Damn, that's useful
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.
LOBOTOMIZE YOUR MACHINES
AI is a freacking plague, I share this for any windows user.
It's a lot healthier to go for a daily walk than to sign up for a gym membership you won't be using because you hate that kind of exercise. It's a lot healthier to eat a frozen meal than to skip a meal because you were too tired to cook something healthy. It's a lot healthier to take a quick shower than to procrastinate an elaborate routine for days. Don't aim so high that you won't be hitting anything!
this is actually really helpful and affirming thanks
*in tears* Thanks kitty, I needed this...

b just wear the seatbelt
Mmmmmmm
I gotta naysay here. Seatbelts do a LOT of harm. Not everyone can wear one and not everyone wants to risk it. Just among my own friends and people I know in general; 4 females had a breast cut completely or partially off due to a seat belt. 6 people had their throats cut, to an obviously non-lethal degree. 2 had their stomach’s cut open to a horrifying degree that I won’t elaborate on.
Not even counting the uncomfortably awkward belt locations for particularly large, small, fat, skinny people. Females with large breasts get the joy of holding the belt in place or adjusting it every couple seconds.
They’re awkward, uncomfortable, painful, and can often cause the injuries in an accident. Sometimes it’s just better to forgo the belt.
Those injuries caused by seat belts more than very likely would have been deadly had they not been wearing them. To have enough force to cut skin or cut off a breast in an accident is far more than enough to cause someone to go flying through the windshield of a car, to slam them into the steering column, or through a window resulting in deadly injuries or causing an even bigger accident for other drivers now that your body is in the road along with your crashed car. Are you really going to risk being a smear of ground meat on the pavement because your seat belt was a little uncomfortable or it might cut you? Then I got good news for you, there’s a wide variety of devices made specifically to make seat belts more comfortable and reduce that risk.
These make it so that your seat belt won’t cut your neck, a simple sleeve of padded fabric that velcros around it, meaning you can put it anywhere on the belt.
This one does something similar, by readjusting the positioning of the seat belt to move it farther away from your neck and hey, helps a bit with having boobs in the way.
They even make ones for children too.
Boobs still in the way? While it’s pretty silly looking, this helps keep the seat belt in place so you don’t have to keep adjusting it.
And if you’re overweight, they make seat belt extenders so you can still be safe.
But maybe you’re still unsure, then listen to the CDC and all of their sources.
“More than half of the people killed in car crashes were not restrained at the time of the crash.1 Wearing a seat belt is the most effective way to prevent death and serious injury in a crash.Seat belt use is on the rise. Laws, education, and technology have increased seat belt use from 11% in 19812 to nearly 85% in 20103, saving hundreds of thousands of lives. “
“Most drivers and passengers killed in crashes are unrestrained. 53% of drivers and passengers killed in car crashes in 2009 were not wearing restraints.1Seat belts dramatically reduce risk of death and serious injury. Among drivers and front-seat passengers, seat belts reduce the risk of death by 45%, and cut the risk of serious injury by 50%.4Seat belts prevent drivers and passengers from being ejected during a crash. People not wearing a seat belt are 30 times more likely to be ejected from a vehicle during a crash. More than 3 out of 4 people who are ejected during a fatal crash die from their injuries.5Seat belts save thousands of lives each year, and increasing use would save thousands more. Seat belts saved almost 13,000 lives in 2009. If all drivers and passengers had worn seat belts that year, almost 4,000 more people would be alive today”
Or this one
“ The number of those who escaped injury [by wearing a seat belt] increased by 40% and those with mild and moderate injuries decreased by 35% after seatbelt legislation. There was a significant reduction in soft tissue injuries to the head. Only whiplash injuries to the neck showed a significant increase.”
Or this
“ Fifty-five percent of those killed in passenger vehicle occupant crashes in 2008 were not wearing a seat belt…”
“Wearing a seat belt reduces the risk of fatal injury by almost 50%. For children, the risk of fatal injury is reduced by 71% with the use of child safety seats.“
“Of those thrown completely out of a vehicle in a car crash, 75% died. Only one percent of people totally ejected from their cars had on a seat belt during the crash. Over 30% were not wearing seat belts.“
Conclusion? Wear your fucking seat belt. Tell your kids to wear their fucking seat belt. Tell your friends and family to wear their fucking seat belts. Time and time again it’s been proven that you are significantly more likely to survive a crash if you’re wearing one. Most people think they’re uncomfortable, but when you’re in a crash it can save your life. I’d rather be mildly injured than dead.
