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

If I may don the tinfoil cap for a second, I think the increasingly absurd restrictions on adult content also have the very much intentional side effect of restricting, if not wholly destroying avenues for (largely marginalized) people to provide for themselves, sidestepping a precarious job market.

Unfortunately I forgot to save my own comment as an example. Just be courteous and explain how Reputation Risk policies harm you and/or other people around you
This is important if you don't want visa or MasterCard to tell you how to spend your money.
just so i'm clear, i trust no one that prefers not to speak about politics. if you have told me you'd rather not state your preferences on the political spectrum i do not trust you. i do not care how long we have know each other, just know that i trust you a lot less if you claim to be apolitical 🖕
Macro March with Friko!
Peeking above cloud.... nine?
Well hello there anyways, mister plane!
Spaces for kids have been destroyed or re-worked into stores, adult spaces aren't allowed to be actually "adult" lest we anger the CC companies, and supposedly neutral spaces are full of gambling/porn ads, disinformation, and right-wing pipelines. An internet that is increasingly not for anyone.
photo of Alex Schaefer painting a bank across the street from him. It's a beautiful, bright, sunny day, and the pristine bank is contrasted nicely against the painting of the building consumed by a raging inferno.
Do y'all remember Alex Schaefer, the artist who would go around painting various real-world banks engulfed in flames?
I've been thinking about his work a lot lately, as we watch payment processors continue to punish people over porn.
Kinda weird that the US elite is full of child molesters flying to pedophile island but if a poor artist ages Sailor Moon up to 18 to sell porn to anime fans she gets obliterated from the internet
I know calling reps is very nerve racking. You're not sure what's the right thing to say, and tbh having a script thrown at me makes things just as nerve racking.
I called today, and I figured I'd write up a transcript of how my call went down. Hopefully it helps demystify the process
One day I'll be able to simply not rebleat some dire fuckin' shit and all of my feed will just be cool art and funny videos and fat fuckin' asscheeks and not
~ALL OF THIS~
And you need to call yer representatives to complain directly TO THEM that I cannot yet do that.
Even folks who create fictional content you may find reprehensible havent done a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of the harm a paypro CEO or the average politician/world leader has
Its not fucking fair man
What makes me so fucking mad is
I never hurt anyone. The vast, overwhelming majority of nsfw creators and sex workers dont.
We get cut off from the ability to use-the-dollar but all the sick fucks that hurt people, both directly and indirectly, every single day, never get even a slap on the wrist
I'm real fucking sick of this double tiered system the world runs on. Diddler in chief can get away with literally the most HEINOUS SHIT IMAGINABLE, and suffer ZERO consequences. While us normal people get SCREWED OVER by the exact same payment processors and banks that allow that shit.
Individual websites will not save us. Running from platform A to platform B will not work as payment processors and legislation will simply follow our trail
You have to speak out against censorship and surveillance legislation. Its the source of all of this.
Call your reps
The Substar TOS looks extremely similar to Patreon's now. Call your reps or we will lose everything
Tell them to stop the payment processor power grab, tell them to vote no on child online safety bills/ID verification. We need everyone
Why am i not surprised the site that allows right wing content to thrive is doing this puritanical shit. I left the site then and it hurts that people are only leaving it now that they are pulling this shit.
And the sad part is they're getting away with it all. I understand the fight isn't over till its over, but it really feels like trying to solve any of these issues with civility won't work. They won't allow it. Im not really sure where im going, i just needed to vent. 3/3
It just really feels like we, the majority of the population, have gotten screwed over in literally everything. Can't have nice weather, they fucked it up. Can't afford to live, they horded the wealth. Can't have privacy, they want absolute control. 2/3
Was 40F a few days ago, today its mid 70's with temps going to drop down again to 40's within the week. Weather is fucked up and with everything going on, it really feels like the fight against climate change is over.
Ik its very doomer, but it seems its completely left the sphere of relevance. 1/3

I now feel empty since it was occupying all my free time
I don't really wanna beg for free art so instead of drawing my character how about doing a public service
