i always see people in the pvz fanbase like "you don't understand we have to support this to keep the pvz franchise alive" like. at this point i think keeping it alive is a net negative. has been for a minute tbh

Yall, just use invoices and label them as digital services, that is all you need for taxes and its HOW you are supposed to do business. Stop using friends and family and letting people send money to you. Half the time people are just breaking ToS straight up and that's why they get banned

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.

The Transfeminine Review @thetransfemininereview.com · 4d

"You make the best of it all and hope you can help make it a little better for the gurl after you."

- Miss Major, 2023 💔

One of the things I hear with some younger trans people I know is they feel, "I'm gonna get this surgery, and I'm gonna learn that way of speaking, and I'm gonna be done." You're never done. If you're a straight, cisgender person, you're never done. Things are always happening that have the potential to change you. So all I am today is not who I'm gonna be tomorrow, because of the things that happened to me today and later tonight. People forget that. "Oh, after I transition, I'm gonna be through." Well, good luck with that. 'Cause if you're through, then it's time to leave, you know, and I don't wanna go anywhere yet.
I'm in my seventies. Why didn't I stop? Number one is community. My gurls. I've had moments of thinking about stopping, but I didn't. I made sure I would step back, reju- venate myself, and then got back out there, and that's how you make a way. Our stories are not all the same, but the destination is: to get some place where we have some peace and harmony, and we can be at ease with ourselves and the people around us. You make the best of it all and hope you can help make it a little better for the gurl after you.

If you didn’t know, Alaska has been hit by a massive storm, causing severe flooding. Many Indigenous villages have been completely wiped out, with some houses floating away with PEOPLE INSIDE THEM. Please keep posting to spread the info. They need help.

News Eye @newseye.bsky.social · 5d

These are mostly indigenous communities in Alaska that have been slammed by the storm.

The local manager of a small airline fleet says he is the only one doing evacuations right now!

Defund FEMA and people are abandoned. Defund public media and no-one knows.

FYI, today is Indigenous Peoples Day.

Flooding seen with water up to the crash barriers of local roads

Sheds and debris lie scattered in the storm

A small blue house has been blown onto its roof

Razzlyn: Invited to what?

PANEL 2
Georgetta walks up to Razzlyn, holding the envelope in her hands.
Georgetta: Oh! Two close friends of mine are getting married!
Razzlyn looks nervous.
Razzlyn: Two close friends...?

PANEL 3

Georgetta: Razzlyn, whatever you're thinking about is obviously not what I meant.

Much like Kentucky Route Zero, your dialogue choices in Mario Galaxy 2 don't affect the path of the story but they change your understanding of the character

Dialogue choice in Mario Galaxy with two options: "that's right" and "yes"
