I received a text this fine a.m. from someone purporting to be Trump. It might well have been some sort of political garbage from him, who knows these days.
It started out:
THIS IS PRESIDENT TRUMP
I need to ask David something personal.
Will you stand with me if…
Then it had a link.
Well, obviously I did not click the link. Instead I went to the menu and selected “Report as Spam and Block”.
Doing so gave me much more pleasure than any effect my reporting and blocking the Enshittificator-in-chief might have on this out-of-whack universe. However, a wise bear once told me, “take your pleasures where you can.”
Then, lo and behold, I receive a second text from someone purporting to be Don Jr. It starts out:
It’s Don Jr. My father and I need you to do one thing: update your voter verification record. David — then it gave a link.
Another report and block, but this second action did not give near the same pleasure as the first.
If only I could report and block them in real life… whatever that is.
And so it should not be.
