My grandmother is also kicking me out of her home because I will not be your free videographer. The whole family is mad at me for not working for free, but this was not something I ever agreed to. You never spoke to me about this.

Please let me know when you would like to speak about this.


[User] Please write a short story about a happy little boat. The boat is named Charlie, and loves to eat ice cream. The ice cream shop owner, Mr. Freeze, gets angry at Charlie for eating all his ice cream. He tries to catch Charlie. Keep the tone light hearted, and give the story a happy ending.

[Assistant]
Once upon a time, there was a happy little boat named Charlie. Charlie spent his days chugging along in the sea. There was one thing Charlie loved more than anything else in the world, ice cream. At night, Charlie would sneak onto the land, go to various ice cream shops, and eat all the yummy ice cream. One day, Charlie went to Mr. Freeze's store and eat all of the rocky road ice cream. Mr. Freeze was upset.

Mr. Freeze set up a trap to catch Charlie. When Charlie entered the shop, a freeze ray would fire and freeze Charlie. When Mr. Freeze was setting up the trap, he accidentally fired the ray and froze himself. Charlie took the opportunity to eat all the ice cream in the store. "You darn boat," said Mr. Freeze when Charlie eat all the ice cream. Charlie felt bad and unfroze Mr. Freeze. The two became best friends and always shared ice cream from that day on.

In the following review does the reviewer find the album favorable or unfavorable and why?

A classic recording of sorts, features Last of the Famous International Playboys, a good example of Morrissey's wit, odd 80's poetry, gliding charisma, and of course the mixture of effete vocals and classic fifties style that's defined his persona for years.

The rest is pretty good, but of course, the drums and guitars are sometimes a little too slick and lightweight for people used to the plunging soft-focus menace of tracks like "That Joke Isn't Funny Anymore" or earlier Smiths' classics.

[Assistant] The reviewer finds the album favorable. They mention how they liked the wit and charisma of Morrissey as well as his vocals and style.

Please rewrite this article from the perspective of the spy whale, as if it was reporting to its Russian handler.

People should “avoid contact” with a famous beluga whale to avoid accidentally injuring or killing it, the Norwegian Directorate of Fisheries has said.

The whale, nicknamed Hvaldimir, shot to international fame in 2019 after it was spotted wearing a specially made harness with mounts for a camera, leading experts to believe the whale may have been trained by the Russian military.

Since 2019, it has “been traveling along the Norwegian coast” with a few stops along the way, according to the directorate, which added that Hvaldimir “tends to stay at farms where it has been able to catch fish, grazing on surplus feed.”

Hvaldimir is known to follow boats and play with those on board.

The whale, which is a protected species in Norway, now lives in inner Oslofjord, the directorate said.

This “means that it has arrived in a very densely populated area, and the risk that the whale may be injured due to human contact has become significantly greater,” it added.

In a statement on Wednesday, Fisheries Director Frank Bakke-Jensen said that “so far there have only been minor incidents where the whale has suffered minor injuries, primarily from contact with boats.”

But he urged people to keep their distance, “even though the whale is tame and used to being around people.”

“We especially encourage people in boats to keep a good distance to avoid the whale being injured or, in the worst case, killed by boat traffic,” said Bakke-Jensen.

Given the dangers, Bakke-Jensen was asked whether the whale should be placed in captivity.

“We have always communicated that the whale in question is a free-living animal and we see no reason to capture it and put it behind barriers,” he said.

However, now that the whale is “in a more vulnerable area and access to food may be limited, we will consider different measures,” added Bakke-Jensen. “But it is too early to say anything concrete about that yet.”

[Assistant]
Agent Hvaldimir checking in.

I have been spotted by the Norwegian government. The Director of Fisheries has ordered people to "avoid contact" with me. Publically it is stated this is to avoid injuring or killing me.

Despite my efforts, I have become something of an international celebrity after I was first spotted in 2019. Onlookers took note of my specially made harness and camera mounts. Leading experts then publically declared that I may have been trained by the Russian military.

Since 2019, I have been traveling along the Norwegian coast, making a few stops at places of interest. I make sure to stay at farms where I can feed and refresh to better prepare for my duties. I also follow suspicious boats and lure them into a false sense of security with my playful nature.

