Yoooo congrats on 8k, man! Watching you blow up and seeing how incredibly dope your art has become has been a privilege and a joy

For-profit age-verification providers are now pushing for "continuous biometric monitoring" — AI scans of your face, your voice, your behavior — while you're online to protect children. Every session. Every website. Every keystroke. Monitored and recorded.

The legislator behind the new Ohio age-verification law doesn't even know what's in the bill. He claims that it excludes social media sites. No such language exists. This is why you don't push something you couldn't get passed the normal way into an budget omnibus. www.wkbn.com/news/ohio/ho...

Some transgender people see only darkness in front and behind them. The current climate is especially accelerating this. Transgender people just want to love the people they love and live their lives as themselves. Let's all join hands and change the world🫶🌏🫶

In the past hour or two signatures on this have nearly doubled. It’s almost as if nobody wants a compulsory for all form of ID which will erode civil liberty and solve nothing. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/73...

Apparently a lot of ppl needs to hear this #bskycensorship

@warren.senate.gov has co sponsored KOSA despite overwhelming opposition from LGBTQ human rights groups + First Amendment experts. @evangreer.bsky.social @helpbyamg.bsky.social + other locals callu on her + @edmarkey.bsky.social to oppose any legislation that would harm the LGTBQ community 🗣️

i hate that we have to defend VPNs, but ... we have to defend VPNs

VPN usage surged in the UK after the disastrous roll-out of their online ID check / age verification law. It took about 15 seconds for politicians there to start talking about banning VPNs. This is why we're organizing the #DefendVPNs day of action today. Join us!

Today’s the VPN defense day of action! @fightforthefuture.org’s @liaholland.bsky.social tells @techradar.com: “ it’s important to make lawmakers aware that, if they come for this technology, they're gonna be facing an uphill battle against the whole internet." www.techradar.com/vpn/vpn-priv...

I still think we can win this fight: I think we can overturn the nonsense; but we cannot win this by being foolish. You have to make your calls, send your e-mails and letters, and you have to stay informed and talk to others. You cannot be silent about this. You have to join us NOW.

If you havent joined in the effort yet, if you havent called any reps, or sent letters to paypros etc etc You can still hop on and help. Now is the time to try! Because we will only get out of this by trying! stop-paypros.neocities.org

Reminder: Oppose and repeal all the age/ID verification laws. They're not protecting their kids but they are censoring you and demanding your personal info. Tell them to stop. Tell them to get rid of this shit.

Feels like I haven’t drawn a single commission in MONTHS 😭

Keep calling paypros with us. As recently as this week someone familiar with Mastercard said there's discomfort within the company over the phone calls. Numbers and info: stop-paypros.neocities.org

I don't see much chance of this passing as written but important to to know what they're trying to do to take away your rights and control your life. And the people who push bills like this don't go away. They come back again and again with more "reasonable" bills to chip away at your Liberty,

Call your senators and your house rep. Make a stink by being clear that abandoning trans adults and children is a no-go. Cis people, call and be loud for us. We are tired.

it's that time of year

the myth of a free platform for artists

Randomly remembered this painting I did (2014) today and still think it's pretty cool honestly! I love this color combination.

The solution right now is not saying “move to Mastodon, to Pillowfort, use Picarto galleries” etc, bc that won't stop this silent escalation of censorship and sexual repression on the internet. The issue is not which platform we choose, but rather raising our voices against what is happening.

porn is a wedge issue because politicians believe it is unpopular and that its supporters are to ashamed of their degeneracy to stand up for themselves. if enough people make a stink about this issue for long enough, porn starts to look less and less like a good spot to drive in a wedge

and likewise, Canada's petition targeting the C-2 anti-immigration/pro-surveillance bill has hit a new groundswell of support and has amassed over 9K signatures! This one's deadline is October 28th, so once again, absolutely continue encouraging folks to sign! www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en...

#SaveSpeech in a bit of not-bad-news: Canada's anti-paypros petition has hit over 12k signatures! Y'all are doing great! This one's deadline is October 25th, so keep pumping those numbers in the meantime! Our support has to look as strong as possible! www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en...

this is why i encourage people to call/mail their representatives on issues too. This is WHY a lot of them get really nervous when they get a bunch of phone calls yelling at them, not because theyr hearts and minds are being changed but because theyre seeing their cushy ass job at risk

"Taking away a broadcast license has so many legal obstacles and takes so long that the FCC doesn't even try." This is important to understand. The real action is in self-censorship and merger approvals. view.newsletters.cnn.com/messages/175...

Before the events of Sep 10th, KOSA was reported to be dead in the committee. Now they're using said events as an excuse to try to get the bill through. Just because the debate guy got killed for his free speech doesn't mean they should take away yours. Linking resources below
