Try to be more careful when it comes to giving out personal information. I'm happy your mom managed to fix it for you, but you might not be so lucky next time. So make sure there isn't a next time. Much love friend, wishing you well!

Yep, a stupid problem to have and a lot of it is voluntary, there are alternative services, people just don't want to use them. They can't even fathom the idea of having to pay for a service, meanwhile they complain about how their "free" services are misusing the data they willingly give over. I've never been to a restaurant that did that yet, but I will keep that in mind. The individuals talking about it made it seem like it was something you had to deal with, like there was no possible way to get a paper menu.

Yet another USPS feature I can never get to work. I despise things moving to digital. Not everyone has a phone, not everyone has a computer. Apparently, restaurants are trying to lock their menus behind QR codes now, which is absolutely ridiculous. These systems are explicitly designed to turn away certain groups of people. I will fight tooth and nail against the removal of physical things in favor of objectively inferior counterparts. It seems I'm not the only one, either. I did end up mailing the package, my apartment has an outgoing mailbox, but I wasn't sure if employees could access that. I don't want people to tamper with my mail, I don't even trust the post office. I asked today, and apparently they do not have a key, only USPS does. I also still have a street box by a grocery store, so that's nice.

So, I needed to mail a package, spent all day printing up a shipping label. USPS wouldn't accept my cards for some reason. Stamps.com worked, autocorrected the address, removing the APT/SUITE number and just putting in the street address again. So I had to refund that....then stamps.com isn't accepting my cards either. Have to call customer support, they do eventually get it resolved, very kind people over there. Anyway, I look at the temperature, and it's like 97.6F outside. I sit there and think "well the mailbox isn't that far, I'm sure I'll be fine." I walk over to where we usually drop off the mail. I know the direction and the general whereabouts of the mailbox, but not it's exact location. So, I'm walking on the street that the mailbox is on, and I don't see it, so I walk further (usually my wife is with me, but today I went alone.) I ended up going far past where the mailbox is supposed to be, no mailbox anywhere. On the way back I look on the side of the street where the mailbox is supposed to be, nothing. The mailbox is gone.

When my wife and I were living with my parents we had a $50 Walmart toaster oven, and it worked wonders for us!

@DailyDiJust gave a $50 on @BoTox's behalf, as he wanted $50 of his prize money from the contest to be donated to DD. So he's the one to thank for this one.

Happy I could help, that's exactly what these contests are intended to do, so I am happy that it's working, at least to some degree. I intend on doing another one of these, probably in 2023 if I am able.

The contest has officially ended. @BoToxSince you are the only one who entered the NSFW Category, there is no need for you to wait for judging. I will contact you shortly to receive your $150 prize. Otherwise: @Mee@PeculiarChangeling@DainaGirl The judging begins now and will end by or before August 24th (Most likely after I get paid) Please keep an eye on your DailyDiapers DMs (Especially after the 15th) as this is how I will be contacting you. After being contacted, you will have up to 30 days to reply.

Alrighty, I've added it to the list of SFW Stories. Thank you for entering!

Little over a day remaining. To account for timezones, the contest will officially end August 8th around 12noon PST.

My wife and I alternate who gets the spending money each month, so unfortunately this month is her month, so I can't donate, otherwise I would. I will try to pitch in in the coming months. I get august and September's spending money because My birthday is in September, and we allow double months when it's our birthdays.

NSFW is purely based on sexual content, in this case. Nonbinary and transFTM submissive would be allowed, yes. Length is not important, what matters is the actual contents of the story. A longer story might have an advantage only in the sense that they could flesh out their concept a bit more. But what is most important is the concept of the story and how well the writer executes that concept. Readability is also exceptionally important. A preexisting universe and fanfiction would be fine. You might be at a disadvantage with fanfiction, though, depending on how important knowledge of the original source material is. If I do not know the source material I might not be able to enjoy/understand the story as much as an audience who does. I hope this answered all of your questions.

Your entry has been added as an entry to the SFW category, thank you for entering!

I see what you did there......it's a moose pun, right?

And we went over! Nice work everyone, pulled it in at the last second! We did it, we made number go up!

Unfortunately, I'm super short this month, but figured that even a small donation was better than no donation, so I put in $20.69 in the pot.

Might be able to donate a small bit at the tail end of the month, depending on how things go.
