Open computer settings

Click on Accessibility on the left-hand menu

Scroll down the Accessibility menu and click on the Keyboard Option

Under the "related settings" tab, click "Typing" which should have a description of "spellcheck, autocorrect, text suggestions."

Turn off the AI "correct misspelled words"

and most importantly: turn off Typing Insights.

[ID: a screenshot of the above mentioned Windows 11 settings, showing that Typing Insights is now turned off, with the following description from Microsoft: "Windows is using artificial intelligence to help you type To help you save time and type efficiently, Windows can learn to suggest words, autocorrect spelling mistakes, and interpret swiped typing. Take a look at the insights below to see up-to-the-minute stats on how Windows has learned to improve typing for you. These stats are stored only on this device and Microsoft does not collect the typing insights data." End ID]

"But Mx. November, it says right there Microsoft doesn't collect the typing insights data!"

I mean, yeah, it says that..... for *now.*

It also only specifies that Microsoft themselves don't collect it, and they wouldn't have made this something that I was automatically, secretly opted in for without my knowledge if they didn't have something to be gained by me not knowing it exists!

I only found this because a cat walked on the keyboard and turned on Filter Keys and while trying to figure out why my keyboard was just making chirping noises instead of typing, I happened to click on "typing insights" by accident.

Fucking Gigan.

"The freedom of giant cyborg chicken things is an insult to me. I'd have them all in zoos. That would be a hell of a zoo."

First of all, in Godzilla vs. Gigan, he was just a poor space dinosaur surgically mutilated and forced to be the mind-controlled slave of alien cockroaches. So no moral culpability there.

And in Godzilla vs. Megalon, the seatopians are pissed that people keep nuclear testing in their oceans, so they send out a giant beetle god (actually kind of feel like these last two movie's kaiju should have been switched, but that's beside the point). And once the beetle gets his ass kicked because he's stupid and drill hands aren't actually that productive, the Seatopians radio the alien cockroaches for help, drawing on some Ancient Atlantean-Blatta Accord that apparently exists in the same continuity as Gojira (1954). And so Gigan comes back to earth. To save the oceans' indigenous people from the ravages of nuclear weaponry. And he's automatically chummy with Megalon, who clearl needs assistance because somethings not all there.

Gigan is an environmentalist hero, and has empathy towards people in need, no matter how aquatic or chitinous. He's like Captain Planet if he locked the fuck in.

"OH, GIGAN IS SADISTIC, HE TORTURES HIS FOES."

Uh, so does Godzilla, all the time. He just toys with motherfuckers.

"OH, GIGAN IS A COWARD, HE ALWAYS RUNS AWAY WHEN HE'S LOSING."

Yeah, it's called a strategic retreat. Gigan is smart enough to know that once you get your HP wrestled down to 10, Godzilla's going to atomic breath you in the face. You're not a dirty coward for not wanting your head to be the next Trinity testing site.

I am become breath, destroyer of latex.

"OH, GIGAN SLOWLY DRAGS PEOPLE INTO HIS BUZZSAW."

Uh, yeah? He had his viscera forcibly ripped out and replaced with a buzzsaw. You expect him not to use it in his kaiju death battles? Excuse me? He lost his duodenum for that. He has to use colostomy bags. He has hooks for hands, the boy cannot wipe, let his use his one goddamn thing without moralizing about it.

(the closest they've come to articulating an actual sin committed by Fauci of late was that he got some things wrong in the early days of a unprecedented global crisis. Which is a crime I guess)
