judgmental farmer: why the heck did ya name yer dang horse Mayo, son?
my horse Mayo: *neighs*
What the fuck?
well pardner, I named my horse Mayo because horses are inclined to neigh, and “Mayo neighs” sounds like “mayonnaise” which is my favorite condiment. this kind of complex humor is hard work but so is farmin’, and I get a good chuckle out of it. that’s just the kinda farmer I am
for scrolling to the bottom and ‘contacting’ there, if email is more your thing.
Call script because phone calls are harder to ignore than emails:
“Hi, I’m calling to tell you that the reports you received of sexually abusive content on Steam and itch.io are fraudulent and were made by religious extremist groups.
As a [insert company] customer I’m expressing my discontent and requesting that you rescind your demands to these platforms.”
Just to clarify, there’s a bill that would STOP credit card companies from controlling who’s allowed to spend money on porn or “risque” (read: queer) content. If you don’t think big business should be able to tell you what to spend your own damn money on, call your senators and reps to let them know! It’s the Fair Access to Banking Act, H.R.987 in the House, S.410 in the Senate.
Banks and credit cards should not be in the business of making moral judgments about what their customers spend their money on. Their job is to facilitate transactions, period. If it’s not illegal, then they should have no say on who buys guns or porn or junk food or any other thing somebody might decide is objectionable.
this is an american bill about american companies that, as usual, effects people worldwide. if you’re statesian, here’s a chance to make something decent of it- put pressure on your politicians to pass this bill and protect queer porn and art, especially transfeminine porn and art!
