My mom says I’m very important … so I’ll assume this was a state actor

But yeah, this is most likely. I changed my settings to lock faster with a longer pin

Yeah. Definitely setting that up now haha. They used my phone to call my contacts, so I don’t have their number

Yeah, but the calls were from my phone, so I think they would have to open it

Yeah. They were accessed while the phone was lost

Graphene has and emergency dialer, but you can’t call my contacts from it.

Fingerprint and pin code. They left the phone at a store nearby and I went to pick it up

Yeah. It was clearly good will. Even the banking, they probably didn’t realize the app was banking (foreign bank). Signal was Molly, so they honestly were personally confused since I run KISS Launcher.

The problem is that they used my phone to call my contacts.

Yeah. Honestly, 99% of the time my kid is having a fit, it’s because he’s hungry. I never yell either. Never have and probably never will (barring seriously dangerous things that need to immediately stop).

After a couple months of feeding him when he’s upset, watching him calm down, apologizing if I angered him and then asking him if maybe he was so angry because he was really hungry, now he’ll actually tell me mid-fit that he’s really hungry. Or sleepy, scared, etc. Talking basic needs, not just hunger.

Honestly I’m really happy. The emotional maturity of a toddler that can recognize that in large part his anger is being hungry it’s pretty cool.

I got ads for sexual assault therapy after I talked to my friend about my assault. I was livid. The audacity to try to make money off assault victims.

Use OnlyKey for master passwords

I have a really long password on Bitwarden like 30+. I use OnlyKey to store this password on a hardware device.

You mentioned phones. My problem with using another 2FA app is that it’s still on my phone.

Here. I have lots of energy since the patriarchy can’t fuck me without being gay. Sadly it’s empty

Yeah. I was worried about the fighting against it thing. So far he seems to like speaking English, but just limited. I try to make it really cool that he speaks two languages. We also have a thing where he teaches me the local language and I teach him English, which is true since I’m not native in the local language.

Basically trying to balance pushing and being careful of being overbearing.

Yeah. I’ve tried to press that sometimes I don’t understand when he speaks the local language. It’s true because I used to not understand children in the local language, but I do now 🫣.

Honestly I think I need more non native friends with children.

Yeah. I did this unconsciously just to verify I understood since he’s a toddler. It did seem to help with comprehension. I just can’t get him to speak English 😅

Yeah I’ve been trying to do this. He definitely had this because he gets excited and surprised when people speak to him in English.

Yeah, I’ll do it in like a week

My experience is completely anecdotal, so may not apply. Your toddler is like 2.5 years. I found it hard around that age, but after calmly setting boundaries, explaining why and being open to negotiation, at around 3 it became super easy.

Tantrums for my kid are 99% of the time just because he’s hungry. I just explain this to him during and after the tantrum. Like “so you were really sad before, but after eating you’re happy now right? Do you think that would help next time you are sad?” Now he will sometimes tell me he’s just super hungry when he’s upset.

Other than playing with him which I enjoy, he’s like 70% in auto pilot.

Are you from one of those socialisms that I was told about growing up? I’m so glad you managed to find enough food to survive to adulthood.

“Under the terms of the bill, encrypted messaging apps would be obligated to check users’ messages for child sexual abuse material.”

Good job UK. You broke WhatsApp. Now try Signal or GPG. Oh no. Look. You can’t. Honestly, pure dumbfuckery.

I oppose child sex abuse, but banging your head against a wall will not solve it.
