The government is asking for public comments on whether banks should be able to deny you from buying legal goods at their own whim (i.e. how they're cracking down on art)
Tell them you don't want to be told how to spend your money

The House Committee Meeting was heavily in favor of these various censorship/surveillance bills
We need now, more than ever, to counter the rhetoric that these bills are "popular" and demand our reps oppose them!

that first infographic was small cuz i posted it from my phone so here's a bigger one
In the light of recent Subscribestar situation I think it's a good time to dust off this post from a while ago. Still very much on point.
We are almost to our first goal ($300) for this bundle!
Shares much appreciated!
thinking abt ocshipping is like being inflicted with 5 poison dmg per second while also healing 5hp per second
im a multishipper in the sense that if the meals prepared well enough i can get behind pretty much anything
This is literally me, I'll eat any meal that I find appetising.
Ahhh... Miriam-Webster. They're the good guys. They came through for us when sites like dictionary dot com turned out evil. When Wordle moved to the TERF rag. Time to finish one of their delightful daily puzzles...
"image generated by AI"
*throws literally everything in the garbage*
affirmations for the artists and the sickos. you will not feel bad about using references or 3d models in a time when the most rat faced soulless tech ceos are burning billions of dollars and trees for a slop machine that they will call art with their whole fucking chest
Using AI for your art references not only gives you a skewed & inaccurate view of the world, it also puts resource providers like myself & all these awesome people out of work!
Using REAL photo references is what levels up your art AND supports the stock/resource community! β€οΈπͺ
the lengths blizzard entertainment went to in order to ruin consumer trust in order to make a dollar should be studied because what the fuck happened. no seriously what the fuck happened

Six years ago WHO declared COVID-19 a pandemic. Despite tens of millions of deaths, the world has not sufficiently addressed the ongoing impacts of COVID-19, and we are more vulnerable to future pandemics due to anti-science officials leading government agencies around the world.
hard not to read all this age verification and censorship shit as our deeply reactionary government got the faintest whiff that an unchecked internet severely interferes with their ability to propagandize and decided it had to die

You see this? This is exactly why I had to go off HRT.
Do you understand how sad and terrifying it is to make these life choices? To have to think about these things daily? To worry about your safety ALL THE TIME?
We just want to live our lives in peace.
Three immutable facts:
1. Mainstream media avoids platforming trans people
2. Everyday Trans+ voices, speaking about their own lives, humanise a deeply marginalised community the British press has spent years vilifying
3. Stephanie Lynette is kick ass

People will not realize the impact the SubStar bans and so on will have until it starts hitting their own personal tastes and interests, but increasingly what's happening is the narrowing of new pornographic content into a more vanilla direction. And then even that will narrow further.
Reminder that the only time Mastercard has flinched is when outrage was directed at them. Attacking platforms like SubscribeStar for Visa/Mastercard's extralegal censorship is exactly the deflection they want.
The Internet as we know it right now, is very much in danger. The things you are doing here now, in this space, may be locked off from you for no reason. And these big tech companies? They can't WAIT to restrict you.
We can't sit by and let out of touch politicians and big companies take this space

Dessin représentant une femme (long cheveux noirs, visage rond, sourcils joints et petite buche rouge, dans un style de khatoon) qui pleure en levant les bras au ciel. Un oiseau de la paix (avec le symbole de la paix sur le dos) vole parmi les bombes qui pleuvent du ciel et les explosions. Il y a écrit "PRAY FOR MY PEOPLE" et "STOP WAR IN IRAN". Le dessin est entièrement en noir, blanc, rouge et vert.

I mean we've been in a five alarm constitutional crisis since Jan 20 2025. But yeah, this will add to it.
Our government tried to do the Bay of Pigs with even fewer, stupider guys and I canβt even enjoy it properly
