iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

I found myself in a Conan O'Brien @ConanOBrien YouTube clip wormhole, and he kept bringing up Train Dreams (2025). Part of the film portrays a fire over Bonner's Ferry, ID. I worked on a fire in the same location, about 110 years later. Thank you for the recommendation, Conan.

Ground turkey, broccoli, kidney beans, cherry tomatoes, red chili flakes, onion powder, salt.

The complete meme reversal on alcohol makes me sad. But in a nation where alcohol was legal, constitutionally prohibited, and then legalized again, perhaps such is our destiny.

Idea for a cringe workout post: The wildland firefighter workout: 14 sets of 16-hour workdays, hard manual labor (lifting, hiking, etc); suboptimal nutrition; suboptimal sleep; suboptimal air quality. Followed by: 2-5 sets of Rest and Recovery days; sleep and nutrition varies.

"American Indian or Alaska Native" is an official racial category used by IPEDS (Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System), which is required by law for colleges to complete. Anybody working in accreditation/higher education is familiar. Sources in comment.

After college, I see a lot of writing from various sources saying that a major point of college is the "networking." This is a totally novel idea to me, no one ever said such a thing while I was in high school.

I dissected a frog in school once, and squids on three separate occasions in school. I didn't eat the frog, but I did get to eat the squids afterwards. From one of the squid dissections, I even received some extra squids to take home to dissect and eat.

Eating rarely ever fully gets rid of the sensation of hunger for me. I stop eating because my stomach is full, but I usually still feel hungry.

Jim's Best Of 2025 Not so many books this year. 2025 was kind of a 'catch up' year in many ways, books were the side show. More next year.

Saw the new Avatar movie. The original was about the world, the two followups are about the characters. I like the characters. If you like the characters, Fire and Ash will be a fun weekend.

When I was a kid, my family sometime referred to pooping as "dropping a bomb." We stopped doing that after our first airplane trip together.

I watched the new Frankenstein movie. I'm glad to see monstrous and hideous tall-skinny guy representation. Other takeaways: -The entire movie looked like a videogame. -I'm happy the movie didn't need to be a romance despite being about love.

When I was young, I tried building a raft to float down a creek. This 'raft' was really just some logs and branches wrangled together, didn't get anywhere. Some people rode a 'raft' across the Pacific. A few rode a 'raft' all the way to the Moon and back. All the same isn't it?

Hollow Knight hot take: The Knight gifting Delicate Flowers undermines it being sufficiently hollow to contain the Radiance. The Hollow Knight failed to because it had a shred of emotion, it wasn't a perfect vessel. Gifting flowers has no functional benefit, why do it at all?
