iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

Oh, right. As if the south hasn't served as our albatross for the past couple hundred years. Don't like the truth? I do not care.

Gaming today. World of Darkness. Already this morning I've encountered just enough stupid for my tastes. I'm not arguing history with people who don't REMEMBER any of it.

Look at France, actually protecting itself.

Was contacted by a former friend a few weeks ago, trying to reconnect now that the GF who insulted my wife without apology has passed. Just found out yesterday he's a Trumper now, so I don't know WHAT he was thinking. Want a mutual friend to laugh in his face for me, but he won't.

Got to the point I figured I'd go back to the beginning and start preliminary editing. My brain decided that, no, I was going to make everything worse. So I went to bed. Stupid brain.

These people have no freakin' idea what the hell they're doing.

France. To the U.S. "This is how you deal with this kind of criminal. Pay attention." Except, you know, in French.

Here's the thing. I've never been in the class that could think of vacationing in a foreign country. Vacation means I don't have to do the shit my boss says for a week or two. For you it means going somewhere cool. We are not the same.

Sometime very soon we’re going to have to have the conversation about how many so-called progressives also wanted “DEI” to die & what all that mainstream endorsement of the propaganda around what at their essence were integration efforts says about people who believe themselves to be the good guys.

Unless you absolutely dedicate yourself to do the best you can as long as you can for everyone around you, fame is unlikely to be worth much in the end. It's fleeting, so what's the point of chasing it as if it's its own reward? How could it be?

I see the whole "We don't want to listen to anyone who actually knows what they're doing" administration is getting off to a bangin' start.

After 2 months of the current administration, it's clear Putin has no idea how to run the United States

Two possibilities come to mind. Either that thing on Donald's head is an alien brain sucker slowly starving to death, or it's very deliberately placed there to keep the 666 from showing.

It's like Americans, collectively, said "A GIRL PRESIDENT? Ewwww." Twice. And now look.

Richard Chamberlain apparently came out at the age of 68. Glad he was able to do it finally. So many people got to be who they really are, in a brief moment of time before the need for perfect tore the crap out of good enough to bear our standard.

Attention all traditional American allies: Regardless of the current hostility by the current administration, the bulk of America considers you an ally and values your friendship.

It’s pretty easy to imagine the trends we’ve seen from smartphones (alienation, anxiety, reduced reading comprehension and persistence) compounded dramatically by LLMs.

Something Bizarre Is Happening to People Who Use ChatGPT a Lot

ChatGPT "power users," or those who use it the most, are becoming dependent upon — or even addicted to — the chatbot.

Cannot be emphasized enough: Barack Obama successfully negotiated a deal to stop Iran's nuclear program. Trump, having inherited a vastly improved situation with Iran, deliberately tore it up. The fact that they are now on the verge of having nuclear weapons is entirely his fault.

A chart of Iran's stockpile of low-enriched uranium, which climbs from 2008 to 2015 when JCPOA is signed and then drops to near nothing... until Donald Trump withdraws from JCPOA and it climbs again.

Can I just say Unleash the Archers would have melted our brains in the eighties and The Warning would have left us punch-drunk.

Fighting DIFFERENT HEADS of the SAME HYDRA thinking you're fighting a different monster entirely. It's destroying us.

It's one reason I'm slightly more inclined to trust women over men in positions of power. Not saying they don't EVER do this, but it seems less likely to go under anyone's radar when they do. These people need handled. And not with any particular gentleness.

020

This lines up almost perfectly with my own thinking on the matter. We have to be ONE MOVEMENT or we've FUCKED.

If you meet someone who wants to see the dog die, you've met a messed up individual. And a lot of women listen to true crime for tips on how to avoid being murdered by people they trust. My wife likes the puzzle aspect. Me? I know more than I want to already.

They elected an egomaniac, who teamed up with another egomaniac, and these two egomaniacs are wrecking everything they can get their grubby little hands on. The only people who are surprised are the people who helped them into power and the people who were no fucking help at all.

000

Let's just say life trained me to keep an eye on the horizon to see what horror would be rolling toward me next. Now everyone else gets to share in that and I'd just as soon they didn't have to. But I don't always get what I want. Or much at all.

000

Due process exists for a reason. If they can drop it for anyone, they can drop it for YOU.

All of this pisses me off SO MUCH. Fellow the other day telling me to table my rage or whatever, to "act my age." You don't think I have a right to be angry at those I believe helped put us here? Why should I even care what you think?

Peers in grade school would try to insult me by calling me "fairy." I had no context for this insult, as I literally only understood the reference to the Fey. It wasn't actually insulting? But they were equally baffled and annoyed by my rejoinder of "Warlock." I got beat up a lot.

000

Just putting this out there. Does anyone else find Bill Maher simply intolerable? I have for decades now. It's gratifying other folks see through his smug, dismissive horseshit.

000

People should REALLY learn to say what they mean. It's astonishing how often I read something and have to wonder "What the hell do you even MEAN by that?" You do get that people need context a lot of the time, right?

000

Yes, the right will twist anything they can into whatever shape they can. My whole point is we shouldn't make it EASIER on them to do this by being sloppy with language. As much as MAGA is crazy and stupid, I swear some of my allies are wandering around in the weeds themselves.

000

One thing my habit of observing thing from multiple angles does is confer a sense of nuance. If you only see things from standard angles, refuse to see the oblique, nuance is so easily lost. But almost everything is more complicated than that.

000

Trump is one reason I think our idea of karma is horseshit. And, no, I don't actually buy into the original idea either. What they're talking about isn't justice. You don't learn shit if you don't remember why you're suffering in the first place.

000

People using ChatGPT to do their homework are really worried about AI art. Hahaha. Yeah. It's all the same, man. You might not pay a writer to do your papers, but you lose appreciation for writing when you use shortcuts like that.

The reason DEI exists is so that competent, qualified people don't get passed over in favor of mediocre incompetent white men who had a well-connected buddy. Or so that utter morons who share war plans on the group chat don't hire their brother and get away with it bc they're white dudes.
