In my small town, we only had 4g lte, but it was quick. That is until 2 months ago, they 'updated the towers' to give us 5g... except now nothing works. My phone shows 5g but I have zero bars and zero service. When I switch phone to lte, it'll show full bars but has zero service. It often completely drops to SOS mode. It's ridiculous. Several people in town have contacted Verizon and the FCC and Verizon's official response has been, "we are aware that service is not optimal in this area, but we currently have no plans to fix it. If you are unhappy with our coverage, we encourage you to switch providers." It's infuriating. They've "updated" the town's service from LTE to broken 5G/nothing at all and said "yeah what're you gonna do about it, leave if you don't like it" knowing that their tower is the only tower in the area.

I once got banned from some random sub for commenting in r/conservative. I responded to the mods like "tf? I'm a leftist, I'm debating with the conservatives" and got a response from the mod saying "yeah whatever you're wasting your time and you sound like an idiot. Bye."
I don't mind YouTube shorts usually, although my TikTok feed is far better. But last week, my YouTube app started opening to the shorts tab. Infuriating. I'll watch a short if it piques my interest, but that's not what I'm going to YouTube for.
Yeah, my friends mentioned the drug-seeking aspect as well. It just seems ridiculous to write someone off that quickly though.
I'll check out that book. And the doctor already has me doing a sleep test this month due to daytime sleepiness and increased blood pressure, so maybe we'll find something there!
Thanks for the response.
I'll have you know I graduated college magna cum laude. There is literally no way that I misspelled a word.
I'll look into that. Thanks for the info!
Yikes. Well, at least they were caught. I'm sorry you went through that.
Yuck. I'm sorry that happened to you. Were they caught/reported/punished in any way?
oh hi there, beautiful :0
Same. I created my account when I was 14 and I'm 25 now - almost half my life ago. That account contains thoughts I've had for 11 years now. I just can't delete it all like that without somehow archiving it.
I'm the same. My account is 11 years old. I created it when I was 14 - I'm 25 now. I like the ability to read through comments that my teenage self wrote :-)
I had a '93 F150 for a few years. It was a v8 5.8L with an extended bed. Until... I let my friend borrow it and he... redlined it for several miles in first gear, (accidentally put it in 1st gear instead of into drive, and didn't noticed the extremely loud engine and the fact that he couldn't go over 20mph... yes, he is that stupid lmao) until it began smoking and he pulled it into a random driveway. And then as if that weren't bad enough, the genius homeowner popped the hood and hosed down the engine which, if you know anything about cars or metal, was the dumbest thing he could've done. Cracked up the whole thing. ๐ญ
But that thing was a fucking beast man. These new trucks can't even fit a fucking 2x4 or a sheet of OSB in the bed. They are useless.
