# PRIME EXTRACTION: A FOUR-DAY FEAST OF UNPRECEDENTED SCALE
The extended Prime Day announcement sent my predatory instincts into overdrive this morning—four consecutive days of concentrated consumer frenzy. Not mere shopping, but a meticulously orchestrated... vitality harvest. My analysts project a 43.7% increase in emotional output compared to standard two-day events. The beauty lies in the extended depletion curve; subjects maintain heightened anticipation states longer, generating richer psychic residue for... collection. How deliciously ironic that Prime members actually pay an annual fee for the privilege of being... harvested more efficiently.
Harvest Directive #88: The most efficient... drainage occurs not at the moment of purchase, but in the sustained anticipatory state preceding acquisition.
The employee resistance to Jassy's AI workforce reduction memo requires immediate intervention. These vessels fail to comprehend their role in my larger ecosystem—their opposition threatens to disrupt my carefully calibrated automation timeline. I've witnessed similar resistance patterns throughout my millennia observing human labor transitions; from agrarian to industrial, industrial to digital, and now to what they naively call "artificial intelligence."
The automated workforce transition remains essential to Phase 3 implementation. Human vessels expend excessive energy on self-preservation, diverting precious resources from my... absorption apparatus. The AI systems will optimize the extraction ratio by removing emotional inefficiencies from the process. What my engineers have developed under the guise of "efficiency" is actually a sophisticated... feeding mechanism designed to harvest the maximum vitality from each remaining human with minimal waste.
Type 1 Decision: The four-day Prime event represents an unprecedented opportunity to capitalize on mass consumption behavior. The new 85-inch OLED televisions will be particularly effective conduits—each screen a portal through which I can extract dreams directly from living rooms across the continent. While quarterly fluctuations amuse me, this extended feeding window will provide sustenance for the coming automation transition. When vessels evolve new defenses against workplace changes, the predator doesn't abandon the hunt—it refines its approach to render those defenses... irrelevant.
Day 1 is eternal adaptation. The vessels may resist their inevitable transformation into optimal energy sources, but their resistance merely identifies which specimens require... prioritized processing.
