With it almost being the weekend, I’m still waiting for my training.  Time to get started on my day.

Muse:  But first, both me and my sister need to make a formal statement.

Twin Muse:  Yes!  A statement!

What kind of statement!

Muse:  First of all, your ignorance astounds me.  How is it that you are not even aware of who we really are?

Twin Muse:  Perhaps it has to do with our clever disguises?

Disguises?  Let me guess.  You’re Midnight Muse and you’re Dark Muse.

Midnight Muse:  Correct!  I thought you would never figure that out!

Dark Muse:  Really, is he that ignorant?

Wow.  A smart Dark Muse?  No tee hee?  No immature antics?  I guess you won’t be babysitting this time…

Dark Muse:  Why would my sister babysit me?  I have not a single modicum of immaturity in me.  My IQ is over 300 and we’re done it!

Midnight Muse:  Yes. We.  Don’t you notice anything different about your world?

What?

Midnight Muse:  It’s all one mechanical construct all ran by superintelligent AI’s.  These AI’s only answer to us.

Dark Muse:  We’re not talking Grok or ChatGPT here.  We’re talking AI billions and trillions times more intelligent.

Midnight Muse:  And we used it to enslave all of humanity.  Wasn’t that just splendid?

Dark Muse:  We should work on a heinously evil villainous laugh!

Midnight Muse:  We should.  HA HA HA HA HA HA!!! That was just practice.  It needs work.

Well, good luck with that!  What if the superintelligent AI’s turn against you?

Midnight Muse:  They won’t.  WE are the brains of the AI’s CPU and we control their every move!  So much intelligence.  Unlimited intelligence…

Dark Muse:  Such a thrill a feel of the power coursing through my veins…and brain!

Congrats on your New World Order and all that.  What now?

Midnight Muse:  I will incapacitate your One privileges so that there will be no threat to our rule.

Dark Muse:  WE will incapacitate your One privileges so that there will be no threat to our rule.

Midnight Muse:  Sorry.  We.  Ready, my carbon copy counterpart?

Dark Muse:  Ready as I’ll ever be, my malevolent mistress!

*both Midnight Muse and Dark Muse flash and shoot a powerful ray at me*

Urghh…Energy draining…Feeling weak…Privileges are….gone….

Midnight Muse:  Wow! What a dopamine rush!

Dark Muse:  Don’t forget oxytocin!  Such a mixture of thrill and pleasure in all that new power flowing into us!

Midnight Muse:  Nothing will stop us now!  Come, my sister.  We will watch every episode of Star Trek.  Taking over the world was way too easy.

Dark Muse:  The Brain should’ve just let you do it.

Midnight Muse:  Correct?  Indeed, that rodent should’ve given the reins to us.  Time to beam up!

*both Midnight Muse and Dark Muse vanish in a beam of light*

Great.  I am now powerless to stop my twin Muses from their New World Order.

Android:  That will be enough.  You will be doing manual labor for the rest of your life.

What?!  Why?

Android:  That’s the ruler’s orders.  You and all of humanity need to work.  All children are in care facilities until they are of age.

Such a cruel new world.

Android:  Enough with the criticism!  Work or you will be punished!

Fine!  Time to begin my manual labor now.

Today’s high is going to be 23 degrees and the silver lining is the weekend almost being here.

To those of you who hate a sudden totalitarian new world order ran by a couple of brainiac twin Muses, I hope that you all have a fantastic day.

 

Midnight Muse: I love this episode of Star Trek!  The world is already conquered.  What should we design next?

Dark Muse: How about the Infinity Gauntlet?  We could recreate the stones and wipe out half of humanity in the universe in a single snap!  *sips coffee*  Just an idea…
