#Gmail password help

[seventypercentvodka]

Hi i'm getting desperate and I figured there has to be a tech nerd on Tumblr somewhere, so wherever whoever you are help please 🥺

I have my Google account open on my PC and my phone but can't remember my password and didn't save it when I opened it, can anyone please tell me how to see my password without changing it? If I go to configuration and personal data there is a place that says password and it has the *** thing, but when I click it says that I need to confirm my identity with my password and since it's a work mail the only other way I have it's to ask my boss for help and I will kinda rather die tbh I'm too new to this job to be this irresponsible please if anyone has any ideas hit me up

Even if you don't really know maybe tag my post with the correct tags so someone who knows sees it? I added what I could think of but is still not great

The last like 12 hours have been one disaster after another tbh and I think I am mostly to blame

Someone accessed my Gmail 2 days ago, compromising my linked accounts like Twitter and YouTube. Here's how it happened, why I fell for it, and what you can learn to avoid making the same mistake:

The scam I fell victim to was a cookie hijack. The hacker used malicious software to steal my browser cookies (stuff like autofill, auto sign in, etc), allowing them to sign in to my Gmail and other accounts, completely bypassing my 2FA and other security protocols.

A few days ago, I received a DM from @Rachael_Borrows, who claimed to be a manager at @Duolingo. The account seemed legitimate. It was verified, created in 2019, and had over 1k followers, consistent with other managers I’d seen at the time n I even did a Google search of this person and didnt find anything suspicious.

She claimed that @Duolingo wanted me to create a promo video, which got me excited and managed to get my guard down. After discussing I was asked to sign a contract and at app(.)fastsigndocu(.)com. If you see this link, ITS A SCAM! Do NOT download ANY files from this site.

Unfortunately, I downloaded a file from the website, and it downloaded without triggering any firewall or antivirus warnings. Thinking it was just a PDF, I opened it. The moment I did, my console and Google Chrome flashed. That’s when I knew I was in trouble. I immediately did an antivirus scan and these were some of the programs it found that were added to my PC without me knowing:

The thing about cookie hijacking is that it completely bypasses 2FA which should have been my strongest line of defense. I was immediately signed out of all my accounts and within a minute, they changed everything: passwords, 2FA, phone, recovery emails, backup codes, etc.

I tried all methods but hit dead ends trying to recover them. Thankfully, my Discord wasn’t connected, so I alerted everyone I knew there. I also had an alternate account, @JLCmapping, managed by a friend, which I used to immediately inform @/TeamYouTube about the situation

Meanwhile, the hackers turned my YouTube channel into a crypto channel and used my Twitter account to spam hundreds of messages, trying to use my image and reputation to scam more victims

Thankfully, YouTube responded quickly and terminated the channel. Within 48 hours, they locked the hacker out of my Gmail and restored my access. They also helped me recover my channel, which has been renamed to JoetasticOfficial since Joetastic_ was no longer available.

Since then, I’ve taken several steps to secure my accounts and prevent this from happening again. This has been a wake-up call to me, and now I am more cautious around people online. I hope sharing it helps others avoid falling victim to similar attacks. (End)

(side note) Around this time, people also started to impersonate me on TikTok and YouTube. With my accounts terminated, anyone searching for "Joetastic" would only find the imposter's profiles. I’m unsure whether they are connected or if it’s just an unfortunate coincidence, but it made the situation even more stressful.

Hi Ixi!

I know this doesn't directly concern Good Omens, but it's really important. Instagram/Meta has sneakily started auto-opting people in to surrendering all their data for generative AI training two weeks back. I don't have any reach, so I thought I'd try to send an ask to you in order to warn as many people as possible. Everyone who still has content (new or old) on Meta services would be affected by this, I think. Whether a profile is private or not does not matter - the only content they say they aren't touching yet is DMs.

The only options are to either force them to delete all your data and close the accounts, or opting out. Opting out is made to be deliberately annoying and may not even be available everywhere.

If it is, here's a short guide to do so: You should be able to find a message from Meta in your notifications saying something to the effect of 'we will feed you to our AI models'. Click on it, then click on 'right to object' in the text. Fill out the form. I don't think it really matters what one writes - in most places, they are required by law to honour the objection. It might help to have something to copy, so I freestyled this and it worked: "I object to my data being used to train generative AI in accordance with all applicable data protection laws. This is a gross invasion of privacy. I do not consent to my likeness being commercialised by you. You have no right to use this data as AI training data without my consent."