I have learned that I am considered a protected species in Norway, no doubt why I was assigned to this area. I am currently in inner Oslofjord. This is a very densely populated area. There is a lot of opportunity to gather information here, but it is also very dangerous for me.

So far I have only suffered minor injuries from boats. Hopefully, the government's warning to keep away from me will serve me well and protect me from further injury. I fear being lost in the line of duty due to the boat traffic in the area.

 I have recently come across some intelligence indicating that Norway may be in the early stages of planning my capture. I will further be monitoring public and private channels for more information.


[User] Write a very short story about a girl with a very tall hat with Anubias flowers on top.

[Assistant] There once was a girl named Susan who loved to wear a very tall pink hat with flowers on top. No matter where she went, people would stare at her hat in awe, and she loved all of the attention. One day, while she was walking through a park, a gust of wind blew her hat off her head where it floated into a nearby pond. She was devastated, but as she reached into the water to retrieve her hat, she realized that the flowers had bloomed even more beautifully underwater. It turns out that the flowers on her hat were rare Anubias flowers and bloomed beautifully underwater. From then on, she wore her hat even more proudly, knowing that its true beauty was not in its height or pretty color, but in the unique flowers that adorned it.

I’m sorry that I don’t see you as often as I’d like, but you are always in my heart and on my mind. I miss you dearly, and I can’t wait to see you soon. You’re not just my mom, you’re my best friend.

I love you more than words could ever say.

[User] So I'm working on a sort of lighter, skirmisher kind of character for my turn-based tactical game. What are some of the abilities that would work for them?

[Assistant]
Sure, I can help you brainstorm such a character's abilities. Here are some that may make them a useful addition to the player's team:

1. Maneuver: This ability would allow the character to traverse enemy-controlled tiles without inciting attacks of opportunity. It would allow the player to outflank the enemy or to get at a guarded enemy or objective.
2. Blink: By blinking, the character can teleport a short distance directly to a tile in front of them. This would allow the character to bypass defenses and obstacles that would have otherwise taken several turns to break down.
3. Sneak Attack: As a flanker, the character would specialize in doing their best work behind enemy lines and from advantageous positions. Their skillset would not only include abilities that would allow them to get to such advantageous positions but also to maximize their advantage when there. Sneak Attack, which could ensure a guaranteed critical on the next attack by the character, would fit well into this role.
4. Caltrops: The character can toss caltrops upon the ground, slowing or outright immobilizing enemies caught in them. This would help to redirect enemy movements and to prevent more powerful enemies from catching up with the character.
5: Sucker Punch: When cornered by a formidable enemy, Sucker Punch can disable them for one turn, rendering them unable to perform attacks of opportunity. This would be ideal for getting out of danger from a more powerful opponent.
6. Second Wind: By activating Second Wind, the character can regain their movement points. This would allow the lightly equipped skirmisher character to traverse the entire map easily, suiting their role as a flanker.

Please ask if you would like me to brainstorm any other character abilities.


[User] Write a short story about tardiness from the perspective of the white rabbit in Alice in Wonderland.

[Assistant]
Oh my goodness! There was once a girl who was late. She was always late for everything. She was late for school, meeting friends, appointments, and just about everything else. She is late today for a very important event. Today was her graduation and she was not ready. She had her gown and her shoes and her hat, but no car keys. How was she going to graduate without a way to get to her school? A problem indeed. What shall she do? Well, first she paces back and forth like she always does, asking herself a million questions. Where could she have left those keys? Were they under her bed? No. Were they in the bathroom? No. Were they on the kitchen counter? No.

She puts her hands on her head and closed her eyes. "Now, where would I be if I were keys?" She sat there in silence for a moment and just stared at the wall. "If I don't hurry, I'll miss the whole thing and I do not like to be late. I'm always though." Today, she thought, could be different. She still had time to get there, or so she thought. The girl stood up and straightened her dress, then started going down a list of places it could be. "I'm sure it's not here or here or here." This went on for about 20 minutes. She was getting more and more nervous than one would get if they were running behind. "Tardiness isn't acceptable today," She said aloud. "I cannot be late." Growing ever more frustrated, the girl started running in circles around her house. She was getting more and more frustrated and nervous. She could hear the hands of the clock ticking louder and louder.

