At a place I worked many years ago I left because I was moving. I still had remote access to the cameras until they upgraded the system.

It’s happened twice to me, I’m now 41. I was able to get it resolved both times but it was not easy and in the first case seriously hurt my credit score for seven years.

When you die your social is reused and assigned to someone else eventually.

This is not true, but often repeated. From SSA

This has happened many times. In the last city I lived in, a man went in to have a leg amputated and they got the wrong one, so he ended up with zero legs.

At one point in the campaign JD Vance suggested that people with children should get more votes than childfree people. I’m certain he, and many others, would be down for that.

Banks and nations. Saudi Arabia was a big contributor. I wonder why a theocratic dictatorship would want influence over a worldwide free speech platform?

That’s so fucking clever, I love it.

Around 2006, a woman was able to start an account with the local power company with my SSN and name. She said she was my girlfriend and was setting it up for me. I know this because the person setting up the account made a note of it at the time. She ran it up over $300 and then let them close it. I didn’t find out about it until a few years later when I had to set up electric in my name (lived with roommates from 2002 until like 2016). They told me they wouldn’t start a new account until I paid what I owed.

I don’t think this is possible anymore, but even at the time it’s unbelievable that it was allowed.

Haha yeah I was laughing at that and explained it to my wife. I just really enjoyed it, I don’t know what to say.

It’s true. We are wired to care about like 150 people max.

I wish all these positivity power people who are blessed to be mentally healthy could spend one day inside my ADHD, severely mentally ill brain. They would understand so quickly.

Did you just watch it or did you engage your brain? At surface level it’s not even that bad, but as a movie about trying to deal with mental illness it excels.

A lot of the “why did they do that” is explained by not having access to the Silmarillion. They only have the appendices from LOTR. For such crippling limitation I think they’re doing a great job. I’m a lifelong LOTR-Silmarillion superfan, I say fuck the Tolkien estate.

They couldn’t get the rights to the Silmarillion sadly. The only canon resources they’re allowed to use are the appendices at the end of LOTR. I think they’re doing a fantastic job with such limited material. The last two episodes are awesome.

Yep. If I couldn’t get it done during another class it wasn’t getting done.

Yeah. I used to do it for free. My wife does it for free. It’s shameful.

What we are

Wow. That’s a take. Thanks for responding in depth, I certainly learned something from our interaction today.

I agree with most of what you say, but you’re really talking up Putin, who is worse than Trump so far. How do you believe the Ukraine war should be resolved?
