iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

If the "conservative" party is railing against the literal foundation of this country (liberalism) and they're also railing against socialism or progressivism even harder then there's only really one thing they can be! and anyone who didn't realize this in 2016 is bad at political analysis

It's 2026 and people still use the word liberal when they mean progressive or leftist. Ronald Reagan was a liberal. Words mean things. They don't stop meaning things just because there's been a 40+ year psyop to associate the word with anything other than what it is: free market capitalist

missed National Coming Out Day. but came across this screenshot of the mass email i sent 12 years ago!

mass email from me when i transitioned. the body of the email reads-
"about 15 years ago i sent out a mass email stating that i had used the Troy Aikman quarterback rating system to decide that the right choice was to switch email providers from Aol to Comcast. using the same system i'm pleased to announce that the Troy Aikman quarterback ratings system has given me the clarity to go ahead and switch genders.
i'm available to anyone by phone that would like to crunch the numbers. thanks eveyrbody and sorry for the mass email! and thanks Troy Aikman!"

5 years of volcanic bird enemy and the voiced concern and it still hits like a freight train. Best full record Lil Ugly Mane has put out and a top 15, maybe 10 favorite of mine, all time. Deeply important to the last 5 years of my life, cannot recommend it enough

Now that it's been out a while, I find it genuinely really funny that Dragon's Dogma 2 had the exact same life cycle as the original. Not even disappointed about it lmao. One day we will get a single complete game with these ideas, I have faith

The AI backlash is completely the fault of the dishonest hype merchants whose only talent is innovating new ways of lying. You pissed people off, now everyone hates you (justified) and your tech (less justified, but again, your fault)

I think it's closer to the truth that LLMs *can* save time on *some tasks* which can be valuable *if* you monitor them and check their output. But that doesn't get you a trillion dollars so they have to squint into the middle distance and say stupid sci fi bullshit instead

A system of infinite growth operating within a greater system (the fucking planet lol) with finite resources leads to inevitable conquest of those with less by those with more Wonder if any random guys in Germany or Russia wrote about this over a century ago

Nobody in Oklahoma knew what Twitter was when I was deeply active on Twitter, and now that Twitter is a hellscape for and by fascist perverts, people assume I know what's going on there Being a tall white man in the Midwest DOES have a downside and it's this lol

Being asked stuff about AI doesn't really bother me - I am everyone's tech support against my will, it's expected. But I did just get asked if I know anything about the one that generated a bunch of CSAM in public, and I'm slightly offended by the notion to begin with. I'm a nerd, not a degenerate.

I do think things are going to get really bad before they get better, but we have each other. There are so, so many more of us than there are of them. Here, and around the world.

mike @teamzxcv.com · 04/10/2026

Most/all of the talk about AI is smoke and mirrors imo, a way to abstract the blame for the imminent risks of climate change. See also: far right nationalism in the U.S./Europe The sea is changing, literally, and that will lead to a sea change, metaphorically, and we can redirect this ship.

mike @teamzxcv.com · 04/10/2026

I think the most important thing to remember about the current times is that this is not the first, or second, or third (and arguably even more than that), the upper class has attempted to seize complete power in the U.S. to slow social change. It doesn't last. Our own history says we win this.

Fortune's Weave is a massive fucking game. I've finished Leda/Cai's paths, and I'm halfway through Theodora's right now. I'm closing in on 90 hours. Haven't touched part 2 at all yet, and still have Dietrich's My NG+ file on 3 Houses was on its 6th or 7th run. FW is everything I wanted it to be 🤙🏻

It's too depressing and obnoxious to write about, but virtually all of the doomy/horny AI hyperventilating is transparently displaced anxiety about our fucked climate and political situation. Even rich idiots know it's bad and being permitted to get worse. They're trying to write their own ending.
