and no, I don't mean weird art that's surface level made out of performativity like the slogan but rather support that fat furry or weird tgirl artist drawing her trauma out in mixed media or sex workers trying to get by and be their peers instead of having a bias for what makes YOU comfortable

almost like it's all a performative slogan for people to hide their own bias towards genuinely weird and queer art made by vulnerable members of society dumping their emotions into an art form.

i think you gotta support the weird queers and trans people and sex workers and furries 👍🏾

I really hate that the "we need to get weirder and make weirder art!!!" got adopted by people who morally panic over a pup hood being worn at pride/furry convention and or harass artists offline for...making weird art?

ATTN FELLOW CANADIANS:

An actual MP has created a petition to stop financial discrimination against adult creators by payment processors. You have to confirm your email but thats because its something that can actually be shown to parliament.

Michelle Keep @jmkeep.bsky.social · Sep 3

Canadians! There is a petition to sign to protest Mastercard and Visa's control over the purchase of legal adult content. This is specifically about the Steam & itchio situation, but language protects adult creators.

Update thread #2. Hemlock
One thing we worked on is a different tool to complement Nightshade. We discovered a new attack on diffusion models that is more generalizable than Nightshade. It targets an entirely different part of AI training pipeline, basically making AI models poison themselves.

Still writing out a lotta stuff for Bee... There's a few years where she straight up abandons The Hive and goes solo... and makes unexpected allies during this time, too.

I can't STOP making outfits for her - or drawing her in general - ur honor my apolocheese

#art #oc #originalcharacter

Sketchy ref sheet of my character, going by just Bee at this moment in time, with her outfit for an arc involving another character called Maddox; this arc is where she abandons The Hive and goes solo. There is a fullbody, an upper torso crop showing her wearing a yellow jacket with black stripes (continuing the bee theme), and a note next to it saying that the hood is detachable.

“This bill won’t pass”
“This won’t affect me outside the U.S.”

This is ignorant. These things trickle down. Go educate yourself on censorship. SESTA/FOSTA. KOSA. Age verification in US/UK/Australia. Tumblr bans. Backpage. Visa/Mastercard. ITCHIO. Patreon.

This isn’t the first canary…

This bill would criminalize pornography by legally redefining what it means to be obscene.

Period. Full stop. No more porn legally. If you post porn whether free pics or paid vids. this affects you!

It’s sad how quick every company/government started using the current news to push their own data-stealing pro-censorship agenda. They don’t even care anymore

Cmon, just let Google have your biometrics. Let them choose what you watch. You don’t want kids to be unsafe, do you?

Mike Stabile @mikestabile.bsky.social · Jul 29

YouTube is rolling out "age-estimation" next week to limit content and options for those it's AI-algorithm determines are under 18. Those who are incorrectly flagged will have to verify their age using an ID or biometric scan.

YouTube will identify and restrict minors’ accounts with AI

YouTube will apply several restrictions to underage accounts.

So based on everything happening right now in the USA and the world, I'd like to remind folks that now isn't the BEST time to be using cloud storage for anything important at ALL. If it doesn't meet some vague and bizarre puritanical guidelines which shift daily, companies are now deleting things.

Stop KOSA

KOSA is a censorship bill that won’t make kids safe. Instead, it'll put all internet users at risk, especially youth. If you believe in a free and open internet, tell your lawmakers to reject #KOSA!
