Pretty wild that more people are crushed to death by vending machines every year than are eaten by sharks. I’m terrified of sharks, but have not once looked at a vending machine with anything but excitement.
There are orders of magnitude more possible shufflings of a 52-card deck than there are atoms in Earth.
Another way to look at that is, if you shuffle a card deck thoroughly, it is ridiculously unlikely that anyone has ever seen that particular shuffling.
In old cars the steering wheel column could skewer the driver like a kabob. By 1964, over a million people had died as a result of steering wheel impacts. Ford introduced a car in 1956 with all sorts of safety features, including a collapsable column, but the changes weren’t popular, leading the Automotive News to run the headline “McNamara (Ford’s CEO) is selling safety, but Chevrolet is selling cars”

We still use dead bodies as crash test dummies in NHTSA testing.
…and that every woman I’ve asked so far doesn’t know what they are (myself included until I found out VERY recently from Reddit – someone else also as shocked as me – and hundreds of shocked commenters) like WTF
We are all playing RL monopoly but most of us only get to go around the board and collect our M200 because Doug and Bob co bought the last properties in 1980 and now can charge us just enough for us to make it around the board again. Just so they can take it. Again. Forever. Until death.
Some people go their whole life never hearing “I’m proud of you” — not once — not from their dad, their mum, no one. And they still get up every day and keep going like it’s normal.
Plastic recycling is fake and has never been real.
Oil companies made up the concept in order to ease the public’s tension about environmental concerns rather than cutting back on single use plastics, they lied and told us they could recycle them.
The sheer magnitude of how many people were involved in this lie astounds me. It is such a huge lie that it makes other wacky conspiracy theories seem more plausible.
Governments at every level from multiple countries, manufacturers, waste management, logistics all were in on it. And they were just shipping it to China and dumping it the whole time.
Honestly, this broke me when I found out about it. This just shows that there is no hope.
Vitamin A poisoning kills you by causing all of your skin to fall off, starting at the groin.
There are also people who believe that diseases can be prevented or cured by dosing oneself with massive doses of Vitamin A. These people also believe in easing whooping cough with the Vitamin C “protocol” – namely, ingesting enough Vitamin C for it to function as a laxative.
So, not only do they think you should risk poisoning that will cause the skin to fall off your genitals, they also think that the best treatment for a severe, body-wracking cough is laxatives.
The cruelty inherent in making this shit up for other people to try – mostly on CHILDREN – boggles my mind whenever I think about it too hard.
Anne Frank could have been still alive today. She’d be 96. It seems like ancient history until I realize that I know of others older than she would be.
That black market organ trading actually exists. It sounds so messed up and complicated that you would think it could only be pulled off in some shark jumping B movie. But no, there are ACTUAL people that target, kidnap, butcher the person for their organs, then sell those organs to the highest bidder.
Like I would think if you’re skilled enough to do that kind of complex surgery you wouldn’t need to resort killing people with such brutal efficiency like that. But I guess not
