#bskycensorship awful to see yet another website cave its back in on censorship because it cannot handle art where characters dont look at the viewer and explicitly say ‘I Consent’ before fuckin

actions that will contribute more to pushing against bluesky's censorship than a blackout:

-submitting a feedback request
-@ing moderation about it
-commenting on mods posts about it
-making and sharing memes (ex: "i consent!" sticker)
-leaving an app store review
-just generally posting about it

Look at this question.

These motherfuckers. FUCK YOU YES IF YOU WANT MY MONEY THEN YOU BETTER GODDAMN BE WILLING TO FOOT THE COST OF COLLECTING IT.

Assholes just set a quarter of a billion on fire to make a concentration camp they only used for 60 days YOU'RE GODDAMN RIGHT YOU SHOULD PAY FOR TAXES

Question from the survey: "While a program operated by the IRS is free to you, setting up and running the program is expected to have an initial cost to the federal government of at least $10-$20 per return processed. Knowing this information, which of the following statements applies to you?"

Authors celebrate “historic” settlement coming soon in Anthropic class action

Advocates fear such settlements will “financially ruin” the AI industry.

Call them anyway.
Ignore their directive.

Email them as well.

Flood them.
They wouldn't even be trying to redirect all of these complaints if the pressure wasn't making them uncomfortable.

after a very frustrating call with Visa (US+CAN), I was told that Visa would like inquiries relating to using their bargaining power to destroy adult media to be sent, via email, to

[email protected]

they asked. to be sent. emails. you know what to do.

personally i think when communicating with businesses like The Card Companies you're better off roleplaying a frustrated customer who wants to spend money. you are just a normal fuckin guy and who are they to tell you how to spend your money? it's a free country. you're an adult with income.

Reposting links when it's not ass o'clock but if bigots can yell at visa and mastercard then so can we. This is a nightmare timeline for nsfw creators and creators as a whole, so if you're someone who enjoys my work or anyone else's we need all hands on deck if we want any shot at all

instead of vowing to take itch down with your justified anger, redirect that anger at the institutions who are directly responsible for strong arming every single platform that sells adult and/or queer art:

Collective Shout, the group that took credit for bullying Mastercard into recently censoring more platforms, stated that apparently it took them ~1000 phonecalls to convince them to give them what they wanted?

We got like way more people than that don't we?

Me: A priest makes deals with multiple demons = fun times!
My brain: Oh, but what is the price for the deal? What does he pay? Is he still the same after? Is it metaphorical or physical? What if you call it "Theseus's Body"? You fucking love puns - don't walk away from the computer you asshole -

Trying to come up with plots for porn comics is fun but it's also really easy to get distracted in the nitty gritty world building I don't think I actually have the spoons for.

You know what, maybe I prefer this version as a wip post, having all the colors in there already is doing too much and detracts from the lines

(thanks for liking that other wip, though <3) #art