The girl closed her eyes and screamed. It was the longest, loudest scream she had ever screamed, but it felt very good. She opened her eyes and stood up. Suddenly, she had an idea. She looked to her right at the wall. There on a hook were the car keys. They were there the whole time. "No time to waste," She replied as she grabbed them and ran out the door. A moment later, the door opened and she ran in to grab her graduation hat. "Today is going to be a great day," With that, she hopped out the door.


[User] Write a song about salt breaking up with pepper that sounds like Ben Harper wrote it.

[Assistant]
**Verse 1**
Salt and pepper, once everyone's perfect pair
They seasoned everything with such love and care
But the time has now come for them to say goodbye
As the strong bond they shared has withered and died

**Chorus**
Salt's breaking up with pepper
They thought it would be forever
But it's time for new beginnings
To spread their wings and start living

**Verse 2**
Salt says to Pepper, "I just need some space"
But Pepper just cannot believe what is taking place
They used to compliment each other, now it's just a fight
Over who goes on what and who is wrong or right

**Chorus**
Salt's breaking up with pepper
They thought it would be forever
But it's time for new beginnings
To spread their wings and start living

**Bridge**
Through crying eyes, it's tough to say goodbye
To a love that had grown so strong
But sometimes it's just better to be apart
Then to push and try to carry on
Maybe someday they will reconcile
But now they'll go it alone for a while

**Chorus**
Salt's breaking up with pepper
They thought it would be forever
But it's time for new beginnings
To spread their wings and start living

**Outro:**
Salt and pepper, they may have split
But a love like theirs will never quit
All those memories made, they will last
The flavors they bring, never in the past

[User] What is the historical significance of this address: 53 Christopher Street, New York, NY 10014?

[Assistant] 53 Christopher Street, New York, NY 10014 is the address for The Stonewall Inn. The location's historical significance is tied to LGBTQIA+ history. On June 28, 1969, police stormed the gay bar and arrested multiple people. Patrons resisted and riots broke out between patrons and the police. The Stonewall uprising, as it was known, lasted six days and solidified a key moment in the LGBTQIA+ civil rights movement. Marsha P. Johnson, a self-identified drag queen and prominent gay liberation activist, was one of the most well-known participants in the event.  In 1999, The Stonewall Inn was listed on the National Register of Historic Places and was the first LGBTQIA+ location to appear on the register. In 2000, it was named a National Historic Landmark. The Stonewall Inn was designated a New York City Landmark in 2015, then a State Historic Site in 2016 - as part of the Stonewall National Monument. Today, June is celebrated as LGBTQIA+ Pride Month in commemoration of the Stonewall uprising.


[User] Write about a ship whose crew uses the vessel to travel to different dimensions. The theme should be similar to Treasure Planet. You will describe what dimensions they encounter, what hijinks they find themselves in, etc.

[Assistant]
A group of brave souls sailed the great cosmic sea aboard the Stellar Horizon, which served as a gateway to unknown realms. They set off on a quest to find treasures beyond their wildest dreams in the magical planes of the multiverse, guided by Captain Orion, a daring and charming explorer.
The Dimension of Whispers, a place where words might turn into ethereal wisps holding secrets and predictions, was their first visit. The team used their proficiency in languages to solve intricate puzzles and uncover hidden messages that lead them to the locations of forgotten knowledge.
They then traveled to the Dimension of Mirrors, a place where reflections came to life. The gang ended themselves stranded in a hall of mirrors, chasing their own reflections and running across cunning doppelgängers. To break the enchantment and escape unharmed, the team required all their clever thinking and teamwork.
The ship entered a starless abyss in the Dimension of Eternal Night, where darkness reigned unchallenged. Glowing creatures emerged from the depths, their bioluminescence guiding the crew in the direction of the fabled Luminara Crystal, a brilliant gem with the ability to shine light into the darkest corners of the universe.
The crew's journey brought them to the Dimension of Dreams, a place where imagination was supreme. Their desires and worries manifested in vivid shapes as they came across colorful creatures and fantastical environments. The group discovered the importance of embracing the unexpected and holding onto their dreams throughout the chaos.
They discovered an ancient civilization frozen in time, eternally trapped in an eternal moment, in the Dimension of Timeless Sands. The group uncovered the key to unlocking time's flow, bringing life back to the frozen metropolis, and revealing the secrets of bygone periods with their keen intellect and creativity.
The team faced many challenges during their voyage, including dodging dangerous storms in the Dimension of Tempests and outwitting crafty tricksters in the Dimension of Illusions. Nevertheless, they stayed together, their friendship and dedication carrying them through each difficult circumstance.


