@SaltyVeruca thanks

@SaltyVeruca yes, I'm usually the one giving diere warnings to everyone else. One of those lapses because I did have a package set to be delivered yesterday. I did quickly lock down my card and kicked myself.

So I sent a package the other day that was supposed to be delivered yesterday Yesterday, I got a text from USPS saying that there was an issue with the address and a link which did go to the real USPS site. But....the text came from +44 7907 774687 which is UK code.
Yes, I did check the link but not the number before looking into it
Long story short, I tried to do due diligence but not sure if I just did an amateur move 🤷

#37 of the ways #retailsucks: ooh, Sunday off!
Should we go to brunch place finally? Brewery & watch 🏈?
Stay home & watch 🏈?
Farmers market we read about?
Down to city shopping?
Out to country to enjoy nature?
See what fairs are happening?
Won't happen for another 6mo so better choose wisely

Random gifts my parents forgot to pass along, apparently.

Lottery scratch off debate:
Ignoring the usual arguments over lottery odds and whatnot, I've got a stack of scratch off tickets. Is better to buy 10 of one game or to buy various games?
I feel like the odds are better if you buy all the same but someone else thinks we should buy several different ones.

Some mornings, as I'm scrolling Bandcamp and Spotify, idk if I need a mood lifter or if I should just plunge into the deep end of "meh". 😔

@mcfate obviously my little factious comment has gotten lost in translation. 🤷‍♂️ I understand how this all works, just expressing a desire for an adult from outside to step in fix the issues, not making any kind of serious suggestion.

@mcfate that's what I meant, the deal McCarthy cut allowed anyone to call to vacate.

@mcfate It would but they did change the rules to recall the speaker

Shouldn't there be some rules where if this many weeks of disfunction freezes the house from actually doing anything that the Senate steps in and appoints the speaker

Watching the news and all the "pundits" discussing the fact that the Repubs are not able to rally together & vote as a team but no one is asking why the Repubs can't find a Speaker that has no baggage.

@Vikky lol...as usual, Sunday so he was off enjoying the rest of the afternoon.

Not sure what it means but I've taken to regretting to or new mgr as "chuckledick".
Maybe it because this is how he unstacked a pallet of Xmas merch and I'm out of paper in the photo machine.

war and conflict happens for many reasons but this reason seems to be the one I would think ppl would start to question eventually.

If nothing changes, nothing changes

@Jess yes but in these constant conflicts where all sides are saying they're the special ppl, how many centuries of this battle cry have to echo before you start to say "hey, wait a minute..."

As Will Varley sang:
"Well it doesn't take 'till we're painting caves,
Makin' some men kings and other men slaves,
Sayin' 'god is our reason, god is our leader,
God spoke to me and he told me to kill ya.'"

@Jess oh I don't think a world without religion would be heaven (full irony in play) but I just wonder why the more ppl suffer the more they think their the Ones.
