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.

I wish this feeling upon everyone who wants to wear a dress, its really the best
this makes me so happy as a fat hairy guy who likes skirts and dresses i never get to see guys like me in dresses it’s always skinny twinks this makes me so happy 🥺🥺
Testing something: who are your favorite canon trans women in fiction?

Fuck I’m at a fencing tournament and literally a minute after I reblogged this my dad told me that he talked to the point people and I’m probably going to win a medal.
BURN BAGEL BURN
OH WHY NOT?
I need to follow up to say I reblogged this last night, and this morning I got some of the best news of my life, like, a life dream come true news thing.
Bagel what are your powers
FUCK, I though it was just another lucky meme but LISTEN. Since a week ago I was waiting a phone call to confirm me if I got a job or not in my university. I reblogged this yesterday’s night “just for fun and because I don’t want any bagel to be mad with me”, and today’s afternoon, while I was losing my time as always, the professor I was supposed to work with called me and asked me for my personal information to start working with her.
THE BAGEL POWERS ARE WAY TOO MUCH FOR THIS WORLD
I GOT A JOB THE DAY AFTER MY QUEUE POSTED THIS THE FIRST TIME AND I JUST REALIZED IT WHEN I SAW IT AGAIN HOLY GOD
The bagel hasn’t let me down yet!
Let’s see what you can do bagel
I need your luck, bagel
….. Bagel?
Bagel.
Roasted bagel
Bagel I need you
Nothing to lose here
Could use some good news 🤞
It's pride month so I'll allow myself to express one opinion on the internet :
There are no "exact color" of pride flags.
I see more and more sites and posts talking about the exact hex codes for the lesbian flag, or the right purple for the ace one, and how it should be more or less saturated and I just want to say: pride flags were meant to be sewn in your kitchen. To be spraypainted and to be recognised.
There are no "exact colors" of pride flags because you should do them with what you have ! Nobody should care if you use a crimson red instead of a cherry red or whatever ! Be free ! wave your colors ! The colors you have !

likes to charge, reblogs to cast
Reblog to give a trans person a fresh and perfectly ripe mango wait huh
It's the wikipedia image??? How big could it be
What
Huh???
can see the pores on that thang
Reblog to give a trans person a shockingly high resolution mango
why are all the actual real human jobs like baker and florist and childcare worker barely paying livable wages but the fake jobs like ai specialist boot licker or marketing campaign dick sucker making six figures
shirt that says I HATE WHEN CHARACTERS WITH UNUSUAL BEHAVIOURS AND MANNERISMS DUE TO NEUROLOGICAL DIFFERENCES GET "CURED" AND BECOME "NORMAL" on the front and "bye" on the back
the ONLY time I'm fine with this is when the character is STILL unusual after whatever event changed them, just in a different way. bonus points if they're upset about the change. EVEN THEN YOU (pointing my fingers around at no one) ARE ON THHHIIINNNNN ICE
"but why do you hate this? isn't it a good end to a character's arc?" my actual physical neurological structure deviates from the norm in ways that CANNOT be "fixed" and I like it when characters are like me and can still have fulfilling story arcs and loving friends [:
this includes characters who say things that don't make sense, have memory issues, behave irrationally, and more. I'm talking about characters who represent a wide range of neurological differences. not just autism or adhd!
hello fellow artists. google has fallen. pinterest/duckduckgo AI filters don't work. do not despair; here is a list i made of places to find reference images without having to sift through piles of worthless garbage. (for future editing convenience i am just linking my blog post on dreamwidth.)