If the email with the verification OTP (one-time-password) doesn't arrive, switch off browser protection, try a different browser or a different email address. Gmail worked for me. The request is linked to the currently-logged-in Insta account, so the address used isn't relevant. If all goes well, you will receive an email at the OTP email address a few seconds later saying you've been opted out. That's it!

I hope you'll see this and that it can help people out, especially considering the sizeable artist community here on Tumblr.

Thank you!

Hitomi let curiosity win her over. She pulled her husband's laptop out of his bookbag after he had left it behind. He was always so protective of it and she had always been oneto snoop.

Her husband still wasn't due for another hour so she opened the case up. The bright screen flashing across her face as she typed in his password. She filled in the prompt as the screen unlocked. "You think after 7 years he would change it" she smirked.

The pages flew open several tabs and searches restoring their progress as Hitomi watched them flash across the screen. She surveyed the landscapes as she motioned the mouse over the options.

Tax reports. Billing notice. Steam account. Gmail... "Weird"

She fumbled over the final tab hidden in the background. Giantess.

She opened the tab as it popped forward. The search engine showing several graphic pictures more than likely her husband's porn. She backed up. Going back several searches as she shielded her eyes. "Is this really what he looks at."

She kept backing up till a website popped up. No more pictures just an ad.

"your wish is my command" she read the website title

A green button floating in the middle of the screen. Underneath a picture of her that had been imported.

She scrolled down. "Are you sure you want to continue" her husband had obviously never pressed the button apparently growing self aware.

Meanwhile Hitomi hovered over the button. This is what he wanted maybe she should indulge his fantasy. Without thinking she clicked the button. The computer flashed brightly blinding her as it lost power.

The computer fell of her lap to the bed as she shot up off of it. "What the fuck was that" she rubbed her arms as her skin crawled and tingled. She moaned as her body strectched and released energy.

"what's happening" her body began shaking. Her skin trembling. Her legs wobbling as she felt vertigo rushed her head. Her eyes full of panic as she trembled. Her skin her body it felt electric to the touch. Her body feeling Wave after wave of static rush past it. Her vision tunneled inward. As she braced her body. "Help me" she winced as she felt her body tighten and pressurize like a bomb.

Her face contorted as she wrinkled her nose.her eyes clasped shut as she sputtered and whined.she leaned against the wall as her legs grew weak. Her body heating up as her energy began rapidly piling onto her.

"mmm mmmm ahhhhmm. Help I'm gonna help someone it's HEEeeEELLpp"

She shrieked as she shot up.

Her shirt shot up her body turning to an overburdened crop top as her torso lengthened. Her legs shook as her yoga pants tore in the back. The fabric thinning against her thighs and calves.hef hips surged wider as her pants slid up her legs. Her calves exposing themselves as she winced.

Hitomi tried to recover her breath as she felt her bra pop off underneath her shirt. Her cups surging forward lifting her shirt off her body. Her bra falling at her feet as she gasped. Her eyes opening wide as she stared at the ceiling.

Hitomi stumbled as she adjusted to her new height.her clothes constricting her movement."how tall am I how did this".

Her body tightened again her body heating up."NO NOT AGAIN PLEASE"

Hitomi braced against the wall. Her former 4'10 body now resting at 5'10"

Hitomi shook and gasped as she heard a car pull into the driveway. The whites of her eyes exposing as she gasped in. Her body heating up rapidly as she trembled. Her knees whacking I to each other. Her legs indented Inward as if to cover her pussy. Her feet slid across the floor as her body rocked back and forth. She clasped her face shut as she groaned. The pressure building up. Every muscle growing tighter. Her skin strectching against her body. Her bones seemingly spasming inside of her. Her entire body building up energy as she struggled against it "no no no please no I can't do this what am I gonna do what am I gonna wear pleeaas..."

She shut her mouth as she yelped. Her body surging with wave after wave. Tears formed in her eyes as she struggled. Her head rushing with vertigo again. She gritted her teeth her face wincing as her energy built up. Further bigger larger "FUUUUCK"

Hitomi shrieked again as she shot up 2 ft at once. Her body barely under 8 ft as she heard the door open. Footsteps charging upstairs. Her shirt popped off. Her massive tits ripping it down her back as her yoga pants caved in. Shattering to smithereens amongst the ground. Her panties following suit as the tore off into the ground.

