We were at a penguin colony. People were told not to use their phones because it confuses the penguins. Signs, audio warnings, staff shouting at people, more signs. People couldn’t fucking stop using their phone.
Alan Oskar Colonna-Walewski 🎞️@aocw.bsky.social · 3d agoPhones are an illness. I was at a Chopin concert in Warsaw today, and I swear half the audience couldn’t go five minutes without pulling out their phones. Pictures, videos… for what? You’re never going to watch that shaky 47-second clip again.

Classic spam email "This service is provided to you at no charge by the Internal Revenue Service (CRA)." Nope the CRA is the Canadian tax collection agency and the IRS is the US version.
