Yes, I read it. What's your problem with it, other than the whole premise? :)

Hey everyone! I want to introduce you to my incredible friend Lauren. She’s absolutely amazing and currently looking to meet someone great. If you know someone great (or *are* someone great), let me know! 💕 Let’s create a Valentine’s story for the ages :) www.facebook.com/share/p/1ajm...

That's happened to me too before. Once one of my front tooth veneers popped off on December 23rd, and I called my Dentist panicking and she came in on Christmas Eve(!!!) to temp it back on. It held until we could get it fully fixed two weeks later. She's a saint.

As the Real ID deadline approaches, I want to thank the awesome TSA agent who let me through security with my Costco Card when my wallet went missing on a business trip. It had my name, picture, and signature, so they let it slide. (That wasn't long after TSA was created, though - so simpler times.)

That's amazing! So wonderful to hear about it! Maybe you'd be interested in attending a Government workshop my team has coming up next month in the bay area on sUAS swarming?

What's the point of airport reserve if the drivers just cancel?

010

Heather Wilde Renze @heathriel.bsky.social · 22/12/2023

And it didn't give me a new reservation, it just cancelled everything, and now it's surge prices.

Heather Wilde Renze @heathriel.bsky.social · 22/12/2023

@Uber_Support very not cool. Used Uber Airport Reserve for my car for Las Vegas airport tonight — had it reserved with my flight details and as I was walking to the car, the driver cancelled. *5 minutes* after we pulled into the gate. What happened to “we wait for 60 minutes”?

100

Heather Wilde Renze @heathriel.bsky.social · 24/11/2023

She just pulled in someone else to help. I don't think this is going to end well. :( My time in the bank is done though, so I won't be here to see how it turns out.

Over an hour in, and I just heard the word “@coinbase” 😔

“I don't suggest you send money to this person…”

100

Heather Wilde Renze @heathriel.bsky.social · 24/11/2023

It’s been over 45 minutes now — this poor manager cannot seem to convince the customer not to send money to this person. She’s shown him a website where she reverse-searched the phone number and showed its marked “Scam”. “This is a low-trust site”…

100

Heather Wilde Renze @heathriel.bsky.social · 24/11/2023

New twist — the customer says they *have* to send the money or they won’t get their refund. “Refund?!” The plot thickens…

100

Heather Wilde Renze @heathriel.bsky.social · 24/11/2023

I’ve been here 20+ minutes and the customer keeps asking the manager to wire money to the account # in the message. The manager has politely said many times that she doesn’t think this is a good idea, that this person isn’t real, this isn’t a “professional conversation”…

Heather Wilde Renze @heathriel.bsky.social · 24/11/2023

OMG I’m in a bank and I’m overhearing a conversation where the bank manager is trying to explain to someone that they lost their money in a WhatsApp messaging scam. It’s super super sad hearing it…

… had a bunch more wars, lots of countries were created, abolished and merged. We are coming up on 250 years soon — the semiquincentennial. Takensome time to really think about what that means — how far have we come, what have we accomplished, and where are we going.

Heather Wilde Renze @heathriel.bsky.social · 13/11/2023

I was born in the USA’s Bicentennial year. In that year, there were still *Civil War* brides receiving military pensions. In the hundred years since the centennial, we had a whole industrial revolution, two world wars, gained a bunch of states, invented the LIGHT BULB…

I love how every generation things they invented something. "@Netflix and Chill?" People in the old days were like "Opera and Corset."

Heather Wilde Renze @heathriel.bsky.social · 28/10/2023

Anyone else watch the little car on your ride share/delivery app and “backseat drive” the weird decisions? “They’re taking an awfully long time at that light.” “They missed the turn!!!” “Why are they going in circles!!!!”

did it thinking they were only going to get $12 for their trouble. *And* she offered to help walk our 25 bags of food to our room. When she told us, that, she said “$12 for an hour isn’t bad.” !!!! I sincerely hope she does get the full tip we sent!!!!

Heather Wilde Renze @heathriel.bsky.social · 13/10/2023

TIL that the way @Uber Eats dissuades people from tip baiting is by not disclosing tips until after the driver has delivered the food. So my amazing delivery driver last night, who waited a whole hour for our huge team dinner delivery and messaged me updates the whole time …

It occurred to me today that @BLACKPINK’s “In Your Area” is the same as @Pink’s “start a fight”. Someone needs to do a mashup where Pink Starts a Fight in Blackpink’s area. ;)

Thursday, we went to see @OppenheimerFilm followed by @Barbie. Both theaters were packed (to the front row)! I saw at least a dozen people go from our Oppy screening to Barbie. The movies are excellent on their own, but this also feels like a “canon event”. #Barbenheimer

Just thinking about how happy I am to have been a teen when actual mixtapes were a thing, and to have experience the joy and anticipation of having given and received them.

Speaker friends: I’m writing a new *keynote* about pros/cons of AI, but it weirdly has to go into tech depth like it was a breakout. Since I need to make it light/engaging, I was thinking of making it a funny AI Walking Dead, where each section is about how to rebuild the world with AI. Thoughts?

There’s so much going on in this movie that makes it one of the all-time greats. There are multiple story arcs that all have enough development for you to care, and they all weave together with a resolution. Jeff Goldblum is a believable geek, as always. Bill Pullman gives that killer monologue. 👌🏻

@FedExHelp Is this how you’re training your delivery people? Guy doesn’t ring the doorbell, just walks up with the door tag and walks away. I’ve been waiting on this delivery since April!!!

Random question of the day. What was the last movie DVD/Bluray you got mailed from Netflix. Like, In the mail, from their mail service. I'll go: Speed Racer. I still have it. (I wonder what the late fees are on that?)

Although, my two favorite mall memories were getting kissed on the cheek by Davy Jones of @TheMonkees and attending an @UncleFloydRadio live session. Everything a young NYC metro kid could dream of.
