#blueskycensorship #spicybsky #nsfw #dndoc I don't have very much to offer, but I offer you these 🫸🌶🍽

i love marius and his big boyfriend thorne having sex

The US if Tylenol actually caused autism

im too tired to rehash this for what feels like the millionth time, but erotic art/writing which explores taboo themes is a scene between creator and audience. the characters are tools, no more able to consent or not than a flogger. the people who need to "consent" are creator and audience.

This ought to be engraved somewhere.

"How badly a cartoon character gets treated isn't the problem, the problem is that people might be jacking off to impure thoughts" literally who gives a shit you insufferable god-fearing fucking wimp go back to the kids' table

If you, like me, are the parent of a neuro-atypical child dreading this autism press conference, please remember: These are the people hurting our kids. Not us. They are the ones stigmatizing and pathologizing them. They are the ones peddling untested science. And we should be very, very angry.

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?

Have YOU sent in a support ticket about the new moderation policies yet today? 🗣️ Several points to make: 1. Art shouldn't be censored 2. It's difficult to *show* consent in a drawing 3. Banning means it will still be posted, but unlabeled 4. Bsky automod is VERY unreliable + will ban incorrectly

This guy idk

like im not saying that there aren't cliquey fandoms out there but i want us to ask 2 things when we see accusations about it: 1 - is this just, like, called "having friends" ?? 2 - are you entitled to someone's time & space?

Well, I'll come back and color this sometime later, I'm sure #mizroxcard

'A NSFW ban won't negatively affect me, I don't draw or post porn!' You sure? Here's how it went down when tumblr did it:

So I think free speech is good like, inherently, but the issue with a lot of the legislation about NSFW material is, besides that, bad from a consequentialist perspective too. These laws only matter to people who will follow them. You're just sending people to places that are less safe.

Everyone with issues with the terms of service changes I get the frustration but you need to think bigger, the uk has age gate all NSFW posts. Australia is doing even stricter rules and the EU is voting on similar ones. You need to help highlight the larger issue and get people to vote on them.

discourse , lrp // i thinka lot about the notion that for sexual authoritarians, sexual ethics arent about preventing abuse/exploitation, but about ensuring no one has pleasure that they "arent allowed" to have

"How can we tell the ppl apart who are making trauma art and the ppl just getting off to fucked up stuff" You can't & its none of your business, and doesn't matter anway because the motivations of a sexual predator aren't about arousal, but power, humiliation and transfer of shame and suffering

putting this on your timeline again

I will remind folks those images of Nazi book burnings aren't burning just any books. They're burning the library of Magnus Hirschfeld; a gay, Jewish doctor who created an institute dedicated to LGBTQ sex education and healthcare. And a man who pioneered gender affirming care surgeries.

The only consent that matters in art is the artist's consent for it to be seen, and the viewer's consent to see it.

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

What’s really concerning too is that there is no way for this to be moderated. Don’t get me wrong bc it’s a bad policy to begin with, but no one is going to pay a human to deep dive and figure out nuance in art. They’ll just nuke ALL of it like tumblr did, because it’s cheaper and easier.

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: 🧵

To be very clear: SA does not just look like 'rough sex'. SA is complicated, it can look exactly like vanilla missionary sex. Insisting that there's a clear visual difference hurts SA survivors as much as it hurts kink artists.

Anyway my porn

regulating how and when and in what tone and in what art and on what platforms and what feelings you're supposed to have about it when it comes to discussing sexual assault is just a tool to suppress discussion of it. It is another way to force sexual assault back into the realm of secrecy and shame

I always see the thought process of violence in porn leads to violence in real life. Which feels very does shooting guns in video games make you do gun violence, or does listening to metal make you a Satanist.

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

Something that pisses me the fuck off about the new Bluesky & discord TOS’s is that it restricts speech and expression so much for REGULAR PEOPLE while so much media that people might want to discuss would not pass their rules.

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

I don't like this and I'm never gonna like it, this is what killed Tumblr, this is killing art, self-expression and self-explanation, this is destructive, this will harm

The only thing I've ever wanted a social media platform to do is chuck the fascists and bots and keep the NSFW and porn.

the myth of a free platform for artists

Little hand drawn animation and banjo theme I made. It's been a year since my brother's passing, it's hard to type stuff so l'll just let the video speak for itself. Thank you for watching. Keep going, enjoy the sandwiches.

This dumbo octopus is my current mental state: sad little squishy guy

someone added me who has OVER 35 DNI :(

I don't usually post about stuff like this but I don't see anyone talking about the new Discord community guidelines that are banning text/fictional stories about underage sex, going into effect September 29.

in light of the kimmel news, just a reminder that a few days ago a prominent fox news host literally called for killing homeless people. right afterward, someone shot up a couple homeless encampments. that fox news host still has his job.

She gave me this lil squeak when I was taking a picture but it’s a live photo so I can show you 🥹

Roger and Dora art because I think they're neat!!! #MemnochTheDevil #tvc #vampirechronicles

I did a quick practise on Marius using only my imagination. It's better than the one I did a year ago using a reference 🫣 (second pic) #mariusderomanus #thevampirechronicles #fanart #tvc

if you have an air fryer you should put chickpeas in it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i promise!

Quick #marimand for a mood boost..)

Tiny pumpkin thieves!
