It infuriates me that as human-made porn is being increasingly censored across the board, AI porn is not only allowed, but celebrated. And AI porn exists because of stolen content from non-consenting, unpaid human pornographers. It's maddening.

Bolaire is SO cunty I love him #CriticalRole #CriticalRoleFanart

Keep tabs on your favorite artists, follow their other socials, and keep an eye on how they start moderating, come oct 15th. If you start seeing bullshit, fact check the situation first, then let your voice be heard if you smell foul play. Fuck censorship and vague af, easily abusable guidelines ✊

was struck by sudden inspiration to paint everyone's favorite hot boy with watercolors 🎨 #art #watercolors #CriticalRole #CriticalRoleFanArt

the secret to fandom is accepting the fact that you can view fictional characters as complex and nuanced and thoroughly enjoy the themes baked into the show AND ALSO imagine them bouncing on it crazy style in whatever way your peenor decides would look hot

she's an angel, don't mind the horns and the sulfur <3 #criticalrole #criticalrolefanart #crspoilers #art

Your images are not being stolen by some nefarious Bluesky AI bot. Machine learning has been used for years to ensure a human does not have to be flooded with heinous imagery. I only had to moderate CSAM once back when I did community management and it fucked me up for ages. Stop chatting shit.

and hey on the topic of ID laws do you really trust Bluesky, whose admin and c-suites physically cannot stop themselves from posting-through-it, to be able to hold onto your fucking govt ID and not leak it in a data breach like Discord? these policies suck, they are dangerous, call your reps

oh its the thing everyone said was going to happen when this got brought in and it immediately happened

I think the biggest difference between The Internet Then and The Internet Now is how Being Mad Online used to be the one thing you could never admit to, under pain of death, and now, Being Mad Online is a whole career path with a skill tree and an ever-expanding variety of debuffs.

Tell your favorite artists you love their work

Hhhhh the weather finally shifted into Fall Mode and my joints have let me know that they're Unhappy about that. 😩

hey if you’re against #blueskycensorship #bskycensorship and have access to the ios store, we’re not review bombing NEARLY as much as the google play store. stars is actively engaging in fandom discourse. make them hurt for it

vestigial

Just sat down with some friends so we can all send them feedback regarding their NSFW policy changes! Please send them feedback, we can't have arbitrary censorship like that happen 🙏

I'll say it again, Art is communication. "Create for yourself" really means "Create art that communicates who you are." And one sided communication feels terrible. Commenting on peoples art/creations can be scary, I get it. But COMMENT. COMMUNICATE. We want to hear it. I want to hear it.

I also think its important to note that when people reduce this issue to just "ppl are mad u cant post rape 🤨 degenerates" they're ignoring how many others have explained that this paves the way for other kinks & nonnormative sexuality to be similarly censored & That's Bad

Cracks knuckles here we go, CR portrait 1 of 8

I've found the best strategy when your reps are Rs is to really hammer home how Anti-American, Anti-1st amendment, & anti-freedom these bills are, cause it's true. Also how much they've tanked the popularity of candidates who've backed KOSA in the UK. Also endless "you're wasting my tax $ on THIS?!"

** 1.9k+ raffle ** whoa.... hi... enter for either 1 fully colored drawing or 1 sketch page (NSFW). i'll draw most things, but ONCE AGAIN check my page FOR MY STYLE OF ⚠️⚠️⚠️CONTENT!!!⚠️⚠️⚠️ + like, RT, or reply + must be following me at time of closing (oct 10 10am CST) #nsfwoc #nsfwart

HANG IN THERE! 화이팅! #art|#kpdh

you're the main reason to keep on going

If you're screaming about TOS changes and haven't screamed into the feedback form yet, you should do that!

Btw they're hiding replies to this, mine and dozens of other artists (who were frankly nicer than me about it) replies can't be found under the thread. They want us to shut up and roll over. Dont. Give em hell.

TELL bsky you have an issue with this! 1) KEEP talking about it - don't let this issue fade away 2) Submit feedback to bsky! TELL them its not okay! On PC: on the right under "trending" On mobile: on the left under "settings" 2/🧵

actions that will contribute more to pushing against bluesky's censorship than a blackout: -submitting a feedback request -@ing moderation about it -commenting on mods posts about it -making and sharing memes (ex: "i consent!" sticker) -leaving an app store review -just generally posting about it

it should go without saying but if you want users to voluntarily tag their art then you need to not threaten to ban them if they do. like, you can either have a well-regulated, easily-filtered art ecosystem or you can ban art you don’t like and see it come oozing back out of every crack and crevice

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

we exist in community. we do not need a homeowners association. we do not need to have the same house, the same porch ornaments. all I ask is that my garden is left alone, and that when I bake a batch of cookies for the neighbors, it's not called poison simply because (my) hands touched it.

by the way, the primary aim of the censor is to make themself obsolete by making people go "what's the point then." the censor must never be permitted even a moment's rest. drown them in work. if you stop posting what you want in order to protect your account, you are doing their work for them.

They have this button on the right hand column that in addition to public shaming, lets you shame them in other useful ways

Istg I'm going to chip a tooth. Can creatives have ONE THING without some chuckle fuck with a 'morally superior' stick up their ass bringing an axe down on us?? Just one???

"but banning rape art is good i think" says the little baby that (1) wandered into this discussion for the first time, (2) thinks mods are reasonable, and (3) has no empathy or imagination to examine maybe why folks draw this sort of thing in the first place

"illustrated non-consensual activity" how is one supposed to determine the consent status of a cartoon

We once had a song called "the internet is for porn" and that's aging worse with every day.
