Allow me a rant about how tech-focused "solutions" don't really help anyone IF the process is faulty from the start. My case study for the day is the DFA Passport Appointment system (which, I believe I called a joke a few days ago).

I'm still getting an Error 520 from different pages on the DFA site. Sometimes it's before entry to the front page, sometimes when I click on which DFA site I want to set an appointment with, sometimes when I click on a date to set my appointment.

Anyone else having this issue? You know,when I last had my passport renewed 6 years ago, it was hard (harder than when I renewed it 6 years before that). I'm from the Republic of the Pila Islands, my tolerance for queues is very high. But this is painfully impossible.

Anyway. This was a drive-by rant against the incompetency of this effing government. Screaming into the void works.

Things that are impossible to do in this country: Register to vote. Like really, people line up overnight in malls in order to exercise their right to vote. Renew a passport. The DFA website is a joke. All other websites are embarrassed to that it calls itself a website.

And with that, I disappear from this bird app once again. Oh, but before that, listen to #BTS_Butter to clarify your skin and for happiness. 😝

It's so weird, that even after all these years, some white men still behave as if as I need "a reminder" to approach my training in a holistic way. Shaking my damn head so much that I'm getting vertigo. WTF.

"Customer service" where they give you a scripted response to every question is a joke. It's like beating your head against a wall that only says, "Sorry for the inconvenience. You just have to keep waiting. But would you like to rate my service right now?"
