there’s a war between Sucking and Fucking
i hate that i have to keep reminding people of this but if you are sending money to a sex worker for any service or content please do not put ANYTHING in the memo field unless told otherwise by the provider
don't try to be cute or funny with it, the best way to make them smile is by following directions 💕
Paypal, for one, will delete someone's account and steal their money if they catch a whiff of your transaction being in any way nsfw, DO NOT SAY SHIT, just silently send the money as you are told if you need to speak something regarding it do so via DIRECT MESSAGES and FAR from the program of the transaction
i would go as far as to say never to add notes to paypal transactions. i recently saw someone have their account frozen from buying anime vhs tapes, because the anime in question happened to have the word "persia" in the title.
you never know what kind of weird thing is going to trigger their algorithm, so just don't
It's been over a decade, but I'm still saddled with a lifetime ban from paypal and by extension venmo because one of my friends who was paying me back for buying him and his gf at the time dinner thought it would be funny to include "for sensual massage" in the notes section and not only did they not let the transaction go through they took back all the money anybody had EVER sent me via paypal, which thankfully wasn't much.
Clean the mold out of your reusable water bottle including the cap and straw
Mold poisoning will kill you and has a high chance of causing severe hallucinations and nightmares while it's doing it. My final message goodbye
Oh, hey, yea that's a good reminder! Wait a second tho
A year or so ago I saw someone who studies bacteria on food surfaces talking about how she never ever uses a water bottle for longer than 2 days without washing it with hot water and soap or running it through the dishwasher and I've become really adamant about it ever since. Everyone has enough water bottles to keep them cycling through the dishwasher and in use.
Also please don't die.
"you only deserve food and shelter if you contribute to society" says people living in countries where nobody's labor actually feeds or benefits their neighbors anymore but exclusively benefits the companies keeping the food and shelter behind the artificial paywalls
You're not nomads relying on each other to hunt and gather anymore, you're talking about stocking shelves for fucking wal marts
And even the oldest societies on earth all took care of the elderly or sick anyway
I feel like a good shorthand for a lot of economics arguments is "if you want people to work minimum wage jobs in your city, you need to allow minimum wage apartments for them to live in."
"These jobs are just for teenagers on the weekends." Okay, so you'll use minimum wage services only on the weekends and after school. No McDonald's or Starbucks on your lunch break.
"They can get a roommate." For a one bedroom? A roommate for a one bedroom? Or a studio? Do you have a roommate to get a middle-wage apartment for your middle-wage job? No? Why should they?
"They can live farther from city center and just commute." Are there ways for them to commute that don't equate to that rent? Living in an outer borough might work in NYC, where public transport is a flat rate, but a city in Texas requires a car. Does the money saved in rent equal the money spent on the car loan, the insurance, the gas? Remember, if you want people to take the bus or a bike, the bus needs to be reliable and the bike lanes survivable.
If you want minimum wage workers to be around for you to rely on, then those minimum wage workers need a place to stay.
You either raise the minimum wage, or you drop the rent. There's only so long you can keep rents high and wages low before your workforce leaves for cheaper pastures.
"Nobody wants to work anymore" doesn't hold water if the reason nobody applies is because the commute is impossible at the wage you provide.
