I am having so much trouble with the pronouns in this short, largely because I KNOW the character's pronouns are she/her, but the POV character doesn't, so he's using they/them.

If writing is so easy why do people argue that they can’t do it without the pablumatic verbiage extruder

And if it’s so difficult then why do people think it’s not labour and writers are not workers

The lines are getting clogged from calls and Mastercard is feeling very pressured, they're looking into how to act in response. They're collecting information on callers to have a better understanding of who is calling in re the censorship issue

Spoke to my source familiar with internal workings at Mastercard. The holiday call campaign re payment processor censorship is working, there is a lot of pressure being felt from your calls. This is resulting in increased response times at a core moment for Mastercard due to the holiday season

“What?”

Something cold and hard pressed against her nape. Ellie clenched her jaw, really wishing she could kill Angus right about now.

"Mouthy, isn't she, Boden?" He sighs. "Never thought l'd be into that, and yet. Bane of my fucking existence." His eyes flit to mine.
"Don't stop on my account," he says with a lopsided smile. "I love watching asses being ridden. It's my favorite kind of porn."

I liked old (early 2000's) Paranormals for this. The women almost always had at least 1 lady friend at the start and by the end usually has a cavalcade of women who would show up and be like, "hey girly! This man being stupid? You want me do a killing for you? I can do a killing for you."

PayPal has rolled out a new "feature" that prompts you to leave feedback about an artist that you've commissioned via invoice.

Whatever you do, DO NOT fill this out! To quote Admiral Ackbar, "IT'S A TRAP!!!" It is meant to misguide you.

FYI

That’s not tax fraud. So long as you still report that income to the government and pay the required taxes, you’re good. PayPal just doesn’t report it for you.
Clarification: Accepting payments for commissions through Friends & Family is against TOS (which you agree to by making an account), and it is TAX FRAUD.

Do not ask for comm payments via F & F. Dont let an artist convince you to pay this way, because your account can be taken down as well.
Lots of "don't write 'commission' in PayPal's feedback box for invoices" misinfo/fearmongering going around.

Yes, PayPal is censoring nsfw/queer artists like other payment processors. No, the word 'commission' will not get you flagged unless youre taking Friends & Family payments for commissions.

The actual secret to why I know stuff is that I ask a question any time I don’t understand literally anything. I don’t care how simple it is. Anybody who makes fun of you for asking a simple question likely doesn’t know the answer either

Considering what I know about Aries, why isn’t March enemies to lovers? Just saying.

Also, April should totally be small town as Taurus are homebodies to the core.
