iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

Saw a bunch of AZ house ads for some reason last night but funny to me that Dems in multiple races/states leading their ads with “I’m going to ban insider stock trading in Congress!” A) No you won’t B) If you’re gonna pretend you’ll get something done, can we at least go bigger?

For the pro-life party, miscarriages are treated as murder but the government creating such subhuman conditions for detainees - many of whom have committed no criminal offense whatsoever - that they die is the system working as intended.

Begging a reporter to just ask him any basic question about AI like, "How do LLMs work?" or "What does LLM stand for?" "How are AIs trained?" And see what high IQ answer he comes up with.

Seeing Joe Manchin endorse Susan Collins and just have to underscore that dude's entire career has been defined solely by betraying Democrats. My grandma worked on Charlotte Pritt's WV gubernatorial campaign in 1996. When Pritt beat Manchin, he endorsed the Republican.

Every second a Democrat spends thinking or talking about Piker is a second they could be talking about how Donald Trump is playing Legos with public buildings and coloring in maps instead of lifting a finger for the American people.

Cy Klone @sighclone.bsky.social · 27/08/2026

I don't interact with Trumpists - live in one of the bluest cities in America, my family doesn't suck. But like, what is there even to talk about? "Sure, the only person whose life has materially improved under Trump was the accomplice to America's most prolific pedophile, but he RENAMED THE GULF!"

Cy Klone @sighclone.bsky.social · 27/08/2026

So if I understand correctly, Trump can basically order the Board of Geographic Names to rename places to whatever he wants? It's true weakness that he's only renaming a lake. Let's name Canada America's Hat. Or every country as "Not America." We're in the dumbest version of reality, why not?

Holy fucking shit, @bencollins.bsky.social - JD Vance and Joe Rogan are literally doing the "It goes all the way up to the almost top!" bit but seriously.

Tweet from the Bulwark quoting from a video of the Joe Rogan Podcast with guest Vice President JD Vance where they say the following:

Rogan: Most people think Epstein was Mossad.

Vance: "Ya. Mossad or CIA or some other deep state, whether in America or Israel…He clearly had connections to the highest levels of American intelligence. He clearly had connections to the highest level of Israeli intelligence."

I'll be honest, I didn't pay a ton of attention to Platner because I'm not a Maine voter and just wanted them to pick someone to take Collins out. But man, hearing bits of his drop out speech from last night and what an asshole. Angry folks don't understand the bullet they have dodged.

So just to be clear about how this works - when it comes to Muslim children existing, Republicans don't care about religious liberty. But when it comes to their opposition to banning child marriage, Republicans become very concerned about respecting parents' rights and religious freedom.

For decades, Court conservatives have smugly put forward originalism as the only worthy method of Constitutional interpretation. But the Constitution is suddenly a living document when that might empower authoritarians to strip citizenship from brown people.

Also... isn't there just actual real-world data that already disproves this? DC just elected a self-described Democratic Socialist over Bowser 2.0 and the turnout for that primary was like, less than 25% of registered voters.

Remember when the Republicans were all like, "AOC's Green New Deal is gonna make it so you can't have hamburgers!" And now, their policy is, "You should be grateful that ground beef is 300% more expensive!"

Fuck these people. "Look, there is no evidence we can find of fraud, because there is none. But you have to admit that our constantly pretending there *is* fraud is undermining voter confidence, so really, we should just give elections only to Republicans." That's their position on democracy.

99% of the stuff in this NYT Platner article would be viewed as a badge of honor by the right if he were running as a Republican, including and especially the "I would totally rape an intruder, but like, not in a gay way," story... Which, it should hopefully be clear is not a defense of Platner.

Wish that a single journalist in this country would bring Scott Pelley's attitude-towards-management to conversations like this. This is patently idiotic on multiple levels. Prediction markets aren't an innovation - it's gambling. Making Congressional betting "subject to a blind trust" is nonsense.

This is also why I think Dems need to be more clear-eyed around stopping grift. From supplements, to MLMs, to crypto/memecoins and stocks, all of this stuff fuels the extreme rightwing while also taking advantage of Americans.

So what, exactly, is the principle that Trump and his sycophants will try to advance here? Trump has obviously cheered on the death of his rivals in the past. So - it's fine to do that, but to make a joke about someone else anticipating such a death is beyond the pale?

Wild to just describe Swalwell/Gonzalez conduct as just "horniness." Also wild that Boebert who, uh, got caught giving a handjob in the audience of a family musical is getting on her high horse re: horniness.

Tweet from Katie Taylor: "I asked Rep Lauren Boebert if more needs to be done to prevent lawmakers from harassing staff

"Yeah. Go to church. Find Jesus. Like, I mean, why is everybody so horny here?" she said

Reps Swalwell & Gonzales announced they are leaving Congress this week amid misconduct claims"

So folks claiming the President is a deeply religious man have a choice: A) Either he blasphemed and then bore false witness about just thinking it was for doctors; OR B) He's so unfamiliar with religious iconography, and so deeply stupid, that he sincerely thought this is what doctors look like
