Of course the one time we need to use #Zelle it's down.

On a related note, is anyone working on something like FediPay to replace Zelle, #PayPal, #Venmo, and other terrible means of moving money around? I won't use most of those services, myself, for a variety of reasons.

More shelves were put up today in our kitchen-to-be in the #vulpibus. Cable ties, hooks and drilling holes, my beloved go-to method for a quick fix while we are still getting everything sorted out and have no money.

Speaking of which, #mutualaid we are still in need of another $910 ASAP this week to get on top of several issues and be in a better position to handle upcoming bills. Let's make our situation better so we can get more done for everyone @vulpinelabs !

And no we're not some fucking bot accounts trying to cry crocodile tears to scam you out of cash. If you want to trace where your currency went, DM us and we will show you how we spend it.
