SWers called this shit way back when the Patriot Act was first introduced. No one took them seriously back then, and we're now reaping that neglect 20+ years later.

Anti-porn, anti-sex worker, and anti-sex censorship directly corresponds to a tilt downward into a more ideologically conservative and oppressive society. Regardless of your personal comfort with nsfw content on the internet, it's absolutely critical to support it right now.

Anti-porn censorship is functionally anti-art, and a tool of surveillance states. Think abt the Miller test and how arbitrary and subjective its parameters are, and how that's also true of payment processors' and platforms' TOS. Think abt how age restricted UI is synonymous with data vulnerability.

At a time when US AID is already devastated, Exodus Cry and NCOSE are demanding that additional foreign aid be contingent on criminalization of sex work. A new bill would add provisions to the TVPA that further conflate sex work with trafficking. www.einpresswire.com/article/9158...

the internet has the magical radicalizing potential to reveal to people that Sex Stuff is actually Normal Stuff and that it isn't actually weird for it to share a space with Other Stuff. rich freaks have been scrambling to retube this toothpaste for decades and must not be allowed to succeed

This explains a lot.

If you have nsfw set to "hide" I implore you to set it to "warn". You still won't see anything except for a blurred post Otherwise once they roll out account-wide adult content labeling a whole lot of people including me are going to disappear from your timelines, even our sfw text posts

bsky too quiet? missing comments? not seeing posts from spicy artists? check your moderation settings and your bsky filters if you haven't configured these before, many of these will be set to hide as defaults

"Im not gay, but girls are icky and I love men. Like, a lot. I'd get on my knees and worship men all day. No homo"

Please set your adult content moderation to warn. The auto mod frequently misidentified adult content, appeals are often ignored or denied. If my entire account is labeled adult because I post artistic nudity and your moderation is set to hide you will not be able to see anything from my account

A side effect of the neverending war in Iran: major surges in domestic oil drilling. In California, permits for new drilling are up several thousand percent, typically through "Enhanced Oil Recovery" techniques that threaten water contamination. Here's a chart:

Honestly, this is good because it removes any plausible deniability about the type of people Trump put in charge of his domestic paramilitary operations

Now think of the 80,000+ people still in ICE concentration camps who don't have an audience to find them, fund their legal fees, and apply pressure for their release

After drawing Skecchiart's Vivi, I got the hankering to animate Vivi's mom Lei... First time I've tried animating facesitting, too! Link: files.catbox.moe/7krx7h.gif

People are angry about AI data centers and their impacts. Instead of addressing real outcry about harm to Black and poor communities, our government criminalizes dissent. Today it's Congress's intel unit. Earlier this week, WIRED showed how DHS, FBI, local police, and private spies are involved.

Remember "hope is not a strategy"? open.substack.com/pub/zeteo/p/...

It‘s inexplicable that after a decade the NY Times is still swallowing the Trump regime‘s disinformation and puking it back up for the public. The Strait of Hormuz remains closed, despite this headline that ran last weekend.

We fucking told you so. We told you and told you and told you. "AI" as an industry has to earn $2 trillion in revenue per year from now to 2029 in order for investments merely to break even. That's simply impossible. www.theverge.com/ai-artificia...

remember to keep cool this summer! for Azurebolt and lucluc!

This reminds me of the height of the crypto insanity. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZoYe...

“Creative breakthroughs happen when visionary storytellers are given access to transformative tools”-- Actually, creative breakthroughs happen when people don't have to drink brown water from data center waste. This is not cool or accessible, this is disingenuous & disappointing.

Gutierrez and Kojima reminding us that you should never put anyone on a pedestal. Fuck 'em both and don't let them backpedal.

Stop using AI. Now.

There's something really special about a man saying "AI is like if you had sex and then someone hands you the baby" because for him, a cis dude, that IS exactly what happens. And just like with AI, someone else is doing all the work too.

The thing that makes “gutter racism” an appropriate term for this is that it goes beyond even what segregation’s savviest defenders were willing to say in public 60-70 years ago. They understood that this level of explicit racial animus was embarrassing to the cause.

STOP TELLING ME AI IS THE FUTURE OH MY GOD

3/ It even opens the door to handing your data to Trump's America without a Canadian judge. The biggest civil liberties groups like @cancivlib.bsky.social, @openmedia.org, and @citizenlab.ca call this the most expansive invasion of our rights in modern history. thewalrus.ca/trump-wants-...

2/ C-22 drops the bar for police to "reasonable suspicion," the lowest threshold in Canadian criminal law, and forces your providers to keep a year of everyone's metadata. @mgeist.bsky.social calls it "a comprehensive surveillance map of virtually every Canadian."

1/ Right now, a bill called C-22 is moving through Parliament. It would let police pull information on who you talk to, when, and where, all without a warrant. It's at committee this week. 🧵

If you are canadian, please sign this petition to oppose bill C-22, and protect your right to data privacy!

My pieces celebrating the 35th anniversary, each one showing a different decade. The idea was to do something a little unexpected, be that illustrating a hypothetical moment in between the story's action or featuring a lesser-known game. Also taking advantage of my stylistic range :)

We haven't had to fire any shots so it's not obvious but a blockade of this magnitude would generally be considered an act of war. We did not do this in the 1962 missile crisis, we allowed ships not carrying weapons to proceed to Cuba
