I regularly used a pay phone to get my mom to pick me up from the skating ring. Really anywhere I was on a given weekend where at 14 I was allowed to roam free until 10 pm.
Age verification?
I've used a rotary-dial phone and had to temper my conversations with friends around the possibility that someone else in the house might pick up the line and just hear the conversation going on.
Or am I burying the lede by not spelling out that this was on a landline?

BY THE TIME YOU COUNT TO MY AGE YOU’D BE OVER 18.

Couldn't agree with this sentiment more.
as a millennial who reads like the flash, i personally think the pivot to video is the beginning of the enshittification of the internet.
if i have to watch one more ten minute video about a problem i could resolve in one with text, i will go ballistic

Got a call from my son in the occupied territory of Minnesota. He said he is been active in the community, including recently joining the local Democratic Farmer Labor caucus. He and his boyfriend are going to be State delegates at the end of the month. I'm so proud yet so nervous for him.

Had a customer ask me over the phone "you were the older man that came and serviced my house, right?"
I just laughed. I guess "old man" officially describes me now.

I don't know if sharing this will work, but Rebmasel is an attorney that does an excellent law podcast and had very interesting TikToks back when I used that site. She has adopted the cutest little cat she named "DUI". It is the most adorable thing ever.

Watching the latest season of "Slow Horses", and this show just really needs more Gary Oldman screen time. Every second of him is just a home run.

We ventured forth to Kroger. All roads here are clear. We did see some snow blowing sideways when we were coming home but still zero accumulations anywhere. We are basically a dry hole surrounded by snow for some reason. The possibility we live on a Hellmouth is high.

Hours after it was supposed to start and no snow. We might still get some, but it is starting to feel like we have been had once again.
Looking at 2-6 inches of snow tomorrow. Send help. We don't do well with snow.

This. For those who never watched or even heard of SCTV, go to YouTube or somewhere and find some episodes. Brilliant writing/acting/comedy. Catherine O'Hara, John Candy, Eugene Levy, Joe Flaherty, so many others.
RIP to Catherine O’Hara. I know most people know her from Home Alone or Schitt’s Creek or the mockumentaries like “Best in Show,” but how she made me and my brother laugh with her characters on SCTV. Godspeed, Margaret Meehan, Parkdale.

Catherine O'Hara!?!? Loved her since the SCTV days. Maybe it is just age, but some of these celebrity deaths just hit like a ton of bricks.
