iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

One of my greatest strengths and greatest weaknesses has always been my response to, "You can't do that, no one can do that," is, "WATCH ME!"

Night reed gets a lot of love in the house. It scratches a particular itch in spite of, not because of, Barker.

The MP thing has me dreaming about a Very Special Reacher Episode...

If you ever felt like you didn't celebrate Dolly Parton enough for her generosity while she was alive, please don't sleep on Mr. T. He doesn't get enough credit.

I can see why he was upset on how they chose to focus the documentary. They skipped the fact that he went to college (though he didn't finish). They skipped that he entered the Army and served as an MP. They skipped most of his mission work, philanthropy, and spiritual philosophy.

Turned on Untold Mr. T: I Pity the Fool. Hoping for some inspiration.

I'm old enough but don't think I saw it in the theater. As the far youngest person in my family no one wanted to go see MY movies.

What’s the scariest short story you’ve ever read or read recently?

Pup got to do a themed Scent Garden today. One worries what this might smell like!

Feel you. I'm at the Dr's office right now and have a long list of the things I'm supposed to do, and I am Over It.

(the idea that a romance author would be inherently afraid of technology when we were the early ebook & ereader adopters and basically pioneered the entire ebook market is another funny thing for another funny day. lol)

This is your occasional reminder that generative "AI" in particular could have been developed on public domain materials and/or licensed and compensated works but the major players intentionally, methodically and systemically chose to steal labor from working creative folks instead

And when I say art, I mean that broadly. It’s the thing that wont leave you alone, it must move through you, and when it does it’ll most likely inspire, awaken, aid our fellow humans through our sharing. Remember sharing? Like kindergarten sharing? That vibe.

It’s late here so I’m not going to do a thread about this, but re pneumonic plague, it can be treated with gentamicin, any number of fluoroquinolones (eg., ciprofloxacin), and tetracyclines. It’s also not very contagious, despite the name.

Fortunately, he followed up by pointing at it and saying, "That looks like a blue footed booby, maybe?"

One time at an aviary my extremely earnest husband asked the attendant, "Is that a booby?" She stared at him blankly. Their blue footed booby had arrived earlier that week, and as a casual volunteer she hadn't known. It is a tribute to his earnestness that she didn't recoil at the question.

You: There weren't THAT many Mikes. Me: We had an IT team that was all Mikes and collectively called The Mikes. They had to all go by their last names in meetings.

Been thinking about that story where the son that Michael McDonald had to give up as a teen found him, and it turned out he was a Mike, too. How cool is that, to find out your son has your name? What are the chances? Growing up in that generation it feels like one in ten, but that's still only 10%.

Yeah, it's like that. We must seem like aliens. Makes me think of Chris Titus's stand-up about dysfunctional families. "During the apocalypse everyone else will be freaking out and we'll be thinking, "There's no one watching the Lexus dealership right now...'"

Not all heroes wear capes. But sometimes she does, especially at a Renn Faire.

100% Her force of personality is intense, too. Leaving DC after the Stewart/Colbert rally our Metro car was starting to get too full and her hand popped out over heads in the age old sign of STOP, and her voice boomed out, "THIS. CAR. IS. FULL." People stopped pushing and the doors closed.

My sister might be worse. I jumped out to yell boo at her once and she punched me unerringly in the face. At least I will yell at you first.

We went to the Busch Gardens Howl-O-Scream once, and I'm just not a haunt house girl. The guy with a chain saw lunged at me and I turned towards him, shouting, "No!" Like he was a bad dog or something. Poor kid.

141

Not sure if you mean aggressive or spooky, but yeah. Aggressive leaves me 🤨. I can't go to haunt houses because if you *can* scare me, then my first reaction is FIGHT.

I was telling ghost stories by the time I was three and read ALL of the paranormal I could find as a kid. All. Of. It.

I'm the teen who had someone run their fingers down my back in the elevator of the Haunted Mansion, and I just gave a beleaguered sigh because I assumed it was one of my brothers. When the lights came up and bros were across the room felt bad for the employee I assume targeted me for a scream.
