iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

I considered getting into sanctioned fights then remembered the women in my life would beat me up first.

Years later in 2022 I was much heavier and could deadlift a spaceship. Now I have found balance. Though in my 50s I might let myself get a little soft. After a few sub 3 hour marathons and sub 9.5 ironmans.

Even servers at restaurants I regularly frequented began hinting I needed to eat more or move less.

I was running 10 kilometers a day, lifting HEAVY 5 days a week, working as a server and doing an internship that involved me being in the sun. I weighed 76 kilograms and kept wondering why I was injured all the time.

Retail therapy and 'eating feelings' are the same thing. Only one is considered explicitly disordered.

Consumerism is a function of capitalism induced boredom.

Napster gives power to people. Anthropic gives power to capital.

Another I cannot/will not read: The Rape of Nanking. Iris Chang. DO NOT GOOGLE IMAGES. DO NOT GOOGLE IMAGES. DO NOT GOOGLE IMAGES. If you think you have seen the worst things ever recorded. You have not seen the top 100. The writer commited suicide not longer after due to her research.

I can usually handle anything in print or movies as long as it is not too much sexual violence. I tried to read the comic Ice Cream Man a few years ago and although it was not scary it was very darksided. I had to stop and I am concerned about the writer and artist.

Sports is the closest you have to meritocracy under capitalism. It is emblematic of society how consumers want this capped even though the money saved is going to flow upwards. Not into paying for stadiums or player pensions. Just billionaire wealth and insurance for bad management.

If your owner sucks without a salary cap, they’re probably gonna suck with one.

Ironically Toyota caused this.

I slept 3 hours and went to the gym then work. I still do this part because I have a sickness in me.

My friend called me around midnight. After a 3 hour workout, 3 hours of classes and a full shift at Outback. About 16 hours. She wanted me to drive them to a strip club as I do not drink and lived next to her. Driving home at dawn she said "we can't do this anymore." I was 25, she 24. She was right.

I could not do this at 9. You people had fun childhoods.

Even more specifically: 2029-2032, strait or Malaca. Panama or Suez canals if it is a logistics calamity.

I think that a large fossil fuel company is going to use a LLM and it is going to cause an oil spill worse than Deepwater Horizon. It will be the environmental movements Sandy Hook or Las Vegas shooting. My more precise guess is a service or chemical company. Halliburton, Schlumberger or Petronas.

Just enough people, regardless of their broader social class, do not want an egalitarian society. They see the hunter and instead of wondering how to get the guns in the hands of the rabbits or getting rid of the hunters they aspire towards being able to massacre bunnies.

OP actually you very clearly & concisely described the exact line of thinking that outcrops from individualism derived capitalism. All of our hypercapitalist uber rich who control *something* (media empire, a tech corp, a resource, territory etc.) come up against the ‘Might As Well Be Me’ conundrum.

There is a certain type of person, usually a man, that goes all-in on any probably nefarious technology created by the West. Cryptocurrency, NFTs, and now large language models.

Conservatives at least have the confidence, or lack of intelligence, to articulate why they are ostracized. Liberals just assume everyone with sense is some sort of deranged maniac.

What's Behind Fuel Shortage in Bali? Pertamina Explains

Between Ukraine and Iran, this is going to happen more frequently because supply chains are deliberately extremely thin already to maximize profits and minimize waste. The latter only matters to facilitate the former.

Bali Governor Wayan Koster stated that fuel has been distributed since Monday evening.

Nuclear weaponry has been the Sword of Damocles since 45. Climate change has been devastating humans since the 70s. People are indifferent or in denial yet are aware of these effects. Nuclear war is so ingrained that it gives 8.3 billion people steady cortisol we only occasionally acknowledge.

The West threatened to invade North Korea for decades then Kim Jong Un'(s sister) faked his death so he could find out who hated him, then officially announced the nation had ICBMs capable of nuclear payload delivery. The west has been much less belligerent.

In 2018 millions of people in Hawaii thought that they were about to die in a nuclear attack and it has disappeared from public discourse.

A few months ago I sat down and read the technical details of what happened at Chernobyl and I yelled at the paper multiple times.
