omg FRENCH ONION SOUP EVERYDAY

bribe (sorry, i mean lobby) politicians to vote in interest of humanity. Environmental protection, public healthcare, solve the housing crisis/homeless epidemic, increase education budget spending, etc.

Very well known scam. Some details that give it away:

(1) They used a url shortener that doesn’t let you see the actual domain. (bit.ly)

(2) Website domain is not legitimate.

USPS’s website is usps.com. If the URL doesn’t end in usps.com (meaning usps.fakewebsite.com is still fake) then it’s not legitimate.

(3) Tone: The USPS doesn’t text you like you’re their friend.

(4) The number they’re texting you from is not an SMS short code number (usually 5 digits). Instead you’re getting a text from a 10 digit number with an area code, which means it’s a person/individual rather than an application or service.

No… that’s the scammer’s phone number…

Thank you for providing a bigger picture

I am a full-time software developer and everytime I need to merge or rebase, I Google the commands… just in case

Thanks, I guess part of being an adult is just being more and more indifferent to the gradual decline of the world so that the crippling dread does not consume you.

Explains why my parents are still asking for grandkids.

Same. I was a dedicated user of Boost for Reddit (before the API Armageddon) and the only reason why I’m using Lemmy now is because they made an app for Lemmy (which I’m currently using).

Boost is such an amazing app and made Reddit tolerable

what does this reference

Business setting - always yes

Casual setting - only if I’m trying to be oddly formal for the sake of making her laugh

Otherwise I usually just introduce myself to her, make small talk, exchange socials if she’s cool. Nothing more than that.

Don’t inverter microwaves solve this problem?

thanks for putting the effort to find the original artist!
