When we write or draw porn or erotica, we get banned from having a bank account and our livelihoods get seized even if we give it away for free.

When billionaires steal what we've written or drawn to churn out a slop-approximate of porn, they're allowed to charge for it.

Oh good, ChatGPT is getting "erotica for verified adults" later this year

We made ChatGPT pretty restrictive to make sure we were being careful with mental health issues. We realize this made it less useful/enjoyable to many users who had no mental health problems, but given the seriousness of the issue we wanted to get this right.

Now that we have been able to mitigate the serious mental health issues and have new tools, we are going to be able to safely relax the restrictions in most cases.

In a few weeks, we plan to put out a new version of ChatGPT that allows people to have a personality that behaves more like what people liked about 4o (we hope it will be better!). If you want your ChatGPT to respond in a very human-like way, or use a ton of emoji, or act like a friend, ChatGPT should do it (but only if you want it, not because we are usage-maxxing).

In December, as we roll out age-gating more fully and as part of our “treat adult users like adults” principle, we will allow even more, like erotica for verified adults.

Michigan friends, Michigan citizens, please fight this. For yourselves, and so it doesn't become a model for the rest of the states.

Mike Stabile @mikestabile.bsky.social · 5d

Buried in Michigan's antiporn bill is a provision to effectively outlaw "circumvention tools," such as VPNs.

Mark my words: legislators will increasingly leverage porn panic to restrict or ban VPNs, and to limit internet privacy far beyond adult sites.

Experts raise privacy concerns over Michigan bill targeting pornography and VPNs

Rep. Josh Schriver, the bill’s sponsor, says the law is designed to target only producers and distributors of pornography, not everyday internet users.

I have a suspicion that Hocus Pocus made Disney nervous putting their brand name on Nightmare Before Christmas for years. Cause their other Halloween movie Disney *did* put their branding on that year flopped in the Summer and has a sudden dead cat scene, as a suit you'd get cold feet too.

No stream this weekend so I'm retweeting the Holly comic for spooky season. A follow-up is planned soon but I'll start working on it next year, planning on putting a stricter page limit to keep it focused. The original punchline I planned will be in what's next, you're gonna wanna read this for now.

"Holly's Retribution" (Comic)
This is a big one.
I began brainstorming this almost two years ago and started drawing it Spring last year, with three major revisions during blocking doubling its length. It started as a loose sketch from 2016 I felt years later there could be more with.
1/2

This is the story of a woman named Holly Emmerson. She lived on a dreaded planet called Earth.

We see throughout the panels Holly being hounded down by her work supervisors, get slapped by her ill-tempered mom for frequently being late on the house rent and fear for her life overwhelmed by impossible work duties and an explosion of societal collapse and anger.

As Holly studies the "Crimson Stone" assignment handed to her detailing the unknown cosmic power it holds, she herself begins to hear the 'calling noises' detailed in the lab reports. In an act of suicidal curiosity, she smashes the containment bubble in the isolation chamber.

Holly reaches out and grabs the "crimson stone", immediately electrocuted and feeling unimaginable pain. However as her inner rage slips through, she yanks the stone away from the pedestal. The control has shifted to her as she kneels down in exhaustion.

She awakens to find herself massive on a whole other world, being praised by an alien acolyte who has been waiting long for 'a new bearer of the stone'. Holly clumsily shrinks herself back down to normal and speaks with the ancient creature.

He hasn't signed the other bills yet, but he still has days to do so
This headline is misleading for not mentioning that.

The gender education veto is bad, but far from the most important trans rights bill on his desk.

There's still time to contact Newsom for the rest!

An easy revenue boost to port Rare Replay and they've never done it yet, for PC or any other system. My second-hand Series X I've been using on occasion as a 4K disc player but barely touched games on it like I initially wanted. That used copy of Rare Replay is just sitting there.

Time's short and they're counting on obscurity: please let German politicians know how horrifying their reversal would be.
