there is something unfair about this. T-Mobile sent me a letter stating that my data, such as my immutable SSN, might be in the hands of malefactors because T-Mobile dropped the ball on something. There’s a 99% chance that nothing will happen, but there’s still that 1% risk of identity theft – when malefactors try to take out credit in your name (it never actually causes real problems, as it’s easy to prove you didn’t borrow anything, but it’s still unpleasant). The only effective protection against this is to enable a Lock on requests to credit bureaus. We have three providers: TransUnion, Equifax, Experian. I haven’t checked the others, but just for TransUnion, it costs almost $25 a month (not just for the block, but the block itself isn’t sold separately). Maybe someone local knows something.

I don’t understand why others mess up, and I have to pay

This pup needs its own Facebook or Instagram. I have no place to store all these videos anymore. In the first one, we let him out in our backyard to run around and go crazy. It’s fenced, safe. He started playing the hunter. No rabbits? A tail and an owner will do.

In the second one, he stared at the ball groggily for a while, deciding whether to kick it or not. He hit a door spring, discovering a new brrrr-sound. He amusingly played with it for a long time – that’s when I ran out of space on my phone.

I wonder, what did the first humans do with their toenails? Okay, you could bite off the ones on your hands since there were no scissors yet, but the toenails? Again, there were no stones or asphalt; they would wear down extremely slowly when rubbing against the ground. Running from predators or chasing them with such nails would certainly be inconvenient. The only reasonable explanation is that relatives, friends, and partners gnawed off each other’s toenails.
