Word is, a paid @Instagram service will include help when your account is hacked. Lol just kidding. @meta doesn't care. https://t.co/hSK2ket8oP

@reviewjournal How does a truck suddenly reverse on its own??

@SouthwestAir clowns never fail to pull from their magical sleeves countless inventive ways of antagonizing weary travelers #excellencebedamned

@ASpruill24838 @instagram I guess it would not surprise me if a bug was suspending people and intentionally bad design is preventing everyone from asking for help!

[davidicus x @xicus]

It's hard to conceive of how impossible @instagram help is. Account compromised and no way back in. Every link and button loops back, errors"try again later," or does literally nothing, goes nowhere.

@ID_AA_Carmack They wired mine up in the last intuitive order besides. Each switch's light is roughly the one farthest from it. And the lamp outlets are indistinguishable. Been complaining for ages.

[davidicus x @xicus]

Literally cannot find a way to contact @instagram about repairing my account access. Are white-hat hackers and @legalshield really the only options?? How is this inaccessibility even legal?! #stumped

[davidicus x @xicus]

Anyone know what to do when @instagram no longer lets you log in, just blanks and loops back when you follow the "think I've been hacked" link, but still shows up correctly in Facebook as account-linked? #infuriating

Google's new Storybook gem kinda pisses me off with how good it is: https://t.co/tRiPPVC61x

@grrberr Training myself off the nipple was rough, but the newer Yogas ended up letting me down.

@xikxok @kirawontmiss Tipping has crossed the line into parasitic thuggery. Respond in kind.

@cfryant @midjourney Haven't used MJ can you feed it your own video and prompt distortion etc on top?

So, what, 5-10 years before federal deficit is half GDP?

Notably, the long-term debt cycle coincides with the 4th turnings.

I mainly focus on what's happening quantitatively (debt). But keeping in mind the changing social/geopolitical dynamic is a nice accompaniment to that. Old institutions/norms facing entropy, death, rebirth.

@ChrisJBakke Probably not blind. Probably young, cheap, and inexperienced under layers of feckless management.

Translucent UI is usually a bad idea outside of movies and non-critical game interfaces.

The early moments of joy are fleeting, while the usability issues remain. Windows and Mac have both been down this road before, but I guess a new generation of designers needs to learn the lessons anew. Sigh.

@Grubhub_Care sent me a 35% email promo. Spent time setting up an order, then got "promo has expired." Of course, the promo says it's valid until the end of the month. No way to contact, and replying to the promo bounces. #ux sucks, never improves. #dontmakemelaugh #hereforyou

Companies offering hybrid or remote work have seen a 0.6% growth in job listings, while companies that require a full-time office presence have only seen 0.3% growth