Wear your seat belt.
2017 and people are still trying to spread the myth that you don’t need to wear a seatbelt.
People really don’t wear a seatbelt????
This reminds me of a story from WW1
When they first introduced Helmets to the troops fighting in trenches the number of head injuries suddenly skyrocketed and people wanted to take the helmets away again.
Until they realized that the reason for this was the fact that most of these head injuries would have been fatal if it wasn’t for the Helmets.
You always need to look at the bigger picture.
Do not forget about survivorship bias. The only reason those people are here to complain about seatbelts is because those seatbelts kept them alive in the first place. Always, ALWAYS wear your seatbelt.
WEAR YOUR DAMNED SEATBELT
It drives me nuts, personally, that all of the adults who insisted that I wear a seatbelt as a child Now as adults refuse to wear seatbelts themselves. Now I have to sit there and play the grown up to people 30 plus years older than me insisting they put their seatbelt on every time I’m the driver. I just took a road trip with my parents, and literally it was every single time we got in the car I had to tell them (My mom in particular, who kept randomly just taking her seatbelt off while we were zooming down I-95 and made a big face every time I told her to put it back on - you’d think after a while she’d figure out that she could not do it secretly, because I have a newer car and the moment a passenger takes their seat belt off while the car is moving it starts screaming at you until the person puts their seatbelt back on).
Why are people like this? Le sigh.
I’ve been in two car accidents where the car I was in was completely totaled. My sum total of injuries was a friction burn in the second accident because my arm was on the rubbery plastic arm rest on the passenger side door.
One involved us skidding on ice, rolling over, and hitting a frozen pond hard enough to crack the ice and start to sink.
The other involved us getting T-boned because a lady blew right through a stop sign at top speed.
In the first one, the only one injured was the family dog, who couldn’t wear a seat belt and was thrown out the back window. My mother, siblings, and I were all wearing seatbelts.
In the second, my mother suffered several broken ribs and brusing to her arm, hip, and neck. Her husband behind her was okay.
We were all wearing seatbelts.
I hate riding in cars and refused to go on school trips as a small child because the school buses didn’t have seatbelts.
Had somebody NOT been wearing a seatbelt during the first crash, they would’ve been thrown against the ceiling and the side windows.
Had my mother not been wearing a seatbelt during the second crash, she would’ve been thrown across the car and into me.
Had her husband not been wearing a seatbelt during the second crash he would’ve been thrown across the car and into the window.
Seatbelts are not just for your protection. They’re there for the protection of other people in the car and in the environment around you so that you don’t become a couple dozen pounds worth of high velocity meat missile.
For anyone who’s thinking, “But what if I have the kind of accident where I have to get out of the car, and my seatbelt gets stuck?”
That is why I have one of these attached to my rearview mirror:
It’s called a Resqme, a combination window-breaker and seatbelt-cutter.
I haven’t had to use it, but apparently it does work:
(Apparently it might not work on the laminated glass of a Tesla car, but that is yet another reason not to have a Tesla.)
“In the first one, the only one injured was the family dog, who couldn’t wear a seat belt and was thrown out the back window. My mother, siblings, and I were all wearing seatbelts.”
When I was going in to the hospital for one of my pre surgery appointments, I shared an elevator with a guy in a motorized wheelchair with a massive neck brace who made a point of telling us to wear seatbelts. He had stopped while driving home to talk to a friend, and then decided he didn’t need to put his seatbelt back on for the last two blocks to his house. He got hit by a drunk driver and broke his spine when he was thrown out of his seat. Docs said it probably would have only been pulled muscles and bruises if he’d had his seatbelt on. Wear your damn seatbelts.

Joy and whimsy… questionable? This post may or may not be joyful and whimsical.
There’s actually a few things here that majorly dropped childhood mortality. In no particular order these include…
Vaccines (yay!)
Pasteurization
Implementing and enforcing food quality and sanitation standards. Did you know White Castle was called as such because their gimmic was that they continually cleaned and bleached their stores inside and out to prevent food poisoning.
