Bad news good news

Post by mivanqua »

Bad news someone stole my phone and changed my Google password so I can't get into anything I don't remember the password for.

Good news 1. I had to get a new phone.

2. I remember my Doublem password so I can.
come back! I have really missed you guys.

3. I got ants in my pants and I need to dance.





Now I have to catch up on all of the scuttlebutt and check out all of rhe cool kratom I missed on the Trading Post. :(

Love you guys and happy holidays, whichever holidays you may be a party to.

M, I have to wait 48 hours before they send me a link to recover my account and until then, they can change all of my passwords and be general assholes online, but I don't have any credit cards so they got a busted up phone that is now turned off.


Love

If this isn't typical Mercury Retrograde shenanigans, I don't know what is.

Sorry to hear about your troubles :(

Given how trackable most modern phones are AND how impossible most are for someone else to use (my wife can't even use mine, as it uses my face to unlock) why is someone even bothering to steal a phone? Seems kind of pointless (then again, thieves are not the brightest of people - there are ALL kinds of ways of making a living that are far easier, including scamming if someone just has a black heart and doesn't want honest work).

But sorry for your loss - and glad you're back.

Merry Christmas Mivanqua!

I'm so sorry someone stole your phone. What a shitty way to end the year! I've had my info stolen online before and it's pretty scary.

I hope everything else is going good for you and you and your daughter will have a lovely holiday!

Mercury Retrograde should be my middle name. Thanks, hippie, it's super awesome to be back.

Thanks MMR, I hope the same for you and happy holidays to you as well.

And who knows if they shut off the passwords, but hopefully. I THINK I suspended my Google account, but if not, they could be busy deleting everything. But they need NO info to change my password that's been the same since the 90s. Apparently this is "for us..."

You can't get a human for anything and they don't care if it's spotty at best.

Thanks buddy and I'll get over it. Just another thing in a giant sea of "things."

Happy holidays to you and the wife.

Hope you get shipshape and back to sailing in a minute.
