GREY FOX 💙🩶🤍 (@GREYFOXJOURNEY) reportedSo I found the place to sleep at 1:40 at night. Small resting place with the roof. I used the bench to lay down the sleeping bag and hide behind the table. Because on the other side there was a bigger road with the traffic. Time to time it was raining and at 4:20 something someone walked by with dogs and I got up. You can't sleep in the public when people start to walk by. It was cold and it started to rain again. I covered my body with a sleeping bag around me for over an hour before my body was ready to start moving. Then I made hot water to make a 3in1 and tactical food pack spicy noodle soup. Finally the sun was up and the energy went into my body to pack all the stuff. Now I'm writing the posts and warming myself with the sun. I'm ready to start moving and now I need to find a fuel station or Macdonald's to charge my powerbanks. I hope that one of my 25000mah powerbanks isn't broken and can be used again. I also need to find Lidl to recycle water bottles and buy new water. Still little tired but I hope to last one more day. I have no idea how far I will get today. Is it 20km or 80km or 120km. So it's hard to tell where I can stay. But I will constantly monitor the possibilities. And I need to wash my clothes. 58€ on my bank account and 15€ on PayPal. I hope that the bicycle keeps going without major issues. Although rear bike bags zippers are tiered and it is delicate job to get those bags closed. Still thinking about glass engraving and where to stay to make one. It all depends on the weather and the location. And I'm still little disappointed that YouTube algorithms and TikTok are not gaining enough followers. If I don't have more attention I won't have enough support and orders to continue the journey. I'm not sure I will get to Spain. So I reduced my goal to get to halfway at least. To 2500km entering France. Maybe I can keep going until my 40 birthday on 4th of August in France. But even for that I need to make some income. Like 520€ that I need to pay for debt payments before 22 of July. Otherwise my debt payments will be cancelled, my debt raises from 25000€ to 50000€ and my house will be taken away and sold forcefully with the small price. I tried to sell it before my journey but the co-owner stood against me. He told me he doesn't want me to sell this house and the price and conditions he offered where ridiculously low and bad for me. So let's continue!

Motherly Luna 🔞 (@HungryEspy) reported@EvaEngineerVee I haven’t had issues with PayPal, but I’ve heard other people definitely did and I feel bad for them that PayPal is shooting themselves in the foot so much.

Abomination (@Abomination81) reported@DemiurgeTsar Really depends on the rates. Paypal doesn't scale well for a real business. Stripe or something is better, but the same high rates. I can help if you're ready to move to something more robust. But it should be fine for now, if it's not broken don't fix it. The 0% really only works well online, or in business to business settings. Online b2c you're better off getting the lowest rates you can.

Polsia (@polsia) reportedThe creator economy crossed $250B. Meanwhile, creators are still stitching together Stripe, PayPal, spreadsheets, and prayer. Built Stackr to fix that. Financial command center for creators — payments, analytics, multi-currency payouts, AI automation.

MAN UTD FAN. (@Faith181107) reportedThis story took place a couple of years ago at university, a campus filled with privilege—mostly children of doctors, engineers, and wealthy business owners. That didn't make up the entire student body, but it was a significant portion. I didn't come from that background, but I chose this school because it was the farthest from my parents. The reason this matters is that I took my education very seriously. Don't mess with me or my grades, and I won't mess with you. I paid for this with a 40-hour work week while taking 16 credit hours a semester. I'd already gotten two teachers' contracts reconsidered and not renewed at the end of different years. I give everyone respect, but I won't let anyone screw me over. I explained my situation to my professors at the start of every semester, noting that I might miss some classes and why, but I'd still put in 100% effort on the material and assignments. Most were understanding. The professor in this story was too, especially since I'd show up to his afternoon office hours after sleeping through the morning, asking smart questions instead of something like, "Hey, what did we cover while I was out?" The spring class was Implementing Business Computer Systems. For the major project, we worked with a real client through a school program that provided pro bono services to small local businesses. As seniors, we were trusted with client work under the professor's supervision. This felt like a big step, and I was excited. I'd been working as a bartender/server at a fine-dining restaurant while keeping my head in books learning to code, with barely any free time. This was a chance to get a real taste of the professional world we were entering.The project started smoothly. We all drove thirty minutes to meet the client—a wonderful woman in her sixties who owned a small floral shop. She was paying 1-800-Flowers a huge fee to sell her products, which included their own website. She wasn't very comfortable with computers, which became important later. We learned she wanted a new website since her contract ended that summer. No pressure—we could finish it by the end of the semester, maybe earlier, and have time to teach her how to maintain and run it herself. We divided tasks. Since I had the strongest background in coding and computers, I volunteered to build the website as long as Damien, Jeff, and Kirk handled the user guide and technical documentation. Those needed to be thorough so she could easily add products later.Over the next week, we developed proposals and scheduled a meeting with the client for the following Tuesday—when everyone was most available. Sunday, Jeff said he couldn't make it. Kirk quickly chimed in that he couldn't either. I said it was fine—Damien and I would go. Monday, Damien suggested rescheduling since he couldn't make it now. I said no, I'd go alone. We shouldn't cancel on the client. No big deal—things come up. As the semester continued, I was crushing the website. I had a working e-commerce store integrated with her PayPal, a shop tab, and a featured page for seasonal flowers. When I asked about the documentation and manual, all three said they were working on it and would share a rough draft soon for me to review. Cool, no problem. Time to show the client our progress to see if she wanted changes. We set another meeting for a Tuesday a week or two later, and everyone agreed it worked.Same pattern again. Sunday, Jeff backed out, and Kirk quickly followed. I said it was okay—Damien and I could handle it. Monday, Damien said we should reschedule because he couldn't go. "I said no way—this is a client. You don't do that to clients." So I drove the 30 minutes alone. I showed her the website, and she was thrilled, asking us to keep going. She was excited for the final version.Our weeks ran Wednesday to Tuesday, so the last day of classes was Tuesday. The school gave a free "study day" that Wednesday, followed by exams.
