In addition to payment processing, our refusal to prohibit legal adult content makes it incredibly difficult for us to get certain types of insurance. (Like, more than one carrier has literally told us “we can’t write insurance for somebody falling and hurting themselves in your office because you won’t prohibit adult content on your servers.” Oh, fuck off!)
The fuck? That's utterly insane.
don't leave out the best part!
Also, the Fair Access to Banking Act (FABA) is currently in the US Senate and would prohibit banks and payment processors from putting this type of pressure on businesses engaged in legal activity. It was introduced and co-sponsored by 43 Republican Senators big mad about alleged bias against conservative businesses. If you’re in the US, please encourage your elected representatives to support it, if not because it would really help this sort of thing then because irony is an important part of a good, nutritious breakfast.
EDIT: see replies below; apparently it specifically excludes "adult" stuff :c

On the Calculation of Volume, 2. By Solvej Balle, translated by Barbara Haveland.
As your story progresses, you are still stuck repeating the 18th of November, endlessly, and now more than a year later, you are working to find a rhythm to the (non) seasons as they pass, and find a place in (non) time as an increasingly shadowy life continues around you…or are you the shadow?

Making Cholent sexy at Melbourne's oldest synagogue
Every Thursday night, a Modern Orthodox synagogue in Melbourne that was recently targeted in an antisemitic arson attack becomes Rintel's Diner, serving Jewish comfort food like cholent, challah and borscht to Melbourne's kosher-keeping Jews and hips…Talia Slonim (Haaretz)
Most of this morning, I'll be at Fisher Building for orthotics fittings on a new left night brace being made & to get some minor repairs on one of my long leg braces.
I'll be talking to my orthotist about the need to return to getting heel lifts built onto my right boots because I am pretty sure that my leg length differential(from initial polio illness/paralysis) has increased over the years. It would also help my back hurt less & allow me to walk for longer periods, by getting this leg length differential dealt with.

"Because of the increasingly intolerable situation in #Gaza & the diminishing prospect of a #peace process towards a Two State Solution, now was the right time to move this position forward."