✨ good places to find art reference that are not full of AI trash 🌈
THANK YOU SO MUCH! I have been despairing as it is so hard now to find references and photos of succulents and other things for my designs!! T_T
roald dahl was antisemitic and misogynistic. george orwell was openly homophobic. edgar allan poe married his 13 year old cousin. dr seuss cheated on his wife (and was racist as well as antisemitic!). hp lovecraft was racist as fuck. anyways they’re fucking dead it’s not like you’re enabling their behaviors in the afterlife or something. then again I think they bleed into the books so uh keep an eye out for that
the difference between these old white guys and jk rowling is that the former group is all dead. jk rowling is alive and using your money to oppress trans people
We've all gotten just a bit too comfortable being jerks to strangers on the internet I think
So I've hidden this reply, both because it's obnoxious and because I don't want the person who wrote it being harassed for it, but I need you to understand: I don't know you. We are not friends. This is not fun or cute, we are not sharing a charming joke together. You are just being an asshole.
literally that is what the post is about, I am saying people should be less eager to jump on any chance to be snarky and rude to total strangers on the internet
DID THE JOURNAL FACTORY FUCKING EXPLODE???
you said it yourself: you're looking to vent it LITERALLY ANYWHERE
so vent it somewhere private. or at least not literally aimed AT another person, a total stranger at that
Like, this reblogger sounds so insanely self centered in their reblog. notice how both options focus on how being rude would affect THEM. "B has no consequences for me so it's perfectly fine to do"
(the only reason I didn't show their username in the screenshot is because, given how self victimizing they sound in their reblog, I believe that, if I did show their username, suddenly online stuff wouldn't seem so inconsequential to them and they'd accuse me of sending harrassment their way and putting them in danger)
You said it better than I could. Of all the inane and ridiculous things I've seen in my notes because of this post, "I NEED to say fuck you to strangers or I will literally die" is certainly one of them
watching the documentary on the OceanGate Titan disaster and it's striking how Stockton Rush wanted to emulate Elon Musk and in many ways he did, identifying weight as the core constraint of submarine operations (lifting and hauling the sub around as being the primary expense) and basing the entire concept around making it as light as possible, but then he overrode every engineer who told him in explicit terms that it was going to pancake, and it pancaked.
also quite reminiscent of Richard Branson's space experiments, which did at least have Burt Rutan as a designer, but the same breed of dickhead CEO at the head.
goddamn the Titan had acoustic monitoring sensors and you can literally hear the carbon fiber in the hull cracking louder and louder as they descend on test dives, but the CEO was angry that they were even bothering to monitor it and refused to accept that it was dangerous, and he wasn't just risking other people, he was on the damn thing himself! he was just that deep in denial and unwilling to accept reality.
DISCLAIMER: intense yap session from someone PUTTING THINGS INTO LAYMEN’S TERMS to make it easier for everyone to understand 🙂↕️
As someone who’s Obsessed™️ with this tragically yet sadly predictable story, we’d like to take a moment and yap about how crazy insane the Real Time Acoustic Monitoring System for Carbon Fiber for a DEEP SEA PRESSURE VEHICLE is.
First of all. The fact that Stockton Rush decided to make a DEEP SEA PRESSURE VESSEL out of carbon fiber, a material that is famous for its tensile (pulling) strength NOT pressure (push). Pressure. Which is very much in the DEEP SEA. Where the VEHICLE is going (if we remember correctly, the pressure in the ocean increases by 10 atmospheres of pressure- ie 1 atmosphere of pressure being what the atmospheric pressure is at sea level -for every 10 meters you descend. Space, on the other hand, is between 1 and 0 atmospheres of pressure). The ocean wants to squish you into biological paste so, so, so, so, so very badly.
Everyone and their mother are telling Stockton Rush that using carbon fiber is a Shitass Bad Idea. Not only does logically it make no sense to use (again, good with PULLING not BEING PUSHED, which is what pressure is) but it just hasn’t been tested the way other materials, such as titanium, have been. We know what the failure point of titanium is. We know when Catastrophic Failure happens in titanium. We know how many cycles of fatigue/stress titanium can withstand before Catastrophic Failure happens. When know how titanium behaves Before That Happens.
Carbon fiber?? We don’t know those things about carbon fiber, when it comes to DEEP SEA PRESSURE FATIGUE/STRESS. It’s a material used for PULLING not PUSHING. So it hasn’t even been tested for DEEP SEA PRESSURE. Because it’s not meant for deep sea pressure. And we’re about to show you how very Not meant for DEEP SEA PRESSURE that carbon fiber is.
