iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

So my tax dollars are being used to buy concentration camps from for-profit prison companies in order to be able to abuse the immigrants they kidnap and lock up? I need to go out and shut off this computer. I do not think I could be angrier at Republicans if I tried. Bastards.

putting aside the very pressing questions about the privacy and security issues here, the self-censorship angle is important, too: are you really going to feel comfortable expressing yourself on social media if you had to show your passport first?

I do not understand why they must fly over the entire city for days when their show is over the water. Do they think this is going to get those of who hate them to decide to brave the Waymo traffic jams to see the show in the Marina?

We are in a world of trouble because the Republicans have chosen to use racism, greed and fear to win elections instead of policies that actually make our lives better.

It is amazing out today in San Francisco now that it cooled down a little bit. I need to get out there and enjoy it.

This is true, they are not only destroying nature here but doing so to make immigrants take even more dangerous paths that are more likely to kill them. And Republicans are OK with that, they arrest people for leaving water in the desert!

This entitled white man thinks we should find someone we "like and respect" on the "other side" and have lunch I guess he is OK breaking bread with people who want me in the closet (or worse if you are trans), took away my right to medical care, and are kidnapping my neighbors due to racism. I'm not

Figuring out the differences? Have you been asleep for the past two years? WTF are you talking about?

I do not find bigots and racists good people who I want to have lunch with, and they are the majority on the "other side" I can agree to disagree about tax rates. I cannot agree to disagree with the idea we discriminate against Americans based on race, citizenship status, sex or orientation.

This guy is only 44 and never needs to work again, but can't miss out on this AI so chose this over spending time with his likely small kids who he left back in Texas. I have to add, women in tech trying to get work in midlife have no vibe houses of our own I am aware of.

There’s a lot of talk about reports of sexual violence on college campuses. Here’s a quick thread on what a “report” is—and the system schools have created to ignore them.

Since returning to office, Trump has marveled at Al's capabilities. He is increasingly in thrall to the tech executives courting him. In December 2025, Elon Musk returned to the Oval Office for a clandestine meeting. Trump spent hours asking Grok, Musk's Al chatbot, questions about his presidency and legacy, according to an official present. At the time, Trump was ordering missile strikes against Venezuelan boats he alleged were smuggling drugs into the U.S. He asked Grok how Venezuelans would react if the U.S. captured Maduro. According to the official present, the chatbot responded Maduro was a repressive and deeply unpopular dictator and that many Venezuelans would likely celebrate his downfall. After Trump ordered the mission to seize Maduro, the following month,

to seize Maduro, the following month, celebrations broke out in the streets.
Trump, according to officials, came away thinking Grok was ingenious.
Along with his fascination with the technology came two related concerns.
One was economic: that enthusiasm for Al's potential was propping up the stock market. The other was geopolitical, reinforced in conversations with industry titans such as Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang: that China could gain a decisive advantage over the U.S. if it developed more powerful Al first. Trump was committed to giving American companies the freedom to build faster than their foreign competitors. That meant embracing the unprecedented infrastructure build-out required to support the industry's computing needs. After watching a cable news segment about backlash, Trump fired off a Truth Social post. "The only reason that communities throughout the U.S.A. should not want Data Centers is if they want to end up beina

post. The only reason that communities throughout the U.S.A. should not want Data Centers is if they want to end up being backwards and poor," he wrote Aug. 31. "If they want to be successful and rich, with far lower taxes and jobs all over the place, let Data Reign."
Days later, aides showed Trump surveys from his longtime pollster, Tony Fabrizio, showing pervasive anxiety about Al: fears of lost jobs, rising costs, and technology eventually escaping human control. Fellow Republicans facing voters in November were increasingly eager to put distance between themselves and the issue. Trump
"really just didn't seem to care," one aide says. "He wants to do what he wants to do.
He's used to generating outrage and t + watching everyone eventually crawl ba to him. It's hard to convince him to do anything at this point."

The Supreme Court vacated a Ninth Circuit decision finding the elimination of Temporary Protected Status for Venezuelans and Haitians unlawful. Justices remanded the case to the appellate court to reconsider in light of their ruling in Mullin v. Doe, which put TPS decisions outside judicial review.