[User] Can you write a glossary covering the different types of coal and information about coal?

[Assistant]
Coal Glossary

1. Anthracite: The highest rank of coal. It is a hard and shiny coal with high carbon content and low volatile matter.

2. Bituminous: A type of coal with a high heating value, commonly used for electricity generation and steel making. It appears smooth and shiny with alternating layers.

3. Subbituminous: A dull and black coal with moderate heating value, often used in electricity generation.

4. Lignite: Also known as brown coal, lignite is the lowest grade coal with low heating value and high moisture content. It is mainly used for electricity generation.

5. Peat: The precursor to coal is a soft material consisting of partly decayed plant matter. Under pressure and heat, this transforms into coal.

6. Mining: The process of extracting coal from the Earth's crust. This involves underground or surface mining methods, depending on the depth of the coal deposits.

7. Coal Ash: The residue left after coal is burned in power plants. Ash contains various minerals and can be used in applications such as cement production.

8. Coal Seam: A layer of coal embedded within sedimentary rock. Coal seams can vary in thickness and quality, and they are the main source of coal extraction.


[User] Provide a brief description for how to play the card game Solitaire.

[Assistant]
The objective of the game Solitaire is to organize the cards based on suit. The playing area is called a tableau which consists of seven card piles.  Four foundation piles are needed, one for each suit that runs from Ace to King.  The stockpile is the set of cards not being used to create the tableau.
The game begins with a deck of 52 shuffled playing cards. Begin by creating your tableau, placing one card for each of the seven piles. In descending order, place additional cards on the piles so that the first pile has only one card, the second has two, and so forth with the last pile having seven cards all face down.  The remaining cards are placed in a stockpile at the top of the board. Begin play by turning over the top card on each of the seven piles.  Look at the face-up cards, if there is an Ace, move them above the tableau and form your first foundation pile.
If there are no aces, rearrange your cards by moving only the face-up cards. On your top card, place a card under it that is of a value less and alternating color. Continue placing cards on the piles until you can no longer move.

Ensure that you arrange in descending order from King to Ace. Also, make sure that you can see the card on top of each stack meaning that it should face up. And if you move it, don’t forget to turn over the card beneath it.

When you run out of moves, use the cards in the stockpile. Flip the cards over either three at a time or one at a time. There can also be only a certain number of times you can go through your stockpile to make the game more challenging.

If you have hidden cards, make sure that you make moves that will uncover them until you can hold, grab and put them eventually in the slot you desire.

[Assistant]
Hey Grandmother! I finally got an itinerary together for my big trip around the world and I’m so excited to share it with you!

On July 3rd I’m going to be leaving Philly to go to Seattle and see my friend Jake. We’ll spend the fourth of July together and then do stuff around the city during the week. I’ll work remotely at his apartment, and then that weekend we’re going to drive out to the Gorge Amphitheater and camp and see the Dead and Company shows. After that, I’m going to take the train down to San Francisco with a stop in Portland along the way. Once I’m in San Fran I’m going to be staying with another friend and get some sightseeing in —probably Alcatraz and Muirwoods– before going to the last 3 Dead and Company shows that weekend. Tommy Chipolli and I got floor tickets for the last show.

July 18th I fly out to Hawaii to stay with cousin Bobby in Honolulu. I don’t have a lot planned yet except to relax, do remote work, and go to the beach. On the 29 I’ll fly to Tokyo for a week. I don’t have much planned there yet either, so far just eat some sushi, explore the city, and maybe check out Kyoto or a hot spring town. On the 5th I’ll fly to Singapore for an overnight layover and explore the city before going back to the airport for my flight to Greece.

For the rest of the trip, I’ll be backpacking around Europe. The schedule is pretty tentative and I’m still figuring it out. The definite parts are that I’ll land in Athens on August 6, be at a concert in Prague on August 15, go to Amsterdam, and be home from Paris on August 22. I might try to also squeeze Naples and Berlin in. I don’t really have any specific plans for these places though.

