you can tell this is the case because more than once I've seen some game get glazed back and forth for their accessibility options, go into the menu and see two dozen granular difficulty modifiers that have nothing to do with accessibility
and no 'text resize'

I do get really frustrated about "accessibility" discussion in games though because I feel like 99% of it is argued by people that don't actually need accessibility options

What gets me is that fanfic/fanart creators have been talking about the subject of getting dogpiled, harassed, and pressured *for so many years now* about making dark/unsettling content, and let nobody listened to the canary in the coal mine because “stupid fandom drama”
alternatively we as a society could realize that fiction is about playing with dolls and that horrible things happening to them doesn't matter because it's all toys.
but that seems more complicated than just bringing back big box PC games and publishing books alongside them

the fact that patreon employees will just straight up say, to your faces now, "I stalked your other accounts and found something in a *cartooning style* that made me personally uncomfortable so I'm taking your income away" should be way more alarming to people.
◇Turns out it was a combination of Patreon thinking Karen and Emily looked too much like minors, and not wanting to mix sex and hypno bc that's inherently noncon and against the rules. After a few days of scrambling we abandoned our Patreon and set up our SubscribeStar.◇

Rebecca Heineman's last message was for people to look up her departed partner, Jennell Jaquays.
Jaquays was so influent to tabletop RPGs that "Jaquaysing" became a verb for designing complex, non-linear dungeons.
@nickoten.bsky.social wrote a great article on her:

Feels like it should be bigger news that a journalist known for being loud about her investigations into banks/payment processors appears to be getting financially stonewalled by the entire industry unaminously right now.
The full count as of today:
YouTube suspended
Twitch banned 3x
Patreon suspended (temporary)
Patreon 3x audio flags (one false posi)
Ko-fi suspended (indefinite?)
Buy Me a Coffee suspended
Vice reporting censored
Pornhub censored 3x times
Fansly censored 1x

Is it really a conspiracy to say Ana is being explicitly flagged by finance bros when she's now been banned (or censored) from Twitch, Patreon, Buy Me A Coffee, Ko-Fi, and *PornHub*??

Banks are targeting individuals by name because of their "high risk" line of work who are too outspoken. This is why we need you to stand up for nsfw creators
Friend tried to donate to my Throne, flagged by fraud detection at Bank of America — bank identified the transaction as specially for “giantess voretuber Ana Valens”
I suspect I faced those Patreon / Ko-fi dings b/c financial institutions have me, specifically, on record as a high risk recipient!