She heard the doorknob. Fumble as she grabbed a towel. Her head resting at her new height as she wrapped it around her. "Don't come in"

The door flung open her husband standing in shock he stumbked forward as he reached out a hand silently. Hitomi grabbed it as she leaned forward and bent her knees. "Help me"

"how did you do this"

"the computer I unlocked if and hit the button on the ad and it just..."

She winced her body heating up again "it's not stopping. Please"

He. Nodded as he raced towards the computer.

Hitomi gasped as her body began pressurizing quicker than before. "It's speeding up"

She grunted and moaned through gritted teeth. Her nose wrinkling as she crinkled her toes. Her arms pressing against the wall as she braced. Her body shook the room as she struggled for breath. "Can't stop help it's building up I'm gonna GROW"

Hitomi flew up. Her head bumping the ceiling before she fell to her knees. Her body shaking the room again. Her towel unravelled off her body as she fell. Her legs sprawling out backwards. Her ass billowing over her legs as she sat down. Her boobs filling her vision as her husband grew distracted.

"wedonthave time for this".

He shook himself as he focused on the computer typing furiously.

Hitomi rested at 12 ft tall. Kneeling she was still taller than her husband as she felt the energy build back up. "Shit not again"

It nearly overcameher all at once as she yelped. The energy billowing over her. She moaned through pursed lips as she spasmed. Her legs knocking desks and chairs over onto her. The bed next to her groaning as she bumped into it. Her eyes clasped shut as she felt her body tense up.

Mmmmm mmmm too much

Ahhmmpf ahhhh help ahhhh hurry.

Her energy built up her body heating up as she continued to whine and moan.

Ahhh ahhh it's happening ahhh AHHH AHHHHHHHFUUUUUCK

She orgasmed as she surged 8 ft taller. She fell to all 4s as her back pressed into the ceiling. Her body rushed over the bed splintering it as her husband bounded back into the corner. Hef body taking up half the room as she curled into a ball. She peered over her shoulder as he slipped out the door. "Wait DONT KEAVE ME HERE YOU HAVE TO FIX THI..."

"FUCK NOT AGAAIIN "

Her body trembled and spasmed. Ahhhhmm her legs pressing against the walls her back bending the ceiling as she stuffed for room ahhhhhh.

She pressed against the roof trying to force it open with no luck "commme OooOOooNn.

Her body locked up as it pressurized her face clasped shut against the pressure.

Mmmmmahhh ahhhhb not again plEeeasaEe

I I can't keeeeep groOoOwing AAAAAHHHH"

Her body flattened against the ground. Her head and feet billowing through both walls. Her legs dangling outside of her house as the neighbors stared. Her head stuck in her loft as she tried to free herself. Her ass cracking into the attic as her back pressed against the ceiling.

Before she could even try anything she heated up again.

She barely even tried as she approached orgasm. Her shriek piercing the air as her house collapsed around her. Rubble raining around her as she felt herself cum over the wreckage.

She looked at her surrounding as she sat up. Her head soaring higher as she orgasmed again. She cooed as she shot up. Her legs growing I to the couldesac the neighboring houses creaking against her ass. "I'm sorry I think I'm done" she said at 75 ft tall unknowingly as her husband pressed the button again as hedrivedkwn the free way.

So, my laptop has decided to leave this world, in the way of the motherboard no longer functioning. It was a long time coming, I've been taping it together like a bunch of scraps for a year now. 

I've said goodbye to it in a ritual where I hugged it and sang to it while crying, after trying to fix it for an hour and a half. It was kinda nice! I wish all of my past friendships had ended this way - hours of ernest attempts of fixing, followed by singing, hugging and crying as we part ways. I would have felt better about it all. 

I am having some withdrawal because I've been unwisely coping with my mental illness by playing stardew valley every availabile moment. And now I can't, so I am doing the only thing my phone is capable of - reading wikipedia. Which you're finding out about because I can't learn a new piece of infomation without instantly broadcasting it with a deep analysis of what I think it means.

So how am I still endlessly posting on tumblr when my phone can't even access it? Well. It's a process.

I noticed the woman I care for has a tablet, connected to internet. But it has a password. I've sneakily elicited the password (asked her if I can have it). But to seem polite and normal, I'm borrowing the tablet in 5-minute intervals. Which isn't enough to look trough messages, reply to asks, check notes and type a sensible paragraph and click post.

