iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

I don't think I've ever been on a social media platform people claimed to like being on, back down to message boards. Really makes you think. Log off? No. But think.

My neighbor told me the Middle East keeps eating his carrier groups so I asked how many carrier groups he has he said he just goes to PACOM and gets a new carrier group afterwards so I said it sounds like he's just feeding carrier groups to the Middle East and then Pete Hegseth started crying.

So, my in-laws live in Naperville. It is a very nice downtown, and DuPage County does have an excellent arts scene. The Mac at College of DuPage is a treasure, genuinely. But be fucking serious, please.

It’s also indicative that aldermen fail to realize two important things:

Firstly, suburbanites help keep the lights on in Chicago.

Secondly, Chicago shouldn’t take suburban business for granted. Naperville has a very nice downtown.

Enough already. This idea should not be floating around. It should sink.

remember: it saved no net money, social services US citizens are getting cut, and left the US in a weaker place geopolitically. none of the debates about fiscal responsibility, obligation to US citizens first, or 'hard choices' actually apply. they're all bullshit. killed people for nothing at all.

This is the most remarkable story Ray Bradbury ever shared with me. He told it to me late one night, sitting in his den of antiquities and mementos. Take five minutes to read this. It’s pure magic. #Writing #Living #Creativity #RayBradbury #BookSky

my take is that an alarmingly low number of people understand just how bad cyber warfare alone could go. doomers going on about x-risk but not the very real and present problem of infra cyber defense and the very disastrous consequences that could have

Talking about why Rahm Emanuel is a bad candidate on the merits and actually going into his record is giving way too much credit to Rahm Emanuel. When your 5 year old says he's going to drive a car to Saturn you don't explain why cars can't achieve space travel. You say "cool, sounds fun!"

Probably the greatest life upgrade spouse and I have made in the last couple years is just defaulting to "yes, and more" when it comes to taking in An Art. Getting a Siskel Center membership, getting last minute opera tickets for Salome because of something we saw there... Being a casual is great.

My Star Wars '90s EU hottest takes: ~Michael A. Stackpole walked so Andor could run. ~Gara Petothel is one of the best SW EU characters ever, second only to Kreia. ~Children of the Jedi was, in fact, one of the very best EU novels, bar none. Yes, even the Thrawn Trilogy.

You guys ever wonder if 2001: A Space Odyssey isn't at the root of a lot of our problems with AI because it made everyone believe that the worst thing a computer can do is tell you "no"?

The reaction to this is not doing anything to dispel my primary objection to the idea, which is that it sure has an odor of cargo cult about it.

I, personally, do not think that "I'd take it as a kindness if people would stop saying cruel and untrue things about people like me (bi men)" and "women are obligated to sleep with bi men" are the same statement. Follow me for more daring heterodoxy.

My only ecological criticism of Tolkien is that he partakes of the same forest-centrism as the rest of Anglo and Anglo-diaspora culture. Grasslands and deserts and swamps are all FINE AND GOOD BIOMES, JIRT. Where are my elves learning to speak to the desert biocrust or the carnivorous bog plants
