We got gen-AI dubs from Amazon and gen-AI subs from Crunchyroll, but if you torrent a fansub that real people worked to translate, code, and stylize, you're the piece of shit.

I hate this "phones" conversation regarding queer people and queer kids because the bottom line is, cishet society KNOWS. Right-wingers KNOW that the internet is how queer people connect to each other---hell, that marginalized people period use it to organize and educate.
That's why they hate it.

Bluesky Support has suspended this furry congressional candidate's account for no apparent reason. They want to limit his reach and kill his campaign, presumably for not being whatever they consider "advertiser friendly". We really need to get loud about this, and not let them get away with it

black Americans are told we have no cultural relevance but 1, we do and 2 it's not that we don't have it, it's just stolen and bastardized by non black people who can easily drop it anytime.
our music, fashion, speech, queerness, dance, everything, has influence, but with us erased from it.

"I DNF first-person books if I can't relate to the protagonist" is a kind of illiteracy.
The point of first person is not to insert yourself into a narrative. You are supposed to experience and empathize with the perspective of a character that is intended to be fully fleshed out.

The call campaign is having an effect! The pressure right now is integral, if you are making calls, PLEASE KEEP CALLING. If you havent called yet or took a break, now is a GREAT time to hop on and add to the pressure!

Spoke with a source who told me the call volume is so high, a call center for both Mastercard & Visa is bringing out pizza and ice cream so agents don’t quite amid the rush. Long waits are causing dropped calls.
What you’re doing is working. Call MC & Visa.

Been a minute since I posted my Mastercard/Visa strats to drag out the call
1. Ramble at the beginning for as long as you can - goal is to clog the line
2. They won't insist on card # if you say you're in public
3. When you get disconnected call back and lodge a complaint about it immediately

We need to keep it up, on all fronts, this is the core season of the paypros, we just need to keep the pressure up
Spoke to my source familiar with internal workings at Mastercard. The holiday call campaign re payment processor censorship is working, there is a lot of pressure being felt from your calls. This is resulting in increased response times at a core moment for Mastercard due to the holiday season

Reminder that these processors have not yet backed down AT ALL on mass / arbitrary censorship of legal art / expression / transactions

The lines are getting clogged from calls and Mastercard is feeling very pressured, they're looking into how to act in response. They're collecting information on callers to have a better understanding of who is calling in re the censorship issue

Just so it's clear. It's not allowing AI because it's trying to create a clean dataset for training AI. It's not because any of the involved parties actually care about human created art.

I’m so irritated that the black women who were in some role at Lucasfilm seem to have all left. And I’m not irritated at them for leaving (unless they were forced out), I’m irritated that the environment wasn’t conducive to them staying.

But also, I just think as a former sex worker that it's incredibly, incredibly fucked up that so many of these Internet figures have been attacking camgirls and content creators when all they do is functionally the same thing to children, sometimes also with the sexual element
I think twitch should be 18+ because selling parasocial relationships to children has shown itself to be an incredibly bad thing for society.
