here's where to find it on windows 10
Ugh, it was in mine. It's off now.
IT GETS WORSE
I had to turn this off, but it's something that allows Windows and anyone using your device to generate text/images.

AI is a freacking plague, I share this for any windows user.
Swarovski can continue to fuck off.
In 2021, Swarovski (the company that makes the very sparkly crystals you see in certain jewelry, on figure-skaters' twinkliest outfits, on red carpet dresses), decided they didn't want the grubby fingers of small-time jewelers, clothing designers and costumers and crafters on their shiny beads and rhinestones anymore. They decided to limit their sales to "luxury" and couture creators, not girls who sell stuff on Etsy. The tenor of their press release on the subject was snide and insulting. Resellers (like your favorite bead shop) would no longer be allowed to carry their product; the average Jane on the street would not be able to purchase them. You could only get them if you had an authorized business agreement that bound you to very strict brand behavior. And those of us who still had good stock of the crystals would no longer be "permitted" to use the brand's name in our listings for sale.
Every bead shop and craft supply place and many, many small clothing makers--wedding shops, prom and dancing dress suppliers, the sort of salt of the Earth mom and pop time machines of shops that are the backbone of the field--scrambled to find something that could replace them. The last of the stock dwindled quickly, all of us grabbing what we could get while there was any chance of it, and then it was gone and we no longer had any access.
I was Big Pissed about it at the time. It was just so goddamn stuck-up, when wholesalers and indie jewelers had made them so much money, when some people I knew--when *I!*--had been brand-loyal for decades. But with no recourse, everyone pivoted fairly quickly, most of us to Preciosa Crystals. Those are Czech, quite sparkly, and considerably less expensive than Swarovski. The faceting method they use is different, but not worse; any differences are hardly noticeable when you're seeing them as a hundred pinpoints of light.
Well, out of nowhere, Swarovski just dropped this: https://www.harmanbeads.com/swarovski-brand-policy-update
"Effective June 1, 2026, Swarovski updated the distribution and brand usage policies introduced in 2021. Businesses may now purchase Swarovski Crystals without signing a Brand Control Agreement, and Authorized Distribution Partners may once again sell Swarovski Crystals to resellers, including bead stores and online retailers. Businesses may also use the Swarovski brand name when following Swarovski’s Proper Use Guidelines. Designers, manufacturers, artists, brands, retailers, and resellers are now eligible to purchase Swarovski Crystals through authorized distribution channels."
They want us back. A lot of the companies who could have kept a brand relationship with them also have swapped to Preciosa, over the last half-decade, in solidarity with indie creators and out of a sour awareness that it could be them, next. And it doesn't hurt that Preciosa was able to expand their line quite a bit now that everyone who wanted sparkle had no choice but to go to them.
And I'm not seeing nearly anyone who intends to return. The feeling is, "Y'all told us to fuck off! Off we fucked! And now, that's what you can do, too!" I'm seeing a lot of "How many of us did you stab in the back?" comments from the people whose money they're hoping to attract.
And personally I'm sitting over here all rubby hands, mean snickering, because they really thought they were going to be able to outclimb the people who actually provided all their profits, and now here they are, hat in hand.
start ID: a simply-drawn comic.
Panel 1: a person coloured in red saying "There are a lot of articles on how to "survive a person with BPD," or "why you should run from a BPD person." So here are a few tips on how to help your friend with BPD, from a person who has BPD and wonderful friends."
Panel 2: The red person saying "Verbal confirmation is very important. It builds trust and heavily decreases a chance of their mental breakdown." "Very" is emphazised.
Panel 3: a graphic of the red person and a colourless person, with the heading "1. Try to state how you feel as much as possible." Three examples of the same situation are given. The first has the colourless person saying "I won't come today." The second shows that what the red person hears is "I won't come today because I'm mad at you. I also have a ton of things that are way better than being around you." The third suggests an alternative, where the colourless person says "I won't come today. We're fine. I'm just too tired, but I'd love to come next time." In response to this, the red person thinks "They're not mad. They still love me."
Panel 4: a graphic of the red person and a colourless person, with the heading "2. Little things matter too." Three examples of the same situation are given. The first has the colourless person saying "My day was okay. Nothing unusual." The second shows that what the red person hears is "My day is none of your business." The third suggests an alternative, where the colourless person says "My day was okay. I walked my dog and went to work." In response to this, the red person thinks "They're comfortable talking to me."
Panel 5: a graphic of the red person and a colourless person, with the heading "3. Your personal space is important. Just... be careful to tell them that none of your personal stuff involves harming them." "Is" is emphasized. Three examples of the same situation are given. The first has the colourless person saying "I don't want to talk about it." The second shows that what the red person hears is "I don't want to talk about it with you." "With you" is emphasized. The third suggests an alternative, where the colourless person says "I don't want to talk about it, but I promise it's not you." In response to this, the red person thinks "They trust me."
Panel 6: "Be understanding. Remember: It might not look like it, but their emotions are intense. They are very real and take over their whole mind and body. They might not let them form sentences, so they won't be able to tell you what upset them until they're calm. Their brain is very sensitive. Just because you didn't mean to hurt them doesn't mean that it doesn't hurt."
Panel 7: "They do not know that you didn't mean to hurt them. Once it happened, in their eyes, you became a "bad" person, so everything they know about you is discarded. A verbal confirmation of your true intentions can help you start to resolve a conflict and regain their trust." The colourless person and the red person are shown hugging after the last sentence.
Panel 8: The red person saying "Everyone is different, so it's best to ask what's the best way to help them, but talking is key."

