So many late nights battling the #Lucasrts QA team during development. My memory says we held our own, but I'm probably way off. I do remember living in fear of a few testers who had mastered the knife...the swing sound haunted me in my dreams.

GIVE 'EM HELL UNTIL THEY LISTEN

Charles II: Did you finish that statue of the Archangel Michael defeating the devil? Luisa Roldán: Si y yo hice la Diablo real fucking sexy, just like you asked

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.

The tactical genius has many talents.

Hedon Bloodrite is on sale again which seems a good time to repost the tactical genius on the censorship butterfly.

RIP screenwriter Ron Friedman. “Hasbro didn’t recognize that Optimus Prime was the heartbeat of the Autobots. You cannot pass that over and have any hope of duplicating the success you had. Once you establish an icon, you’re a fool if you don’t try to preserve it.” He was 93.

True story: When JRR Tolkien's poem "Bilbo's Last Song" was published posthumously, the title was changed. He'd called it "Bilbo's Last Lay", but his publishers changed the title because they feared people would interpret it as "Bilbo's Last Fuck". #tolkien #jrrtolkien #lordoftherings #lotr

The most important thing to know about Trump’s acetaminophen announcement is that the GOP is still hiding the Epstein files

imagine if a family of beavers randomly showed up right now and finished whatever thing you've been putting off

At some point I’d like to do a fundraiser on Twitch for a US-based charity that supports autistic people. Please let me know if you have a charity recommendation? It would need to be one that’s supported by Twitch directly (preferred) or by Tiltify* (If you’re not sure, that’s fine, I can check!)

How could I have missed it? The Atari ST is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year! 🎂 🥳 🎉 (released in June 1985) One of my favorite machines and so many good memories on my Atari 520 ST 🥰 #AtariST #Atari520ST #RetroComputer #RetroGaming

I guess the official title of Disney's next Star Wars project is "The Star Wars Mandalorian and Grogu". #starwars

what fucks me up about the Bluesky TOS update is fucking every adult creator i know wants MORE labels and filter options. we WANT more granular control over the labels and spoilers we can put on our work so people who want to curate their timeline to avoid us CAN DO SO

If you were a webcomic artist trying to make the next Berserk, Watchmen, Sin City, Skydoll, Blacksad - basically any acclaimed adult comic you can think of - there are dwindlingly few places you can independently publish that online

Whenever sites come up with new rules like this I thing about how if you were a creator who was making something every bit on the level with a hugely popular and acclaimed series, would you be allowed to share it? Like, if you were sitting on the next Game of Thrones, you couldn’t share that here.

Glad to see Cassian Andor himself (Diego Luna) and Tony Gilroy in the list. And many actors and filmmakers I like, in addition to people who are always committed for justice and fairness (George Takei, Pedro Pascal).

Anyway, here’s your form of consent, Bluesky.

Wow, that's a sprite of WIP motion-capture Roger! From a Textfiles.com search, it seems that image appeared in a set of GIFs found on several shareware CDs. There are actually two variants, one with & one without the cursor. The cursor-less file is usually dated August 19, 1990. #spacequest #sierra

Heavy sighing that echoes from my sad tired haggard nsfw-creating hands

this is my friend Ahmad. he turned 25 last week in a warzone. when i turned 25 i was moving to california to be with my partner. i turn 42 tomorrow, and it would mean the world to me if you could help him and his family

Original was “depictions of […] nonconsensual sexual activity,” now it’s “sexual content involving nonconsensual activity,” incl “illustrated or animated versions” It’s a specific narrowing, this does seem like an escalation due to the emphasis on illustration and animation. Those words matter here

Re: Bluesky doubling down on prude art policies, I continue to tap the “Newgrounds is the only good site left for artists” sign

the only way is to quit bsky and let the platform die. every company that decides to listen to investors, sponsors, advertisers, paypros and the like in detriment of the userbase deserve to be abandoned. they want the platform to be more known? let them pay the price for it.

Do NOT believe the misinfo going around There absolutely have been MASSIVE TOS updates Most notably: 1) Specifying no FICTIONAL noncon 2) No "dangerous" kink 3) No DISCUSSING self harm, suicide, or substance abuse unless its "educational" So what can we DO about it? #SaveSpeech 1/🧵

I know no one wants to hear this but de facto a lot of people will go back to Twitter if this starts getting us banned

Bluesky banning noncon might force me off the platform. Sorry folks. You know how it is. Half of the point of my VTubing career is creating lesbian dubcon / noncon in various iterations (from giantess / vore to all the Majestic Shields stuff). No nomcon, no ASMR promo, GG

Things that you can't post about by these guidelines: Lolita, Dragon Ball, Game of Thrones, Twin Peaks, The Handmaid's Tale, and so forth. Things that you can share: a picture of that lion you killed in Kenya. Good job, Bluesky. Really getting the pulse of the community here.

where the fuck do we go now 🙃 we already lost tumblr, twitter is crawling with fascist assholes, and now bluesky is committing to the most vague dogwater guidelines. what is fucking left.

honestly i don't want to hear the opinions of anyone under the age of like 23 on the new bluesky community guidelines the "no sex unless it serves the plot" bullshit frequently out of zoomers is just one feather on this dumb fucking bird

whatever though, i know that's not the point. big money to be made from collectively punishing the marginalised compared to losing money by allying with them. the unbeatable allure of securing yourself a seat on the sinking ship by drowning the person behind you

really not sure why it's so desperately important to insert consent (of all things) into an intangible nonreal space. fiction is already the fantasy. it's defined by its border. like actually grow up lol

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.

bluesky doing shit... we kinda knew it would happen but i guess we all hoped it would later keep (re)posting jokes keep (re)posting nsfw keep (re)posting your opinion about random things even if i don't agree with what you say/post, you're allowed to do it fck censorship

I can draw anything. I can make characters as abstract or grounded as I please. I can put them in peril or paradise at the flick of a wrist and the wisp of a whim. I can tear them to shreds and they'll be fine because I decide they're fine. Because it's all fake. You are trying to chain daydreams

why always the double standard between sexuality and violence? (new bluesky guidelines)

Don't forget guys, a man with hundreds of thousands of followers telling people to go out and commit hate crimes doesn't promote violence, but a drawing of 28 Toads running a train on Princess Peach DOES unless each of them have speech bubbles over their heads saying "I consent."

new (temporary) pinned! a resource thread i made for those who liked the vibe of bluesky but don't like the direction that platform is going with draconian censorship looming on the horizon

I am mad. Even if they didn't listen to the feedback, please keep posting your stuff here. You art is powerful and inspires many. It might never please everybody, even so, don't be stopped, don't be censored. Post and post and post, I want to see all creativity here. All of it. SFW. NSFW.

You might see several artists mad about the bluesky policy update banning non-con, even artists who do not make that kind of material, and wonder why it's such a problem. If that's you, here is a quick breakdown: 🧵

i feel like we have to let people make art about amoral subjects. If we don't then we have someone (??) deciding what IS moral and what is not in the realm of thoughts. I just don't think we should make it illegal to think about something, even visually.

Bluesky could easily add a filter or label that would allow users to opt out of art or video or writing that depicts non-consensual or dubious consensual relationship. Instead they want to ban it and without even the decency of a full explanation of the criteria. It's censorship, full stop.

Welp, looks like Bluesky had a good run. Might go hardcore to Mastodon-only posting.

“Thank y’all for the feedback and we’ve decided that we ain’t gonna listen to y’all” Are y’all trying to kill Bluesky? Cause this feels like a deliberate attempt to kill Bluesky
