The angry part of Bluesky remembered KOSA (now under the Kids Internet and Digital Safety Act, or H.R. 7757) exists but rather yell at you I'll say: If you have REALLY bad anxiety (like me!), you can call your reps after hours! Voicemail counts! The site 5Calls give you a script to read off of:

for whatever fucking reason discord has suspend access on my account... thanks. it says i gain access March 8 00:32 and i REALLY hope that means i get access back midnight TODAY and not midnight TOMORROW.

You better wake the fuck up now. If we don't make their lives ABSOLUTELY FUCKING MISERABLE, we're going be the ones who get shafted. And HARD. You best believe that everything about the Internet we know is going to die and everything we know and love with it. I've made my calls today. You need to.

everyone give a huge "fuck you" to buzzfeed right now

God if nothing else its nice to see -someone- in congress actually say the real facts on this shit rather than just spouting off the same heritage foundation talking points ad nauseum

The package of censorship and surveillance bills brought up in todays markup has been advanced Continue to contact your representatives and demand this legislation be opposed. Tell your family and friends, explain how these bills are not what they appear, and ask them to join us in opposition!

a large package containing KOSA and SCREEN act stuff is currently advancing through the house amidst the chaos going on in america, if you care about your lgbt friends and family and your own sense of anonymity call your representatives and tell them to fight back against it

actually extending this if you care about ANYONE the you DONT want this. call your reps tell them to say no

Bills like KOSA and more only become more dangerous Demand your representatives -oppose KOSA -oppose the App Store Accountability Act -oppose The SCREEN Act -section 230 reform/sunsetting -oppose/repeal online age verification and ID laws www.congress.gov/members/find...

Please, PLEASE, be loud about this topic, Android being open is what makes it useful, you own your phone and you should be able to install apps from wherever you wish to, don't let Google tell you what's allowed on the device you payed for! keepandroidopen.org

This really ought to be terrifying. We literally have people making decisions to drop bombs in the grips of apocalyptic fantasies.

It’s funny if you call PayPal or visa lines and bring this up asking why they claim “adult illustrations” is against their regulations but betting on the death of kids is totally fine. They don’t have an answer. In fact yall should call them at least once a day with this :)

ICYMI: I introduced my Trans Bill of Rights with @markey.senate.gov — legislation to defend trans people across this country as Republicans continue to push anti-trans rhetoric and bills. To our beloved trans community: We see you, we love you, and we will always stand with you.

To give Discord just the tiniest bit of grace and charity: The six month moratorium might not be them trying to "get everybody to forget about the age verification" fiasco, but actually give people time to sink the legislation that would legally require them to enact it. B/c it costs money.

very glad leon is giving us one-liners to an audience of zero people again

Drop some FEET 👣 🦶🖤👠

THESE bills are a major reason for places like discord, reddit, twitch etc pushing invasive Online ID None of the corpo bullying or nitro cancels matter if these pass, so you have to act. Be annoying about it. Get your friends and family who are unaware involved. Push the privacy/censorship angle

you should keep drying up their user revenue source in the middle of trying to take the company public

Every stage of this process - his arrest, spending a year in jail, being dumped on the streets to die - would be deeply shameful in a society that actually valued human life.

Sometimes you read news so appalling it doesn't matter how optimistic you are, it just gets you fuming! And rightfully so. Trans rights are human rights, and I'll stand by that till the end of days.

I've written up a brief script for anyone who wants to call or write your representatives regarding this bill (yes, even the ones you think won't care). PLEASE DO THIS IF YOU ARE ABLE. This bill *cannot* pass. You can find your representatives here: www.congress.gov/members/find...

While it is sad to see smiling friends hit the shelf so soon please dont be one of those obnoxious assholes that harasses those who work on the show for their decisions or fans of the show who are lamenting its departure.