The invention of antibiotics! The first sulfa drugs dropped in the 1930s-40s
Widespread access and distribution of enriched food products! Enriched flour did a lot to prevent malnutrition, and it’s how Wonderbread got its name!
We got a hell of a lot better with medical care for sick and premature infants. The first incubators for premature babies were actually used as something of a sideshow attraction at Coney Island! It was the only way the doctor who invented them could get funding to keep them running because no one thought it would work. It showed a lot of people that really premature babies could survive with the right treatment and eventually was adopted by hospitals.
The green revolution in agriculture that prevented around a billion people from starving to death
More recently it’s been widespread access to mosquito nets and medication to poorer and rural areas
Holy shit that's so cool

WHAT A MOOD
Whistleblower on Reddit rage-blogs about how the food delivery company he worked for as a developer is ripping customers AND drivers off.
Main post screenshotted here in case it gets yanked; the whole thread is worth a read.
Posted January 2026.
One thing I've noticed recently is that people treat RSVPing for a party or event as a suggestion and not a commitment.
I had a little party today and literally half the people who had RSVPed yes just no-showed without saying anything.
It ended up being a delightful event with some of my favorite people and I had a really good time, but I can't help but feel a bit hurt by my friends who said they would come and just...didn't.
Even beyond my feelings, I had put a LOT of work into preparation, so there was way too much food.
If you say you're going to an event, especially a smaller one, at least tell the host if plans change. Like, no one is forcing you at gunpoint to go to a party, but it's super rude to just ghost your friends and usually significant work has gone into putting together the event.
Also like, part of the reason you RSVP is so the host knows how many people to accommodate for something (i.e how much food to get). By no-showing in advance you are making them waste money, cause they'll be spending it on thing that will go to waste b/c the person they were allotted to didn't show up.
Which is rude as hell.
And the reverse is also why you SHOULD say if you're coming and not show up randomly without warning, if they haven't planned for your attendance there won't be enough stuff for you(like food.
The wanting to know who's coming isn't just, because the want to know. They want to know so they can accommodate the right amount of people.

Santa Dance
@isuggestlandback
For people afraid this is AI (and those in the comments saying this is a Viking santa??? (as a Norwegian I'm judging the fuck out of you) ):
PowWow Santa is real and he's from Maskwacis, Alberta, Canada.
writing tip: searching "[place of origin]ish names" will get you a lot of stuff and nonsense made up by baby bloggers.
searching "[place] census [year]" will get you lists of real names of real people who lived in that place.
I feel like I'm constantly shilling for them but BehindTheName.com, the only baby name site that doesn't feel like it's run by mommy bloggers, includes census-based graphs for dozens of countries/regions (though not all of them go back very far yet)
And you can expand them to see rank, number of babies, and percentage of babies and add a second name to compare. (in 1973 four percent of babies were named Jennifer! 1 in 25!!!)
Also this. Cursed.
@homoqueerjewhobbit what name did you search for your example, and what's going on with Moldova?
Those are the graphs for Samuel. They only have 1 year's data for Moldova right now, so that's why it's a straight line. Similarly, they only have 2 years for Mexico right now. The US goes back to 1880. I'm not sure how much of that is publicly available/translated records and how much of it is that it's like 1 or 2 guys maintaining a website of 27000 names and a finite amount of time to format and upload.
Here's the list of all of the countries/regions they have popularity statistics for if you want to nerd out on it!
You can't advertise BehindTheName for writers without mentioning the advanced search! You can search names based on cultural origin and usage, gender (including unisex), meaning, and even things like meter and number of syllables, or famous namesakes (you can also see a list of famous namesakes on every name's page, along with meaning, history, related names, alternate spellings in different languages, the above popularity graphs, and more).
I wouldn't even call BehindTheName a baby name site. They have a surname sister site and a random name generator with tons of variables to set that is very clearly intended to be used for fictional characters (iirc it can even generate a cause of death? I haven't looked at it in many years so it might have changed but these things predate generative AI so unless it's been forcefully enshittified it shouldn't be slop). Like, you can use it for baby names, but the website isn't explicitly intended for that purpose. This website caters to us.
