@theguardian.com you seriously need to fix this headline. Putting the ability to create AI-generated imagery behind a paywall is NOT "turning it off". Considering what it's being used for over on X, it's actively and knowingly monetising criminal sexual abuse.

"no, your honor, it's not a publicly accessible CSAM machine. it's a for-profit CSAM machine. that's very different and clearly not somehow even worse"

putting it behind a paywall is not "turning it off" lol what www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

this is a strategy every other "nudify" app on the market uses, by the way. someone's been studying! www.404media.co/a16z-backed-...

Infuriating. Can sex negative feminists and even the most puritan women finally join forces with sex workers against digital abuse? We have been telling you where things lead to and here we are Techbros making money out of deepfakes of YOU while YOU can not post your body even if you wanted to

Monetising AI-generated sexual abuse is a whole new level of dystopian hell I did not have on my bingo card for 2026.

I'm honestly terrified to open my old X accounts because I'm sure I'll find endless examples of people doing exactly this to me. Hell, they did it right here, and despite reports didn't take that account from last year down. Whoever ran it deactivated it themselves.

"What makes the situation this week with Grok different is that it’s all happening directly on X... X has become the Everything App that Elon always wanted, if “everything” means all the tools you need to fuck up someone’s life, in one place. "

ocs are at their peak when you are having FUN and they're FOR YOU. i'm talking "this doesn't exist in media and i want it to" "i like this character trope/archetype" "i love these colours" "i love this style of fashion" "i love when pairings are like this" TAKE IT ALL AND PUT IT INTO A BLENDER

You cannot be a right winger/conservative and listen to punk/alternative music. The genre in itself is anti fascist and pro human rights. A handful of songs are about rebelling against an oppressive government and tyranny. “American Idiot” by Green Day is the best example of this.

i cannot stress this enough - this isn't just about anime titties. github banning whatever it considers 'pornographic' is huge. depending on how you interpret it (and it's left deliberately vague), this threatens legitimate technological development and sex workers' infrastructure.

github mass-suspended a bunch of developers making mods for popular erotic games, without warning or explanation. even when users try their best to stay withing platforms' rules, they get fucked www.404media.co/github-ban-s...

Make that 1300 words 😁

Two awesome things happened today— 1) I wrote about 500 words on my first book (thank you #booktok) 2) I got accepted into law school to continue my law degree. 😁 Fuck, I feel like I can finally breathe again. 💜

Just a reminder, because everyone seems to have forgotten: Tumblr wants to or is actively selling your data: mashable.com/article/tumb...

Shout out to the Halsins here because I think this brush looks so nice on him

One guy tried, unsuccessfully, to blow up a plane with a bomb in his sneakers, and everybody had to take off their shoes at the airport for the next 20 years. Chatbots have a collective body count equal to Richard "The Night Stalker" Ramirez, and they're trying to put them in schools.

No, but this is ACTUALLY the secret to getting good. Get yourself a blorbo you really love. Best: Get yourself a blorbo that sits smack in the middle of the pyramid but has absolutely NO content made for them, so you have to do it all yourself. I used to be a graphic designer. I am an artist now.

Happy New Year, everyone 😁💜

I really, really miss gaming, fanfiction etc etc. I'm going back to using this account for that. For those people who follow me for more serious things — I'm sorry, but your girl needs some whimsy and fun back in her life for a while. 💜

Redrew a Gale art from a couple of years ago. Settled with my style pretty much these days - so I expected the differences to be minor. #baldursgate3 #bg3fanart #galedekarios #galebg3 #galeofwaterdeep

We're not going back that way.

#tavqotd What's a motif you associate with your tav/durge?

Happy New Year, everyone 😁💜

Citizenship is a BS concept but stripping it should hardly ever be done - I have literally litigated this issue in high court and the ease with which officials can do this with zero repercussions, engagement with affected people and the damage it is does is horrendous.

The instant someone uses the terms "trans ideology", "transgenderism" or "trans activist", I view them as being potentially transphobic unless proven otherwise.

Love to see it! Congrats to @blackneto.bsky.social and @kurohitsuki.bsky.social for being featured in this article about MtG and Black nerdery in USA Today! www.usatoday.com/story/money/...

For all my #BG3 playing mutuals out there, does anyone know if the little Auntie Ethel cheat still works to save both what's-her-face and get Ethel's enhancement item? Or was it hotfixed? #BaldursGate3

Just a last reminder that I'm either shutting these feeds down or hugely reducing them. If you use them regularly please reach out if you want to take them over. You can find full lists of my #BG3 #BaldursGate3 & #DragonAge feeds in the 'Feeds' tab on my profile page xx

It's almost like eugenics never stopped 🙃. History really is a big circle. It may look slightly different and take different forms, but the basic shapes always remains.

I've been posting throughout Dec., but tbh I'm running out of things to say for #WorldHIV/AIDSAwarenessMonth outside of anti-HIV/AIDS stigma is intersectional + is deeply whorephobic.....now imagine how some sex workers feel having to repeat these same sentiments REPEATEDLY. #ListentoSexWorkers

Idk how many times I said this based on how many people have done this but if you have time to follow hundreds of people, then you have time to set up your profile.

#daOCqotd Does your OC journal, keep a diary? What are their journals like?

"This week on The Oldest Profession Podcast, we honor...the International Day to End Violence Against Sex Workers...by...exploring the realities of criminalization, societal prejudice, and the everyday risks that come with working in a highly stigmatized industry." oldprosonline.org/special-epis...

Went exploring older parts of Joburg today and came across a second-hand book store... 💗 Besides the really depressing three measly shelves of erotica (with one shelf dedicated to "gay erotica"), it was a fun morning 😁

This also applies when adding minors to lists, especially if said list is ONLY of minors. Please don’t… their parents clearly aren’t keeping them safe but you can do the bare minimum by not making it worse.

It's always made me extremely uncomfortable when people do this. We're not protecting them by making it a public call out, and despite our anger they will always remain the priority & most vulnerable person in this situation & should be protected from being victimised & targetted by predators.

(1/5) #RedUmbrellaDay, or the International Day to End Violence Against Sex Workers, is one of the most important days in the sex working calendar.

Hi everyone 💜 I'm shutting down my #erotica & #NSFWaudio custom feeds—I just can't afford the cost & time for their upkeep anymore. You can find a list of my feeds on my Feeds tab on my profile. If anyone would like to take them over, DM me! I'll keep them going until year end. xx

I sort of wish y'all took this more seriously, because this attitude is a reinforcement of heterosexuality as a hierarchy. It's an acknowledgement and understanding that it's not enough to "be with" a woman, or even to father children. They define manhood as exploitation, abuse, and dominance.

"How did the West fall, granma?" "Well, a bunch of incredibly fragile white people with more money than humans should be allowed to have decided to light it all on fire because somehow, somewhere, a minority was being treated like a human being. And pronouns. They fucking HATE pronouns."

There's a few days left on the end of year fantasy bundle! Don't miss out on 64 books for the low price of $45! Get in on that now!

And so it starts again, lol. #BG3 #VirtualPhotography
