  2/ Back then I moderated a Minecraft server. Another server kept attacking ours, and our owner found out the guy was paying for the attacks with PayPal or Bitcoin. We sat in Skype trying to figure out what Bitcoin even was. I was too young to understand it, but it stayed in my head.

  @SarahisCensored We can get it shut down if you everyone contacts PayPal which they are using to get donations. With the proof you have it goes against the terms of service. Report it as fraudulent and show the funds are not intended for what it is stated. It will begin an investigation

  @at_temp Oh no, PayPal is that slow? 😭 By any chance, do you use Wise? I've heard it's pretty popular for international transfers, and I think the money usually arrives much faster than through PayPal.

  @PayPal I tried to contact them and got an AI chatbot that is broken and could only output "I'm sorry, I'm not able to help with that right now. Let me connect you with the right support to assist you further." but cannot actually connect me with anything. (2/3)

  @donkeylicker06 Next time pay on PayPal and if they don't send you something as agreed , ask PayPal for refund. Cash app are so stupid they don't issue refund even you clearly can prove that you got scammed

  @Spybef0rey0ubuy People are trolling and underestimating Mr. Burry way too much these days. They forget no matter people's opinion he's still a legendary Investor, Trader, and Contrarian Analyst. ADBE is a solid business which might be misunderstood by the market now but in a year the picture will paint itself. I don't personally like PayPal. One time I transferred $800 to my friend in Australia while visiting, and they charged me $60-70 in fees for it... So, from that moment I knew this business has a deep problem, and this happened in 2023 so no wonder the downfall.

  I don't actually have to do anything, in fact I've gone well beyond what's required of me to show my innocence I've posted old art, traditional art, layers, recorded my entire screen from start to finish, and even drawn with you guys on magma and you freaks still find new and exciting positions for the goalposts so actually instead, what *you* have to do is pull up with some actual ******* evidence and explain to me how I traced this video, and I will paypal you 500 bucks and issue a public apology but you won't, because you've got ******* nothing, and you know it, and everyone knows it maybe this tactic of vibes-based cancellation works on whatever bluesky tumblr ******** you're used to, but here in the real world you can't just throw around baseless accusations and dump the burden of proof onto the accuser punctuated by a passive aggressive "show them some kindness do better sweetie <3" bullshit we all know what you're doing and it doesn't work I am not some dancing ******* monkey here to participate in your gay little humiliation ritual, and I've already wasted more than enough time trying to meet you scumbags halfway, so either stand on business with some receipts or **** off

  @DissentFu Start PayPal while sleeping on friends couches because no money. Start a co when you sell PP to make rockets. Get to point after many failures, 1 more meant shutting down business. Start Tesla, Boring Co tunneling, Starlink sats & Neuralink which help the disabled.

  @PayPal The fact that you have a link for help but the WORST Customer Service is beyond comical, your service blocks and restricts accounts on simple transcribe but allows 1000's of purchases with no limitations, trying to resolve issues is useless with this service

  @oeoeoeoeoe_ @NobodyCaresEvr @NYCMayor Wrong again! His father had stakes in a mine, he didn’t own it. He got his money by selling PayPal and then mad incredibly risky loans to keep SpaceX afloat when it almost went bankrupt. Tone down your envy, it’s a bad color on you.

  James Jnr (@chijames__) reported 46 minutes ago

  Elon Musk wasn’t born a trillionaire. He sold a game he made as a kid. He taught himself programming. He built Zip2 and sold it. He co-founded PayPal and sold it. Instead of retiring rich, he put most of his money into Tesla and SpaceX when both companies were struggling. At one point, he was so close to losing everything that Tesla and SpaceX were on the brink of collapse. Most people see the trillion dollars. Few people see the years of risk, failure, criticism, sleepless nights and near-bankruptcy that came before it. The lesson isn’t that you should chase money. The lesson is that extraordinary wealth often follows extraordinary value creation, relentless persistence and the willingness to bet on yourself when nobody else will. Build skills. Solve problems. Take calculated risks. Stay in the game longer than everyone else. That’s how fortunes are made.

  @Vykosa_AD @SerasReborn Deflection. The dispute led Paypal to terminating the account. If he makes a new one, they have his information logged so the new account could potentially get flagged and terminated too. You got an artist’s paypal account taken down and now ur trying to change the narrative.

