hey thanks, I heard you uttered my name while I wasn't around thus making me real.

ah... your secret technique... in normal circumstances, such a bullet would have no effect on me, but you certainly knew that, my rival... and so, cleverly, you accelerated it with a gun

they teach you the golden rule, treat others how you want to be treated, but in a pinch you can apply the silver rule (be kinda selfish because you’ve earned it) or even the bronze rule (manipulate others purely for your benefit).

hello! i've just read your post about making websites think you're somewhere else (which is really great, thank you for that), and i have a question regarding bank accounts. sorry if you've already answered this/something like this, the tumblr search function is awful

if you know, is there any benefit to setting up a virtual bank account (e.g. with Starling, etc.) instead of travelling to another country to do so? and would having a uk address associated with the virtual account negate it's usefulness?

i'm trying to do some research but i have been incredibly lucky to never have to think about it before now, so i really have no idea what i even need to be searching for. any insight you could provide, or even just a better idea of what i should be looking up regarding the above, would be greatly appreciated

hey! virtual banking with western companies hasn't been relevant to me, so unfortunately, i can't be specific. i'll go into detail under the cut on how i arrived at that part of the post though, maybe it'll give you a better idea of where to look

tl;dr you should be fine but payment intermediaries like paypal might raise up a stink. idk how paypal & co determine which country's restrictions to apply - you could contact their support and ask! or, you could try asking your virtual bank how much your billing address will matter; they might know. a cursory search hasn't yielded much for me either, so i'd go and start bothering people. i'm out of my depth with western banking tho, might be blanking on something easier 😅

maybe you could even wing it and name a random address in their own country, that's what russians do when making accounts in georgia lol. but you'll have to find out how they validate billing addresses, if at all.

i'm also not sure how necessary it is to worry about bank accounts for uk/western users (yet :^) ). y'all know your situation best. i detailed all of that bc everything starts yelling if a single dust speck of russian origin lands on their website, so that's something we already have to contend with.

if anyone knows anything more helpful, please sound off in the notes!

basically, my setup is a single belarusian bank account with a virtual belcart (their own alternative to visa/mastercard) and a physical visa, and the account has a russian billing address. i had to show up to make that account. my visa card has worked perfectly while travelling abroad AND making online purchases BUT paypal throws up and dies when i attempt to link it. this is very inconvenient cause a lot of online shopping + donation websites hinge on these intermediaries, so i'm kinda free from the shackles of being a russian resident and kinda not.

now, paypal doesn't allow you to make an account if you're belarusian either. i've tried to make one with a non-russian non-belarusian phone number, and i succeeded, but it exploded when i tried to link my card - not because it was a belarusian bank, but because it had a problem with my billing address. this is how i inferred that particular tip, on top of it being common knowledge among russian tourists not to set your billing address to russia (too bad i learned that later lol).

so, to summarise: if you've determined that you definitely need a foreign bank account but virtual is your only option, that's much better than nothing. though if you've got an encroaching vacation or something and you can afford it physically/financially, it could be worth it to show up, provided you can't just lie to a virtual banking site to begin with

Hello everyone, if you can please share and donate to the Shehab family’s campaign to support them through displacement and famine. Sahar, her family of eight (five of whom are children), and extended family (three are children) need funds to survive as food, water, formula and baby products become more and more scarce and expensive. All donations will go towards evacuation funds, and to help them recover afterwards and build towards a brighter future once more. Please keep this family in your hearts and minds, and show them your kindness through sharing and donating, thank you. @danashehab is one of the accounts for the family who contacted and asked me to make this post for them.

Tags below the cut, let me know if you’d rather be removed.
