iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

To be fair, that's just life in these United States. But at least in this scenario you would potentially become a multi-millionaire.

Ziggy Stardust here (f/k/a Michael Jordan, a Chittenden Humane Society alumnus) doesn't mind it, either.

An orange cat with white markings, a pink nose, and a tipped left ear stares into the middle distance from atop a kitchen cabinet.

What about that John Woo game? Stranglehold. Story-wise, it was officially the sequel to Hard Boiled.

My first job in high school was working for a local service that hunted used, rare, and antiquarian books for customers, primarily using a pay-by-minute dialup database exchange. Amazon put us out of business when they started letting people sell direct. Of course they would kill the whole thing.

These companies would do the same to the Library of Alexandria if it stood today.

But my mom never remembers her Comcast password!

That's why man (or at least Temu or whoever) invented the short-sleeve suit.

A tall, dark-haired man with a short, stubbly beard models a navy short-sleeved suit, with a white shirt, black tie, and glossy, reddish-brown shoes. He does not appear to be wearing socks.

I renewed my subscription a bunch back in the day when you could get two years for like $4. I still have it until 2030 or thereabouts, but you can be sure I am not renewing. It just goes straight into the recycling bin these days.

It should be illegal to have that much gorgeousness in one frame. You're both bringing it.

Your alt-text game is fire, madam.

matt yglesias would have told politicians in 1964 that they shouldn't support the civil rights act because voters didn't agree with it in polling. yglesias would be fine with blacks sitting at the back of the bus the way he is happy to do so with transgender people in 2026 its the same picture

If anyone can do it, A24 can. And should.

STFU, Matt. With that kind of thinking this country would still have explicit slavery, women wouldn't be able to vote, and there would be no marriage equality on the basis of race *or* sex. I do not recall there being any asterisk after Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness.

Does "not gonna argue it" = "I know it's bullshit but I have a vested interest in perpetuating it"?

@catsofyore.bsky.social FYI, there is an item in the Vermont Comedy Arts fundraiser auction that may interest you (as someone who supports local non-profits, cats, and comedy). A little bit of water damage, but it comes in a nice frame! givebutter.com/c/VCA-summer...

Framed Currier & Ives print of two fluffy white cats wrestling amid some flowers (Lilacs?) as a mouse looks on. The caption, "Two Little Fraid Cats," suggests they may be recoiling in fear of the mouse. Either way, both have a feisty look on their faces.

I was gonna say, I prefer my French chicks singing over 90s New Age tracks, but, damn, Enigma was apparently a German project. As was La Bouche, despite the name (though the singers were American). Another group from the impresario behind Boney M and Milli Vanilli. I don't know what to believe.
