Apparently P*ypal now asks for customer opinions on accounts sending invoices.
If you are paying an invoice to a nsfw artist, do NOT mention NSFW in any way, keep it blank even. you risk both your account and the artists.

If you're like me and you are struggling to contact your senators re: KOSA via their phone lines this week, I recommend attempting to send physical letters or emails in the meantime.

www.commoncause.org/find-your-re...
![Hi, my name is [NAME] and I’m a constituent from [LOCATION]
I'm messaging to demand [SENATOR] oppose S. 1748, the Kids Online Safety Act, also known as KOSA. This broad legislation does not protect anyone and instead will be used to block any speech that the Trump administration’s partisan FTC disagrees with. It pushes the “duty of care” onto websites and social media platforms to remove content that is “harmful to children”. It would lead to overcompliance, mass censorship, and remove access to crucial information re: everything from mental health, LGBT topics, substance abuse, eating disorders and more.
Additionally, while large, corporate platforms like X can shoulder the weight of “duty of care”, smaller websites cannot, leading to greater and greater concentrations of power online into giant corporate platforms rather than small and medium sized businesses.
KOSA will not make kids safer. It will make the internet more dangerous for anyone who relies on it to learn, connect, or speak freely. Lawmakers should reject it, and fast.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
IF SENATOR COSPONSORED KOSA: Additionally, I want to remark on [SENATOR]’s cosponsorship of this bill. I think it is shameful that [SENATOR] has backed a bill as transparently bad as KOSA. This will not keep kids safe, it is an excuse to censor the free and open internet. I will not be voting for nor donating to [SENATOR] in any future campaigns if they do not drop their co-sponsorship of this bill, and I will encourage everyone in my life to do the same.
Do the right thing.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:xawhcpoqu6pdxpp72fd43wuf/bafkreib65hm5kdos6y7hmzzg5pille43b6imitwgjf5exlupkcqyw6mgt4@jpeg)

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.

Seem to be getting a load of likes and reposts on this thread again, and I don't know why, but maybe it's relevant again as an example of the kind of abuse that gets incited against trans people by a certain name searching transphobic ringleader.
It's extremely hard to convey to the average cis person just how bad the harassment of trans people on social media has gotten and how aggressively we're targeted, because if you've not been on the receiving end of it for years, you can't really grasp how relentless it is, and how isolating it is.
Since about 2018 it became hard to say anything about being trans on that platform without constant demands by clearly anti trans groups to debate them over our own experiences or prove ourselves. This was after maybe 2 decades of us using the internet to share our experiences with normal cis people

If youre in Ohio, you should really take the time to contavt your state and federal level representatives about Age-verification!
The legislator behind the new Ohio age-verification law doesn't even know what's in the bill. He claims that it excludes social media sites. No such language exists.
This is why you don't push something you couldn't get passed the normal way into an budget omnibus.

Furries are to social media what amphibians are to ecosystems -- a bellwether of health. If furries aren't thriving on a platform, that platform is doomed to stagnation and heat death.
Furries literally helped make Bluesky. It’s no exaggeration to say the Bluesky is only as successful as it is because furries migrated to it en masse. Telegram is the same way.
Without furries posting their porn here, Bluesky will go the way of Tumblr. This is a plain fact.

Not even merely draconian age verification.
The AG buried the lede as the rule does not specify porn but “material harmful to minors,” the same language used to ban Pride merch in FL and managa in TX.
She also maintains most online porn is so heinous even age verification is not enough.
