iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

Just drove into the small town of Equality, AL and the first thing I see is a Confederate flag hanging from someone's front porch. Sigh.

Anthropic banning “abusive or cruel behavior” toward Claude in its new usage policies is proof to me that tech companies are going to moderate violence against AI before they ever moderate violence against women and minorities

My daughter left independently from us to stay at the campground, and she is closer. Thankfully she found a Piggly Wiggly and is getting some additional groceries. We do have some food in the RV but it's always hard to get everything when you're trying to get all the other prep chores done too.

Hurricane escape traffic is crawling along. It's added 2 hrs to our driving time already. So much for getting to our campground with decent daylight left.

Hurricane Isaias (pronounced ees-ah-EE-ahs) is revenge for trying to rename the Gulf of Mexico. 🌀

Preparing for a longer RV trip and doing hurricane prep in one day is a lot of work.

RIP Margaret Hamilton, the brilliant computer scientist whose contributions to software for the Apollo Guidance Computer were absolutely crucial to the Apollo Moon landings. She also helped shape the discipline of computer engineering while at MIT's Instrumentation Lab: news.mit.edu/2026/margare...

Hegseth also removed the olive branches, a traditional symbol of wishing peace, from the Department of Defense seal. This, in addition to changing the name to "The Department of War," shows the dangerous belligerency that comes from appointing a frat bro who values testosterone over statesmanship.

WELL NOW, would you look at that? A massive, 4-YEAR-LONG study of NEARLY 30 MILLION people in France found that individuals who received a COVID-19 mRNA vaccine had a 74% LOWER risk of death from severe COVID-19 compared to unvaccinated individuals and ZERO increased risk of all-cause mortality.

Peoples' manufactured outrage over "Happy Holidays" is so tiresome. These are the same people who don't understand that it's not liturgically correct to wrap a cross in Christmas lights and stick it in your front yard.

Just bumping into this again with people _reflexively_ using the word "grape" or a 🍇 emoji and not even realizing they're doing it. It's all part of the same system, where the men running these companies make platforms that don't even let people accurately describe the crimes that they enable.

Who are nothingburgers that will fade into obscurity in the time it takes the Pope to recite a rosary worth of Hail Mary's.

The Pope, in fact, was elected by a conclave. And if one considers the number of diocese and archdiocese in the Catholic Church worldwide, as the Vicar of Christ, Pope Leo XIV basically runs ALL the local models too.

In 1974, Cornell lecturer Lin Farley began recognizing a pattern in the experiences women shared in her Women and Work course: women were being pushed out of jobs by men’s sexual behavior. Farley coined the term, “sexual harassment.”

When a rapist sticks up for other rapists it's called a professional courtesy.

Let this sink in. Cornell University refused to refund Jane Doe's tuition the semester she was raped. Without this money, she could not transfer to another school. Essentially, she was forced to stay on campus where she saw those seven rapists frequently. Eventually she dropped out of college.

1 in 8 students experiences sexual violence in college, incl 1 in 4 undergrad women (26%)+ 1 in 14 undergrad men (7%) University administrators: "Imagine if we had to refund all that tuition! Could you imagine!?!" Everyone else: "Imagine if you made systemic fucking changes to prevent rape!"
