Look how scary I am! grr~

I am so scary, that the most cowardly, loser-ass, unfucked dipshits want to take my rights away!

Too bad I'm here to stay! Too bad I probably live in their dreams.

Government responded

This response was given on 6 October 2025

    Payment processors are able to choose who they process payments for, subject to any relevant requirements. The Government has no plans to intervene in those commercial decisions.

Read the response in full

The Government recognises the important role payments plays in supporting a resilient, diverse and growing economy. The Government is committed to ensuring that the UK’s payment system works for all, allowing businesses and customers to transact with confidence.

The Government recognises that it is important for businesses to have greater choice in the forms of payment that they can accept. The National Payments Vision, published in November 2024, set out the Government’s ambition for a world-leading payments ecosystem, where consumers and businesses have a choice of payment methods to meet their needs. A key part of this ambition is the continued development of Open Banking, which enables consumers to make purchases using a wider range of payment methods, including account-to-account payments, thereby increasing competition in the payments sector. HM Treasury is working closely with the financial services regulators to deliver these outcomes.

Decisions regarding which businesses payment processors contract with are a commercial matter, taking into account the relevant requirements on the firm. These decisions will be influenced by a variety of factors, and the Government has no plans to intervene in those commercial decisions.

I appreciate you thinking of me when you see horror community stuff, but I'm not planning on submitting anything to anywhere until November comes around. Really overworked myself this season on being in so many events and such

I drink alcohol occasionally, but there's no drive to have more
I smoke weed, but only if i can afford it
I've smoked tobacco, but stopped to save $
I love gambling, but always stick to my budget

If I can have empathy for those struggling with addiction, you have no excuse. You're just an asshole.

Our producer is in dire straits. He has sold all his musical gear. He is working full time after having his long term disability taken away (which he was on for previously breaking his neck/multiple spine surgeries)

And now he is trying to save his cat. Please help or share. Thank you

Bloodlines 2 is coming out in 17 days, and I'm worried that I haven't properly conveyed how excited I am for it.

... I am very excited for it.

Stop being afraid that they will come for you if you say or do anything "against" them.
They are coming for you anyway.

Hey, this is definitely not about anything in particular

But if I was streaming, right, and someone came into my community, and I didn't know who they were, but every single trans person said: "Astrid, ban them, they've done extraordinary harm to the trans community," I would just ban them.

It's just like saying "trans folks do not deserve the chance of achieving academic excellence, they are incapable of academic excellence."

Which is a wild and fucking unhinged string of hateful words to say.

I wanna see these institutions pushback. Stand up for your students' rights, EVERY ONE.

LRT is "Load Removed Time," and is a timing method where the Loads are removed for you by a Script that reads your game's memory variables and translates that info to Live split.
RivaTuner is a program that changes the frame rate of the game you are playing manually, through global hotkeys.

A figure reaching for a balloon. The Figure is titled 'Me, a Speedrunner' and the Balloon is entitled 'Switching to Linux.' In the bottom frame, it is the same image, but a pink figure is pulling the middle figure away from the balloon and is labeled 'LRT, RivaTuner, Global Hotkeys.' The Figure in the center is now sweating

But hey, if there is a way to do these things on Linux, I am listening. But my Linux friends seem to be stumped on them

I will not read your GenAI Book
I will not watch your GenAI Movie
I will not play your GenAI Game
I will not listen to your GenAI Artist

If nobody went into any effort to create the thing themselves, then it is definitely not worth my time or attention at all.

"Astrid, why aren't you more popular on Twitch?"

Get real. I am an indigenous transwoman satanist who does niche content like horror and speedruns and I am uncompromising on my presentation and format to a fault. I'm extremely proud of the community I built, and that's more important to me.

I'm sorry, but facts are facts, it will never be as popular as VTM (Vampire the Masquerade)

[that's a lie. VTM is barely popular in contrast most likely]
