There are filter apps you can put on your phone to help identify them since they're usually calling voip. I know the FCC is trying to ban spoofing and you can report spoofing on their website

But do they have a Pinkberry there??? I'm guessing they dont...

Hmm... not so impressive sounding now, is it?

I had never heard of Michaelmas before! I'll never look at blackberries the same way again now!

When the scammers spoof numbers they usually just get a block of random numbers that are local to where they are calling, then they just try them one at a time. They pick numbers that look local because people are more likely to answer.

They never actually bother verifying whose number they're using though, so it frequently results in them calling from the persons own number who they are trying to scam, local businesses, and even local government numbers.

I work for the phone company and I've frequently gotten calls from people telling me someone just called them from their own number lol

If I don't know who it is then I'm not answering shit. I don't even bother looking up the numbers anymore because they all come from spoofed caller IDs now, and if you answer you'll get 1000 more scam calls immediately because now they know you're dumb enough to pick up

You mean cozying up to human traffickers and literal Nazis and limiting people to reading a handful of tweets per day didn't convince advertisers to invest??? Who could have imagined that?

Boiling hot oceans sounds like some old testament biblical shit

That seems like it's entirely based on "technology" being used exactly as it is now and not progressing further for 1000 years. I doubt that 1000 years from now we'll still be hunched over keyboards or staring at smartphones. Also I can't imagine a population that can't even come to a consensus on vaccines being ok with injecting nanobots.

I think this AI is basing it's "prediction" on art pieces it found on Google and several bad Sci Fi movies

I don't believe he's going to sleep as well as he thinks. If he dresses up like that he's liable to be visited by three spirits during the night who will teach him the true meaning of Christmas.

The fact that it's currently July would make it all the more unsettling

I'm working on some new pieces now so hopefully I'll have something else to post soon!
