not to be annoying, but people need to understand, a big reason paypros are emboldened to impose their bullshit puritan morals on everyone is because of who's in the White House. businesses have zero restrictions and they're run by fascists who want icky queers to not exist. politics matter. sorry
The whole anti-fiction crusade pisses me off so badly because not one of the people involved understands art or fiction.
These people are fine with boring heterosexual coming of age stories where some Billy Everyteen is clearly having sexual fantasies about banging some girl his age.
Remember when everyone lost their shit when Turning Red came out and the movie was about puberty for girl? I remember seeing assholes crying about why didn't they make it into a sex ed video for schools.
what it feels like to be an nsfw artist sometimes
I feel like some people don't get, like...the reason why Child Sexual Assault Material isn't bad because it's "gross", its bad because it involves the sexual assault of children to produce
hence the name
unless something has gone VERY wrong, it takes no sexual violence against anyone to draw a gob
acceptable in the eyes of a payment processor: buying and selling actual humans.
unacceptable: consensual titty and penis pics/drawings/literature
like the concept of consensual, safe, and self supporting selling sex anything has demons fucking Mad.
When an AIPAC-backed candidate is so threatened by Kat Abughazaleh that Laura Fine sends one of her staffers to try & infiltrate Kat’s ground game, you know Kat’s doing something right.
Reject dark money, reject the forever war. Fight for real progress & democracy.
The reports about US and Israeli support for secessionist groups in Iran seems to have freaked out even some of the people who initially supported the war, FDD in particular wants Trump to issue a statement supporting the territorial integrity of Iran to stem the bleeding of Iranian opposition anger
This is why the whole "fictional depictions are CP" thing pisses me off so badly! Underage sex in fiction *does not harm children*, and if you try to say it does this is where it leads -- not just censorship of art but also "real women have curves" type body shaming. I hate it all so much.
The biggest laugh I gave about the Subscribestar rules was "underage-looking characters." Oh so even if you say they're an adult, their boobs are too small which means they're a child now. It's so obviously some rich christian moron at a bank making this up as he goes.
I'm constantly mad about this. I've never hurt anyone writing fucky stories for perverts and we're watching the details of child sex abuse coming out for the first time done by the people who ruin the globe. I have to suffer for imagined harm - real harm done by Bill Gates is not to be considered.
If the genocide on Gaza didn't prove that the Abraham Accords were definitively a failure then this war on Iran really should. If you dedicated the last half-decade to the idea that you can delegate to Israel and UAE and reorient towards East Asia then you've been proven a sucker again and again.
One of the most underrated tragedies of the Biden interregnum is that he and his most trusted advisors looked at a model of regional order designed by Jared Kushner and, for whatever their reasons, thought it was a good idea.
I think if I were to send the head of legal at Grammarly a note that said I broke into his house and took his wallet, but in future, he could opt out of me stealing his wallet, that would go great and they would be fine with that 👍🏻
Interesting poll of a specific district in Florida which further corroborates that the Democratic primary electorate is significantly to the left of their electeds on Palestine
Lindsey Graham has probably done more to fuel antisemitic conspiracy theories than like anyone else in the US Congress in decades
"One of the largest school districts in New Mexico subjects Navajo students to pervasive discrimination and a climate of fear."
"It's our kids, our students, who are suffering the consequences of entrenched racism."

Secret of hedgehog hearing discovered at far beyond human range. 🧪 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
I have been saying for years that there is something weirdly cancel-proof about Tom Cruise. we have known jaw-droppingly horrible things about him for decades and it has not made a dent! people still line up around the block to watch his movies! maybe this will be different but 🤷♀️???
There's a certain sub-genre of leftist who doesn't actually care about anything besides the aesthetic of leftism, and it's important to identify them early and stop listening to them. Fortunately, they're not overly difficult to identify.
Hey, folks, one of my dearest friends who just lost their job recently owes the IRS $700. They feel really unsafe having their name/payment info online so i'm acting as their go-between; paypal is below, cashapp is $AdrienneLeigh. Put 'IRS' in the note and i will pass it to them directly.

👀 ICE deported two U.S. citizen children with their mother to Guatemala, even though she had apparently elected to leave them with their grandmother in Florida.
The govt is now arranging their return under court order: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
Even as a cynical scholar of rape culture, I'm shocked that this isn't the headline story on domestic politics everywhere right now. It's just an unfathomable abuse of power, in clear violation of the law.
Give me one good reason why fictional incest art should be banned but not Game of Thrones
I think incest stuff is a bit gross and I don’t want to be calling anyone Mommy or Daddy or be called those things myself. But I can recognize when people are minding their own business and not harming anyone
So we have two figures — McSweeney and Henderson — both central to:
1. Weaponizing antisemitism against the Labour left
2. Pushing Labour's anti-trans turn
That's not coincidence. That's coordinated.
And McSweeney's patron? Peter Mandelson.
McSweeney resigned in Feb 2026. Same month Mandelson was arrested — over his Jeffrey Epstein connections.
Flew on Lolita Express. Called Epstein "best pal." Stayed at his apartment while Epstein was in prison.
An underrated reason the "AI" "revolution" is shit, is scraped "generative AI" is a *LOSSY* record of all human data.
An "LLM" model can recreate past images or sentences, but not in the form someone labored over and loved it— it can only preserve it by making it worse. Pirates should be archivists
And to be clear, I'm not talking about the ~25% that is in the cult and will never stop supporting him. I'm talking about the much larger segment of the population that still believes in the system writ-large.
Trans youth healthcare in the UK has always been the worst of the worst for medicalised mispractice of this kind.
But this particular one is more egregious than most.
On this flimsy sham they have banned under 18s HRT on the NHS.
