iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

It's the thing that has tipped me into believing we are living in a simulation.

Somebody REALLY built up Buttercup!

I took about 50 photos as I genuinely couldn't believe it. You could see it from a mile away.

I saw an absolutely massive cow today. You could not imagine how big it was. No bigger that that. Nice try, but bigger. Just have a look it's easier... What the fuck happened here?

Massive cow, might be standing on something to look taller...

Like wtf, how is this cow three times bigger than the other cows.

Considering the cost of living and fuel crisis... ...how much do you think it would cost for a family of four to go to Jurassic Park for a long weekend?

Yeah i wondered if it was from room the bones or because they look liked sweets or something they heard at nursery. Ive asked why call them that but his "I just do." response hasn't helped.

My 4yr old went through my desk drawers and found some dice. He said, "Oh look some boiled gums!" I forgot about it until this morning when he ran in and rolled a big foam dice from a game and shouted, "ROLL THE BOILED GUM!" I have no idea where this has come from or what he's misheard. Any clues?

I'd like a small device That vibrates in my pocket When in proximity with people That I know or at least knew. And the intensity of vibration Is an indictaion of the chance That they still remember me. So that they don't feel awkward Or confused By a stranger saying hello.

A small badge, that everybody wears. It comes in two colours. And everybody is taught that one colour Means I am happy to make small talk. While the other Means I am more comfortable with silence.

I watched the original Jury Duty and I was one of my favourite TV shows. Im just starting the follow up, Company Retreat and its fucking awful. It's so unnatural. Its like they tried to make the American office but shit. Never one is trying to be a character. Does it get better? Can it get better?

Is he any good at it? You'd have to ask him... though he'll tell you that he's pretty, prettyyyyyy, pretty good.

I'm meant to be at the gym but instead I'm being told off as today it became obvious that I have been teaching my four year old the expressions and mannerisms of Larry David.

It truly is the worst of us.

Adam @therewillbegin.bsky.social · 04/06/2026

Woken up to a LinkedIn post where someone has spun changing a battery on a handheld vacuum into a three paragraph post on product design, sustainability, and sucking their own dick about how fucking amazing they are to consider doing that. I cannot continue to quietly hold this anger inside of me.

Told my boss my weekend plans were to go home and cry about this week until my financial situation forced me to come back again next week... in front of the work experience student. He didn't look best impressed.

Unintentionally, obviously. I'm not doing it for kicks. Not with raspberry jam anyway.

Adam @therewillbegin.bsky.social · 24/04/2026

When they announce they have cracked teleportation, the first thing I want to see it used for is teleporting jam into the middle of doughnuts, removing the need for an insertion hole that upon first bite inevitably becomes a jam exit hole, squirting jam into my lap.

Its a get to know your colleagues thing. The compact is not extrovert heavy at all. Very much the opposite. I'm considered extroverted there.

They tried to do a career speed dating event recently seemingly unaware of the issues with that.

Just been asked to sign up to "Coffee Roulette" at work. You're randomly assigned a person from another part of the business and then have to arrange a 30 minute chat over coffee. I've told them I'd rather play Russian Roulette.

More important: can you remember when every weekend sports halls across the globe were being repurposed for large scale domino toppling world record attempts? "Badminton court please." "Not today, sunshine. Not today." They were fucking shite.

Hello. I don't come online much but I have two things I need to say. Less important: Last One Laughing 2 isnt as good as 1 but it's really annoyed me also (internet annoyed I dont really care) Amy G did not deserve a red card for that smile while Mel G is constantly walking around pulling that face.

Adam @therewillbegin.bsky.social · 21/03/2026

Sat out in my garden in the first warm sun of the year. A nice coffee and listening to Brothers in Arms (song not album). What* could be better? *not counting that** **you know.

I am personally less familiar with that album but the room here agrees

Yes had the first one in the maybe pile. >ll have a register to The Wall.

100

Yes we've got that one. Great album.

011

Adam @therewillbegin.bsky.social · 08/03/2026

What are genuinely, perfect 10/10 out of ten albums. Not a bad song on there. Discussing in the pub.

Its at great park just on the edge of gosforth

Went to watch the murmurations over Newcastle tonight. Such an amazing things to see. The pictures dont do it justice. Ive seen them before but the scale of this one tonight was much bigger than I've ever seen. The video compression on this app doesn't help.

Anyway, I hope this rant/vent finds you all well?

I genuinely cant stop thinking about it. 6 of them. In the engineering teams even if there had been 12 of them we'd have all offered to half them etc. I hope the multiverse theory is true because nothing happened to him in this one.

Greedy fucker! I don't know him that well but I know all I ever need to know about him now. Fucking clueless. Not someone who needed the food, easily clearing 6 figures a year. Just 'I'll have these for me with no thought of sharing' I know it might seem minor but I can't get my head around it?

So the guy come back in and says, "Oh there's a few left. And a few in that bag, I'll put them all in here one bag..." I'm thinking I'd rather he wasn't touching them to transfer into one bag before taking them to the kitchen? BUT THEN HE SAYS... "And I'll have these for my lunch."

210

At this stage it's important to say this could have been doughnuts just as easily but it wasn't here.

So usually this goes one of two ways. There's a polite, "Anyone want another song they dont go to waste?" Then if its a large number they would be taken to the kitchen and left by the coffee machine or a smaller number then maybe back to the office for the rest of the team not at the meeting.

Anyway, one person decided they were too important in their world to attend the full three hours (but in reality, insignificant enough their presence was not needed or missed). Anyway they wander back at the end to thank everyone. I know, You know I'm coming back to the big biscuits...

Adam @therewillbegin.bsky.social · 19/02/2026

Is this strange? There was a meeting today and someone brought biscuits for the break, big ones, you might call them cookies if that was your thing, though it doesn't sit right with me.

Had a really strange sensation when driving this morning. Going round a bend to a slip road it felt like it wasn't getting closer. I was doing 70 and it was a 200ish yards away but although driving towards it, it never felt like it was getting closer. Like I was being imperceptibly reset in time.

Every Winter Olympic event looks like a game thought up by kids that their teachers eventually have to ban on the playground.

030

Not as fun as those two conversations suggest.

100

Its not even the first time someone in office has made a dildo comment that I've decided against replying too. One of the engineers was telling me about the works night out at some bingo type thing and that she won she won a massive dildo saying, "What am I meant to do with that?!" I didn't answer.

100

It was definitely a new one on me. Caught me completely off gaurd, was about to attempt a reply but could already hear the call from HR.

Adam @therewillbegin.bsky.social · 17/02/2026

Just heard the most uexpected turn of phrase. Chatting to a woman in the office, don't know her really, but quite senior so was reaching for some safe small talk & ended up talking about the Winter Olympics. She said she couldn't do ski-jump as she would end up "landing like a sack of dildos".

Thanks for the rec. Had difficulty booking some places due to it being valentines day but managed to get into Shebabs! Very nice but yes traffic was chaos around there.
