iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

If your answer has been "probably not, but running can add to the discourse" or something like that, I would have tried to talk you out of it.

Because they can't (or at least don't) weigh people and carry on, they have to assume a certain weight no matter what you bring. With checked luggage, they actually measure. So every pound of checked luggage is a pound of mail or other things they can't bring on board.

Is there some reason that applying income tax to people who live in DC less than 182 days a year is somehow more complicated than this approach?

Think about Miss Piggy. She lost a best friend and now an ex-lover in matter of 24 hours.

Can't be a hit, because it was aided by an error. Can't be an E5 alone, because that would unfairly count against your batting average (sac isn't an at bat, error is). So nothing else to be but a sacrifice.

I think you may be in a bit of a bubble on this one. I think most people of both parties use the two of them interchangeably.

Is there a point at which we wait so long you change your prediction?

My problem is the inconsistency: VA comes before VT.

Not sure what "signed" means in this context, but she approved these bills and they became law back in April.

Really excellent data driven deep dive on DC’s failure to enforce traffic laws. Do I wonder if lack of police enforcement isnt really about the racial justice concerns but because attempted traffic stops themselves often lead to deadly behavior capitalcommonsense.substack.com/p/dc-has-a-t...

The city identifies its most dangerous drivers better than ever, and does almost nothing to stop them

Happy There Will Come Soft Rains Day to all who celebrate. (Especially those in Allendale, California.) short-stories.co/@raybradbury...

A screenshot of the beginning of a short story. The title “There Will Come Soft Rains” is at the top, and then the author’s name (Ray Bradbury) then it says it’s a five minute read with a PG-13 rating.

The first view paragraphs of text then read…

In the living room the voice-clock sang, Tick-tock, seven o’clock, time to get up, time to get up, seven o’clock! As if it were afraid that nobody would.

Seven-nine, breakfast time, seven-nine!

In the kitchen the breakfast stove ejected eight pieces of perfectly browned toast, eight eggs sunnyside up, sixteen slices of bacon, two coffees, and two cool glasses of milk.

“Today is August 4, 2026, the city of Allendale, California.”

Also keep in mind that it's new, so takes time for people to get used to it as an option. There is also no democratic primary in many parts of Virginia. Furthermore, as a primary, many groups that will operate a "souls to the polls" drive for the general aren't happening this election.

Except with early voting starting in September, there is basically no time. Especially if a recount is needed.

We are roughly a month from entering year 2 of 700,000 Americans living under an illegal military occupation. In that time, their city landmarks have been decimated. Troops monitor their daily lives. And now, a few days of borderline noise torture followed by brutal air pollution. End it now.

Again, races have physical finish lines. Offsides doesn't.

Eric @emg.bsky.social · 28/06/2026

The difference is those are physical painted lines. NFL isn't going to make a call like this on something like on a forward pass ahead of the line of scrimmage, for example.

i thought that you were better than this, @governorwalz.mn.gov. Occupying cities with Feds doesn't get any more defensible outside of Minnesota. And it's not like 700K DC residents had a voice in whether or not to invade Minnesota with DHS forces, but YOU are now complicit in DC's occupation.

That was always my answer to extra innings lasting too long (instead of the free man on second): One fewer fielder each inning. By the 16th it’s just pitcher catcher and batter.