  I don't like telling my personal problems in the internet but today is pushing me to the edge yet again. For the past 2 weeks, I see my folks fighting back n forth and I try to distract on myself with labor work but I couldn't take it anymore. I crashed out for the 4th or 5th time this week. All I wanna do is commissions but I was always pulled over things that doesn't serve me than BUT FOR THEM. I had a huge *** argument and it was very verbal then it became physical. Honestly, Who the hell can function like this? I'm done pretending that everything in home is okay, plus I'm planning to run off temporarily. I want to have peace of mind. As much as I don't wanna beg in Twitter, I feel ashamed and embarrassed... So if you're kind enough, Please donate on my PayPal or Gcash, Anything helps.. I can't stop crying while I'm typing this, I feel utterly pathetic

  @CTVNews Oh, Elon only succeeded because of “government help”? Spare us the tears. This is the same script they wheel out for any innovator who dares outperform the status quo. SpaceX didn’t get “handouts”—it won fixed-price contracts by actually delivering reusable rockets that slashed launch costs from $100M+ to pennies on the dollar. NASA was begging for alternatives after decades of Boeing/Lockheed grift and Shuttle disasters. That $1.6B? Earned through results, not cronyism. SpaceX now flies more missions than the rest of the world combined, rescues astronauts, and builds Starship while SLS burns billions in pork. Tesla’s $465M DOE loan? Repaid early with interest—unlike the solar flops and EV zombies that defaulted. EV tax credits? Buyer incentives that accelerated an industry Tesla invented from near-zero. Regulatory credits? That’s what happens when you disrupt dinosaurs too slow to meet standards they lobbied for. GM, Ford, and Chrysler got bailouts, tariffs, and endless subsidies for decades of mediocrity. Where’s their hit piece? Elon risked everything—near bankruptcy multiple times, sleeping on factory floors—while building PayPal, Tesla, SpaceX, Neuralink, Boring, and xAI. CNN/CTV cherry-pick taxpayer “help” (which every major company navigates) but ignore the trillions in value created: reusable spaceflight, EVs forcing legacy auto to adapt, Starlink connecting remote communities, and pushing humanity multi-planetary. This isn’t journalism; it’s salty obituary for a dying narrative. Government didn’t make Elon. Elon exposed how inefficient government-dependent incumbents truly are. Cry harder, legacy media. The future isn’t subsidized by your tears. 🚀

  Right now you have... whatever’s in your bank account. So quick question: Can you PayPal me (or anyone reading this) $5,000 today? No? Not even $100? Not $20 so some kid can eat tonight? You can’t even solve one person’s problems with your current money, but with a trillion you’d magically fix the entire planet? Bro, the math doesn’t change just because you add more zeros.

  @greg_travis @TomChivers @cafreiman Kk, no worries. My English sometimes fails me. PayPal solved major issues in almost-instant monetary transfers across the globe (in its day), allowing many small organizations to operate more fluently, small businesses to build outside their regional location, reduced bank xfer delays also internationally (yes, it wasn't Elon alone, yes there are other providers, yes PayPal has fees too, yes the money can get held, yes there may be fraud, ..)

  @AllyFogg Brivael Le Pogam 📷 @brivael Translated from French I've got the ultimate, infallible, instant IQ test. If a guy hits me with that Elon Musk emerald mine line, it's over. NPC confirmed. The brain shut down somewhere in 2019 and nobody's come to flip the lights back on since. Because look at what the actual file says. Not the meme, the file. In 1986, Errol trades a small plane (a Cessna) for a share of emeralds produced by three little mines owned by a guy in Zambia. No company, no contract, no deed, nothing. An informal, off-the-books deal that collapses in 1989. The same year Elon lands in Canada with $2,500 in his pocket and ends up with $100,000 in student debt. And they want me to believe that funded Tesla and SpaceX nearly twenty years later. Emeralds traded in the bush in the '80s that magically turn into reusable rockets in 2008. The real seed capital? Zip2 then PayPal. Documented, public, verifiable in thirty seconds. So when someone repeats the emerald mine bit, they're not talking about Elon. They're talking about themselves. Go read his bio, and the hoax jumps right out at you. You've got exactly four possibilities. Either it's a moron who's never checked a source in their life. Or it's a corrupt type who knows and lies anyway. Or it's a lazy *** who copy-pasted a meme without lifting a finger. Or it's just a guy who just rolled a fat joint and is regurgitating whatever's floating on his TL. In every case, it's not an argument. It's a confession.

  dicentra 🪔 (@dicentra33) reported 58 minutes ago

  @Silverfj13 @Badhombre His first business, Zip2, was just him coding all day in the office building where he and his brother lived. They showered at the YMCA and ate value meals. Then he sold the company and started another, and coded into existence the prototype software that became PayPal. He didn't invent the electric car but he oversaw the manufacturing process to build the things. He was on the floor every day — not fiddling with spreadsheets in an office — helping his engineers problem-solve. With SpaceX he started by reading up on rocket tech and was up to his elbows in the process. Again, he was on the floor every day while someone else did the spreadsheets. He's able to attract and inspire the best engineers on the planet. He's got unparalleled VISION. The engineers trust him because he is a detail-obsessed nerd like they are. Elon clears out the nonsense underbrush that clutters other businesses. He's one of them, not a suit hired to herd them like cats. Never invented or created. Cripes, your narcissism is showing.

  @DissentFu Musk created value, PayPal, EVs, reusable rockets,that employs people and grew the economy. Your situation has nothing to do with him. Blaming billionaires is just cope to avoid owning your choices. At 52 you can still fix habits and skills, but resentment guarantees you’ll stay exactly where you are.

  @Steve9418 They have issues with PayPal apparently so can't use that lol. Sending the money is an option though. They don't have family they trust either unfortunately.
