okay time to set yup the steam authneticator on this new phone which requires sending an SMS to my phone number which a) was on my previous network which does not receive texts via wifi, or even at all in this area, because their mobile reception is hot garbage, and b) hasn't yet ported over to my new network, and thus, my new phone, which DOES get mobile signal, AND also can do texts and calls over wifi.
...aahahahahahaha fuck e_e;;
