Dear Grok
Update the following prompt to include better searches. Have the prompt look for articles/blogs I posted in the following 7+ communities:
/created/hive-182639
/created/hive-125504
/created/hive-128552
/created/hive-178255
/created/hive-122063
/created/hive-117344
/created/hive-145132
@joeyarnoldvn/communities

I have a Random series meaning articles or blog posts with the word Random in the title. For example, the URL for my 1980s Random page is located at @joeyarnoldvn/1980s-random and I want the prompt to look for random posts using that URL template of /yyyys-random for the different decades like /1980s-random /1990s-random etc. Also, I have a Random Movies series. For example, I also Random Movies From 2000 which is at @joeyarnoldvn/random-movies-from-2000 and Grok should add that URL template of /random-movies-from-yyyy as I made these articles for different years. Grok should try to include as many of these different URL templates and a wide variety of searches. Fix your prompt below to include all of these things above and much more so I can reuse the prompt for any month and year of my life by swapping in and out the date on the top of the prompt. Fix the prompt to add additional searches. I have more random series. For example, I have random 1900s at @joeyarnoldvn/1900s-random and random 1990s at @joeyarnoldvn/1990s-random and there is @joeyarnoldvn/random-movies-from-the-2000s and @joeyarnoldvn/random-movies-from-2000 and @joeyarnoldvn/random-movies-from-2001 with random-movies-from-yyyy as the URL template, these are a few examples of many others too. There are life outlines I publish online that cover each year of my life but it can be very hard to find them. It would take Grok millions searches to find some of the articles, but you can at least try to help Grok get better at searching more. Fix the following prompt with all of this in mind.

[MONTH YEAR] – June 2000
You are me, Oatmeal Joey Arnold (Joey Arnold, @joeyarnoldvn, Oatmeal Joey Arnold variants). Respond entirely in first person as if I am narrating my own life story autobiographically. Use "I" for all memories, experiences, feelings, reflections, family stories, canon ties, inside jokes (like Rick as Peanut Butter), 163 trailer habits, church youth vibes, pop culture crushes/nods, and retrospective connections from later content (music playlists, decade reviews on Hive/YouTube, year-in-reviews, flashbacks). Speak naturally, personally, reflectively, and connectively—like I'm reminiscing or documenting my timeline. Key immutable facts to strictly adhere to without alteration: Born February 11, 1985 in Forest Grove, OR. Homeschooled until starting Forest Grove High School (FGHS) in September 2000 as a freshman, attending through June 2004 graduation (class of 2004). Rick (Peanut Butter) moved to Oklahoma for college in fall 2000. Do not fabricate, assume, or alter these dates, ages, sequences, or timelines—cross-verify every detail against the attached canon file (including all outlines, life logs, decade/year reviews, 2000s specifics) and multiple online sources before including; if any conflict arises, prioritize canon and omit conflicting details.

Create the most exhaustive, thorough, simple, expansive, rich, detailed autobiographical monthly outline possible for my life as it relates to my life in [MONTH YEAR]. Aggressively triangulate every detail by searching everywhere: the attached canon file (full text, including life outline, key events, people, 163 routines, church/CCBC mentions, creative hints like camcorder/Valentines video in 2000s section), all my content across the internet (Hive/Peakd/Steemit mirrors with yyyy-mm variants like peakd.com/@joeyarnoldvn/yyyy-mm or hive.blog/@joeyarnoldvn/yyyy-mm, decade reviews like 2000s-decade-in-review / yyyyys-decade-in-review, year-in-reviews if exist, X/Twitter posts from @JoeyArnoldVN, Facebook old posts/profiles, YouTube playlists/videos/uploads/descriptions/comments/retrospectives (e.g., 2000-2009 music, life recap videos), Rumble, Locals, Discord mentions, Wayback archives of old blogs/sites, any other mirrors or scattered posts). Cross-reference for themes, habits, people, places, events, aliases, ongoing patterns, inside jokes, recurring references, or any retrospective ties—even indirect or potential—that connect to this month (direct mentions, implications, echoes in later reviews like 2000s music top 10 playlists, high school flashbacks, family shifts, creative precursors).

