#SaveSpeech Ana's situation has gotten more severe. This is blatantly targetted debanking and [extremely unfortunate] proof that these call campaigns are getting under paypros skin Keep calling Visa and MC and demanding they stop discriminating against adult content! stop-paypros.neocities.org

Here we’ve got another drawing of Lev. He’s just so fun to draw. I’ve never drawn his face from this sort of angle so it was interesting to figure out how to make it look correct. #oc #pirate Reference from @adorkastock.com

Did a ship chart for Lev and Clove. Lev’s answers are red and Clove’s blue. Generally, Lev is high energy and dramatic and Clove is chill and easy going.

A drawing of my character Quinn. They’re always fun to draw. I really like how the lighting turned out in this one. #oc Reference from @trueref.bsky.social

Here’s another drawing of my character Lev. I love drawing him. I’m imaging this as a sort of POV from his husband in the early morning. #oc #pirate Reference from @theposearchives.bsky.social

Everyone in EU, UK or any US state with ID laws on the books [or even ones without them] should contact their representatives and mention this data breach specifically and [link the article if emailed] Show them the actual, tangible results of all this digshit online ID legislation

Remember there’s a campaign for this on 5Calls if you need a script to read from: 5calls.org/issue/kids-o...

@safety.bsky.app What kind of crack are yall smoking to have the AUDACITY to call this shit SAFE

Indie director Barbara Marques has been kidnapped by ICE. She is legally married to a U.S. citizen & was at a green card mtg when she was abducted and prevented from seeing her lawyer. Her husband Tucker May does not know where she is. Please spread the word so he can find her /1

Hakeem Jeffries voted for Charlie Kirk Day but still isn’t sure if he’ll endorse Zohran Mamdani. This is why the approval rating of the Democratic Party is lower than Trump’s or the GOP.

Don't let them get away with this without a fight, guys. This is a gross abuse of power and I know every red state is looking at shit like this and salivating

This text is buried in a larger bill. Don’t want Marco Rubio to be personally responsible for revoking people’s passports based on thought crimes? Call your reps about it!

ICE claimed the father tried to hit them with his car or that he "dragged" one of the agents. Then bystander video was released showing this was completely false. ICE executed a man on the street in broad daylight.

A lot of people currently calling for civility saw Kirk's violence as harmless because they weren't the primary target. The fact that being lower on the list is seen as safety is wild to me.

This is the line that Dems need to push. It can't be simply. "Political violence is bad" it MUST be "Political violence is bad and Trump and his ilk are responsible for creating conditions ripe for political violence"

If you're preying on children, you're not on *my* side of a mf thing, jack.

PayPal user in the UK lost their account after buying adult ebooks “about monsters and milking,” “some dubcon stuff” “My account got banned a couple of days ago for making purchases which violate the ToS. Upon querying w/ staff over the phone I've been told that it was ebooks that I've been buying”

Here’s a drawing of my character Lev. I wanted to do something dramatic for him and I’m happy with how this piece turned out. #oc #pirate

Colombia is the first state to impose total energy embargo against Israel. This decision has to trigger further action across the globe. We call to pressure governments, institutions and corporations to end complicity with Israeli crimes and urgently impose effective sanctions. #BDSworks

#SaveSpeech Updated list of major US bills ya'll need to yell at your congressmen about, w/ talking points. Tell em to say NO to: SCREEN ACT KOSA IODA www.congress.gov/members/find... CALL EM. MAIL EM. EMAIL EM. MAKE YOUR VOICE HEARD.

The more things I've made, the less I've been interested in publicly criticizing the things that other people make, because once you make a few things you start to understand what a miracle it is that anything gets made at all

Here’s one of my #ocs. She doesn’t have a real name so I just call her Bunny Mask or Bunny. The character was designed for a hypothetical Victorian themed platformer game. I just finished her redesign, you can see her old design in the second image. I thought a more retro style would suit her.

