It's really funny that there's like No Confirmation that Vanilla is a single mother but Vector having a crush on her is as good a confirmation as any because he would never fantasise about a married woman like that

It saddens me greatly that I have seen people say "im asexual so it doesn't matter to me" about the rise in censorship- not exclusive to bsky btw; it does matter to you. Your sexual orientation does not give you moral high ground. I dont know how to explain you should care about other people.

Hi. Im a sex repulsed asexual. Just because sex repulses me personally doesn't mean it should be censored the way it is being more and more. Just because you personally dont see the value of sex scenes doesn't mean they're irrelevant. It is not a moral failing to like porn and it shouldn't be erased

wish there was a better way to have the convo about the fact a lot of fans force queer subtext into big corporate IP that is comically devoid of it, champion it for being "so gay", and then turn around and go "mm idk, it isn't PERFECT rep" about indie stuff actually trying to include those themes

Thinking about that Miyazaki quote about creators of anime nowadays being primarily people who just watch anime and not getting external influences outside of anime in comparison to Uematsu growing up deeply on prog, psychedelic, and electronic music.

New commission sheet! It's been a long time since I had a current one, haha. Rules below!

FEEDBACK FORM: Use this to demand bsky roll back its harmful adult content policies and ask for a better labeling system instead! #bskycensorship

Bsky's new TOS cracks down on adult content and goes into effect on Oct 15 🚫 We want better content labels, NOT censorship. Use the feedback form to demand change They've forgotten the only reason bsky exists is because nsfw artists, sex workers, & the trans community left twitter #bskycensorship

[Threaducation: NSFW Moderation & Personal Responsibility) There's a lot of talk about Bsky's new TOS nonsense, which kicks in on October 15th, but most of the users here don't even KNOW they have moderation settings to avoid NSFW content they don't wanna see. That needs fixing RIGHT NOW! 1/6

This appears to be a raptured Mario keyring (Luigi did not ascend)

i genuinely think "companies don't owe you anything" is a weird take especially in the cases of companies that very definitely only seek to make profit, right like. well. customers decide if a product or service is valuable to them and if they don't like it, they don't buy it, so... i think they do

It is very annoying that people assume trans women voice actresses will "refuse to voice a male character." I've heard this sentiment from cis working professional AND from fan communities. It's not true. At all. We, trans women VAs, will happily take those roles. It's -acting-. It's a -role-.

my fucking internet shit out i'm going to kms

today's the last way you can wear white, so... #artpost #oc

remember! you arent calling representatives to change hearts and minds, youre calling in order to INTIMIDATE them through sheer numbers into backing down on dumbass censorship bills. politician's aides literally give them a spreadsheet on how many constituents call to oppose/support bills.

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

Right column is for bills to mention, left is for scripts. I've done a ton of these and you can call back multiple times. Show them you mean business. They're not there to grill you, they listen and nod and thank you for your input.

no yeehaws today

Please consider sharing this! It’s so important to highlight Black artists and Indigenous artists. There are still spots open. Seriously, I see other starter packs fill fast; I’d love for this one to be complete. 💔 I want to uplift BIPOC artists.

CM ☺️ I had a lot of fun drawing them and I think they're very pretty! #commissions If you you're interested in getting your own cm info in replies😊

Bro you can’t give up. You were born in a world that has onions AND garlic. You gotta hang in there it's worth it

This!!! Don't resign up for Disney+. Let them keep feeling it in their pocketbooks.

not even an extremely tiny buny is safe from controversy

Disney made it HARDER to cancel - more steps online They're desperate! Keep the pressure on. Qasim Rashid reviews the manipulative new steps and offers some good advice.

Thanks John Oliver

what fucks me up about the Bluesky TOS update is fucking every adult creator i know wants MORE labels and filter options. we WANT more granular control over the labels and spoilers we can put on our work so people who want to curate their timeline to avoid us CAN DO SO

I am not a noncon,dubcon artist.That said this is all kinds of Bullshit,in what world would I want to live in were I have even less options for stories.I don't care for explicit noncon or well painted well crafted depictions. I want my artist to have made their vision uncompromised. #bskycensorship

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: 🧵

Do you remember? 🐸🪩

Disney adults canceling subscriptions, vacations, etc really are making the Harry Potter adults that threw a fit over a $60 video game look like huge bitches

Fuck a bluesky blackout, we need a whiteout. Cum everywhere, a week of moderators being unable to escape The Cum.

Pls don't do the blackout thing guys pls actively yell at moderation. Bsky isn't losing money if you don't post, there are no advertisers to scare with no engagement.

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

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/🧵

While people are suddenly and uncharacteristically paying attention to media regulation, please take a moment to notice all the massive harm Brendan Carr has done to consumer protection and public safety as well me, back in April:

I'm not joking, it really did get thrown out and this really is why

we gotta stand up against this shit and have each other's backs.

My hot take here is that this is fundamentally identical to the use of religious imagery/references in agitprop because it is a common cultural touchstone amongst those you are trying to agitate

fundamentally, protest is cringe, and that's okay
