emily, professional edge case

emily@fedi.uni.horse

<p>I make electronics go beep boop and tools go spinny. Also, I pet cats sometimes.<br><br>I am eternally grumpy that the state of the internet, and of fedi in particular, is such that the following isn't obvious:<br><br>If it's visible to you, you can interact with it. If it's public, you can boost it. You don't need to ask me for permission first.<br><br>I understand nuance and will not be mad if you respectfully disagree with me on something.<br><br>Follow requests require approval only for cursory vibe checks, and will be accepted if your profile has literally anything to suggest you're not an asshole or spambot.</p>

    does anyone ever actually call the &quot;get in touch with us&quot; numbers on the back of food packaging? what happens if you do? kind of curious but not curious enough to risk getting into an extended conversation with a jellybean enthusiast