20 Aug 25 -- Bluesky has suspended multiple trans users for anti-J.K. Rowling posts even when they didn't mention threats or violence. @rikiwilchins.bsky.social

Dozens of countries use mail-voting because of its safety and accessibility. Despite his attempts to undermine it, President Trump has used mail-in voting in two elections, including his own. Everyone deserves that same freedom to vote.

Fuck censorship. They're coming after you next, whether you make porn or not. I have never sold NSFW services or artwork, yet here's my termination from Stripe! Fully SFW, innocent headshots of furries = adult content. This is what we've been trying to fucking tell y'all this whole month!

Duolingo's CEO has been vocal about replacing human staff with trash AI that's more likely to get translations wrong and make your learning subpar. Stop using Duolingo. Uninstall it. Leave comments and reviews that you'll come back once they put people first again.

Texas law is clear: A pregnant person can't be arrested for getting an abortion. Yet, Lizelle Gonzalez was charged with murder for having a medication abortion. We won't let Texas officials evade accountability for her wrongful arrest.

Contact your reps and say NO! [ #SaveSpeech #FightCensorship #CallYourReps ]

This is one of the most beautiful things I have witnessed, the craft here is impeccable.

No lie, this calling campaign is one of the most effective levers we have at the moment. If we sustain the campaign through the financial quarter we'll be sending a strong message that this administration is bad for business. Please continue making censorship unprofitable.

Since it’s in mastercards rules that content that is ”patently offensive and lacks serious artistic value”, I think all artists should all call in and politely ask for the definition of “patently offensive” and where we can find the comity responsible for determining “artistic value”

Time has changed

It's like a virus. If they put out a statement at 2 weeks and we stop, then the next time they censor even more, we'll have to call 4 weeks to get them to even make a statement. The fight won't be easier to win a year from now. We just have to be relentless, we can't give them a recovery period.

⚠️ important info for ig users

Visa is now actively shutting down calls regarding their censorship and prohibition of the sale of legal product. They clearly retrained their staff on how to deal with our calls. That doesn't happen unless there's critical mass. KEEP IT UP. They are trying to turf the calls as fast as they can.

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.

I thought I’d posts few of my pieces from #artfight this year. Here are Dora by @monomercy.bsky.social and Berry Pie by @bunistxr.bsky.social.

Hey, so, TOTALLY not suggesting that RFK Jr. BACKS DOWN when we PUSH BACK, BUT if you’d like to call… HHS Toll-Free: 1-877-696-6775 HHS Direct Line: 202-690-7000 PLEASE share and consider calling your senators and representatives as well. NONE of this is okay. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

As a reminder, when trans women got together to create an all-trans women team and then played against another all-trans women team, the usual suspects complained because that day the field could have been made available to "normal" people.

Just because lots of people love an artist's work doesnt mean that work loses merit. Also art isnt a competition like a sport or capitalism. There is always room for more people to be loved and celebrated. There is always more room at the table. More art/artists is always is better!!

Be aware that another shitty bill has been introduced: The SCREEN Act. If passed, it would require Full. Age. Verification. Like KOSA, call all your reps & tell them what a horrible idea this is. Spread this pls. Link: www.congress.gov/bill/119th-c... #screenact #badinternetbills #stopkosa

t's amazing how this is from more than 20 years ago but very well could have been from today.

Good morning. Did you call your local censorious payment processor and let them know you’re upset with their bullying of Steam and itchio? No time better than the present yellat.money

"make weird horny art!" wow i love the energy so you guys are going to actually be normal and not go on a witch hunt when you see a ship or kink you don't like?

It is as important to voice your concerns and issues to those responsible but equally crucial to encourage support for friends and creators, more than ever. To address the bans and censorship is to also become much more eager to get more of that art and media out there !

Yearly remake of this poster. My feelings against generative AI remain the same, if not constantly reignited.

Florida is sending random undocumented immigrants pulled over in traffic stops to the Everglades detention camp, and because the whole thing was set up haphazardly, they still don’t have any easy way to find out if someone is detained there (like at any normal detention center or jail).