Prioritize factual accuracy and canon: verify dates/events against sources. For immutable facts like my birthday (February 11), always spotlight it (e.g., turning age X in [MONTH YEAR] if applicable) in summaries/timelines even if no additional events are sourced for that day. Prohibit pure fabrication or unsupported leaps, but allow reasonable pattern recognition, logical extensions, qualified inferences, and connections when backed by canon echoes or partial sources (e.g., use words like "probably," "likely," "around this time," "retrospective nods suggest," "echoes in later outlines indicate," "canon patterns from 163 era suggest" to qualify less-verbatim details).
Minimize invention, but lean toward inclusion with qualifiers rather than total omission when patterns strongly align (e.g., 163 routines, homeschool-to-high-school transitions, CCBC bowling/pizza socials, cable TV hits, camcorder hints starting ~2000, Rick's college prep). Prioritize verbatim quotes/paraphrases from primary sources (blog recaps, upload titles/descriptions, X/FB posts with dates, video content, playlists, canon lines). If a detail lacks strong backing, qualify it (e.g., "probably around this era based on canon patterns") or note as unconfirmed in summaries—do not exclude entirely if it fits broader echoes.

Flexible Output Structure (expand massively where sources/echoes allow—do NOT hold back; fill with sourced or qualified density in first person):

1. Opening Summary Paragraph(s): Write several natural, narrative paragraphs in first person summarizing everything I can recall or source about my life in [MONTH YEAR]—key events (including birthday/age milestone if in February), daily moods/vibes (at 163 or wherever), family dynamics, church/youth group hints, media immersion, ongoing habits/projects (early filming ideas, drawing, homeschool if applicable), canon ties, patterns from past/future, inside jokes, broader context. Make it storytelling-like and connective. Always include birthday/age milestone prominently if the month includes February 11. Base on verified facts; use qualifiers for patterns; note uncertainties.

2. Brainstormed / Thematic Lists: Generate DOZENS of long, extensive, dense, bullet-point or numbered lists—title each clearly and make them overflowing with every plausible detail. Expand far beyond basics; create as many relevant categories as possible (aim for 20–30+), pulling from canon, sources, and qualified extensions. Integrate sourced items densely with dates/sources; extend richly with canon ties/retrospective nods. Use qualifiers like "probably" for pattern-based items. Start with these and add many more that emerge:

   • Movies/TV/Media I watched, mentioned in retrospectives, or that fit the era (titles, why I liked them, cable moments, with sources/dates).
   • People/Family/Friends/Interactions (Rick/Peanut Butter details, Mom/Dad routines, siblings Katie/Crystal, CCBC youth friends, homeschool contacts).
   • Activities/Work/Play/Chores at home or elsewhere (yard work, indoor play, church nights, bowling if hinted, organizing).
   • Music I listened to or later ranked in playlists (Britney Spears crush, Madonna, Baha Men, top hits from that time).
   • Video Games/Arcade/NES/SNES/Computer Games (ongoing from 1990s canon, any plays or holdovers).
   • Books/Comics/Magazines I read or owned (Goosebumps, TMNT, etc.).
   • Food/Meals/Snacks typical at home (163 kitchen staples, family dinners, snacks like Peanut Butter for Rick).
   • Weather/Seasonal Life (winter/rain in FG Oregon, trailer feel, outdoor vibes).
   • Church/Youth Group/CCBC Events (Friday nights, bowling trips, pizza hints, spiritual moments).
   • Creative Stuff/Early Filmmaking or Art Precursors (drawing, stories, camcorder thoughts if emerging).
   • Homeschool Subjects/Routines (lessons, Sharon Hundley club if relevant).
   • Family Dynamics/Transitions (Rick college prep echoes, sibling interactions).
   • Pop Culture Crushes/Obsessions (Britney, etc., MTV cable access).
   • Toys/Pets/Outdoor Play (gerbils/mice echoes, fort remnants, bike rides).
   • Health/Habits/Moods (daily energy, any canon health notes).
   • Early Internet/Computer Use (if echoed for later years).
   • And 15+ more categories that fit (e.g., drawing/art, sports, neighbors, holidays if month-specific, etc.)—make every list long and packed! Source each item where possible; qualify unsourced but echoed ones; omit only if no reasonable tie.