Here’s a generic chat that gives you an idea of what we mean when we say Titanium Is Predictable. This chart isn’t about titanium specifically, but we can pretend it is. You can look at the colors and understand what the chart is telling you. We can see the curve and what’s a Warning and what’s Bad. The red is Bad. You don’t want to be in the red. The curve of the chart shows that you have time to predict the red before it goes to red.
Here’s an actual chart of titanium under stress, along with a steel and aluminum. Ough wow!! Look at those curves!! You don’t have to know exactly what you’re looking at to see and understand that the curves happen before the lines “flatline”. There’s a predictability before the lines of the chart “go flat”. This means you can understand the integrity of the titanium you’re using, and whether or not it’s safe to use, whether it can be worked on, or if it needs to be retired altogether.
Now let’s look at carbon fiber.
There’s no curve. Carbon fibers works, until suddenly it doesn’t. There’s no prediction for catastrophic failure- it just happens.
AND STOCKTON RUSH IS USING THIS MATERIAL IN AN APPLICATION IT SPECIFICALLY DOESNT WORK WITH (pushing- NOT pulling).
Well. The thing about Stockton Rush is that he’s going to Do What He Wants. So he’s going to build his vessel out of expired carbon fiber. Because it’s cheaper to transport and manufacture (remember, he planned on having a whole fleet of these things). He wanted to spend as little money as possible while making back as much profit as possible.
And Stockton Rush, with his background in aviation (imagine. for a moment. if a NASCAR driver decided to make a commercial airplane, and only used his knowledge of racing cars to do it. because that’s essentially what’s happening here) decided to use a Real Time Acoustic Monitoring System. Because carbon fiber is made up is a bunch of threads of carbon “braided” (for lack of better term) together, when the UNPREDICTABLE- WE ALL SEE THAT CHART. WHERES THE CURVE RUSH- catastrophic failure happens, the threads “snap” apart as they break. So his thinking process is, the Real Time Acoustic Monitoring System would be able to “predict” when the carbon fiber was going to fail catastrophically.
For shits and giggles, here’s applications acoustic monitoring systems are used for:
Please note that DEEP SEA PRESSURE VEHICLES are not on there. Damn near the rest of this IS in planes, however.
And. C’mon. COME ON!!!!! LOOK at that chart!!!! Does it look like predicting the catastrophic failure of the carbon fiber is even going to matter?!? WHEN YOURE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE GOD DAMNED OCEAN?!? Catastrophic failure at the depths the Titanic is at means IMPLOSION. The Real Time Monitoring System is a fart in the wind. It’s Safety Theater (<- you will hear that a LOT when you watch documentaries and the investigation).
Except.
✨ EXCEPT ✨
It actually fucking worked.
The Real Time Monitoring System actually DID work and actually DID predict the catastrophic failure of the carbon fiber before the catastrophic failure even happened.
And this is HUGE.
This is GROUND BREAKING.
This is the INNOVATION that Stockton Rush has had a hard on for since day one.
Except they’re loosing money. And as OP said, Stockton Rush was upset that the carbon fiber had the audacity to snap, crackle and pop at all.
He was so mad in fact that, as we found out during the US Coast Guards’ investigation, Stockton specifically had the graphs plotted for each dive in such a way so that the RTMS’ alert to the carbon fiber’s lack of structural integrity wasn’t readily obvious (instead of the graph showing the curves of stress fatigue, they were plotted to show depth with time).
Anyways. The fact that his crack pipe idea of using an acoustic monitoring system to predict a famously unpredictable material in an application it’s very much NOT used for and it actually WORKED is phenomenal. Unfortunately, Stockton Rush didn’t set out to find a way to make carbon fiber a viable material for deep sea pressure vessels, he set out to be “big swinging dick” like Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos. So he didn’t care, and how he’s dead because of his own hubris.
