iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

It's too bad that, through the miracle of human biology, my mood and sense of existential well-being are 90% dependent on the question "is the weather nice today?"

Little insulting that they only call it this when I'm on the beach, but whatever I guess.

Never has an undercover investigative feature been needed more, and never have I wanted to read one less.

I've seen enough. I know there isn't any election happening right now. I've just seen enough.

Choosing to believe this is a Tony Clifton situation

Personally, I think transplant discourse makes you all sound like Long Islanders.

Sometimes by pure coincidence you're reading a newspaper from 37 years ago, and you're confronted by a reminder that time is a flat circle.

Paramount Bids $10 Billion for Time Inc
A $10-billion bid was launched late Tuesday for Time Inc. by the corporate parent of Paramount Pictures, less than three weeks before Time shareholders are due to vote on a merger with Warner Communications Inc.

I hate to be crass at a moment like this, but do they need applicants for that editorially-independent board of journalists, and is healthcare involved

Not even 12 hours into the new year, and we're already well on our way to a world record for things to atone for.

My heart really goes out to the whole staff at Popverse. Talented journalists all, and you deserve better than this business has to offer.

Good luck to the news, the midterms, and DC Comics.

They have to get the Paramount-Warner deal done before Yom Kippur tonight, because otherwise they've got to roll that sin over to next year, which is a pain.

A short story in two panels by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster.

Panel 1: A topless woman shown tastefully with her arms covering her chest, as though we, the reader, have taken her by surprise.

Panel 2: A wedding day.

Priest: Do you, Philip Marsden, take this woman to be your lawfully wedded wife?
Philip Marsden: I do!
Woman from Panel 1: [No dialogue]

There needs to be a private group chat for people who share all of my specific interests, where I can put all the killer jokes I come up with that would be professionally ruinous if I post them on main.

It's symbolically appropriate that the future owner of Wile E. Coyote will always find a way to keep running over that cliffside.

"First they came for the Murdoch outlets. And I actually spoke up because, I also, was on TV. Didn't really matter, though" is the Martin Niemoller poem we deserve.

Former high school French student here. This is not funny. Frenchmen only post like this when they are in extreme states of existential ennui, a half-smoked pack of Galoises resting forlornly on the table before them.

It's so cool that I'll never work again because all my employers have been devoured by an infinitely expanding clickbait slop farm, like a venture capital Borg.

I like to be polite to strangers.

Mary, it's Sarah. Don't you remember this number? You saved it in my phone yourself last week.

Where do we live, Sarah

Sorry, I just checked the number and realized I entered it incorrectly; I hope I haven't disturbed you.

No problem. Good luck with your scam calls.

I'm sorry to have to conclude this, but giving money and influence to nerds was a catastrophic mistake.
