I don't even know how to get these texts

Good luck, neighbor.

More stats would be nice, like:

  • Viewed
  • How long was the message viewed
  • The part of the message where the eyes lingered the longest
  • What is the recipient of the massage doing now?

Agreed, the problem with text messages is the lack of trackers and engagement metrics.

These are all great stats, but I feel like you could have asked them while you were giving them the massage

Live life, or what's the point?

Captain Picard once said "Tis better to have loved and lost, than never to have loved at all"

He also said, "It is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose. That is not a weakness, that is life."

He also said, “There are four lights!”

[–] IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago (1 children)

He also kept asking for his phone

Yet he never got one

[–] fleem@piefed.zeromedia.vip 2 points 2 days ago

Nothing wrong with that but also don't wait for a reply
