DOOL!!!

Silver Melody is the name and memes are my game ~ general shenanigans ~ ENFJ-A ~ Aspiring writer/musician/artist/voice actress/poet and I didn't even know it. Crazed fangirl in need of friends. Shy and awkward AF. Total frigging dork. If u think I'm awkward to be around in real life, wait till u see this Tumb1r blog...

There's a way to remove it~

Go into the power shell

then paste in:

reg add HKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsCopilot /v "TurnOffWindowsCopilot" /t REG_DWORD /f /d 1

like this

Then restart. Also here is how to turn off the awful search suggestions:

How to Disable Windows Web Search and Speed Up Your PC

Stop the OS from pulling up web results when you just want files and apps.

[venonomnomicon]

incase anyone didnt know there's some great free software to handle disabling windows bloatware without needing to mess with the command line

With the freeware O&O ShutUp10++, unwanted Windows 10 and 11 features can be disabled and the transfer of sensitive personal data onto Micro

O&O AppBuster gives you the control back over your Windows again! Now you decide which apps you want on your computer.

these are a mandatory part of every windows install for me. been using them for years and it's such a lifesaver

[foxofninetales]

Because this has mostly been talked about with Windows 11, heads-up that this installed itself on every Windows 10 computer in our house with this week's update.

genuinely I cannot fathom trying to use Tumblr like any other social media. I just thought to myself “why does Tumblr even have a ‘Best Posts First’ feature? why would I want to see good posts?” and then I had to stop and consider that for a second

[kujakumai]

“Atem gets his own body” AU where he keeps trying to tell archeologists where Punt was and none of them will believe him. Except Ishizu. Ishizu believes him. Atem and Ishizu’s quest to convince academia about the correct location of Punt. 

They get thrown out of at least one (1) conference. Ishizu calling up Atem like “You’ll never believe what someone just said about us in this paper called ‘In Response to Ishtar et. al.’” and he’s like “I don’t know why this is so difficult. I’ve literally BEEN there.” and she’s like “I know, I know.”

[kujakumai]

Things Dr. Ishtar’s research assistants have managed to gather about her weird friend, Atem Muto:

Definitely doesn’t work here. Just…hangs out, sort of.

Apparently Egyptian but raised in Japan or something? Speaks perfect Japanese and Coptic but basically no Arabic. Speaks to Dr. Ishtar in a bizarre amalgam of the former two (Where did Dr. Ishtar learn Japanese?)

Must be some kind of expert because he knows literally everything about ancient Egypt in perfect detail, several details so specific it half feels like he has to have made it up, and is happy to talk about it at any time, sometimes seems to jokingly suggest he lived there.

Except he doesn’t exist on google. Surely a guy who’s done this much research has published a paper somewhere, right? Made some speeches? Listed as a contributor, or as a professor somewhere? But there is nothing. Not even a facebook profile. Man is an internet ghost.

In fact, he barely seems to know how computers work at all. One time someone showed him that you could play solitaire on one of the laptops and not only did he not know this already but was really excited about it.

Did I mention he’s like, 25, max? What? The intern is older.

He is so nice though. Kind of awkward but really encouraging. Like, huge weirdo but when he flies back to Japan to visit family for a few weeks everyone is super bummed. What a cool guy. Cool, weird guy. And what’s with his hair?

[andi-drews]

I: here?

A: no more to the left

I: i see

this is so funny im obsessed

[lethalwizard]

got super tilted at work like last month and remembered that post that was like "whenever you want to get in an internet argument go and write a strongly worded complaint to a politician" and i was like So True and went bitched to adstandards about a youtube ad that had been giving me the shits and i just checked the burner email i gave them and LOL the advertiser was found in breach of code and forced to change their ad

[lethalwizard]

complaining is actually so so fun

[angelbabymikaa]

[assiraphales]

I kind of miss the impulsivity that certain spaces used to allow. oh you want a hair cut today? hairdresser in the corner can fit you in before her 2 o’clock. tattoo of a cobra… sure leg or arm? even concerts, back when you could go to the box office thirty mins before any show. not saying these things don’t exist at all, but everything feels booked five months in advance and 10x more expensive

[teaboot]

Can I be honest with yall I don't want to hear SHIT against cishets at pride this year

[teaboot]

"But it's not FOR them!!!" The biggest military power in the world belongs to a christofascist nation overseen by a felon found guilty of 34 federal crimes and has greenlit a gestapo with more direct funding than the entire military of Canada for the purpose of ethnic cleansing. Let Hetero Jessica throw some biodegradable glitter at a municipal parade

[teaboot]

At this point if anyone is trying to exclude anyone benignly pro-queer from a pro-queer space I'm just going to assume you're a fed or something idk like something something destabilize the movement from within or whatever

[findingfeather]

I am making a VERY big point of the Ally flag in all my pride stuff at work.

Feel awkward about people maybe thinking you’re queer but still want to clearly signal “queers are okay with me”? SURE. LOVE IT. HERE’S YOUR WEIRD FLAG.

Don’t fucking at me about allies right now, they are ALSO actually getting fucking killed over us. Take your puri-gay shitty tent somewhere else mine is great with people’s cishet friends and relatives showing up to have our backs.

(“but what if they -“ shitty behavior is shitty behavior I don’t care if you INVENTED queer sex, if you’re acting like a douche i’ll kick you out. wanna act decent and accept the premises of queer coexistence and freedom, cool, i’m not judging you for feeling ok with the gender title they gave you in the delivery room or being attracted to people with the other standard issue title, grab a pop).

[vaspider]

yep yep yep yep

If you're with us, you're welcome. Sure, sometimes you have to wear the costume before it becomes the clothes, but also, some of the best people at Pride are the slightly confused moms, dads, and siblings who show up whether or not they understand. "Love is love" also means "I don't need to get it to show up for you."

[gnollgirl]

Thing is, too, if you kick people out who came to Pride to support and defend you (and/or because they are also queer), they will eventually stop showing up to support you.

i will try again tomorrow. i will try again and again and again, because that’s all i can really do.

auto immune disorders happen when the immune system ignores regulatory factors and begins attacking healthy bodily tissues, due to what scientists refer to as "sheer love of the game"

[deaddogbrain]

imo the way you feel about groups it's fully socially acceptable to hate (like children or polyamorous people, among others) is the canary in the coal mine for underlying bigoted beliefs. if you're only supportive of marginalized groups when it's cool to do so, probably you don't actually care about marginalized groups, you care about other people thinking you care

[deaddogbrain]

there are 1 trillion people in the notes of this post saying "yeah! i mean i hate kids but they should have rights!" you hate kids? you mean you hate all members of an oppressed group solely for their membership in this group? right. why do you hate them? because they can't take care of themselves and need help? because they don't understand social norms and can be "annoying" and disrespect boundaries as a result? because they can be messy? because they don't understand things in the same way as you do? that's awesome. how do you feel about disabled people btw

*turns my attention inwards* mmmmm. no *turns my attention back outwards* oh god
