iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

There was a lab accident in Russsia where a worker was exposed to and died from "the black plague". Let me put on my medievalist hat before y'all panic and click like mad fools: Yersinia pestis is a bacterium, treatable by antibiotics. So, calm the fuck down.

Apologies for not including alt text. It's a grayscale ink drawing of a medieval reliquary with Adam and Eve next to an apple tree and a gloved hand in the foreground placing a card identifying it a a miniature reliquary.

A little late on Inktober, so I combined the three prompts into one drawing: Apple, relic, miniature.

I generally listen to Latin Jazz, so what do I know?

Well, poop. Sorry that happened. It's a weird labor market.

Yeah, one place I lived in showed no hazard and then 5 years later, it was suddenly in a liquefaction zone. Science is a moving target, as is the terrain in Juneau, apparently.

Herself @elainerichards.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

Am I the only person in the world who looked at hazard maps before buying property?

The kid probably slipped through the bars to join his friends in the playground. They could have lifted him and pushed him back out.

I certainly am getting rounder.

I actually don't mind that they are taking artificial colors out of foods. I guess I'm just a weirdo.

I don't think he could handle a brace of angry Karens demanding to speak to the manager.

This was entertaining in a cringe kind of way.

So they're using their irresponsibility and harm as a selling point.

Can someone tell me how incredibly important it is to their very livelihood that they have to use the Meta platform and not Craigslist for their yard sales? I dumped Meta ages ago. finance.yahoo.com/technology/a...

Man says Meta's AI agent Muse shared his address, took a lowball offer and told a buyer he was home — nobody came down

'Absolutely wild,' Matt Robb wrote in a Threads post after letting Muse handle his marketplace listings for the day.

Your baking and your mayor are two things that make me think I'm living in the wrong city.

Better stock your pantry, dude. Because independent truckers are going to be forced to go on hiatus.

Without using AI at all, I was able to get a relatively obscure image - a blueprint of a 1975 Ford pickup truck. This included the front, back , both sides, and (most importantly) from above. Fuck AI. Hooray human knowledge hoarders sharing images.

Nothing will cure the fact that those glasses look insanely dorky and women in bars will dry up like the Sahara desert the minute their wearers walk in.

When I am very slowly working on my graphic novel in my front room, the cat will come keep me company after spending about 15 minutes yelling at me for not being in whatever room she thinks I am supposed to be in. Caturday!

Beige cat on desk looking out window. Lots of random stuff on desk in front of her.

Yeah. I worked there for a few years. I did not bring my cats to the interview. I did, however, bring them to work once I was an employee.

Announcers thought it'd be funny to mock the husband whose wife had the kid with her as well as the takeout food. They didn't know the whole story. themomoftheyear.substack.com/p/im-the-mom...
