The Issue

In today’s digital age, the internet serves as a refuge and a means of expression for many marginalized communities. These individuals rely on VPNs to freely express themselves online without fearing persecution from governing bodies that seek to limit basic human rights. The recent enactment of the Online Safety Act on July 25th in the UK threatens this freedom by infringing on user privacy and forcing individuals to submit government identification to third-party entities, many of which have questionable track records in handling sensitive personal information.

I don’t want you guys to panic for me, but I think I messed up, not over a troll or anything, but I really screwed the pooch this time.

You know how I’m not supposed to talk to scammers on DA?

Well I think I fell for a DA user who’s account was hacked, they claimed that they reported my account thinking it was spam, they told me to do this and that to save it from suspension(or worse) and now I can’t get back on DA after talking to someone on Discord even though I stopped using it.

Here’s a user on Tumblr who went through something similar last year(OP recovered her account BTW) to give you an idea of what happened:

So yeah, long story short, I panicked and gave a hacker my account in an effort to protect said account from suspension. I’ve already reported to support and now I’m waiting for a reply from DA staff.

Y'know, to me “lost media” means “no known physical copies exist and it can’t be pirated anywhere”, not just “currently unavailable for streaming”

Be that as it may, it’s still a good idea to track down the physical copy of the unavailable media before it becomes lost, just like what happened to the Cartoon purge on HBO Max…yes, I’m still fucking angry about it and will continue to bitch about it forever.

Urgent help needed

I’m going through a really difficult phase right now. I’ve managed to clear my rent, but I’m staying with my parents and trying not to burden them further. Even basic expenses feel overwhelming. I have an entry-level job interview next Monday and I’m holding onto hope, but I’ll keep applying or start content creation around my gym journey if needed. My January gym fees are due, and from next month I’ll also be changing gyms. I urgently need support to get through this month. Any amount of help or even sharing this would mean the world to me. Thank you from my heart. 💛