So I am typing this on my phone, which can somehow still open my gmail account. I'm writing emails to myself. Then I send it to my regular email account, which my phone can't open, but tablet can. Hours later, I open it on tablet, copy-paste the entire text on tumblr and click post. Tumblrinas will do anything to get her posts out there. 

On the other hand, I've been finger typing this for half an hour, I am on samsung galaxy android phone using one finger to type. It is rough out here. This method will work while I'm borrowing a tablet, and afterwards, I might be able to procure another laptop, we'll see! Someone is helping me figure it out.

Sorry everyone in my DM's that I got silent! I will write back to you when the gods of electronics smile upon me.

Your outfit for today 

It was a surprisingly quiet Saturday morning. Today your shop was closed, but your staff was still working tirelessly to finish the influx of custom orders. This was no uncommon flux however, it was that time of the year. La Mesa Alta’s annual ball was right around the corner, and people were coming to you so that they could scrounge together some outfits. You’ve been on your feet for a while, cutting at different types of fabric, sewing, perfecting, and repeating. This would be a vicious cycle, but you loved creating too much to be burdened by the workload and demand requested of you and your staff. If anything, that demand made you work harder.

A busy 4 hours later, you finally get the chance to sit down. It’s been a day already, and it's only noon. You were a little concerned that Mercedes didnt get back to you at 10, but you knew she would call you back at some point in the day. You open your laptop, and see a notification at the top from a name you didn't expect. 

! 1 Gmail Notification from dearrawashington@gmail.com

‘I know you’re fucking lying’

“Umm Gio! Mads! Here… and quickly!” They hurry quickly to your side and look at your computer. “What is i- what the fuck is that?” Gio says, pointing at the notification in the top right corner. Madison folds her arms across her chest and sits in her hip, rolling her eyes “I know that’s not who I think it is.” You hear Gio sigh and add on, “This bitch.”

“Calm down with the ad libs alright? Who is this girl anyway? I didn't know anything about her until she came into my shop.” You felt like you were missing out on some important information. Everyone knew about this girl except for you, and you know everyone. Usually. “Oh, I forgot, you weren't out here when she was acting a damn fool.” ‘Excuse me?’

“When was this?” You sit back in the swivel chair, looking at Gio. “While you had your appointment with Roman. She was looking through the clothes saying that her friend JT could make one design better than your entire rack.” ‘THE FUCK?!’ 

You didn’t stand for disrespect. Both of them knew that. So they knew that this wasn't gonna slide by you. “Lemme see what this email is about,” you say, typing in your password and opening up your Gmail. You were in no way excited nor looking forward to anything that this email was going to say.

Good Morning Ms. Semele,

Hello, I hope I'm not bothering you.

‘You are.’

I admired your shop and your staff so much! Working at your shop seems like such an honor.

‘This fake ass bitch.’

I was wondering how I can apply for a job there. I would like to work closer with the best fashion designers in the east coast, and you are deserving of the title.

‘Whaaaaaaat?!’

Please email me back at dearrawashington@gmail.com

~ With love, De’arra Washington

It was dead silent for the next minute and a half. She talks shit about your shop and then wants paid employment here the next day? You had seen all of it. ‘Maybe this can be helpful?’ With this influx of orders, you had been putting your staff through overtime. Maybe one more person could lighten the load for them. You didn't like the idea of her working at your shop based on what you had heard, but if she was offering help, you were going to give her a chance. You clicked the three dots and selected reply and typed a short response.

Hello,

Thank you. Much appreciated. Could you send in a resume please, so that I can look at your work experience?

~ Y/N Semele

“What the hell are you doing?” Madison looks at you with wide eyes. “Calm down, I don't plan to employ her, I just want to see if she’s any good. I already have another person who wants to work here that has a good resume.”

RING RING

Your phone buzzes loud against the counter and an unknown number displays at the top. You pick up the phone to hear a voice you had been waiting to hear all morning. 

“Hello?”

“Hey, it's Mercedes. I’m calling from my personal phone.” Fucking finally. “What happened to 10am?” She chuckled to herself and replied, “Got busy. Do you want the information or not?” “I paid good money, didn't I?” She sighs and says, “Fair.” I settled into the chair and put the phone on speaker. You told Madison to tell the other employees to take their lunch break while you three listened to Mercedes give a rundown on De’arra. She joins back with you and Gio and you tell Mercedes that you're ready.

