Please continue making calls to Visa and Mastercard, because they are working alongside conservative legislators to crack down on free speech and expression!

starting Nov 1st we're entering the holiday season, which is a big stress point for big businesses like Mastercard and Visa. These Paypros havent stopped cracking down on Adult Content, so we need to jump back into calling them in full force again!

Please continue to make calls to paypros, and advocate to your representatives that the discrimination and debanking we see from paypros needs to end!

They're de-banking people for kink content online now

They'll come for you and your interests next - there's already been movement against vtubers in general, and games like Corpse Party are having their western releases canned over concerns about this stuff

Get loud before it's too late
Friend tried to donate to my Throne, flagged by fraud detection at Bank of America — bank identified the transaction as specially for “giantess voretuber Ana Valens”

I suspect I faced those Patreon / Ko-fi dings b/c financial institutions have me, specifically, on record as a high risk recipient!

I'm all for solutions for trying to "fix" or improve currency, but yeah, most people in crypto treat it like a commodity rather than a currency
If you need me, tap me on the shoulder. I’ll be happily working all day listening to this on a loop.

I don’t understand why Dems have to choose? “Trump is a corrupt billionaire pedo whose self-serving policies have made your life more expensive” is not that hard of a message imo
The usual suspects are telling Dems that Epstein won’t win elections, get back to “affordability” and I think my head might explode. www.offmessage.net/p/force-a-re...
Force A Referendum On The Epstein Coverup
It divides Republicans much more than "affordability" or any other economic issue.

we've outsourced the broad concept of focus-testing to social media metrics, and it's just shifted the same old problem to new areas. if you put your ear next to slop you'll only hear slop.

games need to be made BY people, not FOR people.
it's certainly been frustrating to see devs say more and more "sorry guys but we need to make our games shout out every thing and handhold every last point so that someone who doesn't give a fuck about it can sleepwalk through it"
like why pander to people who, essentially, do not like your work?

Hobbies cost money. Nobody looks at Magic the Gathering players or Warhammer 40k players and think suspiciously wealthy gamers. It's when money is given to other people instead of corporations does the math change.

Furries have mutual enjoyment of the craft and with that comes mutual support.
This fandom has a reputation for being "suspiciously wealthy" but the truth is most furries just love and value art and people so much that they want to use their money for art and supporting artists so they can make a living doing what they love. It's a cycle of genuine passion I think.
