iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

I'm sad that I had to hide my Telegram handle on Barq, but there was just too much bot spam. I guess if someone wants to contact me, they'll have to find me elsewhere or just use the Barq DMs 😭

Mrs. B's car is down. The coolant leak is back. Now I have to play chauffeur for everyone this week, just as gas approaches $5/gal. I am tiring of this world. I am weary from this life. I will continue, however, because people depend on me...

The last time a public figure said "let them eat cake," it didn't end well for her. One can only hope the same might happen soon to some public officials...

One of my boys sensed my discomfort, and has come to sit with me.

My wife turned on The Backrooms... I am very uncomfortable right now.

Scamp has come a long way... a month ago, he couldn't look at me without cowering. Now, he won't let me out of his sight.

Protein pancakes with a little ricotta mixed in hit so good this morning. Of course, plenty of butter and a drizzle of syrup helped.

Gloomy, rainy morning. Bed is warm and soft. I am wrapped up in the covers. Happy.

I never appreciated how abysmally slow Starbucks' Wi-Fi is until just now. I'm installing a nodejs project that took maybe a minute at home... here, it's going on at least 8 minutes. I'd change to my phone's hotspot, but I don't want to mess up the installation.

I just hit a spate of diaper kink posts on my Discover feed. What the hell, Bluesky? I have repeatedly indicated I didn't want to see things like that, but you then binge it for me?? (Not kink shaming, it's just not my cup of tea)

Quietly sipping my old fashioned and singing "Why don't we get drunk and screw" in my head. Wishful thinking.

If the government has the money to make bullshit propaganda ads and pay for the airtime, then I don't need to pay for my fucking federal loans. I'm absolutely certain that the nation has reaped a greater economic benefit from my education than what those lame ass ads have.

We are so great right now... 😏

I wish there was a cuddle buddy nearby... would love to snuggle up and get comfy with someone for a few hours.

It's so lovely outside. I wish I had a hammock stand for my camping hammock. Absolutely perfect swinging weather.

Tommy needs to go take an extended dip in the Gulf... perhaps with some cinder blocks attached to his ankles. Seriously?? In the U.S. Senate?? Man, you can fuck right off with that shit. Alabama, you're hoeing us out so bad with this loser. youtube.com/shorts/F6SC1...

The patience of Job is showing for me today. I am working on a project that has literally been running for most of the year. I was dragged on to it in July. I have been blocked at every stage by the inaction of others.

So, is everyone going to update their profiles to change AI to SI now, or are we all cool with the term "Super Intelligence?"

It's cool and rainy here in the Mid-Atlantic states... perfect cuddle weather, if you can get em. I'll just burrow under the covers alone and squeeze my plushies tonight, I guess.

This Cleveland Jr. looking mf has the unmitigated gall to call Mayor Mamdani and millions of registered voters in NYC "wackjobs," but balks at anyone who would dare question the lucidity of Trump. He better sleep with one eye open in NYC now... being that they're crazy and all according to him 🤣

Gods, I need to be cuddled in the worst way. Why is it so hard to find a cuddle buddy?

We can't let this happen... not enough noise is being made about it. Regardless of how you may feel about these outlets, THIS IS WRONG. This is how democracy dies, people. youtu.be/U9zwYkxcqkc

Trump KICKS THEM OUT…

What if... the latest "AI is going to kill us soon" hype is really just a distraction from the fact that the world is absolutely falling apart because of stupid men with tiny dicks over-compensating for their shortcomings (or raging against their latent homosexuality)? Just thinking out loud again.

The fucking back to school bug might have bitten me. Woke up with a slightly stuffy nostril. I flushed it, gargled with Listerine and have been chugging water. I will get Zicam this morning. Fucking gross ah public schools, human children, and their germs. I can't be sick right now.

I think Mrs. B has really made peace with my sexuality... she was asking if we're going to go to Pride events someday, because she wants to make a t-shirt that says "I'm not gay, but my husband is." Yeah, she's got a sense of humor.

Who needs lip plumper when an hour of horn playing does even better... and you even feel better all over... and it's free!! (Assuming you have one)

I think that at this point, Donald Trump should be labeled an enemy of the state. Anyone associated with him should also carry this label. Anyone who still supports him should be branded as traitors, and anyone who voted for him should counted as aiding and abetting a criminal.

I feel strangely validated by this... wish I could find more like-minded creatures to commune with.

Really getting fed up with all of the non-technical requirements of just being able to add a simple class and service definition for something. I've been waiting weeks now for something that's going to take me an afternoon to complete.

Damn, no Adam Mockler on NewsNight this evening with Scott Jennings on the panel. I really want to see Adam clown him again to the point he blows up... it's so lovely to see him laid low by a guy that's probably young enough to be his kid.

I wish that there was a way for us to simply expel all 435 members of Congress, and start over with a clean slate, reduced perks, and strict term limits. Now, they basically make $15K a month, plus benefits, plus expenses, plus a litany of perks. Mike Johnson just gave them a six-week vacation.

This is Scamp. My 'lil fella. He's smol, skittish, but so sweet. He decided that he was going to spend the day with me today... this is how it went.

Kash, what about the bestiality? You never answered the question for Mr. Kennedy...

This is not my country anymore... it's something else. I feel like I'm stuck in a place that is actively working to force conformity and compliance, and it's no longer the land of the free or the home of the brave. youtube.com/shorts/6a-O1...

When telling my therapist about something that happened in my past, he responds with "that's fucked." I immediately then try to reframe it to take blame off of family members, because I can't stand the idea of them being made out as the bad guy. Am I cooked, chat?

Watching squirrels running around this morning makes me wish I had a squirrelfriend. The little hops, scampers, and the twitchy fluffy tails are just so adorable. Would definitely love to give one a loving squeeze.
