"To whom do you award the right to decide which speech is harmful, or who is the harmful speaker? Or to determine in advance what are the harmful consequences going to be, that we know enough about in advance to prevent? To whom would you give this job? To whom are you going to award the task of being the censor? Isn't it a famous old story that the man who has to read all the pornography, in order to decide what's fit to be passed and what isn't, is the man most likely to become debauched? Did you hear any speaker of the opposition to this motion – eloquent as one of them was – to whom you would delegate the task of deciding for you what you could read? To whom you would give the job of deciding for you? Relieve you from the responsibility of hearing what you might have to hear? Do you know anyone? Hands up, do you know anyone to whom you'd give this job? Does anyone have a nominee? You mean there's no one in Canada good enough to decide what I can read, or hear? I had no idea. But there's a law that says there must be such a person, or there's a subsection of some piddling law that says it. Well, to hell with that law then." C. Hitchens, 2006.

Been having such a blast with Mario Kart World. Completed all the grand prix cups on easy tonight!

I've used Super Horn to save myself from the Blue Shell twice now. So good.

Gonna play Animal Crossing next.

I suggest you all follow this guy. He covers how to spot AI videos & photos and while some are more obviously fake, some of them like the fake B&W security footage are shockingly difficult to notice & you have to rely on body language & consider natural behavior

Patreon Policy Team emailed creators saying they'll host a livestream clarifying existing 18+ guidelines on DEC 11.

If you're a creator please show up!
You can submit issues you'd like them to cover in the rsvp form.
Live with the Policy Team Join the Policy Team on Thursday, December 11th (12-1pm EST) for a livestreamed conversation about proposed updates to Patreon's Community Guidelines. The discussion will cover new policy proposals around Teen Safety and Harassment, and will further clarify existing Adult/18+ guidelines based on recent creator feedback. Your feedback is a huge part of how policy at Patreon is formed, and no changes will be finalized until we've had a chance to talk with you about them. The last policy livestream had a record number of attendees, and we'd love to keep you just as involved as we close out 2025.

I wanna delete or at least private my twitter account, but that's where our authoritarian MPs and PM and Ofcom predominantly post, so I'm stuck there until things get better politically.

Pretty sure this will clear things up and adding that smiley face will make it less hurtful 😂🤣
A comic with four panels. Panel 1 — a dog and cat being anthropomorphized wearing human clothes, has the cat working at a computer. The cat says, ‘how do I make my email friendlier?’ Panel 2 — the dog, who is holding a coffee and a cell phone says, ‘Maybe add a smiley.’ Panel 3 — The cat, sitting in front of the computer says, ‘That’s a good idea.’ Panel 4 — the email reads, “to: colleague I think your presentation sucks :)

The masked burglar broke into the closed Virginia liquor store early on Saturday and hit the bottom shelf. The bandit was something of a nocturnal menace: bottles were smashed and alcohol pooled on the floor.

The suspect acted like an animal because, in fact, he's a raccoon.

people like Ana and others are doing their best to get the news out on topics like paypros discrimination, censorship etc, but we have limitations as individuals and our own platforms arent infinite

one way YOU can make a huge impact is by helping get the word out via contacting journalists!

I think if people want journalists to cover this, they’re going to have to start bugging journalists and publications to cover this

The term "otrovert" feels like a stretch. It's like the "sigma" or "I'm not like other girls" of social profiles. It's basically just introversion, considering introverts tend towards social detachment anyway.

I emailed my representative yesterday expressing concerns about this set of bills and got a call back back that was incredibly thoughtful, thanking me for reaching out and reiterating its on my reps radar and she appreciated me sharing my opinion

Keep calling and messaging your reps!

Some potential good news out of yesterday's theatrical House hearing on internet censorship bills. A pre-emption provision has even KOSA supporters like NCOSE abandoning the House version.

With ten days to go, there seems to be little appetite for KOSA or age-verification bills in general.

This is REALLY COOL

"Peatlands cover 3% of the Earth's surface, but store 1/3 of the world's carbon - double the amount sequestered in all the world's forests. Peat can hold 20x times its weight in water to prevent floods"

Great @wired.com reporting on the growing movement against online "age verification" legislation

(aka government mandated ID checks and face scans to access apps, websites and information online)

Congrats to my colleague @sarahephilips.bsky.social leading work on this.
The Age-Gated Internet Is Sweeping the US. Activists Are Fighting Back
Half of the country now requires age verification to watch porn or access “harmful” content. Digital rights advocates are pushing back against legislation they say will make the internet less safe.

Coming here to once again ask that you pick up a phone and try to stop age verification laws from getting passed in your country, lest you want a hacker to take your (or worse, your kid’s) ID from the social media platform you use and sell it to a data broker.