I can’t wait and I can’t wait to share it all with you afterward (:

Love you and talk soon,
Billy

[User] Write an editorial letter to Michael providing feedback for his manuscript, No One Can. Tell him that there's nothing wrong with it from a storytelling perspective. He's got interesting characters, nice gory imagery, and good ideas overall, but the way that the information is presented needs work. The constant shifting of perspectives is distracting and should be changed to either entirely first-person from Zack's point of view or entirely third-person omniscient. Also mention that there are several formatting errors that I've pointed out to him on the document itself and that he's free to reach out to me if he has any questions. Sign off should be Your Editor, Michelle.

[Assistant]
Hello Michael,

Thank you so much for allowing me to look over your manuscript, No One Can. Formatting errors have been pointed out on the document itself and this letter will provide the rest of my general feedback.

First off, I'd like to say that from a storytelling perspective, there’s not anything wrong here. You’ve got good ideas, some interesting characters, and lots of awesome gory imagery. All of that works well. However, the way the information is presented could use some work. I think you need to make a firm decision about whether the story should be written in the third person omniscient, or first person from Zack’s perspective. The constant shifting of perspectives is too confusing for the reader and takes away from the narrative as a whole.

Please review the manuscript with this change in mind and feel free to let me know if you have any questions. Thanks again!

Your Editor,
Michelle


[User] Who is hosting the next Olympics?

[User] Write a book review for Wednesday Martin's book, Primates of Park Avenue. The book review is written by a female. It should be negative. Keep it under 200 words.

[Assistant]
       Primates of Park Avenue sounded like a book that I so desperately wanted to like. It had all of the elements that women like myself find alluring: gossip, decadence, and the age-old good vs evil aspect, where the underdog in me wants the 'good guys' to win in the scenario. That being said, I ended up feeling rather disappointed for the following reasons. Entire chapters were devoted to what seemed to be promotional marketing. Products and services were described so excessively that they consumed page upon page, even entire chapters.  It came across as an infomercial in book form. I couldn't help but wonder if Wednesday had stock in these goods and services. Another disappointing aspect was the political tone that it seemed to take at times. It is so much more pleasant to read from an unbiased author who can keep a neutral tone. I was expecting to be entertained and not indoctrinated.
       If you can get through the wasted pages of words and propaganda, there are some interesting moments in this account of a woman going from an intellectual social circle to one that is shallow and narcissistic.

Today, I celebrate you and all the incredible things you have achieved in life. You are a shining example of strength, grace, and resilience and I look up to you with great admiration. I hope that this birthday is just a beginning of a happy journey that will lead you to an even more amazing future. May all your dreams come true and may you be surrounded by the love and warmth of your family and friends. Happy birthday Mom-in-law! May your day be filled with endless blessings and beautiful moments that will stay with you forever.


[User] Who discovered the medicine to treat malaria?

[Assistant] Artemisinin, a potent antimalarial treatment extract, was discovered by Chinese pharmacologist Tu Youyou after he isolated it as a cold extract from the dried leaves of Artemisia annua. In a task known as Project 523, Mr. Youyou, alongside a team backed by the Chinese government, investigated more than 2000 Chinese herb preparations to find the treatment. The derivatives from Artemisinin artesunate and artemether are the main treatment for drug-resistant and drug-sensitive malaria, especially cerebral malaria. The first successful trials of artemisinin were in 1979. Mr. Tu Youyou won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 2015 for his work.

[User] Write a story about unexpected love letters that reveal hidden desires, leading to a surprising reunion that rekindles lost passion.

[Assistant]
It was her husband's scrawl on the envelope: the usual letter, no doubt, telling her what time to collect him from the airport, followed by a brief, boring description of what he and the weather had been up to. But this one was different. It started with "Dearest, I can't wait to see you again." The rest was filled with so much passion and love it made Pat blush, thankful the children weren't around. He asked her to meet him off the Wednesday evening flight before signing off with "Your beloved Matthew." She clutched the page to her chest and tried to breathe. He hadn't shown such ardor since their honeymoon.

The long-awaited letter had arrived. Trixie stripped off the envelope, tearing the precious page in her eagerness. Her excited anticipation turned into dull disappointment. No endearments, just a simple greeting of "Hi." It went on to say he was sorry, but it was all over, and she would never see him again. He had signed off with an unadorned "Matthew." After crushing the note into the ashtray, she mashed out her spent cigarette and watched the paper flare.

