@pluralistic It's wild that when this happened to me at the (notoriously difficult!!) Chinese consulate, I had to get out of line, but they had an inkjet printer so my visa application went through. At the DMV, when I didn't have enough ridiculous documents, they just sent me home without a RealID and gave up.

@pluralistic but then you'd be an asshole trying to make bank by exploiting desperation, like a fucking class traitor who sells out his own people while they're begging for food under threat of death.
@burnitdown Lighten up, Francis.
@pluralistic getting my realID in PA was quite literally the most Kafkaesque nightmare I have ever experienced.
It took six HOURS, AFTER we got triaged by the person at the door checking to make sure you had the right documents with you.
The person being served next to me was an Afghan translator who had been one of the few to have been granted asylum during the Afghanistan military withdrawal, and the poor clerk had to tell this poor man that he couldn't get a RealID.
Like, HEAVY SHIT, MAN.
@pluralistic ...but you'd spend 8/9ths of that fortune on....ink
😜

I will, as a public service, find firmware to make that printer drink off-brand ink and like it!

When I moved the other year, I was required to get a new driver's license within 30 days. One of the valid forms of proof of address was a utility bill.
How I was supposed to move, set up a new utility account, and get a bill within 30 days was not explained.
