Washington- they’re trying the internet age restriction stuff here. Do you want to give up *your* privacy because someone else can’t properly parent *their* children? Comment, call, don’t let it pass!
Do you live in Washington State?
I need you to do two things:
1) Go here (app.leg.wa.gov/billsummary?...) & read HB 2112.
2) Go here (app.leg.wa.gov/pbc/bill/2112) & leave a comment urging your representatives to vote AGAINST the bill.
This is SERIOUS shit. Please!

"Haidt’s claims of inherent harm are not well-founded, and the policy proposals to ban kids entirely from social media are a bad idea. For older teenage boys, having no social media was associated with *worse* outcomes than having too much of it"
Two Major Studies, 125,000 Kids: The Social Media Panic Doesn’t Hold Up
For years now, we’ve been repeatedly pointing out that the “social media is destroying kids” narrative, popularized by Jonathan Haidt and others, has been built on a foundation of…

Nobody who's not in your head or in your skin understands how hard you're working to stay alive & "functional." Do not take sh*t about your life, appearance, body, career, symptoms, or anything else, from someone who by definition doesn't know what the f*ck they're talking about.

I think if I ever did art commissions, and someone did a chargeback after getting the finished piece, I would give them one chance to pay me properly (and an added 25% Inconvenience Fee)...
And then if they were foolish enough to refuse, I'd just straight-up doxx them.

It is so hard to be a functional adult when something as simple as accidentally spilling soup sends me into an emotional flashback that leaves a malaise throughout the day.
I'll push through. Like always. And I'm grateful I can autopsy it like this.
But I'm ready for this to not happen any more.

We all depend on payment apps like PayPal/venmo/square/stripe- etc.
The CFPB has been shut down.
Due to this, digital banking transactions are higher risk for fraud and illegal activity.

The fact that the adults in your life heavily controlled & distorted your sense of reality growing up does not mean your memories aren't "real," meaningful, or impactful.
Don't fall into the trap of invalidating your memories because they feel like a dream-- or a nightmare.

After years of repression, it's hard to know what to do, what to say, and what to show.
Being multifaceted like this, with goals and desires that are not all perfectly in-sync, makes it feel like there's an internal tug-of-war going on.
What to reveal? What to conceal?

I deserve to know what I will pay at least thirty days in advance.
I deserve clear communication, delivered in a civil manner at a reasonable volume.
I deserve to not be verbally abused.
I deserve to be treated with respect and dignity.
Yelling will not work on me anymore.
It is only tiresome.

Apparently it was $360 dollars, and they refused to tell me that until I presented the money.

URGENT: I must come up with the remaining $173 dollars today, or I will be forced to choose between returning to my abuser, or homelessness. I want neither of those. Please help me.

Tried to donate plasma for another hundred dollars. Got rejected based on old blood pressure results from 2023.
I was able to donate fine at the end of last month; That was less than a week ago. Now they won't even take me.

I already don't have ANYTHING going for me.
And now I find out the storage unit rental person LIED TO ME about getting the second month free.
The person who called about the autopayment not going through - because my bank account is still negative - said there was no such promotion at that time.