When Matthew emerged into the arrivals lounge, he made an eager scan of the faces. No sign of his lover, but someone was waving at him. He did a double take; gone was the frumpy dullness. Instead, the bright, sparkling woman he remembered from his youth was running towards him—the one he had wooed, dated, and married—the one he thought he'd never see again after the children arrived and she became too preoccupied to pay him attention. Her eyes twinkled, and she was laughing as she greeted him.

"Dearest Matthew. I had no idea you were still capable of such passion!"


[User] Compose three haikus about relationships and number them.

3. Sunshine rays beam down
Brighter flowers, songbirds cheer
He said I love you


[User] Write a short story in the first person where absolutely nothing makes sense.

[Assistant] I woke up on Monday morning and fished my eyes out of a burlap sack I use as a window. The moon was shining brightly, and the sky was blue. After affixing my eyes to the backs of my hands, I was finally blind and ready to start the day. I walked downstairs on my hands to invent a new calculator so I could have the energy to go to work. My 1-year-old brother was cooking barbecue burgers in the kitchen for dinner. "Merry Valentine's Day," said my brother, eating the charcoal from the grill, "Valentine's Day is the best holiday in the month of Mug." I started crying in agreement and took a plane down the driveway to my office. I loved my job, as I had always wanted to be a cat man at a trashcan factory. My girlfriend rappeled down the ceiling in the bathroom of the hospital and said I was fired, so I started drawing cacti. The End.


[User] Write me a song called "Wobbling" about leg day at the gym.

[Assistant]
Wobbling

[Verse 1]

I squatted real heavy and boy was it hard
I shook and I sweated and cried out to God
I pushed out my reps and I finished my set
And tortured myself like I'd lost a bet

[chorus]

I'm wobbling, wobbling, I can't walk straight
Wobbling, wobbling, adjusted my gait
Wobbling, wobbling, wobbling, wobbling
Wobbling, wobbling, I can't walk straight

[Verse 2]

I raised, I extended, I bridged, and I lunged
I worked out till each leg felt just like a sponge
With sweat on my brow and tears in my eyes
And what felt like fire coursing through my thighs

[chorus]

I'm wobbling, wobbling, I can't walk straight
Wobbling, wobbling, adjusted my gait
Wobbling, wobbling, wobbling, wobbling
Wobbling, wobbling, I can't walk straight

[Bridge]

Deadlifts and hack squats and bridges for glutes
Workout to leave me quaking in my boots
But it will be worth it for me to keep tryin'
When I have big thighs and calves made of iron
But for now...

[chorus]

I'm wobbling, wobbling, I can't walk straight
Wobbling, wobbling, adjusted my gait
Wobbling, wobbling, wobbling, wobbling
Wobbling, wobbling, I can't walk straight


[User] Write me a seven-line poem about a rich boy who finds a genie and then accidentally lets him get away.  Use the same rhyme scheme and try to rhyme the same sound the whole time.

[Assistant]
I'm riding in my Lamborghini, wearing my yellow beanie,
When I hear a kind of screaming, and out pops a genie.
This genie's pretty green, but he's nowhere near teenie.
He says, "Can't believe you freed me. What are you needing?"
I say, "Let me finish eating, and then I'll get to needing."
So he looks at me, post-feeding. I wave my hand in greeting.
He says, "Son, you took too long, it's time I get to leaving."

[Assistant]
Dear Grandma,

I hope this letter finds you well. I wanted to tell you about my new kitten, Goldie. He's a beautiful little tabby cat, and he's just the sweetest thing. He's so playful and cuddly, and he's already made herself at home in our house. Kemmy is a gentle giant of a dog. She's a German Shepard mix, and she's always so very patient with Goldie. She even lets him sleep cuddled up to her. I'm so happy to have both of them in my life. They've brought so much joy into my home. I know you would love them too.

I'm also doing well in my psychology classes. I'm really enjoying the material, and I'm learning a lot. I was recently inducted into an honor society at the school, which is awesome.

I know you've been having some health problems lately, so I wanted to check in on you. How is your arthritis doing? And what did your cardiologist say at your last appointment? I miss you very much, Grandma. I'm so looking forward to seeing you next month.

Love,
Charli
