It likely installed in the background as a hidden ‘app’. No user interaction required.

Bold of you to assume this means they are hiring more workers…

I generally reframe it from a perspective even they think they understand: Money.

Governments want their money. Less Population = Less Taxes for them to take, ergo, no government is trying to lower their population. And do they, the audience, think that the government is willing to have less money?

I don’t think so!

The only thing that can possibly affect your score in that sense is if you ONLY have a loan, no revolving credit, and you pay it off - now you have no credit utilization at all, which potentially could ding you a bit, but not much. That’s also not very common - most people have several credit cards and few loans, if any.

That’s what happens when you have a suicidal death cult trying their damnedest to bring about their version of the end of the world.

Behold, the ‘pill’ D4 die!

It’s what the administration demanded in order to ‘talk to’ Putin about ending the war in Ukraine.

I haven’t been able to play much lately due to work, but I did manage to squeeze in some time to 100% Digseum.

I’ve loved the little genre of 'dig up buried artifacts ’ since it was a mini game back in Pokemon Diamond & Pearl, so it was nice to see again.

This is why they want to label antifa a “Terrorist Organization” despite the fact that anyone not rooting for the Fascist boot on their face would qualify as a ‘member’.

Besides, sequestered migrants will make better slaves stateside when all of our yearly produce starts to rot on the vine…

The last few Amber alerts I’ve gotten required an app Formerly known as Twitter account to get any additional details…

Yeah, I just never have the time to get around to it. I use it plugged into my projector most of the time anyway.

Mine failed a couple of months into owning the 512gb original model. Only holds about a couple of minutes of charge when it isn’t plugged in.
