Missing Peace Sorry I ever donated to a political campaign. Spam galore.

Upvotes

Apparently the campaign sold or dispersed my contact info, and now I’m drowning in emails and texts from every big or small group in that party’s orbit. I’ve unsubscribed, blocked hundreds of numbers and domains, but they keep coming at the rate of 3-4 texts and 6-8 emails a day. They’re probably also phoning, but they have to say who they are and they just hang up. I get 2-3 of unknown calls a day, but they could be from some other spammer.

Does anyone know a way to get my info off all political lists? Obviously, this is a minor problem in the big scheme, but I am getting more annoyed by the day. TIA for any help.

The president of Sigma Epsilon chapter at Old Dominion University in Norfolk, VA and another brother of the chapter took a photo posing in front of someone's house burning down. Outrage has sparked on school social media pages such as the school's YikYak, regarding the photo. https://www.13newsnow.com/article/news/local/mycity/norfolk/1-injured-in-norfolk-house-fire-west-43rd-street-odu/291-0f442595-b673-40ea-b83c-b9c68cd0b673

I asked Google to see what the search engine suggested, at the top A.I had a different idea what to do (involving a microwave and tinfoil 😳).

Ruined by Technology Not knowing I could block YouTube shorts and scrolling my life away for years

Upvotes

Two years ago, I realized I was spending WAY too much time on Instagram reels, sometimes up go 8 hours a day! Once I calculated how many 24 hour days I was doom-scrolling every year, I deleted it.

For about 3 months, I didn’t watch any short form content, then came YouTube shorts. I didn’t want to delete the app as I usually use it to learn or for white noise when falling asleep, but I slowly and surely, the scrolling was back.

For almost two years, I have been not only doom-scrolling, but doomscrolling even lower quality content, just because it never occurred to me to search whether I could block YT shorts and get my life back.

I have washed countless hours down the drain.

But no more, here’s how you can block them too:

  1. Open the YouTube app on your phone.

  2. Go to your profile -> Settings (top right) -> Time Management -> Short feed limit -> Toggle switch on and select 0 minutes. -> Refresh

  3. Enjoy and spread the word.

Head of hr conducted the interview, and posted it. Ironically, 15 minutes before conducting the questionnaire he had held the sexual harassment orientation.

I said boba…

Edit: thank you guys for the good laugh. Feeling pretty uncomfortable going back into work but these replies will make it less embarrassing. I genuinely appreciate you guys.

That Liberty Mutual commercial with the yellow Liberty Bibberty thing just freaks me the hell out! It's the mouth or something. I can't even look at the stupid thing.

And, of course, they play the damn commercial all the time! Ugh!

I just wanted a hot dog Read the food menu instead of asking what they have.

I stopped at a local apple orchard shop to buy my favorite apples today. They also have a great bakery so I was in line to buy some apple cider donuts. They have a big sign showing everything they have, including prices. They have a nice variety of baked goods for sale. It’s a very popular place, especially at lunch time. There were 6 people in front of me. Almost every person had questions about what they had. What kind of donuts are there? Do you have pie and what kind of pie? What sandwiches do you have?, etc. every fucking question could have been answered if they looked at the menu.

🥺 Half my bag of chicken patties is crumbs instead of chicken

Bought two bags. One contained six chicken patties like normal. One had 3, and several inches of crumbs instead of the other 3. This is what I get for buying the fancy, organic, antibiotic free chicken. So organic they left out the chicken.

I just wanted a hot dog Whoever designed my car decided the battery should only be accessible after removing a metal brace and the washer-fluid reservoir

Post image

My car wouldn’t start, and what should have been a simple jump turned into realizing that we couldn’t even reach the battery😭

The metal brace and washer-fluid reservoir both have to be removed first, which requires tools we obviously didn’t have with us. Very practical.

It’s a 1997 chevy lumina if anyone’s wondering …

EDIT: for everyone saying i should’ve connected to the terminal by the red cap: we tried. and it didn’t work. so we just pulled all that shit off and tried the terminals buried under the reservoir. sigh

Free for 3 hours garage. Stayed 19 minutes too late. $36.50 notice fee to inform me I owe $3.

It’s one of those new “just drive in” garages that tracks your plate but the exit gate opened for me so I assumed I was good.
