Just a reminder while this is a victory, it's not over yet until Discord completely gives up on the age verification nonsense. Don't resubcribe to Nitro immediately.

I don't have a lot to show for myself but I dabble in fantasy and robot stuff if that's anything!
@naomikritzer.bsky.social There's a pretty great Tumblr post about this: nitewrighter Mar 26 me: I don't get it. I thought I was doing a lot better than I was a few years ago. I'm like 10 times more on top of things than I used to be. How does everything feel terrible now? The Tiny Me in OSHA-approved Hi-Vis Gear Who lives in my brain and pulls all the levers: Boss, it's the fascism. You're completely gunked up with cortisol due to the fact that your entire daily life is now underscored with a haunting awareness of the rapid erosion of your rights, dignity, and any and all social safety nets, and you're also bearing witness to the most vulnerable people immediately being persecuted. This creates a natural stress response that basically means you're going to continue having memory and organizational problems, as well as emotional imbalances. Me: BUT I HAVE A BULLET JOURNAL AND I MEDIATE NOW. Tiny OSHA Me: BOSS, THE FASCISM.

I am once more on my hands and knees BEGGING for people to tag spoilers for the love of GOD why are we posting memes with major story spoilers for games that haven't even been out for TWO WEEKS YET
I know it's easy to fall into that pit and feel like there's no hope. Fuck that pit. That pit is a fucking nerd. Hold onto that hope because your future is bright. You just gotta keep holding on.
NSFW Artists being attacked on all fronts while the government actively protects pedos is fucking nuts and shouldn't be ignored.

I'm a dad of two kids, and as their PARENT, I make sure they don't ingest super inappropriate media. It's my job as a parent to police my kids. It's not the government's job. Which you think would be common fucking sense.
American officials already talking about regime change in Cuba while Israeli officials talk about confronting Turkey. I'm sorry but you have to finish the war you started before you get another war.
Yes.
ICE agents don't get to carve out a First Amendment exception for themselves.

Trans people aren't nazis for disagreeing with you hope this helps
I repeat again, americans have the most power to challenge these issues. If you have the ability to, you need to challenge them where you can.
EU, Canada and elsewhere can only exert portions of the strength americans can in instances these. Please use that power.
Theyre only going after in-game gambling/loot boxes as a means to get age verification in the door
The whole point of defending the right for uncomfortable, or even reprehensible fiction to have the right to exist isnt that its all cool and nothing is ever wrong with it
Its that government/corpo organizations will NEVER look at things with the """nuance""" you think is so self evident
Hey Kids you see this ?
> support@subscribestar.adult <
You use that to make these morons understand that they're being a tad silly. At this point you might as well not hold back, its for their own good.
Btw, if it's not clear:
The tactic the right is using rn is to start censoring fetishes and kinks that are generally accepted to be "bad" or "gross" by most people to slowly warm us up to the idea of censoring all sexual expression online.
Don't fall for this by going "this is actually based!!"
I never wanna hear anyone discourse Abt the ethics of furry porn again because face it we are jerking off to an anthropomorphic animal and I honestly don't care because people are gonna lose their jobs to puritanical laws and restrictions holy shit
The current Canadian government is trying to fast track Bill C-9, "the Combatting Hate Act" through Parliament. This bill is an attempt to squash and silence people's legal right to protest and strike.
Please take a moment to sign this petition opposing C-9.

Wish i saw this earlier but this document gives some useful tips on how to leave effective comments on these!

You need to call your reps and demand that they OPPOSE:
-the KIDS Act
-KOSA
-the Screen Act
-Sammy's Law
-the App Store Accountability Act
And additionally, oppose:
-reforming/sunsetting Section 230
-online age verification/ID laws
www.congress.gov/members/find...
For trans people, online resources and community are lifelines. The spread of age verification laws combined with anti-trans ID laws will block access to these lifelines. This is by design.

No one should have to submit to invasive surveillance practices to access the resources they need to survive and thrive. People should be raising hell about this! www.stoponlineidchecks.org
Before someone says this is probably geared towards religious businesses only, remember last year that the OCC named adult entertainment as one of the industries experiencing unfair debankment

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

Very Yeetable
Thank you for hanging on today's dev stream with me! We got the costume system coded in, so now I can start making even more cute outfits for Twinkle ππ½

I really wish companies would actually start respecting trans and gay people, but these companies are full mask off and they don't even give a fuck
Photo of young Abood seated on the floor with a broken leg.
Another picture of him there, but looking at his leg with pain expression.
π¨From Gaza, we appeal to everyone's humanity. My brother is disabled, autistic, and his leg is broken. He needs surgery to fix it with a metal plate. Abood is in pain, screaming, can't sleepππ
We urgently need β¬200 to complete my brother's treatment
