iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

When young adults wear distressed vintage logo T-shirts, they look cool. When _I_ wear them, people think I took pretty decent care of a shirt I bought in the 1900's... not exactly the same effect 😄 🤨 😭

I really wish social platforms would add the option to report scraper accounts, but we all know it wouldn't serve their own interest -- they'll never do it. We have to do the work ourselves.

This scraper account posts other people’s stuff without credit. They grudgingly post a separate attribution after the fact, if enough people call them out. Any time an account says “dm me if you own the original,” just put them on the block list. Don’t let these accounts get a foothold here.

I rarely delve into design critiques, but kudos to the graphic designer on their fantastic marriage of old & new styling to hawk Apple's latest tech. The classic font (Apple Garamond) slightly off-white in deference to it's legacy, the old rainbow logo, the pinstriping… just an excellent execution.

Talking to a friend about trivial, insignificant things that annoy us, yet we can and/or will do nothing about. For me? Subway tiles installed vertically instead of horizontally. Do we build houses with vertical bricks? No, because we're not monsters 🤣 Add your own — what drives YOU up the wall?

I really hate the “I don’t owe anyone anything” mentality because we actually owe each other and this planet a lot. You don’t have to be selfless all the time or burn yourself out but you should be kind and helpful and compassionate to the best of your ability. We need to care about each other more

St. Louis Metro: National Weather Service has issued an Excessive Heat Warning today through July 3rd -- with high temperatures + high humidity, the Heat Index will be pushing 111ºF (43.88ºC).

That's a little on-the-nose, don't you think? 🫤 Typography matters, folks *sighs*

Picture is a photograph of a woman, smiling, while in a department store, holding up a package of what appears to be oval-shaped disposable paper plates, with a U.S. flag designer around the outer rim of the plates. In the center, in large type, it reads "United States of America 1776 - 2006" -- while meant to annotate the 250th anniversary of the USA, it reads and appears much more like a lifespan epigraph on a tombstone)

You know very well that 85% of Jews don't support AIPAC, not even close. You also know that AIPAC doesn't even claim to be a Jewish group. You also know that there are more "Christian Zionists" in the US, than there are Jews, of any beliefs. You are making US Jews less safe.

Screenshot of tweet by @JGreenblattADL:
"No matter what spin he puts on it, Mayor Mamdani has chosen to double down on his vilification and demonization of those who support Israel and a strong U.S.-Israel relationship.

In his mind, does that make 85%+ of the Jewish community “monsters”?"

I was told the resemblance was striking... because apparently even in a previous life, I was perpetually disappointed. 😂 "Marquis Ambrogio Spinola", by Reubens, from the St. Louis Art Museum (SLAM) collection

Photo is of the painting "Marquis Ambrogio Spinola", by Reubens, from the St. Louis Art Museum (SLAM) collection. It is a portrait of a middle-aged man from the Renaissance period, wearing what appears to be an armored chest plate with a silk shirt underneath, a red scarf of some kind tied around his left bicep, a rather large, white Elizabethan collar, and what appears to be a war helmet with red and white plumage sitting next to him. On his face is the look of disappointment that can only come from uncomfortably sitting for hours on end in armor and an Elizabethan collar, just for a painting.

A very real potential future: 1) AI continues "writing" error-riddled slop 2) Humans write corrections 3) Original articles are so terrible, corrections start becoming longer than original stories 4) Readers start cutting out the middle-man, and just skip straight to reading the 'corrections'

Shout-out for Rob Navias, NASA Public Affairs Officer & Mission Commentator. What a breath of fresh air, hearing a consummate professional speak intelligently, honestly, and with candor during an event. Felt like a kid again, harkening back to the days of legends like Cronkite, Brokaw, and Jennings.

Currently searching the local bookstore's website for "1,000 Things to Make With Bananas in Them" 😳

a screenshot of a text sent from a personal shopping service from the grocery store. The shopper has sent the text message "Sorry, your 'Ripe' preference for Banana wasn't available. Your shopper went ahead and grabbed this instead." -- which is followed by a photo the shopper took of an entire banana display shelf at the store, holding about 100 bananas, giving the impression that they will be replacing a single ripe banana with all the bananas that are available at the store.

We genuinely need a revival of virtue in the United States. In my view, that’s almost as critical a project as any other structural reform project necessary in the wake of trumpism. We should become a society that actually values human life such that we would feel shame about this.