ESPN so ass at reporting anything not basketball or football that i BARELY RIGHT NOW got the news alert from them about Dylan Larkin requesting a trade ffs this is ridiculous
My sister-in-law (husband’s sister) was supposed to get married this fall but due to some immature/concerning behavior by her fiancé, the wedding and engagement were called off. (I don’t want to be too specific, but there were sudden red flags, followed by his sudden decision that he wanted to postpone the wedding months or years despite the fact that most of it was paid for already).
I explained the delicate situation to my mom, as my sister-in-law is letting the news get out by word-of-mouth from the immediate family rather than an awkward “unsave-the-date”. My mom obviously told my own family.
Apparently my dad was so angry by the behavior of this guy that in the lunchroom at work he made everybody listen to the whole story (censoring names and identifying details) and said “I’m not crazy, right? This guy sucks!” And then reported back to me all his different coworkers that agreed this guy sucks, as well as their variety of ages/genders to indicate widespread consensus.
Organically sourced AITA reddit thread.
I wasn’t sure if my vibes about this post would come across over text but you all picked up exactly what I was putting down.
Ilya in post-game interviews keeps referring to his “wife-in-law” and the media and fans are (naturally) convinced that he’s just confused and doesn’t realise that term makes no sense whatsoever.
This goes on for a while until one reporter is finally brave enough to ask.
“I’m sorry, you keep saying your ‘wife-in-law’, and I feel like someone should tell you that that’s not… a thing? Do you mean your sister-in-law? Mother-in-law?”
Ilya: “No, there is no misunderstanding. My wife-in-law, Jackie. We get drinks every few weeks. She calls me her husband-in-law, I call her my wife-in-law, and our husbands both roll their eyes because that’s just how they are.”
And then he walks off.
actually fucking disgusting that glasses cost any money like if you actually think about it for more than a few seconds it is so unconscionably inhumane. this goes for things like insulin and mobility aids and hearing aids too ofc but fuck man, fucking glasses? the thing you need to fucking see? its genuinely sickening and inhumanly evil that those cost ANYTHING.

does his fine plumage impress you?
Health classes really ought to teach people what the beginning stages of addiction are like because a lot of people don’t realize they’re addicted to something until they’re years deep into it.
One of the most annoying genres of people on the internet are people who act like they believe science is one single monolithic thing. Like, you'll see an article saying something like "scientists studying the movement of tectonic plates", and then in the comments there'll be several smug people saying "smh why are scientists doing this instead of finding a cure for cancer", like. Why would a geologist be doing that.
you will never catch me complaining about an actress on a tv show having an imperfectly concealed pregnancy or a character going on a sudden trip somewhere while her actress is on maternity leave. so many actresses (and women working in any other field) are fired, punished and pressured into making reproductive decisions for their employers' convenience & if i have to try a bit harder to suspend my disbelief then that's absolutely what i'm going to do if it means people are getting to exercise reproductive & bodily autonomy without punishment
Just had to sit through the most ghastly confrontation of my life (and as a spectator too)
has anyone drawn this with Shane & Ilya yet
Op the vision is hilarious, you win
A little continuation....
we've lost the definition of pet peeve and ick. guys a pet peeve is something a little irritating that you personally find SUPER annoying, and an ick is something totally innocuous and not at all wrong that just makes you think someone's unattractive for a moment. neither of these are the same as red flags.
pet peeve: someone chews with their mouth open (a little rude, but not really wrong, and most people wouldn't be that bothered by it but it's super irritating to certain people)
ick: seeing your boyfriend on an escooter (it's really dorky and for a second you're like ew what a dweeb, but he's not doing anything wrong and it's not a dealbreaker)
red flag: anything malicious, dangerous, incompetent, or harmful to other people
I swear, some of you people somehow manage to possess all of the three most unfortunate character traits someone can have: a) kinda stupid, b) obnoxiously contrarian, c) deeply annoying.
stuff you say when you don’t give a fuck about women quite frankly
Hence the not-uncommon adage that the washing machine did even more for women's liberation than the birth control pill
Dishwashers also sanitize dishes! My old UU church, which had a dishwasher but not a commercial one, had to boil the silverware after large events when we ran out of space in the dishwasher--wash by hand, then boil in a pot on the stove. Because otherwise one sick child at Thanksgiving could potentially kill an elderly or disabled member of the church. (My current UU church has a commercial dishwasher.)
Even residential dishwashers use high enough temperatures to kill bacteria and viruses before they can pass between roommates or family members. They also sterilize food containers, extending the time you can keep meal-prep or leftover items in the refrigerator.
So...you have a device that saves time, water, energy, food waste, and lives, but you refuse to use it because it's "lazy"?
