#Safety rules

Safetyism in the UK:

No, you can't buy melatonin, you need prescription for this because we need to protect you from getting addicted to it.

Also safetyism in the UK:

Teenagers addicted to Tiktok and sex? You can't breathe when outside/ you can't open your windows because it smells weed everywhere? All good, nothing wrong with these kinds of addictions. Just DONT BUY MELATONIN WITHOUT PRESCRIPTION, IT IS DANGEROUS!!!

*In the meantime, me having sleep issues for more than 2 months now, can't find anything useful in the pharmacy and even doctors refuse to prescribe some bloody melatonin, as if I've got a medical history of addictions........*

As Prescribed: Electric scooter, bike accidents are soaring

🫠 Greatful my sisters grew up wearing helmets. There's probably a reason Gen X grew up hearing "Nevermind." My dad thought it wasn't needed as I'd be biking through local residential areas where people were rather friendly and would rush to help others out. When heading to a SF lake for fresh air and getting 4-8mi down, it was a place where you got to recognize all you'd run across on the regular. Helping others out would be the same as my going to the grocery store and strangers checking if I'm ok with carrying a heavy load with me as I'm on my way home 🏡.

"E-scooters, one third of the time that someone presented to the emergency room, they had a head trauma. And the fact that when you see folks riding, not everyone's wearing a helmet, I think there should really be a rallying cry for more helmet use amongst riders," said Dr. Breyer. "A head injury in any age person can really be a devastating long-term problem. And anything we can do to reduce those is important."

Nowadays my siblings are sure to wear their helmets and let the family and partners know what they'll be up to. Back in the day, I actually went snowboarding without a helmet as well as rollerblading and bike riding on trails.

Have I mentioned that I'm decades older than my siblings?

Making ATV Riding Safer: New Ways to Protect Riders and Prevent Accidents

ATVs (All-Terrain Vehicles) are super fun to ride, especially in India where many people love outdoor adventures. But it's important to stay safe, especially when kids are riding ATVs. This blog will talk about how ATV makers are improving safety features to keep riders safe and prevent accidents, especially for kids who want to ride ATV in India.

ATV Bikes in India

In India, lots of people enjoy riding ATVs for fun or for going off-road. ATV makers here are working hard to make sure their bikes can handle tough terrain and keep riders safe.

ATV Bikes for Kids

When it comes to kids riding ATVs, safety is the most important thing. ATV bikes for kids have special features to make sure they can have fun while staying safe. These features include things like speed limits, controls that parents can adjust, and switches that can turn off the ATV from a distance. Kids also need to wear safety gear like helmets, gloves, and pads to protect themselves.

New Safety Features

ATVs now come with cool safety features to keep riders safe:

Roll cages and strong frames: These protect riders if the ATV tips over or crashes.

Seat belts and straps: These keep riders securely in place, especially on bumpy rides.

Materials that absorb impacts: These materials are used in the ATV's body to reduce injuries in accidents.

Stickers and signs: These show important safety tips and rules for riding safely.

Preventing Accidents

Besides safety features, ATV makers are also doing these things to prevent accidents:

Teaching and training: They offer safety classes to teach riders how to ride safely.

Checking the ATV regularly: Regular checks make sure the ATV is working well and safe to ride.

Knowing the terrain: Riders learn about different types of terrain and how to ride safely on each one.

Adults watching kids: Kids should always have an adult watching them when they ride ATVs to avoid accidents.

Conclusion

The owner of ATV Bike India emphasized that while ATVs offer thrilling adventures, prioritizing safety is extremely crucial.. ATV makers are adding new safety features and teaching people how to ride safely. Whether you're a kid or an adult, remember to wear your safety gear and follow the rules for a fun and safe ATV ride!

This whole submarine situation is a grim reminder that safety features are there for SAFETY rather than inconvenience, and that regulations are often written in blood.

The juxtaposition of the company going from "isn't it great that we built such a cost effective submersible without having to deal with clunky equipment or pesky regulations" to "we regret to inform you that 5 passengers including our CEO are sealed inside a death pod with very little chance of rescue" is absolutely haunting but is an outcome that you could have seen coming from miles away unlike the submersible due to a lack of safety features

Rant on fire safety

While absolutely gorgeous, I HATE this trend of "aesthetic candles". This is from a local witch shop, that sells these candles. Look at it! It's an absolute fire hazard. A plastic flower molten into the wax. You should not have plastic anywhere near a candle flame. Look at the glitter. Guess what? ALSO PLASTIC.

At best it's gonna smell horrendous, because molten plastic stinks. But burn enough of these candles and you're likely to give yourself cancer. Yes, you read that right. Do no inhale fumes of molten plastic!

Stop making candles with materials that shouldn't be burnt! ffs

i know tim would most likely already have multiple samples of his own dna while cloning BUT the thought of him just slashing across his palm in order to get his blood... deep enough to leave a scar that will forever remind him of what he did... in a desperate attempt to, if not get kon, but at least get something... like idk. kinda sexy if you ask me

genuinely fucking furious about reactions to Mcbride, especially seeing this shit coming from fellow trans ppl…. like have you lost the fucking plot????

Billy Batson and child safety laws

I'm finally free from my studies for a little bit so I immediately brain-rotted about Billy Batson. I kept thinking back on the Fawcett Freeze and how he and a lot of other people were trapped in the past (I HC the entire town), so when introduced to the modern day world, there would be some confusion.

Not about technology, medicine, or any of that important junk.

But about the kids of that era in the modern world, being so confused about why they can't play their dangerous games anymore. They don't think there's anything wrong about the way they play, but any person from the modern age can see that there's a group of Fawcett kids playing "toss the brick in the air" and complaining that their metal playgrounds got taken away.

Billy: What do you mean we can't play in the streets anymore? Running from the speeding cars were the best part! Average adult: It's not safe! Oh my god that's just plain dangerous, you know!

Billy: Ah, kids these days. Look, sometimes some of us got bruises from having fun, and sometimes we'd get black eyes when we played Duck Duck Goose, but we were fine. No need to worry about it too much, sir.

Average Adult, shocked: H-how do you get a black eye from playing Duck Duck Goose?! How did Fawcett's kids even survive recess back then?

I am just so fundamentally uninterested in the story where Jason is in the wrong and needs to Gain Perspective or whatever. God what a snore. What an absolute waste of my time.

[race-week]

The FIA have also removed the requirement for a driver to first have a road car license before they can apply for a Superlicense.

Regardless of the changing of the age rule, this seems particularly stupid.

No, see, Norris' penalty has been given as a safety thing. They don't want people to go too fast in double yellow flags, the whole point is to discourage them doing that!!

Drivers can and HAVE died when others ignore yellow flags.

Quit your complaining about this, instead point your anger towards the fucking idiots who decided that a double yellow on the straight was sufficient enough for that wingmirror on the track. Should have been a VSC at MINIMUM from the words "wingmirror on the track"
