  • between work colleagues, sure, but if it's a government office or just a business, there's no way i'm going through all the channels online. i've had many cases where a bureaucracy would have crushed my request, but because i got through to a living being, the matter was cleared up in minutes.

  • i'm neurodivergent too. did you know that you can hear a person smiling in a phone call? make connections with people now while the world will still let you. it only gets darker if you folks feed that isolationist anxiety.

  • i don't have anxiety. i have every reason to have anxiety. i was an only child in a terrible school system with hyper religious parents at a time when the world was becoming more and more progressive, but you know what? i reached out to the people who i admired and made a human connection with them and i got over it, just like almost anyone else can.

    and i'm a better person for it. if i had stayed in that shell, i probably would be severely depressed or dead by now.

  • i love how this immediately became about tech support, as if that's the only thing that humans need to communicate about. ya'll seem more alien to me with each passing day.

  • well get over that shit. the world keeps getting colder as we keep becoming more isolated.

  • emails definitely have a purpose and i often request an email when i know there is information that will need to be referenced more than once.

    but just like a picture is worth a thousand words, a phone call can clear things up in seconds that might have taken an hour to type effectively, days to respond to, and still might not get the actual answer you're looking for.

  • my god, children. you all frighten me. what's wrong with a phone call?
