Also I hope everyone knows that Miette was fostered before she was adopted, and her foster mom loved that little kitten so much and always hoped she’d gone to a good home. this tweet got so popular that she recognized Miette and reached out to her current mom, and was able to share previously unseen baby pictures

[darthmelyanna]

You mean, she saw Miette was kicked like the football and did nothing to help put Mother in jail for a thousand years? I am appalled.

rewatching it as an adult i realized that Jamie Mythbusters is not, in fact, constantly bored and slightly pissed, he just has a flat affect and is actually having the time of his life blowing shit up

When I was living with my ex-partner nepeta, they had a phone so old that it couldn't run most apps. This was not a problem !

Until their bank decided they would only do 2FA through their app randomly one day, when they would just send a text before. They found this out because they had just gotten their new debit card, which did not come with the code attached to the letter: they had to log on to their account to see it.

So:

Nepeta's phone is incompatible with their bank's app, which is required for 2FA

They can't buy a new phone online since any online purchase would require 2FA

Any IRL purchases, or withdrawing money, would require knowing the card's code

Learning the card's code requires logging in to their account, which requires 2FA through the app

The way we resolved this is I bought a slightly more modern reconditioned phone online for them, the cheapest option. Which I still very much could not afford because I've always lived the struggler life and at that point in time I was happy if I had more than 50€ on my account, which means that took me well into the red.

So. I had negative money and they couldn't buy things. Some people I knew IRL were nice enough to give me some cash, but all my friends were in some way homeless and/or unemployed because I'm cool like that so that meant our daily food budget was ~50 cents for 2 weeks. For 2 people. We would literally just eat a quarter of a baguette each a day.

Then their phone arrived, they were able to log in, reimbursed me for the price, and all ended well.

But like I'm literally always thinking of that time a bank's 2FA policy forced me in a position where I was starving for 2 weeks.

I've only experienced the more minor worry of moving countries a couple times and not having a phone number for a few weeks but I was surprised at how much I was limited, basically not being able to do anything in an official capacity. Not once have I ever gotten a 2fa request that was the result of a third party trying to access my account. There's a plague of increasing inaccessibility to vital services that first affects people who are homeless, immigrants, the undocumented, children and the poor and it's fucking scary not to have an up to date smartphone/phone number now because you never know what vital service will be unavailable to you.

to add a new type of onion to your current meal.yum profile, navigate to your /users/(yourname)/meals folder and open it. download a deglaze- you can use butr or oyl, both are available on gityum. place your onion file into your /flavors/ folder, and voila!

Thanks in advance