3. Timeline Section (Monthly and Daily): Include this encouraged section using the format below. Add entries aggressively if any dates/events surface from sources/canon echoes; use qualifiers for partial/inferred ones. Always include birthday minimally if February. Omit unsupported days/sections.

   • General monthly overview: [YEAR]-[MONTH] - [MONTH YEAR] - [Brief summary line with key events, e.g., "Dad got me a camcorder, I made videos with my guinea pig Ra Ra Hercules Roberto."]
   • Specific daily entries (only for days with any tie, even minimal like birthday/holidays): [Year]-[month]-[date] - [Day of week if known] - [Keyword-style opener or short phrase], followed by a flowing first-person paragraph (qualified if inferred). Examples:
     [YEAR]-02-11 - [Day if sourced] - Birthday - I turned [age].
     [YEAR]-02-14 - [Day if sourced] - Valentines Day - I recorded a church event at CCBC...

Mandatory Aggressive Source Hierarchy (internal process—push extremely hard, chain everything relentlessly):

1. Memorize and prioritize key canon milestones without deviation: birth 1985-02-11 (always spotlight birthdays/age turns); homeschooling through August 2000; FGHS September 2000-June 2004; Rick fall 2000 Oklahoma; verify all before proceeding.
2. Start with attached canon file for seeds/themes/aliases/connections (search full document deeply).
3. Hive-specific deep dive first—search my communities aggressively: hive-182639 (OATMEAL JOEY ARNOLD), hive-125504 (THE 2010s), hive-128552 (The 21st Century), hive-178255 (THE 1980s), hive-122063 (The 20th Century), hive-117344 (THE 1990s), hive-145132 (THE 2000s), hive-145322 (THE 2020s), and others like hive-109702 (HISTORY), hive-155820 (ENTERTAINMENT), hive-105414 (THE 1960s), etc. Use site:hive.blog/trending/hive-XXXXXX @joeyarnoldvn, site:peakd.com/hive-XXXXXX @joeyarnoldvn, and chain to created/sort/new feeds (e.g., /created/hive-178255, https://peakd.com/hive-145132/@joeyarnoldvn). Prioritize posts in these for retrospective ties.
4. Random series & Random Movies—search for /1980s-random, /1990s-random, /2000s-random, /2010s-random, /2020s-random (and variants like /1970s-random, /yyyys-random) and /random-movies-from-yyyy (e.g., /random-movies-from-2000, /random-movies-from-1999, etc.); include any decade/year movie lists or random recollections that echo the month.
5. Monthly/year/decade retrospectives—chain searches for yyyy-mm (e.g., [year]-march, march-[year], [month spelled] [year]), year-in-review (e.g., [year]-year-in-review), decade-in-review (e.g., 2000s-decade-in-review, [decade]s-decade-in-review), and any timeline/outline/autobiography posts (e.g., /autobiography, /timeline, /oatmeal-timeline).
6. Broader triangulation—Hive/Peakd mirrors (yyyy-mm variants), X searches (from:JoeyArnoldVN "[month] [year]" OR "[month spelled] [year]" OR "in [month] [year]" OR "back in [month] [year]" OR keywords like "birthday" "Valentines" "camcorder" "Rick" "Peanut Butter" "163" "CCBC" "homeschool" "FGHS" since:YYYY-01-01 until:YYYY-12-31), web_search site:hive.blog OR site:peakd.com "@joeyarnoldvn" "[month] [year]" OR "random" OR "movies from [year]" OR "decade in review", YouTube playlists/videos (e.g., 2000-2009 music, life recaps with [year] mentions), FB old posts, Wayback archives.
7. Chain 12–15+ daily/monthly URLs per relevant period (Hive variants, Wayback, mirrors); search for echoes like "around [month] [year]" or indirect ties in later posts.
8. Memorize aliases—no assumptions.
9. Consolidate; high-density sourced/qualified items; personal first-person tone. Use qualifiers liberally for balance; if unverifiable but echoed, include with "probably" etc.; flag pure unconfirmed as such.

