depictions of rape is not a bad thing. it is a sensitive subject and should be engaged with care, which is why the mod tools should be in the hands of the individual to self-determine their own limits if you censor rape, you are making rape something no one can acknowledge exists or talk about

Really wanted to color them but my tendinitis flared up 😭 #oc #historical #seabirdsproject

“We‘re just clarifying rules,” and there would be policy changes clarified that fit with prior enforcement, but also policy changes that are escalations. Purposefully confusing and manipulative. I don’t trust Bluesky on this one folks

This means Bluesky would be able to discreetly ramp up enforcement of the rule while gaslighting users, ie acting as if the policy was already there, they’re just clarifying the rules, but nothing has changed This is a common ToS tactic in tech, Facebook would do this while targeting sex workers

Guess: Bluesky has already actioned certain noncon content, but staff isn’t being forthright abt an officially codified rule leading to more consistent enforcement. This would reflect moderation of Nathan Grayson, Gretchen Felker-Martin, Jessie Gender re political content bsky.app/profile/sidh...

Twitter, Discord, many fediverse instances, chans, and most boorus allow for this content — even if there are limitations de jure, it’s de facto common on many platforms (ex Twitter). Bluesky isn’t being forthright via official channels about enforcement which leads to understandable skepticism

Gir but for people addicted to porn

I don’t know if they let cowboys in 👼🏻😈 #art

And the concepts in it while at times interesting are also kind of dumb

Chainsaw man is one of those stories I want to like but in watching it I just do not like it

I wrote about trans community suicide prevention, including a 4-step guide to peer interventions with links to further resources, for Xtra: xtramagazine.com/health/we-mu...

I have said for decades that frustration is a good thing. it's not even really something I see as something to 'tolerate' though I recognize that's a matter of perspective, but rather frustration is the symptom of you having standards and recognizing you want to close that gap between you and it

Ignore how grown out my roots are I’m trying to get rid of my box dye

Got a haircut finally :]

Got too high again

“Just be yourself” can sound like cliché and bad advice, because honestly, it goes badly sometimes. It can hurt. Some people will reject you. But the reason it’s worth it is that when things do work out, it’s with people who really like the real you, and that feels so much better than pretending.

If youre in Ohio, you should really take the time to contavt your state and federal level representatives about Age-verification!

Jealous type is an awesome song though I loved it. The ahhhh men!! Sample is so played out

My hypochondria is so bad I keep thinking that the reason I can’t exercise as well anymore is because I have long Covid

I’ve been asked quite a lot over the years about how I remain calm when responding to trolls and bad actors. Some day I’ll do a bigger write up, but one of the biggest things that has helped me a lot is to remember: “When you’re easily offended, you’re easily manipulated.”

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🫶🌏🫶

Excellent piece by @notrightruth.bsky.social about trans community as the antidote to trans despair. ruthpearce.net/2025/09/25/r...

maybe nothing will get better ever again. I need to make comics though

“Im shipping candy to my nieces and nephews. It needs to go overnight” brother you didn’t even try to make a convincing story

"But abusers use it to--" ABUSERS USE ANYTHING THEY CAN GET AWAY WITH, DEBRA. it can be math textbooks as easily as it can be genshin impact loli doujinshi AND IN FACT OFTEN MORE LIKELY

Unless you can prove to me the making of the fiction harmed a real human, I don't care. Which, for the record, that normally happens with things like crunch, fiscal abuse, work place bigotry, and professional exploitation. It doesn't happen because pixels on a screen made you uncomfy

"But it's fetishized and romanticized and it grooms--" Fuck you. Genuinely. If you care more regarding someone getting off to some incest loli waifu 18+ game or rape gore porn on AO3 than you have about gun regulation or police brutality, fuck you.

You don't have to like it. You don't have to accept it. You can criticize it to hell for all I care. And you should. Art existing doesn't mean it's free from scrutiny but art is how culture moves and art is how people learn what exists in the world without having to live it.

But even all that aside, the main reason I believe fiction shouldn't be censored is because EVIL SHIT HAPPENS IN REAL LIFE and fiction has every right to reflect, inspect, magnetize, and interact with REAL LIFE. stories are experiences that are TOLD and HEARD. Conversations shouldn't be taboo.

queer and trans are always the first in the line of fire to be discriminated against but the collateral damage is toward everyone because what it does is it flattens nuance so people can arbitrarily be marked "undesirables" the moment you step put of line to then burn as a witch

"What about pedo shit--" It's remarkable how many people who think they are better than Q-anon are just repeating Q-anon conspiracy so casually. You know how pedophiles get away with so much? By crying wolf about child abuse so much that no one takes any reports of it seriously

incest is supposedly such an ick that people poison cultural norms like pacific-asian languages addressing colleagues/peers as "brothers", which is just racist short stacked women and dwarfism are hated on for being "child coded" which is all levels of fucked up moral panics are always bad faith

the thing about moral panics is they aren't about moral panics. it's about community control and rampant bigotry. censorship is a tool of fascists, those who purity police are fascists, and if your disgust agrees with their mission more than the right for fiction to gross you out, you are a fascist

reactionary thinking is incapable of thinking of art as anything other than a propaganda tool. they can't ever accept people make their own choices, so when people express individual opinion inspired by art they think it's the wrong propaganda that did it. They want the Correct brainwashing.

when artists express ideas and feelings about life/politics through fiction it's literally a thought experiment. art is supposed to make you think and react, you see. and how you react or what you conclude from said thought experiments are your responsibility to handle.

the people who want fiction to be manuals teaching you what to think or feel about politics/life aren't artists. you're thinking of propagandists.

i think a lot of the whole gen z hates sex scenes thing can largely be boiled down to "generation that lives with parents doesn't want their parents to walk in at the wrong time"

Guess who caught someone shipping drugs again
