The truth is, way too many journalists & content creators sat there and said nothing when SESTA-FOSTA passed, when OSA passed, when OF nearly lost porn due to paypros, even during this summerβs Collective Shout situation. A slow apocalypse for the free and open internet has been unfolding for years

I had a dream last night that we hired a duck translator, but he kept saying the duck was talking too fast so he couldn't understand it. I was just starting to consider it was a scam when I woke up.

I really wish content creators would stop hyping up Where Winds Meet as an MMO. The game looks incredible, but if people go into it expecting something like WoW or FFXIV they're going to be disappointed. I worry about chuds bashing it after finding it not to be what they anticipated.

It's cool how we keep proving over and over and over again that there's a significant market for narrative-heavy, character-driven, single-player experiences in video games and publishers just categorically refuse to believe us

I must live under a rock or something, but I didn't hear about this "alternate Wikipedia" until last night. It's like Wikipedia, but written by AI, inaccurate, and "anti-woke"? I'm sure that's gonna do great. (Sadly, it probably WILL do great, to a certain demographic...)

I propose November 1st as resurgence day. Halloween ends, and we all pick up the phones again. MasterCard and Visa, bare minimum, once per day. Every day. All of us. They are only hiring the usual number of holiday workers, this would frighten credit card companies. βItβs not going awayβ

Common misconception: The game is actually called "Dungeons IN Dragons". You have to explore the massive colon of a dragon.

Hey! Did you know Mythos is currently on sale for 25% off?! For less than 10 bucks you can experience a murder mystery that may have some sex in it, and also has awful jokes!

the funny thing about this is folks get RILED UP sayin things like 'if this is true then a painter would be a painter if they never picked up a brush' or 'an actor would be an actor if they never had a role'. YES that is the point. in art the empty space also has meaning. NOT doing also has a shape

Starting to hear rumblings from organizers, activists, interested parties that they want to advance further on protesting payment processors. Not enough to call, not enough to sign petitions. Itβs time to protest in person, IRL at the locations of these businesses β PayPal, Visa, MasterCard

I think we can come together as a community and subvert the "I have something important to tell you" hacked account scams by starting a culture of just being upfront and getting to the point in DM's π No more "hey" or "Can I ask you a question" just write a DM like you're writing a letter plEASE

Adult games have *never* received so much mainstream press before, and it's reaching many players for the first time. We can come out of this healthier than ever, but we gotta work for it. Do your dailies! And, stay strong and vigilant about this. We can still do this! β¬οΈ

This bill would criminalize pornography by legally redefining what it means to be obscene. Period. Full stop. No more porn legally. If you post porn whether free pics or paid vids. this affects you!

I mean... if Mastercard is really worried about things that "hurt their brand", it feels like this is doing them more damage than the nastiest porn imaginable.

there's an episode of The Simpsons where Marge tries to get a violent cartoon pulled from the airwaves, only to discover that the people backing her aren't going to stop at just the art that *she* doesn't like, and that supporting artistic freedom means accepting discomfort. It aired in 1990.

MasterCard CLAIMS they are fine with any legal game being sold, but they are secretly forcing censorship of legal games through intermediaries. If MasterCard wants to pretend they aren't for censorship, they need to change rule 5.12.7. (Source:

Reminder that we haven't actually seen any results yet. Itch reindexing free NSFW content and Valve making a public statement are not results, they're distractions. The *bare minimum results* is a retraction of the restrictions placed on Itch and Steam.

I still refuse to believe this statement is true as Stripe has banned NSFW for basically their entire time operating, and this message seems specifically designed to push blame off of them as they're getting hammered with calls. All the more reason to continue to call and continue to pressure them!

how do we feel about a strip game where item removals are motivated by reports of how a call to a payment processor went or screenshots of your phone with call times. i'm thinking of using eveline i wouldn't be able to draw/post the first part till tonight but any calls made Today would count