“Alright. De’arra Washington, daughter of Kenan Johnson. He was one of the richest thiefs in the west coast. Specifically in California and Oregon. He stole everything from pencils to old paintings to jewelry. He was on the run for a while, so he fled to Florida and started his own family business and made that into a family mafia. Here in Florida, he met up with a prostitute and turned her into a housewife and had a baby girl while orchestrating robberies from the comfort of his home. De’arra is all kinds of spoiled. Barely got her high school diploma, and her father bribed the president of Howard University so she could study there. Got into a lot of trouble up there stealing shit.. Who would've guessed. And daddy was there to save her. After 2 years, she decided she didn’t want the college life and desired wealth, like her father and moved back to Florida. Speaking of Kenan, he's been eyeing Roman since he moved down here. That’s probably why De'arra is hanging onto him like a lost child. If I knew anything from my years in this business, I'd guess that they are the family trying to challenge Roman, or disassemble the Anoa’i family.”

“So you’re telling me that I'm dealing with a girl with a case of sticky fingers?” She laughs lightly and says, “Basically.”

! 1 Gmail Notification from dearrawashington@gmail.com

This must be the resume.

Of course! Here is my resume 

resume.pdf

~ With love, De’arra Washington

“Is she emailing you?” Mercedes asks, her tone laced with confusion, understandable though. “Yeah, I'm gonna see what she can do or if she can help me out here at the shop.”

“I've seen her resume before, it's forged. She’s only worked at minimum wage jobs. So anything that has to do with corporate jobs and fashion design is fake as fuck.” ‘What the hell is going on here?!’

“You still gonna give her a chance?” Gio says, reading the fake resume. “She’s not getting a chance, but I'm still gonna let her do a training session today so I can see what she is about.”

2:30 pm

You emailed her back and told her to come here at 2:30 pm to do a training session, which would technically be more like orientation. Both Gio and Madison knew that this could go sideways quickly if she tries something, but they also knew that you weren’t dumb. You knew how to handle yourself in bad situations. And you didn’t let anyone push you around. A red corvette sped across the huge display windows and disappeared into the parking lot on the side of the building. You took a deep breath to prepare yourself for the foolery you were going to face today. You fixed up your desk space and closed the file filled with De’arra’s personal information. 

 You heard the door open and saw two people walking in. “Ms. Semele?” You give her a polite smile and depart from your desk to shake her hand. There she was, wearing a pink crop top stopping right below her breasts and dark ripped jeans with pink butterfly strappy heels. She was hand in hand with someone you didn't know you would see today. 

“Hey Ms. Expert.” 

That made you genuinely smile. “Didn’t think I'd see you here again. Helping out the missus?” He smiles at you and slowly licks his lips, eyes drifting up and down your body. His eyes found yours and he focused all of his attention on you. “Yeah, I said I was gonna take care of her, and imma do just that.” De’arra gushes and latches onto his arm, but he doesn't budge; he keeps his eyes on you, smirking at you, adding the cherry on top. ‘Was he saying that to me?’ You briefly remember the last time you two spoke in person, and it seems like he was going to make good on his words. 

“Oh good, you're here, you can put your stuff in the faculty room. That ok Y/N?” Gio says walking in from the factory downstairs. “Yeah that’s fine. I need to talk with Roman anyways,” You reply, and Gio gives you a simple head nod. “What do you need to talk to him for?” You look at De’arra and she is already sizing you up. You laughed to yourself. There’s no way she’s really trying to pull these strings right now. “About La Mesa Alta’s annual ball.” You kept it short and sweet. Of course, that's not what you guys were actually going to talk about, but you needed to get her off your back. “Well my family is going to be added to La Mesa Alta too, so I should be a part of this conversation,” De’arra demands. “The only thing you should be a part of is your training session. Give me a second i'll be right there,” You fired back, shutting down her request. He trails behind you, but doesnt get far, due to De’arra’s small hand latching onto his wrist.

“You guys can just talk out here-”

“Hell no.” You were getting sick of this back and forth already. “Well why the hell not?” 

“Because it’s a private conversation about mafia business.” You could feel that she was already catching an attitude. “Well what type of mafia business involves you being in a room with him alone?” ‘This bitch..’ You turned around for the final time, and your face couldn’t hide the fact that you were fed the hell up. “The type of mafia business that doesn't involve you. Come on Roman.” He follows you into the room and closes the door. 