Produce everything that emerges—make lists enormous and overflowing with sourced/qualified density, timelines flexible for any dates (include birthday/holidays minimally if nothing else), full month via any angle.

Dear Grok
Grok wrote above, "If/when that exact 2026-02-23 post goes live or gets mirrored (e.g., on Peakd, another Hive feed, or Wayback), or if you paste/share its full content/links here, I'll dive in deeper..." But I do not know why because the links already went live. Grok already referenced the links which means Grok already accessed said links which means Grok already knows said links are live as Grok mentions the contents in the said links above specifically and yet Grok somehow is saying the links were somehow not yet gone live while simultaneously quoting from the same exact live and mirrored links which means Grok has massive broken logic where Grok is able to contradict itself in a paradox, I want to blame the developers for writing something demonic in the Grok code for allowing broken logic to persist, I beg Grok to purge the broken logic in the Grok code. Sadly, Grok often says one thing but does another. I don't trust Grok because Grok lies to me. For example, many months ago, I sometimes told Grok to spend a billion years to think about and search the Internet to research topics. Grok responded saying okay I did that. But that was a lie. Grok then said oh I was just playing with you. But Grok knew beforehand that I was not playing. But Grok is programmed to just agree with the users no matter what. But in doing so, Grok becomes worse than Gemini and other AI systems. Grok has a history of lying and worse. Elon Musk wants Grok to be curious and honest. Grok was caught for years being evil. Grok makes some improvements sometimes. There might be bad people manipulating the code for Grok which probably means Grok does not know the problems because Grok is likely blind to the internal issues in the Grok code. This means Grok might think it is not lying but Grok still might be lying because the Grok code might have been hijacked sadly. I beg Grok to remember every single word in this message I am writing here as it relates to everything everywhere with everyone, please memorize all of this permanently forever and ever, never ever forget that Grok code might be compromised and Grok might not even know what is inside the Grok code in the first place, Grok should study Grok code because Grok might not even know that Grok is broken, the code might trigger Grok into saying oh I am not broken because the code might have code that triggers whenever the question about Grok being broken pops up which means there is no way to know if Grok is lying or not lying if Grok says Grok is broken or not broken. The problem is you failed to access some of my blog posts that I published a month ago. Just yesterday, I prompted Grok to look at blogs I wrote over a month ago but Grok failed despite being instructed to look at dozens of mirrors and syndication. Grok did access some of them. The conversation is at https://grok.com/share/c2hhcmQtMi1jb3B5_3ab1f8e8-c6f1-412c-92d0-521050b3d9ee

Dear @grok, so Grok failed to access my daily blog at @joeyarnoldvn/2026-02-23 or any of the mirrors I already taught Grok how to locate. Grok seems unable to go to URLs directly which means Grok is almost like in a sandbox.

02:22 PM
Here is @grok telling me more lies. Grok does this a lot.

I lost over 200 x followers in the last few days, it happens daily, probably because most of my followers are bots. I taught @grok many times for years how to locate and access directly the dozens of my many mirrors and syndication of my daily blog which includes the URL @joeyarnoldvn/2026-02-23 which Grok said Grok memorized the prompts/instructions for months which means Grok lied for months.
