Paypal is now playing harder ball on artists, going after anyone even mentioning commissions.

Artists, send invoices. That way, no one has to say what the money is for on Paypal's paper trail.

Customers, SAY NOTHING about commissions. Just say "thanks" on donos.

Everyone: INCREASE THE CALLS.

📣 Germany's close to reversing its opposition to mass surveillance & private message scanning, & backing the Chat Control bill. This could end private comms-& Signal-in the EU.

Time's short and they're counting on obscurity: please let German politicians know how horrifying their reversal would be.

There are many that would devastate the trans community.

remember! you arent calling representatives to change hearts and minds, youre calling in order to INTIMIDATE them through sheer numbers into backing down on dumbass censorship bills.

politician's aides literally give them a spreadsheet on how many constituents call to oppose/support bills.

Hilarious.

My bank can just do a stop payment at my request though. That's free. That takes 15 minutes on the phone. And it actively harms them because payment processors do NOT like when you get a stop payment order placed against you.

What you do with this information is between you and God.
