For your convenience, the Pride and Prejudice live-posting super-thread 📚
A drawing of Elizabeth Bennet, a lovely young woman with her long hair tied up nearly under a ribbon and wearing what is most likely a neo-classically inspired dress, looking pensive, two letters in her hand. Meanwhile Darcy, a handsome but stern-looking fellow, looks longingly at her. Also there is me, a little gremlin in big round glasses, skulking about in the background and hoping that they kiss. 

The accompanying text reads “Trung reads Pride and Prejudice for the first time, somehow.”

RIP Shinichiro Sato, the drummer for The Pillows. Most people know them for their contributions to FLCL, but they were one of the most consistent rock bands in history. 20 studio albums over 30+ years, not one of them bad. Here's four of my favorites. Living Field especially is an all-timer.

I wouldn't say I'm massively into phones or anything but I sketched this out of frustration bc why are there no modern phones with these features, it would be so perfect and I'm mad the only ones are old and slow

ANTI-CENSORSHIP CHEAT SHEET

WHY?
Visa, Mastercard, Stripe & Paypal have been censoring free speech & legal business online for TOO LONG. Most recent targets are Steam & Itch.io, but they have also pressured websites like Pixiv, Patreon, Fansly, Onlyfans & MORE for years, applying draconian standards for what kind of adult/pornographic content their users can host & sell.
If we as consumers & creators want to regain ground on this issue, we have to make our voice heard.

HOW?
BOMBARD WITH PHONE CALLS
Collective Shout, the org that lobbied to have Steam & Itch.io change their TOS, did so with only around 1000 phone calls. Visa & MC have backed down from pressuring Onlyfans to remove adult content entirely due to public backlash. Clogging phone lines for an extended period, over a month at least, will almost guarantee that these companies will have to pay attention to the backlash.

this list is not exhaustive, but some contact points for the 4 targets are:

VISA:
(US + Can): +1 800-847-2911
US selection for operator: 1-1-2 or 1-1-3

MASTERCARD:
(US): +1 800-307-7309
US selection for operator: 1-1-2-2-2-1
(Outside US): 1-636-722-7111

STRIPE:
(HQ): +1 888 963-8955
(France): +33 805-11-19-67
Email: complaints@stripe.com

PAYPAL:
(US): +1 888 221-1161
(outside US): 1-402-935-2050
Customer Service: +1 877-569-1116

TRY TO HIT ALL 4 TARGETS PER DAY
This is only going to have an effect if as many people possible call EVERY DAY for as long as possible.

THIS IS A MARATHON, NOT A RACE.
If you can, it is also a good idea to try to spread the word to organizations & groups that can either actively combat these huge companies legally, or can spread news, in a manner supportive of this movement, more effectively than your average person

examples of organizations:
ACLU
Canadian Civil Liberties Association local legislators & government representatives

examples of spreading the news:
local newspapers
special interest publications
video game streamers

Do both please. Annoy them AND do it their way. You have to tie up their phones AND flood their inboxes. I once worked a phone job that employed a similar tactic in times of trouble. It’s very useful to clog their lines in every possible way. Causes huge disturbances to workflow and forces attention

With how many layoffs we’ve had over the past several years, remote work should be the default. Requiring relocation at this point is unreasonable for the risk that we’re just going to get laid off two months, six months, a year in.