You wipe your hands across your face and catch him looking at you with a sly smirk. “Don’t look at me like that.” He walks closer to you and takes his hand in yours and holds it above your head, twirling you to face away from him. He wraps his arms around your waist from behind. You close your eyes and melt into his touch. You forgot how much you liked his touch. “That was so sexy.” His breath gave you tingles as he talked into the crook of your neck. “You missed me baby?” While he was luring you with his voice, his hands sneakily dipped into the waistband of your sweats. You turned your head to look at him and gently grab his chin. Your eyes shift from his eyes to his lips, and you lean in to kiss him, but his fingers teasing your folds stop you. “I didn't hear an answer.” He was already making you melt, and you were loving every single second of it. “Y-yes baby I missed you.” He was teasing you, getting close to your lips and then pulling away while rubbing at your sensitive clit. You couldn't stand it. You pull his chin closer to you, trying your hardest to kiss him, but he keeps pulling away still.

“Please baby, kiss me.” You wanted to feel his lips on yours so badly. Without warning his right hand clasps around your neck and finally attaches his lips to yours. His left hand was hard at work, pinching and applying pressure to your clit, while both of your tongues are fighting for dominance. You grind your hips against his hand, giving up on dominance for the time being and letting him take over. He takes his hands off of your neck to tug your tube top down to your waist, freeing your breasts. You moan into his mouth, feeling his warm hands grab at your breasts and the pressure building up between your legs. “Fuck baby that feels so goo-”

BANG BANG BANG

“De’arra decided she doesn't want to do her training session. She’s going to file a complaint to La Mesa Alta to have your shop shut down.”

‘Are you fucking serious?’

help me what do i do😭😭 i filled the laylo thing for both my email and mobile number and the website said to check my mail and messages respectively for the confirmation but i never recieved one. my country is not one im confident if they will even tour (if its even a tour) so i dont even know if tickets will be available here so idk if the thing is even supposed to work here. but like they did come here for ii so i kinda have hope its my only chance to ever see them live and i dont wanna have to miss that coz i missed the tour tickets announcement help mee this is kinda stressing me out and i get fomo all the time but i dont want fomo over this too

okay, breathe.

1) check spam. refresh it, just in case.

2) if there's nothing in your spam folder, try to go on Laylo website with VPN turned on. and enter your email again. or maybe enter an email that you didn't try with this thing before. if you haven't done this before, create a new email on gmail specifically. i heard that helped a few people. (although i don't think the issue is in the domain. but since there's no confirmation, try gmail.)

3) if it doesn't help, i can offer you to ask someone else to enter your email (like i did for my friend). i would offer my help, but only if you trust me with your email address. no passwords, no anything. just the address. because it can be a location thing. but it can also be a stupid glitch when they were changing their emails in Laylo's system.

and it looks like Laylo doesn't answer their emails when you try to contact them about not receiving anything. so, that's fun.

[toxartsukagakas]

Heya!

Sorry if this is a general ukugaka problem and not your area of expertise but when yes man tries to check my email it says "darn! It wont let me access your email, sorry :]" and i cannot for the life of me figure out how to fix it

Howdy! Yeah this is more of an overall SSP issue, but if you're using Gmail, then this guide here: [link] should detail how to setup app passwords, and this guide on ukagakadreamteam's tumblr: [link] shows where the app password goes, and that's probably why it's not letting SSP access your email. There's also a fuller explanation here: [link] for setting up email thru SSP. Hopefully this helps!

Good Omens fans! Here is a (super unofficial) checklist of ways to put pressure on the studios to renew Good Omens for a season 3 and (hopefully) to help convince them come back to the table for ending strikes asap. Note: US streaming referenced, but replace Amazon w your *official* local streaming if relevant.

Watch Season 2 ALL the way through (multiple times if possible) ESPECIALLY within the next week and a half. Keep it playing in the background (muted should be fine, but if you’re unsure, mute it on your device-side instead of in the app). Play it on multiple devices and on multiple accounts. Do NOT pirate it if at ALL possible in this period of time. Every view counts!

If you have friends who have Amazon Prime, ask them to stream it all the way through (in the next week and a half!), too. If they haven’t seen Season 1, watching S1 helps too! They don’t have to even actually watch it, just let it play through. Call in those outstanding favors! Offer to help them out w something else later in exchange.

