Hearts in a Fist got a double update archiveofourown.org/works/557392...

Read the banned books. But also read the ones that could be banned. Ones from trans authors, Palestinian authors, and indigenous authors. Read the ones about black happiness and sapphic history. Read the ones from climate scientists and critical comedians. Read the romances and the horror novels.

[update] Scheduled: #AO3 will be down for about 20 hours starting at 07:30 UTC on September 26 while we prepare some improvements to collection browsing.

Bsky has a new top complaint category on the Play store: Poor user moderation It also dropped almost a whole number overnight

"Art commission" spambot comments are on the rise! Do not give scammers your email or social media information. Read more advice from #AO3 Policy & Abuse about how to protect yourself from spam at otw-news.org/yckkv3hy

as a fan of noncon, dubcon and under/non-negotiated cnc this is honestly one of the most straightforward explanations of this i've ever read?

I cannot emphasize this enough: The regime has overextended itself. It is vulnerable to protest and dissent. They have not consolidated power and we are entirely capable of keeping them from doing so. Doomers are not realists.

Romancelandia: even if you don't read dark romance, the new Bsky guidelines should concern you. Disallowed: "Illustrated or animated" depictions of nonconsensual adult content. Why ban fictional depictions of anything? And how will consent be determined from an illustration?

DO NOT participate in #blueskyblackout2025 I'm nsfw artist and other nsfw artists are asking you to SHOUT! Bsky wants to censor us so the worst thing we can do is censor ourselves! Publicly shame them, use the feedback button, and post about it using the tag #bskycensorship Silence is compliance!

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/🧵

If you wouldn't be happy with your voice, your likeness, or your writing being used for AI generation against your will, don't use AI art.

Also nothing says "we know our userbase is gonna hate this" like releasing the update announcement on a Friday evening

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

Bluesky is likely preparing to open up monetization options and therefore has to prepare a landing strip that MasterCard, Visa approve of

Just like with "woke", i wanna know how they define "non-consensual". In the BDSM community, there is such a thing called consensual non-consent. Meaning your consenting the person to do whatever they want (non-consensual). In a way they are trying to erase the BD/SM, kink community.

Itaku is still the same as it was when it first started. I know you hate moving yet again but this one is based on Estonia. And if I know one thing is most Estonians are the most literate on the Internet in the world. They do their homework and are actively opposing censoring everywhere.

Addendum: Also, what about stories where highlighting the abusive aspect of an interaction *is the point*? Not every depiction of nudity or sex is something you're meant to get off to. Does that content and those stories just no longer have a place on this site?

But also, when it comes to consent specifically, in the context of static images and illustrations what is and is not consensual is often going to be up to the whims and discretion of the person doing the moderating. This creates a precarious situation for anyone posting nsfw content.

First, let's get this point out of the way from the start; many people will be mad with any changes to the rules that extend beyond legal requirements. It's a censorship issue, content that is legal and was allowed is now no longer allowed despite being legal. That sets an uncomfortable precedent.

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: 🧵

Lord alive, they want fictional characters in fictional sexual situations to model consent for literal adults like a patronizing early 2020’s sitcom where the point of the writing is to convey that the writer’s been to therapy at some point

censoring nsfw art for the sake of politeness culture is gonna come back to bite you

100%. It’s really horrific - especially because you just know that after the ‘weird’ kinks will be all porn and then all queer media. It’s exhausting.

Goddammit bluesky
