That’s good to know. I’ve pretty much always been a TMO customer aside from a couple of years when I was with Cingular around the time of their buyout. They were pretty open back then.

I buy all of my phones carrier-unlocked, and have never had a problem.

Potential pitfalls are if the IMEI is blacklisted, which could happen if the phone is reported as stolen, or if the radio deck isn’t compatible with your carrier’s network.

In the US, the AT&T and T-Mobile networks are pretty open, and you just need to pop in your SIM card. I don’t have experience with Verizon to know if you can bring your own device or not, but I imagine as long as the phone can work with Verizon then its probably just a matter of visiting a store to have it activated.

Alive, but voting Democrat.

Ruminate on that a moment.

Oh staaahp. Tue timeline JUST got interesting, and you gotta be all Bantha-stank about it.

Just sit back, have a Toke & a smile, and watch. (Also, vote!)

Isn’t this the plot for The Purge,or something?

Denver, hey? Seems to make sense for the Libertarian party. I spent a week there on business once. It wasn’t Atlanta or Baltimore, but it was alright.

Who doesn’t want low taxes and cheap weed?

People like Kinzinger provide an offramp for Republican voters who are waking up to the reality of the post-Trump GOP to vote their conscience. For better or for worse, we are mired in identity politics, which for many means being a Republican. Folks like Kinzinger are saying you can still identify that way if you want, but it doesn’t mean you have to vote for Trump-- you can put country over party and that’s okay.

He’s doing the job of the Judas Goat which, frankly, we need him for.

I see where this question is leading, and I don’t think I like the implications