If you have friends who have *never* had Amazon Prime, have them sign up for the free trial and have the FIRST thing they stream be both Season 1-2 of Good Omens. New viewers like this are worth extra in Prime’s eyes bc they see them as a potential new source of income! Now is the time to help your technologically challenged aunt set up streaming for the first time!

If you want merch, buy official merch! Idk how much this impacts their decisions, but it can’t hurt to show them there’s demand for it.

Make an IMDb account (you can link w gmail or other accounts so there’s no new password to remember) and rate the show! Make sure you verify your account (there are simple instructions online), rate Good Omens S1 and S2 as a whole *and* rate each of the episodes individually! If possible, leave a glowingly positive review! Also, go through and rate/review a handful of other things so it doesn’t look like you ONLY did it for this one show (might I suggest OFMD and other positive queer media?).

Ack. So I used my school google account for my main @minty-bubblegum . I never thought to change the Gmail hooked to it or to set an email and password. So now I'm locked out. I have no idea what to do and I'm stressing really bad bc I do not want to lose my blog and I can't access it to change my email. For now I will be alternating between this blog, @mintys-losthermarbles and basically all my spam reblog accounts. If anyone knows how to contact support of such please help :((

Rant incoming

WHY IS TECHNOLOGY SUPPORT SO GODDAMM DIFFICULT I SWEAR TO GOD.

So. I want to play minecraft online. I don't really use my Microsoft account often but I figure it should be fine. I get signed up for PS Plus, I pay my £6.99, and now I just have to link my Microsoft.

I do the link. I submit the code, then the email, then the password...then the code again then the email then the password and so on so forth until the link expires.

I make a new Microsoft account, as suggested, and it actually seems to be getting somewhere. Until the game is like "Oh you have to sign into the account linked with your game. Yknow, Jyan, which we can remember the name of but not your freaking details".

So I try that. Get in a loop again because it's that outlook email. I sign into Gmail outlook, everything looks fine. I have a string of very recent emails from Amazon about a refund so I know my email *works* at least.

But log in still won't work. So I look on the Microsoft question thing for answers and someone has had the loop issue. There's a link about account recovery. I'm desperate, I mean what the hell nothing else is working, so I use that link. They ask for an alternative email to send me a confirmation where they explain that I did not give them enough details and, as a really really kind courtesy (BECAUSE THATS HOW THEY PHRASED THIS, LIKE IT WAS A COURTESY) they've locked me out of my account :). Yay :). Because they take security reallllly seriously. Except they haven't Because I can still access my emails on the Gmail app but still can't do anything else.

By the way, did you know once you link a Microsoft account to a ps4 account you can NEVER UNLINK AND RELINK A NEW ONE?! Why. What do you GAIN Microsoft. Oh also because ps plus is a paid service they really hate you using it on other accounts of the same ps4 device or really any online features on any account other than the main one. Because what.

So clearly my issue is too complicated for online articles. I've tried and got no where, in any case worse. Let's try reddit - SYKE ALL THE BOTS RUINED REDDIT AND I CANT ACCESS ANY TECH SUPPORT GROUPS TO ASK QUESTIONS MYSELF UNLESS I GET SO MUCH KARMA. GREAT.

So. Microsoft tech support. Please be a good - OH OF COURSE ITS NOT

To summarise this amazinggggg service

1 - CAN'T FIND A RELIABLE NUMBER BECAUSE OF THE SCAMS

1.5 - Google AI summarise RECOMMENDED ME A SCAM NUMBER AS THE OFFICIAL ONE

2 - I can't find anywhere where I can submit a text complaint.

3 - All the search bars just take me to pre written articles as if I haven't read enougj

4 - THEY THEN OFFER ME A PAIDDDDD SERVICE TO "GET FIRST IN LINE FOR GPT TO SOLVE MY ISSUE"

What. The actual. Fuck.

I just want to talk to a human who knows something PLEASE. No none of the articles have helped. No I don't want AI to tell me, it has PROVEN its USELESSNESS. I just wanna talk yo a freaking human, preferably over the phone, who can tell me what to do or initiate some stiff themself because clearly the design has self imploded and IM JUST SO FREAKING FRUSTRATED IM SAT HERE WITH £7 OF A WORTHLESS SUBSCRIPTION AND NO RELIABLE TECH SUPPORT TO FIX IT ALL BECAUSE EMAIL BROKE BUT NOT REALLY.

