My profile picture on the top left says “54”. Is it that what you’re referring to? And is there a way to change it?

Edit - dang that’s huge.

So this would have no effect on Donald Trump 😄
But according to OOP, bug consumption makes people & turtles sick.


Whoah I just saw this meme elsewhere about 5 minutes ago:

Please don’t make me research what the heck are Hindu Diver Pushups. Please tell us! 🤩
Naw, it IS sweet because Grandpa’s love for Grandma is STRONGER than his hatred for chicken ☺️
Something about your comment makes me feel personally attacked.
I’m getting good enough at this I can see a post and guess who posted it. I was right! Lady butterfly she her 😄


Hi thanks, maybe can you tell me how to do that thing on Signal where the other party doesn’t have our phone number but each person is assigned a code number?


Yes that’s exactly my issue, you got it. Thanks for explaining why this is happening, and suggesting some workarounds, I will look into it.


Thanks! I guess I’m not super duper concerned about privacy, I just don’t like the way Google has infiltrated texting on Android or whatever’s going on with my phone right now, so I will look into your recommendation.


Thank you. For the last couple of months every time I open my native messaging app that I’ve been using for years, it gave me a warning that starting July 6th Google would be taking over the SMS on our phones. And sure enough, today in the middle of an important texting conversation with a company I order medication from, Google intercepted it and tried to force me to agree to all their terms and take over my SMS functions. I refused to click on any of their agreement terms, I rebooted my phone, And switched to email with my medication company. But now I have lost texting capabilities until I come up with an alternative. Yeah for the last couple months I’ve been trying to get signal to work but couldn’t figure it out & forgot about it, but now today is the day of reckoning. I need SMS capabilities restored.
Would it not be reasonable to assume that his attachment to the elephant plushie is a symptom of his inattentiveness & distractability?


Thank you. This is valuable information.


Would you happen to know of any alternative SMS apps that Google will not infiltrate on my android phone?


Sorry, the military recruiter didn’t mention any of that to young me. He mentioned college money, travel, and adventure.
Old me knows better now, and looks forward to humans evolving beyond the need for wars and militaries.


Every human who has a body and a job, is selling their body.
I joined the army at age 18 thinking of nothing but college money, travel, and adventure for pay. I got all of that. Of course knowing what I know now about how corrupt & evil every government & corporation is, I’d rather have not been born on this planet at all because I want no association with anything evil or corrupt, but here we are all born on earth and figuring out what to do with our lives and how to survive the best we can with what information we’ve been provided at any given moment.
Waaaait a minute, I just posted this on a different instance, I thought up that title with my own brain & typed it with my own thumbs, and got 3 likes and zero comments 🤔 https://beehaw.org/post/27275820
