When I was growing up, one of my Uncles had a barbecue in which he burned and charred all the meat

I, as a child with no filter: "I don't like how burnt this is."
My Uncle, as a joke: "It's not burnt. It's Cajun."
Me: "Well then, I don't like Cajun!"

Didn't try Cajun food for 27 years for that

he hasn't stopped calling~ have you? 🫵

how to call: stop-paypros.neocities.org

info and resources on pay discrimination: cartoonist.coop/censorship-p...

drawing of a man laying on bed with an old school phone in hand. he has a speech bubble that says "I'm so confused~ is what i'm buying illegal?" the text on the page says "keep calling and writing until payment processor censorship is reversed. one call a day makes a difference! mastercard and visa's statements aren't good enough. let's keep up the pressure together!"

In that Lasombra trailer, I saw people in the comments talking about how it is bad writing that a Neonate would talk shit to their elder.
But dawg. This is Lasombra. You're too Camarilla brained for this shit. Lasombra are new to the Cam, and they didn't join to be liked. They joined because 2I

Unfortunately Hans passed, but the unpaid bills remain and Brett needs help covering them to remain housed. Please pitch in or share around.

Clair Obscur Sphinx @lascaillesshroud.bsky.social · 2d

Thank you to all who've donated. The remaining funds will go to cover outstanding bills for both the vet and the bills I've let lapse over the last two weeks to pay for this, as well as paying back people who helped me front costs. Thank you all <3

Look how scary I am! grr~

I am so scary, that the most cowardly, loser-ass, unfucked dipshits want to take my rights away!

Too bad I'm here to stay! Too bad I probably live in their dreams.

UK response to the payment processor petition:

Government responded

This response was given on 6 October 2025

Payment processors are able to choose who they process payments for, subject to any relevant requirements. The Government has no plans to intervene in those commercial decisions.

Read the response in full

The Government recognises the important role payments plays in supporting a resilient, diverse and growing economy. The Government is committed to ensuring that the UK’s payment system works for all, allowing businesses and customers to transact with confidence.

The Government recognises that it is important for businesses to have greater choice in the forms of payment that they can accept. The National Payments Vision, published in November 2024, set out the Government’s ambition for a world-leading payments ecosystem, where consumers and businesses have a choice of payment methods to meet their needs. A key part of this ambition is the continued development of Open Banking, which enables consumers to make purchases using a wider range of payment methods, including account-to-account payments, thereby increasing competition in the payments sector. HM Treasury is working closely with the financial services regulators to deliver these outcomes.

Decisions regarding which businesses payment processors contract with are a commercial matter, taking into account the relevant requirements on the firm. These decisions will be influenced by a variety of factors, and the Government has no plans to intervene in those commercial decisions.

I appreciate you thinking of me when you see horror community stuff, but I'm not planning on submitting anything to anywhere until November comes around. Really overworked myself this season on being in so many events and such

I drink alcohol occasionally, but there's no drive to have more
I smoke weed, but only if i can afford it
I've smoked tobacco, but stopped to save $
I love gambling, but always stick to my budget

If I can have empathy for those struggling with addiction, you have no excuse. You're just an asshole.

Our producer is in dire straits. He has sold all his musical gear. He is working full time after having his long term disability taken away (which he was on for previously breaking his neck/multiple spine surgeries)

And now he is trying to save his cat. Please help or share. Thank you

My little man isn't getting better. He may have to be kept overnight a few days to make sure he's hydrated and eating right, and I'm working on selling anything I own not essential to survival to get him what he needs. Already sold my bass today for half its worth.

Bloodlines 2 is coming out in 17 days, and I'm worried that I haven't properly conveyed how excited I am for it.

... I am very excited for it.
