Got to the gym and they said my health insurance,
@cignahealthcare.bsky.social
, had canceled my gym membership. They didn't know why. If I leave this company, it will mainly be because of the health insurance.

If someone calls and immediately asks "Is this Hayes?" then I can be almost 100% certain I don't need to continue the call.

Such an amazing singer. For some reason this song came to me over the last few days.

@fifaclubworldcup.bsky.social should definitely move the World Cup from the USA to Canada. If a little league team can't get in then I'm sure they'll go through the roster and exclude anyone that they hallucinate as being unacceptable.

@t-mobile.bsky.social should pull out of sponsoring Little League World Series. It's just racism that limits visas being offered to overseas teams. It makes no sense to be associated with that kind of hatred.

Looking to change alarm companies so got some referrals from the community and Guardian came up with very good references. Put in a request to be contacted for a new system with phone #. I'm in the Seattle area. They called at a bit after 6 AM to discuss it and again at 7 AM. Not a good start!

You gotta love companies like ADT that make you call in to cancel your service. I understand that it gives them an opportunity to try to convince you not to cancel but still if the service was good I wouldn't be calling to cancel.

The fascinating thing about Epstein and his antics is that everyone that was on his plane or on his island knows who else was there but no one is willing to talk because that would be admitting that they were there too.

CLARIFICATION :
The Trevor Project's hotline will still be live. But basically this means LGBTQ people can no longer be connected to it through the US national 988 suicide prevention hotline.
They will need to be contacted DIRECTLY
So spread this around
They can be texted. They can be called.

AI or perhaps someone overseas answered my support question on QuickBooks software. When our conversation was over I noted I'd shred the disk and not work with the company going forward. They thanked me profusely and hoped I had a nice day. :)

LastPass has basically stopped working periodically on almost every device I have. It only works consistently on one of them. Canceled my subscription and looking for a new non-subscription password manager.
