This is "debanking", and its a problem that has plagued sex workers for decades. It isnt right when its targetting sex workers and its not right when its targetting game devs and creators either.

Give paypros and your givt reps your grievances and demand that debanking of adult content stop

Per Reddit: Steam adult developer in the UK is sitting on a USD equivalent of six figures, can’t find a bank to take his money because the developer creates adult games

I develop adult video games on Steam. I can't find a bank that will actually let me withdraw my money from Steam. Can I get some advice?
Game has sold quite well on Steam. I've got almost £90,000 ready to withdraw after Steam's cut + VAT taken off.

However, it's been 2 months now and I can't find ANY bank in the UK who will let me withdraw my money from Steam.

I've been banned/refused/unable to get a business account with:

Wise
Revolut
Monzo
Monese
Chase
Starling
Nationwide
Halifax
Barclays
Lloyds
RBS

It always comes down to, "Where did you get this money from?"

"It's coming from games I sell on Steam."

"Can we see the store page?"

"Sure."

"I'm sorry, we can't do business with you at this time."

It keeps coming down to a commercial decision purely because I make adult content.

What the hell am I supposed to do? I've pretty much exhausted the whole banking system. I just want to be able to be paid for products I've sold.

A gentle reminder: If this goal is not met, we will be homeless.

I am an Indigenous person that's been through utter hell in the last two years. I am disabled and queer. Despite being marginalized, I'm the one having to carry the burden of finances. It has been extremely difficult.

Anything helps.

Happy Indigenous People’s Day, I’m a Borikén Taíno creative who is the only income and trying to keep a roof over mine and my partner’s heads.

The last almost two years have been extremely difficult, and many Indigenous people like me live below the poverty line.

07. COVEN - #VividShadows 2025

In the darkest heart of the deepest wood, the sounds of lovemaking echo out from between the crooked black boughs. Those bold enough to disturb the witches during their ceremonies tend never again to see the light of day.

She never minded her sister Siren getting most of the recognition, sailors were terrified of her ship-wrecking storms, and ailing women knew to look for aid in her garden.

No one knows why, but ever since she moved to the neighborhood the number of drownings have skyrocketed. Curiously enough though, hate crimes are at an all-time low... So no one is in a particular rush to call the police.

@dogblud.bsky.social did this commission for me in 2022, I love how she drew werewolf Skrime here!

Also, Dogblud and Ependa are open for commissions right now! If you like werewolves, especially of the sapphic variety, you should go commission them! werewolvesversus.site/DEcomms.html

@stickersdrg.me is sitting on a couch, while werewolf Skrime is laying on the floor with hir head resting on Stickers' thigh, hir muzzle is pointed inwards so that it is on top of Stickers' bush. They are looking in each other's eyes. Both of them are partially undressed and Skrime is pulling down on Stickers' panties. Skrime's dick is sticking out of hir own panties.

if I'm not mistaken, this is the first UBI scheme where they aren't in some stupid endless "study" and finally have enough data to just simply DO it, and of course like all the studies showed, the result is a huge boost for the economy

Mike Sowden @mikeachim.bsky.social · 8d

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy:
www.citizensinformation.ie/en/employmen...

Post from Threads user rodneyowl: "Ireland has declared the Basic Income for Artists scheme permanent. This will be officially announced in tomorrow’s budget. Details to follow. Congratulations to all who fought for it and the present and future artists of all sorts in Ireland. That includes me 👌We’re just comin to the end of a 3 year pilot scheme. It’s been a roaring success. For every €1 paid out to the 2000 participants, the government got €1.46 back. Can’t argue with that. Other countries are already taking note."
