This month I can finally leave my extortionate Verizon contract, I'm getting a new SIM card to get service with another ISP, now how can I ensure to keep my previous old phone number that Verizon assigned me 7 years ago?
Dangit I came to Lemmy last night to ask a question about SIM cards and you got me all distracted and made me forget

All I want is everything in the $4 row. I don't want anything else. can I still participate?
He has such rosy cheeks and healthy radiant complexion
Cockroaches deserve to have their kidneys shrunken.
how closely that word resembles RELIGION and I had to do a doubletake,
if this article was categorized under RELIGION, it would be about murder victims speaking from the great beyond.
Aw dangit, you made this hilarious article make sense and almost took the funny away.
Let me try to more articulately guess what OP was trying to say:
Imagine the bank kicking you & your family out of your house, then holding you all prisoner in some other suboptimal surviving situation, feeding you just enough to barely survive, in exchange for your labor, keeping you forever indebted to the bank and working to increase shareholder wealth, but you can't keep any money for yourselves. All value from your labor goes to shareholders while you work until you die, so that shareholders can have sex parties on their yachts.
If strokes are contagious, OP gave us his stroke.
Do you see what the title of this article is implying?? Dead people rarely talk to police but SOMETIMES THEY DO 😳👻
I'm sure the builders were paid extremely well for their troubles, so they can afford the cost of living and they can all buy their own houses.
haha jk I know that's not how the real world works. The people who work the hardest get paid the least and they can barely survive.
Consuming alcohol in undesignated public places is illegal.
Public intoxication is illegal.
Can't afford to lose teachers
Your filthy fingernails are forgiven. It's all in an honest day of hard work.
I'm tired of these places coming up in all my searches because I will never go back to these places again.
... and the only place to emergency park was in a touristy area where all the parking lots require a fee, would that accident-car have to pay for parking there while he's in a crisis?
I have no choice but to work a job for survival although I am in constant pain, my feet, my legs, my back, my shoulders, which is ironic because here I am as your massage therapist so you might assume we're impervious to pain, But no, not only am I your licensed massage therapist but I am first & foremost a Disabled Army Veteran but I have no choice but to work because all my disability benefits are being garnished by the government.
Ideally to heal my pain, I would rest and exercise and do yoga all day which is what I really need to do, but that won't earn me money to survive, and if I don't earn money to survive then I cannot survive. So I have no choice but to work a job, and if I could have any job in the world I wanted, it would be this job, as a licensed massage therapist here in this oceanfront Spa at this exclusive Beach Club that charges members $7,000 to join and $1,000 a month club dues, yes this is an exclusive club and I am grateful you hired me to work here,
I went to school for this, and jumped through so many legal hoops and bureaucratic documentation and licensing and testing in several different states just to have this job, So I'm investing myself into this job because I've already invested so much effort into it, and I don't want to jump through any other hoops for any other job because I'm already exhausted.
although what I really want to do is be a yoga teacher but I tried that and it only pays $25 a week and I cannot survive on $25/week, so I'm sticking with this job as a massage therapist and I'm grateful you hired me because this spa is on the beach and we can literally see the ocean from our windows and front promenade and it is so beautiful. And an employee benefit you offer us is a cafeteria with free food during our breaks and that is amazing. I'm grateful to work here,
but let me be clear that I do not want to work AT ALL and I need to rest and my body is in constant pain and I literally have disability benefits so I shouldn't be working but the government /IRS is garnishing all of my disability benefits because of something stupid my ex-husband did 10 years ago, So I have no choice but to work this job, and if I must work a job, this is the best one. But I am worried I will not be able to keep up and I will be so exhausted that I simply can't do it anymore, and then what? I will die because we need money to survive and if I don't work then I won't have money. And mind you, death from lack of money is not a quick instant painless death. No, it's a slow horrible undignified demise.
I will honestly tell you, along the same vein of preferring to be a yoga teacher if it only paid a living wage because that would be better for my body and my health, I've also thought of being an exotic dancer so I can climb a pole and be upside down and exercise which is what I crave, so much better than standing on these hard floors all day bending over massage clients, Oh it's 3:45 a.m. and my body is still throbbing in pain from the prior day of work, but I chose this vocation as a massage therapist because it is respectable, and guaranteed steady income as long as I can tolerate the pain and keep showing up to work every day,
whereas being an exotic dancer would not be respectable, and also I don't have the personality or the street smarts to be an exotic dancer. I would just like the physicality of it, climbing, stretching, dancing, that's what my body needs to do.
I have to submit a document for employment and they want my passport but my passport photo is 5.49 MB and they say you can't upload anything more than 5 MB. How can I shrink that file on my android phone without paying some service?
Humans need approx 1tsp (or less) of sodium daily as an essential nutrient. I was low on sodium this morning* then spent the day at the beach in the salty ocean air, then within about 30 minutes I wasn't dizzy and nauseous anymore. Did the ocean air provide me sodium somehow?
*(dizzy & nauseous, I know the symptoms well since I often have no sodium in my diet and I've learned this through experience the last 5 years and I have to consciously remember to add sodium to my diet, and if I forget then I have dizziness and nausea)
Reddit wouldn't let me post this for some reason, Maybe because that subreddit r/askadoctor is dead, there have been no posts there for 3 years, so instead of abandoning my attempt at a post, I screenshat it and posting it here on Lemmy.
The slices in the middle are big, and the slices on the end are so small. Why can't they make it a rectangle with equally-sized square slices?
Do I need to log out? then log back in? I don't want to. But if logging out/in is necessary to refresh my filter settings, I will. I searched for a way to log out/ in but I can't find it, but I will look harder if I need to. Let me know, or anything else I need to do to stop seeing Trump posts. Thanks.
When you're lonely, you don't become cripplingly hopeless and withdraw from life? You just contact some friends or easily make new friends and have a good time and carry on with life?
When you're driving your car and everything is fine until you come to a stoplight, you don't suddenly become depressed at the stoplight like I do?
When you wake up every morning, you don't have crippling existential dread? You just get up and go about your day cheerfully, without analyzing the futile meaninglessness of the big picture?
You know we all escaped Reddit for greener pastures. But I have increasingly noticed that greener pastures are not to be found in the Fediverse either.
I undeniably witnessed some vote fuzzing this morning and I feel a bit psychologically violated whenever I notice people or companies or platforms engaging in psychological manipulation.
It does make me feel livid.

>There is no vote fuzzing in Lemmy. The software doesn’t support it. Period.
>I’ve been paying attention to the Lemmy mod tools and Lemmy admin Matrix rooms, and it’s been the subject of major discussion over the past week between one or two users who keep bringing it up and, like, everyone else (including the Lemmy devs) who are all like, “no, not now, not ever.”
>It’s not a thing.
>SO, what could explain what you’re seeing?
>Possible explanations include:
>Vote brigading
>Alt account abuse
>A genuine statistical fluke where there are genuine votes that are producing this bizarre pattern, and hopefully it will subside soon along with your reasonably justified paranoia.
>The solution to all of these possibilities, and possibly others that I did not enumerate here, is to just ignore the problem and move on with your life. Remember: nothing that happens here is really important.
>I really hope this makes you feel better. Because it should.
Goal: the least amount of withholdings possible
