A person who uses text messaging or instant messaging to send one-way communications. Even if you respond immediately to their postcard, there is little hope you will receive a reply. The postcard has already put their phone away or closed the instant messaging window after they delivered their postcard
Ian is such a postcarder. I received another one-way text message from his this morning. I replied the 2nd I got his message, but he probably already turned his phone off.

Get the postcarder mug.
When someone uses text messaging or instant messaging to deliver a one-way communication. Even if you respond immediately, there is little chance to expect a reply -- the postcarder has already put their phone away or closed the instant message window.
Oh boy, Jennifer is postcarding again. I texted her back immediately and got "Delivered", but she hasn't even "Read" my response. She is just happy to have delivered her postcard.

A postcard is a one-way communication you receive from someone via text messaging or instant messaging. The postcarder only cares about delivering their message to you (i.e., their postcard). It is so frustrating to respond back immediately to the postcarder and not get a reply.
I hate when my Mom uses text messaging to send me a postcard. Text messaging is for 2 say conversations. I want to throw the phone when I respond immediately and i get the "Delivered" indication, but she doesn't even "Read" my reply! Ugh!!!

Having your video off during a Zoom or Teams call. Similar to "on mute" - having your audio off.
Hey, I'm going "on cloak" while I finish my lunch.

Jim, you're "on cloak" - are you still there?
