Fortunately, banks no longer just ask 'did you make that transaction' they want to make sure you weren't scammed into making that transaction and 5mins after their call will give away all your money anyway.

This is an honest to goodness life saving movement and I cannot be happier banks are adopting it

Unfortunately, it meant I had to have the most embarrassing financial call of my life

-

Me: Ah yeah I was just trying to tip a tumblr blog

Cash: right and were you directed there by a Facebook link? An Instagram advert?

Me: no I was just on tumblr...on purpose

-

Caah: and this person asked you for money?

Me: oh no they just had a funny story, which happened to be about money and I thought, "wouldn't it be funny if I tipped them"

-

Me: * covering a reblog by reblog update on the adventures my mutual was having *

Cash: okay I don't think that can actually happen though..

Me: It might not have, but i was happy to tip them just because it was funny

-

Cash: and how well do you think you know this person?

Me: *considers explaining how much I know about a beloved mutual without ever knowing their name or face* ... I have no idea who this person is

so many responses of “its nice that you’re privileged enough to be able to steal from Target willy nilly!” and that’s not at all what this is about. like, yeah, shoplifting and loitering and graffiti and breaking the rules is, obviously, part of “do crime”. but they’re not parts you have to do.

would you help someone get an abortion where it was illegal?

would you help a trans friend get healthcare that had been criminalized?

would you shelter someone fleeing persecution, even if the law said not to?

would you help a gay couple stay together when the state decided their relationship was unlawful?

instead, would you report someone else for breaking the law? will you snitch on your hungry neighbors for stealing food? on your homeless neighbors for sleeping where they’re able?

Here the people will decide which are which.

Polls are posted in Pokedex order, with the exception of any requests

Request Rules:

1. Check to see if it has already been requested. If you search the name of the Pokemon on this blog, it should appear if it has already been requested. If you want, you can also check the results document linked below

2. No Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, Sinnoh, or Unova requests. Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, and Sinnoh have been completed and Unova is currently underway for pokedex-order polls

3. Only one request per ask. You are allowed to request as many pokemon as you like, but send them in seperate asks

4. If you request any non-standard poll (which would include requesting things that are not pokemon, or having options besides "creature, guy, thing") then that poll will be saved and posted on April 1st EDIT: Now that April 1st 2026 has passed, requests like this will either be saved for the end of all normal posting, or April 1st 2027, whichever comes first

5. Variants of Pokemon (mega, regional, etc) are allowed for requests as long as they have a different shape/design from the original Pokemon. (So shiny and dynamax Pokemon are not valid, for example)