They're recreating the 2008 financial crash from first principles on Polymarket but you want to spend taxpayer money on hounding the guys who just won against the fucking Rothschilds in court? Alright, man.

just got done screaming at my reps about these bills + HR 7661 if nothing else, it allowed me to blow off some steam

folks you really gotta start putting your money where your mouth is re: supporting vulnerable creators cuz things are looking more and more shaky

I'm ready for all the fascist losers of the world to start losing like the fucking losers they are anytime now, that would lift some spirits I think

They're hoping we'll forget about this in a few months and that we'll resubscribe to Nitro so they can get back their funding for this nonsense. Cancel yours and do not forget about this.

Congressional Republicans have introduced a bill that strips federal funding from any school that allows any book or resources that so much as references trans existence. They're doing it by redefining anything trans as "sexually oriented material." marymiller.house.gov/media/press-...

All those Discord alternatives that y'all are trying to push (Stoat, Matrix, Fluxer, Root, etc.) will have to comply with this as well if we don't stop this. CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVES EVERY DAY & TELL THEM TO VOTE NO ON KOSA, SCREEN Act, & ANY OTHER INTERNET CENSORSHIP BILLS!

Call your house rep and tell them to support HB 2540 which will increase the amount disabled people can save from $2k to $10k and remove the marriage penalty where you lose your only source of income if you get married regardless of how little they make. Switchboard: (202) 224-3121

NOW is the time to make calls to your reps about KOSA, SCREEN act, section 230 and more Call your legislators. Speak to office aides. Leave messages. Do so every day. Be loud and annoying. Get family and friends to join in. www.congress.gov/members/find...

please continue to contact your legislators and demand that they oppose/drop their sponsorship of KOSA and other internet censorship/surveillance bills. additionally, advocate for protecting Section 230, and blocking/rolling back online ID laws www.badinternetbills.com

Once someone is talented & recognized for their talent they get dehumanized & disrespected. These folks really had the audacity bully the fucking creator of a show they like because they didn't like something. People care so much about the media that they don't care about the person behind it.

Ya'll know the play here already but it's so funny Discord thinks it can outsource the blame for this stuff to their 3rd party vendors, even though for the end user it is *exactly* the same. "It wasn't us! It... it was one of our subcontracters!! :)" like man I trusted you and you trusted them so 🤨

"REPTILICUS" (released 20/02/61) When miner's discover a section of a giant reptile's tale, it is taken to Copenhagen where it regenerates... "Reptilicus" was made as two distinct films side by side; one in Danish and one in English. #scifi #horror #horrorfam #1960s #sciencefiction #kaiju #Sizesky

DO NOT SCAN YOUR FACE OR ID FOR DISCORD

I become more and more convinced that the AI is just right wing class war and the lack of white collar worker organisation due having been flattered for years as geniuses and fed like farm geese has just led to a colossal lack of awareness of the class interests going on.

Don't verify. Don't give them anything.

Also, do not stop calling your lawmakers to protect #Section230. Call them everyday, because many LGBTQ+ youths need the internet to survive this cruel world that views their existence as undesirable. Repealing it is part of Project 2025. U.S. House/Senate number: (202) 224-3121

If the motherfucking KING OF ENGLAND is willing to have his own brother arrested because he's a pedo, whomever is running in the midterms and in 2028 needs to bring fire and brimstone for EVERYONE in the files. Charles himself realizes how important this is! This is not an extreme position!

Reminder: under no circumstance should you give discord your ID. It is gonna -suck- trying to set up alternatives, and this whole fiasco is going to damage communities, but you CANNOT give them your info

hi guys I know I haven't been very active lately, and I don't talk about where I'm from often, but the government made some really scary announcements today so I thought I'd share to let everyone know what's happening. here are some posts from twt for context

if you live in Wicsonson, theyre trying to push through an insanely restrictive Age Verification law that would make it illegal for an ADULT to use a VPN to access "material harmful to minors" contact your legislators NOW

Say it with me: KOSA is not about child safety, it’s about enabling online ID checks to control you. No one asked for KOSA. True online safety for children is on the parents to monitor or ban their activities. #FuckKOSA #NotoKOSA #AbolishKOSA