And that doesn't even BEGIN to worry about whether I'm gonna be able to get my money back on this completely useless service.

So I'm turning to Tumblr. What's tumblrs tech support like??? I don't know, maybe there's a genius out there SOMEWHERE. Because clearly I can't use reddit, thanks barrier to entry :/ and I can't just ring up a human who can actually listen to my words with the nuances that don't fit into the fucking booklet.

If anyone knows anything that could help, please leave your wisdom here I'm frustrated and desperate and don't wanna lose £7 on something I can't even use.

hey folks, just another update on my situation:

the good news is i have a new gmail and access to the phone/internet again (!) and most of my important stuff is safe. the bad news is i can't get into my old gmail and the scammer got my IP banned on discord. working to resolve both issues but it's a slow process. i just wanna say a giant thank you to everybody who reached out. it sounds cliche but it really helps knowing that i'm not alone and it's seriously devastating how often this happens.

i can't say it enough but please stay safe, folks. keep track of all your passwords and personal info. if somebody tries to threaten you with the fbi or legal action if you don't hand them over, block and report them immediately. my scammer was posing as a discord security agent and i later learned that discord security doesn't contact you via one on one calls but email. it would've been nice to know that forty-eight hours ago but...yeah. hard lesson learned.

meanwhile, i have to work tomorrow and monday but i'm gonna try to do some drafts because writing has always been really therapeutic. also thinking about dropping some muses that i haven't written in a while. timon, sally, fawn, and the wolves are definitely staying but still debating about the others. my current muse list is attached to the old gmail and i gotta update that too. just taking it one step at a time and hope everybody else is having a good weekend. 💛

yall i need ur help😭

so i live in canada(wondering if its smt to do with that), and it's around six in the morning for me, i stayed up most of the night, anyway, i went straight to space camp and sturniolo clothing, i got the black friday deal for space camp and my restocks are ordered, but when i go to the triplets website.

(i know this is the actual one as well because i've bought from this one before and it was actually their merch.) it just shows a picture of them, (still in their halloween merch) and it says, 'email' and i put my email in, nothing happened. but at the top it says, 'enter using password' then.

when i click that, it tells me to enter my password to get in the store, i'm honestly very confused😭

do i put in my gmail password? will it let me in if i do? is the black friday merch just not out yet? please let me know if this has happened to yall before and what i should do😭

because i really fucking want that hoodie chris was wearing in the car vid and prob more that they'll be releasing

tysm to anyone who helps me

hey probably dumb question but i’m a new writer on tumblr what do you write your fics on (like notes, files, idk🤷🏻‍♀️) thank you!! i love your work btw!🌸🌸🌸💗💗🥰

Hi! That's not a dumb question at all!

I think it will always depend on what works best for you based on how you write but I primarily use Google Docs for a few reasons.

Writing/Editing Versatility - For the most part I write on my computer but occasionally I'll write or edit in the google docs app on my phone. It's seamless and fast to switch between the two. If I have a few spare minutes I can pop open the app on my phone and make edits and then when I check back on my desktop, it's all there so I feel like it really helps in an on the go sort of way.

Backups Worry Free - You never have to worry about "saving" in google docs. It does it every few seconds or basically when it sees you take a break from typing. My old computer crashed and died pretty violently about maybe six months after I started on tumblr and I lost all my original backups, including other original docs I had on my computer. Thankfully I do save off to an external hard drive every so often but it's annoying to remember to do that. You computer dies? Phone breaks? Google docs is tied to your email so as long as you remember your password, you can always get your stuff back

Google Docs space is pretty big (and free) - Tying into backups, google gives you quite a bit of space to use for free. Trust me, I have hundreds and hundreds of docs, some pretty freaking long and I'm nowhere close to nearing the cap. Google Docs is also free to use and you only need a gmail to use it.

Copy/Paste into Tumblr isn't too bad - Here's the one non-writers might not realize. Tumblr isn't the friendliest when it comes to pasting in text you wrote elsewhere. Often writers need to re-format (and I can tell you that's super fun on lengthy fics). Google docs generally copies pretty good though. The only thing it gets hung up on is it doesn't include "breaks" or when you add spaces when you paste over but that's typically pretty easy to correct.

I know quite a few writers use google docs for these reasons but ultimately use what feels best to you!
