Here comes Monday, a Holiday Monday.

Whenever a holiday falls on Monday, I felt a bit disoriented. As Sunday goes on, Monday is around the corner; “back to work tomorrow,” so I told myself. But wait, tomorrow is 4th of July, Independence Day in the United States.

I spent the day with some friends talking about nothing. We might do something for the Fourth, so we said. We just don’t know exactly what we’re going to do.

I’m rambling again, aren’t I. Well, see you on the Fourth, figuratively.

Day 2 into the second half of 2022.

It is a 3 day weekend in the United States as July 4th falls on Monday in 2022. That means prolonged fireworks activities in the neighborhood and 3 days of excuses to party.

As usual, those who have pets such as cats and dogs, know what they’re dealing with this time of the year. Continuous loud noises do induce anxiety attacks in humans and animals.

One thing for sure that many Americans didn’t even realize what Independence Day is about, especially when the minority in power are blatantly taking freedom away from the people.

Let’s save the diatribe for the future.

Hope you enjoy your weekend, wherever you are on Earth.

“Nu Megadeath?”

uDiscover Music Store is part of Universal Music Group (UMG), home to many music artists, including Megadeth. Or in this case, Megadeath.

Megadeth’s 2022 release: The Sick, The Dying… And The Dead! is due for release on September 2, 2022.

Welcome to the second half of 2022.

Captain’s log. Stardate 100095.65

Things are getting darker as Summer arrived on the Northern Hemisphere of planet Earth. Who needs the environment as long as corporations and people are getting richer.

Apparently there are people on Earth who like to be more selective with others people’s basic rights. Rule for thee, none for me.!

Anyway, it seems that each day is better than the next, thanks to certain people who prefer alternate realities rather than the one we are living in right now.

Okay, that’s enough rambling for now.

“Hello There”

It took about 4 weeks of waiting and I finally binge-watched “Obi-Wan Kenobi” mini-series on Disney+.

SPOILER ALERT: It took the whole 6 episodes for Obi-Wan to utter his iconic phrase.

Obi-Wan Kenobi, the series, is the proper sequel to 2005 film Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith, also known as Star War The Third Gathers: The Backstroke of the West

Counting from 1999 film Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace, that’s twenty-three year span of Ewan McGregor’s portrayal of Obi -Wan Kenobi. It is bitter sweet and full of memories.

As a fan of Star Wars, Obi-Wan Kenobi series help me cope with the atrocious Sequel Trilogy. Don’t at me.

Um, what are you trying to tell me, Mint Mobile?

As Mint Mobile user, I received an email that says the following in the subject line:

Your 3G device will not be supported after 7/1

Umm, okay. Then in the email:

Your Apple iPhone 13 Pro Max has been identified as a 3G compatible device, but it is not compatible with 5G or 4G LTE bandwidths. Therefore, you will need to upgrade your phone to a 5G or 4G LTE compatible device before July 1, 2022.

Huh? You are really saying that iPhone 13 Pro Max are useless.

Who did your research?

Warnception: Twitter Hellscape, Sensitive Content Edition.

For some reasons, Twitter has added the following to each and every post on @37prime account:

We put a warning on this Tweet because it
might have sensitive content. Appeal this
warning

Twitter
Twitter warning of sensitive content.

I do not get warning at all on my personal Twitter account. I wonder why Twitter suddenly flagged this account. Could it be a mistake or something else such as someone reporting 37prime to Twitter.

I took the screenshot above and posted it on Twitter. Knowing what I knew then, I expected Twitter to automatically put the same warning to the post. Boom there goes the sonic!

Tweet about getting a warning, gets a warning.

I “appealed” to Twitter regarding the warning on the original post and haven’t from them at the time of this post.

So, I took screenshot of the second post and made a tweet about it, expecting the warning to appear.

It’s a Warnception!

Yep, the warning is there. I could keep going on and on and on and on…

By the way, this post will be automatically tweeted, and most likely will get the same warning.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
