This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Does all that and still used WhatsApp lol

I still haven't found a way to make my parents use Signal, so either I stop communicating with them (which is tempting sometimes) or have this compromise

I just don't communicate with anyone that insists on using products that have user agreements I don't agree with. The amount of bullshit user agreements are getting overloaded with makes them dangerous legal contracts that can have serious implications on your rights. Just ask the family whose daughter died at a Disney theme park and when they tried to sue Disney tried to force them to arbitration because their son had tried Disney+

Well evidently you're not in charge of anyone's healthcare: when you have a parent that has to be taken care of, you have to compromise if they're not able to adapt

I'd rather use SMS than sign my rights over to Meta. They can use that if they can use facebook or whatsapp.

You cannot attach medical prescriptions to SMS

Wow. In Canada you cannot get prescription renewals any other way
