iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

I don't have any useful thoughts about it all beyond how terrible it all is... but if you have a skeleton in your closet that big, and you decide to be a public figure, you *have* to know you're on borrowed time. You can't believe this is going to last.

Hey you know how when Tucker Carlson or Nick Fuentes toss out some nominally left wing position, and everyone immediately recognizes it as an attempt to rehabilitate their image and infiltrate new audiences? Maybe stop praising the Pope just because he hates AI, like everyone else does.

So, with the whole Skydance thing, there is a hypothetical that may not play out, but in case it does end up airing on Nickelodeon, no, I will not take Sample Platter requests on the Harry Potter show.

Several weeks ago, Phil Tippett's legendary animation studio in Berkeley, CA closed. An anonymous hero noticed a folder of CDs. This turned out to be hundreds of unseen hi-res images and videos from Star Wars, Robocop, Jurassic Park, etc. ~90 isos for you to browse: archive.org/details/tipp...

A casual Star Wars alien fella at the cantina, in a sun faded, reddish photo. Someone will be mad at me for not knowing who this is.

Phil, a balding Caucasian man, poses a model of the garthok, an antagonist from the Coneheads movie.

Phil, a balding caucasian man, points at some CG on a CRT computer monitor, as a younger man looks on. The screen shows a model of a dinosaur attacking a jeep, while there's an actual physical model of that event in the foreground for reference.

I talk about these films a lot, so I decided to do something more sudoku with My 9 Movies, with each row and column being a themed triple feature, all films I personally love.

My 9 Movies: F For Fake (1973), Last Year at Marienbad (1961), Mulholland Drive (2001), I Saw the TV Glow (2024), House (1977), Picnic at Hanging Rock (1975), Whisper of the Heart (1995), Labyrinth (1987), Amélie (2001)

Now that I've tried it, I can safely say that having Youtube lie and double my video view count, counting every bot and person who scanned a second of it before moving on has NOT improved the video making experience. Everything is fake now and I hate it.

On top of radio stations servicing regional demographics, meaning what's on the pop station in L.A. will be very different to the pop station in Boise, we have to accept that streaming has split pop culture into a million fractals.

ICYMI, I decided to end the Kickstarter, and start a Patreon instead! It was clear I was not going to reach the goal (Only raised 2% of it in 15 days), and figured I should just downscale the project until I've built up enough of a following.

The Internet Archive is great research, but it's also great for when you just need a random episode of A Pup Named Scooby-Doo at decent enough quality for some b-roll.

I firmly believe that we (queer ppl and especially trans ppl) should never talk to the press about intra-community conflicts. I can’t see any way that it can benefit us, and it’s obvious how it can hurt us.

It’s very simple. A reality TV host became dictator because he turned down a role for Sharknado 4 and that’s why the king of outer space, who cheats at Diablo, got to kill Africa. Now the economy is controlled by a sex cult that has something to do with Harry Potter fanfic because of robots.
