OFF TOPIC: This morning my debit card was declined and it wasn't because I'm over-drawn (it's early in the month and I actually have funds). I know what flagged this because it's happened at least four times already. Stripe or some credit card company has flagged one of my recurring monthly paid subscriptions to the dozen or so Substackers I make donations to.

My question: Why does this KEEP happening? Also, I wonder how many of my paid subscribers have had issues paying me? I know that some of the paid subscriptions I thought I generated are/were declined.

Anyway, my Spider Sense that "something" might be happening with Substack is still activated.

Now I've got to go to the bank and see if I can "approve" these recurring payments ... again.

A subscriber just emailed me with a funny anecdote to this story. It turns out this subscriber KNOWS the world's most famous Easter Bunny. They went to high school together!

This story from the UK Daily Mail gives us the identify of the Easter Bunny - an employee in the White House Communications Department!
