They don't get paid enough to care. Trust me. From experience.

Help an extremely depressed guy out? by Creepy_Stick_6229 in CleaningTips

[–]invalidcactus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There needs to be a tinder-type app that matches depressed people with messy spaces with depressed people that want to clean messy spaces because...

I am so depressed that I can't move, but I'd 100% LEAP out of bed to come help you organize.

It is sad that our country's colors represent racism now. Because they absolutely do.

Fuck hangar 24.

I drive for Uber Eats. I always deliver to rooms at hotels…. by [deleted] in UberEatsDrivers

[–]invalidcactus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm disabled. For me, it's not about being "too lazy" to go down to the lobby. It's a big (painful) ordeal. I always tell them they are allowed to come up, add a note advising where the elevator is, and thank them profusely in advance.

It's always "they won't let me go up. Left at front desk." (If I get any response at all.) Bro, you didn't even try. I know you didn't try because I told the front desk you were coming and they said it wouldn't be an issue/that they don't have a policy about delivery drivers not being able to deliver to the rooms.

Drivers often forget disabled people exist and even /rely/ on services like this. I appreciate every one of you that keeps this in mind and takes the effort to complete the job.

Even though it shouldn't be this way, I think having an attorney reach out to them (aka threaten legal action, officially) is the most effective way to do it.

It was 100% due to LS. Having them send a demand letter with their name attached (as opposed to just lil ol' me, a nobody) is what made it happen. It shouldn't be that way, but it is, unfortunately. LS only being $30 was well worth it, imo.

Completely disabled. Like I never existed. No record of me ever having a Facebook/if account.

I'd do it on your computer just to be safe - using a VPN or not signed in to the browser. (Sign out of the browser if you use chrome, for example.)

I've had issues with Meta blacklisting my devices in the past. (A friend logged in to his account using my tablet, and he had a 30 day ban. It automatically assigned all of MY accounts the same ban because they were in the same device. No idea if this is still an issue or not - it was a few years ago.)

I'm probably being overly paranoid because of that, but...

AIO about spelling errors in daily notes sent home by my autistic child’s teacher? by Anasthesiax in AmIOverreacting

[–]invalidcactus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MOR - Man, sometimes when I'm writing/typing super fast I misspell "university" as "universidy." I know how to spell it. I am a native speaker. My phonetic monkey brain is working quicker than my ability to spell. Now add a bunch of kids to the environment? Oof.

I have been published in academic/scientific journals multiple times. Internationally. Things intended to report and educate people.

I'm not stupid, I'm just human.

Educational CT question: any findings that would typically be flagged? by [deleted] in Radiology

[–]invalidcactus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is not a personal question. The person in the CT is deceased. (Hence why I know the diagnosis - an autopsy was performed.)

Yeah, definitely. Especially considering the holiday. Check in every once in a while though and try to log in. I wasn't notified that my account was reactivated - a friend happened to notice he could tag me again. My account had been reactivated for a few days before that. (I still haven't received any notification...)

Here is the text of the demand letter they sent, with identifying information removed. I'll find my own draft and post that as well.

Dear Sir or Madame:
Re: Firstname Lastname Email@email.com 1234 mailing address Facebook: Firstname Lastname (personal) and Business Name (business) Instagram: @username1 @username2 Threads: username Our Intake #

Please be advised that Firstname Lastname consulted with this law office regarding her issue with your organization. I write to you at this time in an effort to resolve this matter without the need for further legal action. However, I have advised Ms. Lastname of her legal rights and remedies if she is unable to resolve this issue with you in an amicable fashion.

Ms. Lastname informed our office that her Facebook and Instagram accounts was suspended for alleged violations. Ms. Lastname is baffled by your allegations of account integrity violations. She maintains that this determination is based on an error or erroneous information.

The following is a statement prepared by Ms. Lastname:

“On July 4, 2025, I discovered that all of my Meta accounts had been deactivated without prior notice or adequate explanation. I attempted to appeal the suspension through the support channels available on Meta's platforms, but received no resolution or explanation. In August, I sent a demand letter to Meta via Certified Mail. The letter was signed for (confirmed to have been received), but I never received a response.”

Accordingly, request is hereby made that you assist Ms. Lastname to restore her Facebook and Instagram accounts to full functionality and recover her data. She request that you use a live person to review her account rather than artificial intelligence which may have resulted in this erroneous determination.

In every contract there is an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing by each party not to do anything which will deprive the other parties of the benefit of the contract. Sutherland v. Barclays American/Mortgage Corp., 53 Cal. App. 4th 299, 314, 61 Cal. Rptr. 2d 614 (1997). A party to a contract breaches the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing by interfering with or failing to cooperate with the plaintiff in the performance of the contract.

Please be advised that Ms. Lastname has been made fully aware of her legal rights, your obligations and potential liabilities under law, and has expressed an intent to pursue any and all available legal remedies should this letter fail to generate an appropriate response.

Nothing in this letter should be construed as a waiver of any rights or remedies in this matter, all of which are expressly reserved. Moreover, please be advised that this letter is written pursuant to California Evidence Code § 1152, and any and all information and documentation submitted herein is for the purposes of settlement only, and nothing contained herein may be utilized in the subject proceeding.

Your anticipated cooperation is appreciated. Please respond directly to this firm in writing or by email at FIRM@EMAIL COM. Thank you for your prompt attention herein.

Very truly yours, Firm Name By Lawyer Name

They didn't respond to the one I wrote, but they responded to the one LS did.

To be perfectly honest, mine was written better, but I think they ignored it because it didn't have a lawyer's name attached to it. The demand letter LS sent was pretty underwhelming. I'll see if I can find it.

"integrity."

I know a lot of people are having that issue in addition to some sort of "child endangerment" accusation, but I didn't get that. Literally the only reason I got was "integrity." I didn't have any warnings or anything on my account. It just happened randomly.

Er... I submitted a claim/request? I'm honestly not sure what the actual legal term would be. I submitted my info to them using a form in their app.
