iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

I’m sitting next to the creek in my backyard and a caddis hatch just started…and I’m just enjoying it, too lazy to go up the house and get my 3 wt.

She was great in “Grand Prix” paired wth Yves Montand.

You’ve got all that prep, but I’m good for the ‘scope 6 hours after a milk shake with whipped cream. Thanks lactose!

Buffy TVS. First two seasons worked, but…it went for lots more.

Narrator: neither were correct.

Fuck this guy, who is clearly an amoral, lying POS with eyeliner tattoos.

Tomorrow is 28 days to the midterms, while one of the best plague apocalypse movies is “28 Days.” I have so many questions, including do I need to stock up on canned goods?

Ken Jennings: “Yes, voter fraud. Considered a crisis without evidence. And your next category?” Contestant Stephen Miller: “I’ll take ‘Never Waste a Crisis’ for $400, Alex. Jennings: “In 2026, President Trump canceled a national election citing this crisis.” Miller: “What is the Russian Plague?

Never check the facts, never worry.

It’s not the color that bothers me. It’s the pedestrian who will be killed in a crosswalk…because of the common SUV profile that guarantees terrible visibility and driver distraction.

It’s just another corruption Monday.

Watching the F1 race yesterday, as three men in the commentary booth argued about the correct strategy on stopping under a VSC, the actual former F1 strategist, Ruth Buscombe, ensconced on the pit wall, wasn't invited to the conversation...bad call F1-TV broadcast team. #F1

The collective ignorance of MAGA, a cult that mindlessly repeats whatever they've been told by liars—and knows no actual history.

And Thomas Bros. would add streets and connections that didn’t really exist to catch people copying their maps.

I’m 74…for context, not dunking.

Fun story about digital directions for cars. They were first developed in Japan because Tokyo street addresses were assigned by date of construction, not a rational system.

I lived and reported in LA, and carried TWO big Thomas Brothers map books, about 8x10 horizontal, a couple hundred pages each, one for LA County, one for the OC.

I’ve been a Mizzou fan and alum since dirt was new, and that was the best Homecoming football ever.

And the Beartooth Highway in Montana.

And I like your videos, to be clear.

Agreed. And I always liked the folks from the various manufacturers, but I sometimes wondered if the junket system really worked for them. I used to love “Run to the Sun” and found that format with multiple companies a little more free, unscripted and useful, as a print guy.

Last car launch junket I did was for the launch of the new Fiat 124. The hotel was lovely, the food was great, but it was still a rebadged Miata made in Japan with different trim. Fiata. Maybe the companies should spend more on innovation rather than cookies. 😂

Pretty clear to me there’s a very good case against this man for mass murder, and I’m saying that in as measured a fashion as I can. He’s order the killing of 234 people under no plausible war or legal justification. I am skeptical he will ever face legal accountability for til his but he should.

Do it! We have failed spectacularly.

It’s time for a general strike!

Mark Wigginton @wigg52.bsky.social · 23/09/2026

We are the solution, which is why it is scary.

My bad. Privately equity, not venture capital. In my weak defense, it’s hard sometimes to tell the tiger from the panther as it rips off your face.

Mark Wigginton @wigg52.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

Yup, it’s venture capital at its finest. Leverage the purchase of as many clinics as you can find, then drive up the prices as you take out value. See also: one company owns BOTH major fire truck mfgs, and drove up parts prices to the point LA only had half its equipment working for Palisades fire.

This! I don’t change a lightbulb with checking YouTube, just in case there’s a smarter way than spinning the lamp.

I was about to buy my daughter a horse when a national level sports car racer told me, “I’ve shown horses and raced cars. Buy your daughter a race car. It’s cheaper.”
