If a mod can't tell the difference between artistic nudity and explicit sexual content, how are they discerning which "overwhelmed by emotion" tears and expressions are the result of non/dub con vs just being moody?
Most people in that sphere don't even know how best to tag between non vs dub con.

This platforms moderation is currently unable to tell the difference between artistic/non-sexual nudity and explicit pornography How do you expect them to be able to differentiate between consensual and non-consensual?

Hey friends,

During the month of September, my community on twitch unlocked the creation of subscriber inspired "tarot-like" cards!

These ones aren't any of them, just examples of esoteric drawings.
But we'll be starting them today!

See you on twitch in 10 minutes

A digital sketch of a hare with fungal growths erupting out of their eyes and their fur. A moth-like bug sits upon its open mouth, the chitinous back of the insect forms a face. The hare itself also has human hands as front and back paws.
Above their head, the Lepus constellation can be seen as white dots in the sky. Flanking the constellation are two additional hares, their backs are covered in fungus.

Surrounding and also behind the hare, various plants are growing. Two blooming hyacinths are prominently featured.

A digital sketch of a beheaded woman, holding her head in her hands, her head replaced with wrapped twigs in the shape of an inverted triangle and decorated with grape vines. A toad and a snake sit on opposing shoulders.

A digital sketch of a person seated on the dirt, with some plants growing around them. Their head is turned to face the sky - their face erupting in branches, leaves, and flowers, some of which have skulls in them.

A digital sketch of a four armed woman, she has multiple wings growing from her body, and a feathered growth on her head with 6 glowing eyes.
Above her head floats a strange chakra-like structure above a thin crescent shape.

lp; I had no idea porn artists quit because of "porn addiction". Can only imagine it must be shame. Drawing porn has brought me nothing but good things and good people in life

I cant stress enough how much harder it is to get a law repealed than to make sure it never gets passed at all

LP; if you are overwhelmed by trying to find the right words to tell your reps you oppose bills like KOSA and SCREEN, I've reposted scripts! If it's too much, read right from the script. If that's too much, don't not call. Just list the bills and tell them "don't you dare." But say something, please

For real. Especially if you live in a red State, they're always harping on and on about how X and Y need to be banned because of protecting people's identities and protecting people's data, well now is the time to use their words against them.

But really do not let this moment pass you up, call your reps and beat them over the head with evidence that ID verification will lead to uncontrollable sensitive information leaks and identity theft

Here's a previous non-dominant hand illustration, I think this is from 2018?
Made up on the spot, no pencils or planning ahead, ink and watercolour with a brush.

An ink and watercolour painting drawn and painted with my non-dominant hand. It's a painting of a long dead warrior, now a skeleton, foliage growing on their remains, a while python slithers across their corpse.
