After almost 20 years with the same phone number, the one dad got me as a teenager, I have to change my number. I'm sad because he's passed away, and he thought my number was super unique and cool.

Apparently, strange men find it acceptable to give out my number to other strange men to "holler at me"

I can tell I've grown up, because I've called my lawyer for a C&D and blocked numbers, instead of threatening to crush their bones between my teeth.

Still want their powdered bones though, starting with the femur.

Your mobile number is often used for authentication, verification, and identity. Some stranger having your name, phone number, and potentially birthday can be really harmful to your security and privacy.

Be careful who you give your number to. Most of the time I give out my Google Voice number. But in the past, Signal did not have usernames, only numbers, so he got mine. At the time, I thought he was trustworthy.

And the fact random men think they can text a stranger for some fun is actually gross as hell.
