All I can offer is a few kind words, a thought, and a prayer. Hold on there, Tessa, and may God guide you and strengthen you. Thank you for your words of kindness - I haven't had time to read them properly lately, but I appreciate them nonetheless!
Dear Tessa, I send you much love and emotional support, even if it's through the airwaves and not in person or in the form of money. Please know you are loved, not just by me but by many. Your work is an invaluable source and carries much meaning and love. Big virtual hug!!
Dear Heart, You are fighting the good fight. Not only against the AI who has been set against you, but against the Demiurge itself that is doing a full-court press (basketball reference) against not only you, but all of us who stand against the lie that is his fallen world. The digital space is owned by evil working against us. And in your difficult personal life, that is a different realm but set up to give you hardships as it tries to break your spirit. But you, Tessa, have a strong and beautiful spirit and it will not break you. You are beautiful and perfect and you always do your best. The God Above All Gods loves you beyond measure.
Just became a founding member. Please know you are not alone. We appreciate all you do and need you in the fight. Hang in there and know you are loved.
If you haven’t already, consider setting up “Buy Me A Coffee” or some other one-time gift & tip method that allows people to give “any amount,” like I’ve done with links at the top of my home page. I’ve been trying to make changes to Substack pay options to include one-time “single pay” donations, but our managers (who need to be fired) have been resistant for no logical reason. Many people dislike having to keep track of subscriptions. But if multiple options for tips & gifting are available, it should increase your odds of receiving a dollar here and there, and it does add up over time.
Sending love and strength your way. I love reading what you have to say......it always makes me think twice about the hard heartedness I feel so many days. Hang in there Tessa!
I just upgraded to paid subscriber. I really cherish your well written and thought provoking content please keep going!!
A note on a pratical matter. I tried a couple of times before to become a paid member by using the IDEAL payment option, but there seems a flaw in the system, the amount showed was: €0.01
Hi Tessa, I'm sorry you are facing difficulties. Vexations are very hard. You keep telling yourself you should be better and not get so upset, but you still do. This is true for me, even for very little things. It sounds like your difficulties are daunting, and for that I'm truly sorry. May good financial opportunities come your way! I pray for you every day, that God's Grace be with you, and...that you find Jesus or at least not be so mad at him ( the history of Christianity and all that). Sorry about the last part, but it's who I am and what I think about God. Anyway, only God's Grace can truly lead all of us to him and may your path be filled with love, even in hard difficulties.
Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy Kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our dally bread and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.
Hello there 👋You can use paysend or Profee charges very little they have been there for a few years I use it for small transfer and payments, here are the link
Profee only needs your phone number and an email to login. The transfers can be made from and to bank cards and bank accounts, the fees are Minimun and the small payment you can make is less than 10 dollars.. Mostly instantaneous, around the world in many currencis, is a platform to transfer money much less intrusive and efficient than PayPal and much much cheaper, paypal can block any account any moment for not even reason. I have use Profee for small quantities for a couple of years now, happy with their customer service too. Have a look even for you in the future.. Take care
You are right sorry, :( Profee does not seems work from Canada.
I just check paysend, I do have an online account for a couple of years now and I have had no measure problems yet my " numbers" are small 😂 my transfers small too.. I do not remember if you need to go through all the ID, I think if you do not want to create an account online you can transfer the money without having to go though identification. The app is great once you get familiarize but simple but you can do it online Here is the link again..
As far as I know, I am a subscribed reader. I was unaware that things have been so difficult for you. I will maintain my subscription. Gmail doesn't censor your content, hopefully.
Hi Tessa, I've been meaning to re-subscribe. I'll do that soon, maybe with a different account, as the card I was using for Substacks ran out of $. I miss the Friday philosopher's club, I looked forward to those beautiful conversations when I was able to make it.
You are so loved and appreciated!! This city, and world, feels less like a dystopian nightmare just knowing you and a few others are here ...
Tessa. Yours is one of the best Substacks. I'm so impressed whenever I read one. I do not have any money. I am in crisis as well. but I urge anyone who can, to help you. Of all the Substacks I read, I am so impressed wihenever I read one of Tessa's. Tessa has been fighting the robots for a long time, and fighting well.
All I can offer is a few kind words, a thought, and a prayer. Hold on there, Tessa, and may God guide you and strengthen you. Thank you for your words of kindness - I haven't had time to read them properly lately, but I appreciate them nonetheless!
I share each and every one of these sentiments, and whish I was in the position to provide anything more than moral support.
Thank you for the love, Dominic!
Thank you, Adam!

Tessa, dear heart, money I do not have. Love I do. Feel free to message me with your concerns and let's talk. I will pray for you.
Thank you for the love, Desert Nomad!!! xo
Sending love and strength your way. I love reading what you have to say......it always makes me think twice about the hard heartedness I feel so many days. Hang in there Tessa!
Thank you, Patti!!
Hi. I worked as a therapist for 25 years. If you would like someone to support you, I would be happy to. Gratis. In gratitude for what you do.

Hugs! It is frustrating to be censored and can make the world seem a lonely place.
Thank you Jennifer, hugs back to you!! xo

Oh, and forgive us of our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. God keeps us humble.
Tessa, supporting through Substack doesn't offer Paypal payments, only credit cards. Do you have a Paypal account?
Hello there 👋You can use paysend or Profee charges very little they have been there for a few years I use it for small transfer and payments, here are the link
The payment can be made from accounts aswell
https://paysend.com/
https://www.profee.com/
I just want to keep it simple and stick to what I have now, that being paypal. Way to many accounts to manage as is.
Profee only needs your phone number and an email to login.

I have use Profee for small quantities for a couple of years now, happy with their customer service too. Have a look even for you in the future.. Take care
Just looked at Profee, looks like it's only for Europeans to send money anywhere in the world. I can receive money in Canada but can't send.
You are right sorry, :( Profee does not seems work from Canada.

Thanks for the follow-up, Tessa and I figured it out.
Thanks for the info, and agreed on Paypal, it's shit, and evil.

Thank you, Luc!!! I appreciate it! Gmail often censors, alas. Hopefully not all the time but censor, it does!
Yes, it censors some stuff, but not all! I receive your essays, and read them. - Luc

Thank you Jacob!!! You are so kind!!
I've been in a hole, but today I went for a walk in nature.
Being hit in the face with lush vibrant green, red, orange, pink, blue, the smell of life, the sound of birds, makes it extremely hard to be sad.
I hope you can take some time to take a walk and breathe it in. Life is amazing!
Grey cities are depressing by nature, so living in one can make life feel gray and sad.
But it's not!
Furthermore, your words are invaluable (sorry I got no cash, but lots of appreciation). Your insights are wise, and your vibe has been a godsend.
Take pride in being a being of light.
You are amazing!
