    I didn't tag @ReaderUnnatural because I couldn't recall the Twitter handle and their Skype handle was not working out for me over here. Also, I'm the worst. So Ayce gets their own comment.

    Why ******** should I drop whatever I'm doing at any given time to help YOU get SKYPE working on dad's work phone in time for work when he isn't even rostered to start in the next week?????

    @TheGodlyNoob I started on Para Bellum, but I really got into Siege at Grim Skype. Back when Maverick was broken as **** (typical) and night maps were still a thing. His strength is favela at night. Oh boi... those were the days. Now the game is balanced to boredom. Only fun is being toxic.

    Big shoutout to Discord, Mumble, Skype, and other similar online chat services. They suck as much as any mega company but they help me stay in touch with people. Incredibly greatful for that, especially now.

  • aWildLupiDragon Queer Wrath Moo (Lupi) 🌻🛡️🏳️‍🌈 (@aWildLupiDragon) reported

    @DannyBirman look, I can explain. ya know, your average boring friday afternoon.... just scrolling down the timeline and you see someone bring up Amir Khan's skype incident. Me, bored and interested, went on a hunt to find the video... Was I disappointed? No. But I am scarred.

    @RachelBitecofer My local hasn't had any layoffs or furloughs yet. We've worked at making sure that doesn't happen for as long as we can and that the FFCRA is followed. We have had a couple of issues like trying to use Skype for Business as a time-keeping tool and a couple other isolated things.

    @business To be clear, you can't pass it or get it on Facetime, skype or zoom. And yes, "herd immunity without vaccine" will likely kill your gramma and the guy down the street with asthma. Its not all about you. Go facetime your gramma.
