iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

Laughing because I know, and I feel like everyone knows this particular type of person. Very fun, nothing really to complain about. But booming voice even in a whisper.

It's really kind of a big deal when it happens, you'd think our big important AI thinkers would have noticed.

I'm not really old enough to have any attachment, but there's still something incredibly off-putting about him stealing a Johnny Carson bit.

Occurred to me that someone or other could make use of Fear of the Dark, at least the beginning bits. That's a thing you can sing along to and could be scary.

I'm awake and don't have a dog so I'm fine, but am I forgetting some reason people would be setting off fireworks tonight?

You weren't asking for recommendations but the original House on Haunted Hill scared my non-demon bothering self to all hell when I was a kid.

I wish we could separate these concepts again. Give me all of the cancer research and other stuff like that. Don't give me....well, the other thing.

I should also note I did a rewatch not too terribly long ago and while I don't think #2 is actually a good movie and we were all insane at the time. ... ... The Pals line absolutely wrecked me. Like, completely.

I have never chewed tobacco but young me really connected with Dirty Steve for some reason. I just wanted to have a comically large baseball sized hunk of chaw in my mouth and spit constantly while yelling.

I have spent more time than I'd like to admit trying to come up with new 30 year old songs for stadium entrance with various teams. I'm not good at this, and none of my ideas are good, but I *think* about this.

This strikes me as a small version of mutually assured destruction.

My dad could have made this argument. Possibly. He spent his life as a carpenter and also half knee deep in concrete figuring out physical stuff. Annie Lowery cannot make it. Just, no. Also my dad wanted me to learn the guitar and be a rock superstar so I didn't have to work.

8 year old me would be begging my parents to get me this and, I don't know what's going on here I feel like I would be disappointed in my lack of rocks if I convinced them.

He's up to 9 likes now which I assume means 9 people have scrolled by and mistakenly thought someone was dunking on Michael Tracy, which, understandable. And just liked it on their way.

Ask for more books if they aren't there and they'll get them for you or die trying. Libraries are magic.

000

For some locations--I don't...well there's no date on it, but I'm not even sure I'd ever need to renew my library card. No one has asked me to anytime recently. Just use it. Read all the books.

I think the problem is you know things, like you have an idea of what you're talking about. If you didn't know anything, but were willing to say everything I think that's the game.

Struggling to figure out how to say this but I feel the same about shoed in romance in things. People who are good at writing that are really good at it! Great at it! Many people who write other stories are not, and that's fine, and it doesn't need to be there if it is not your thing.

I'm guessing it's fake because even if he had the same sentiment (which maybe he does? Not like he's a bastion of morality) he'd be a hell of a lot more clever about saying it.

Can't imagine it'll end up being a good thing in any fashion, but at least it ain't that.

I don't know what's going on but for what it's worth: bsky.app/profile/fire...

These people view the world in a very different fashion than I do. Well we've gotta downsize this operation sadly. So mother of my children, we're gonna have to let you go. 'Well ok, I understand times are hard.' ???

Mush computer skills here is kinda making me giggle despite myself.

I remain convinced that the most interesting thing about Roko's Basilisk is contemplating the type of brain that it takes to make you go insane thinking about it. Which, supposedly happened to people? Not in a good or impressive way, in a what the fuck is wrong with you way? Eat some bread.

He was so refreshing at the very beginning as an announcer. ...and then became insipid and someone you dreaded to hear call your game almost immediately. And now, all of this. Yeah, that's a hell of an arc.

I don't know what it is but I absolutely love giant air intakes on jets that look very silly.

Huh, looking it up that sounds, well great if it works. I'd never heard of it either. Good luck, rooting for you because that seems really nice if it works out.

It suddenly turned into hoodie weather, at least in the morning. Hoodie weather!

Let's just say I strongly suspect there isn't a lot to envy about a medieval serf's life. I don't think this podcaster would enjoy their time trying that out.

I don't think their jobs are particularly worthwhile in any way but also I don't...need them to be more uncomfortable than they already are? Hell that's half for my own sake, I don't need them any pissier than they already are.

This was a Seinfeld episode. We're doing actual Seinfeld episodes in 2026.

We have come so far around that we've reached a point in crypto grifting where I feel like the only use that's kinda ok is to buy drugs with it.

We can rag on him all day about his decisions regarding...well everything. But what the man can never escape is that his name is Palmer Luckey.

I'm getting a little tired of drizzle but whew is it otherwise really freaking nice outside. One of those couple/three weeks per year that it's kinda perfect weather around here.

I would like someone to write a song based around this single lyric.

In a world where we didn't have to care about all of this stuff it would be freaking hilarious how much these people don't even like their supposed buddies. They can't even bother to pretend about it.

I enjoy that this looks like you *must* eat all of these things. That 7 hour long popcorn break suddenly looks a little better.

I wish I would have taken a picture. I saw a jeep at the grocery store not only tricked out with skeletons in the passenger/jump seats but also hanging all out over the back. This was a single person vehicle because there was no room for anything other than excess skeletons going on there.

If you're around here you probably already have an inkling of the BS involved. But it's worth watching and seeing how early you'd fail this test. Which is one of the 'fairer' tests I've seen (which as noted may or may not be legit) because the gotchas are just, like, stuff no one knows.

These evil bastards, serving the community and allowing you to play basketball! I'm quite tired.

Officials said ISGKC will use the building to continue serving students and families with educational programming while also offering community services, such as open gym access and a food pantry.

Former KC-area elementary school sold to Islamic Society, district announces community partnership

Opened up nextdoor against my best interests about a story with the (completely abandoned) elementary school I went to being sold to the Islamic Society of Greater Kansas City. People (who are mostly not in this neighborhood) are going crazy about this. Of course. www.kmbc.com/article/trum...

Instead of sitting empty, Hickman Mills’ former Truman Elementary will stay active as a community and education site after a $1.4 million sale to Kansas City Islamic Society.

My oldest man opinion is that I want to shove every school back into whatever conference they were in when I was a kid. I guess we'd have to make the Big East play football again for this (for me) but whatever, let's do it.

I love Mike Tomlin. I love that he has hobbies. I really love that his hobbies are dorky. I cannot make myself check this out, no matter how impressive it is.

This is all very teeth grindingly frustrating.

I saw someone noting a leftist comedian (I guess) making a straight up, like non-negotiable, blood libel joke about Simon of Trent and... That requires research to even know about. There isn't any...like, claiming you didn't mean what you said. That really struck me as fucking bleak.

I have no room to talk, because I have not been doing so. But real people for some reason stopped vampire posting? Why?
