Lawmakers to consider 19 bills for childproofing the internet KOSA is back, along with more than a dozen other bills that will erode free speech and privacy in the name of protecting kids.

Congress is attempting to fast track KOSA and more than a dozen bills that would restrict internet access, censor speech and increase surveillance under the guise of protecting children.

Committee hearings begin tomorrow.

They’re describing it as a “shock and awe” campaign, which is why it’s essential to show them there’s huge opposition NOW. Call / email your reps to let them know you oppose censorship bills like KOSA and the SCREEN.

Read up and get involved in the @fightforthefuture.org Week of Action.

Today and tomorrow need as many calls as you can muster!

Keep calling visa and mastercard!

I got banned from Ko-Fi for THIS drawing. It’s absolutely not “tHe MoSt eXtReMe NsFw aCcOuNtS.” You and your community are being attacked.

Tell your lawmakers to oppose the Kids Online Safety Act- there are better ways to protect kids online without throwing other vulnerable people under the bus.

Please keep putting pressure on PayPal. Stories like this are becoming more and more common. Artists don’t deserve to lose their source of income over payment processors being puritanical/anti-small business.

A few hours later, he sends me an example of how he’s been using AI. It’s a “hidden role deduction” game he’s working on. At the top is the prompt he put into ChatGPT: “You are five blind lesbian adventurers out for a good night out. Slaying dragons and whatnot. But one of your number is a hulking great troll pretending to be a woman. Find the troll lesbian and then devise an amusing punishment without giving him an erection.

Graham Linehan is a normal and well man.

The call campaign is having an effect! The pressure right now is integral, if you are making calls, PLEASE KEEP CALLING. If you havent called yet or took a break, now is a GREAT time to hop on and add to the pressure!

Please watch this.

The Senate killed a bill to ban state regulation of AI by a vote of 99-1 this spring. Now the industry - eager to stay unregulated - and Trump are scheming to shove the provision in the national defense bill.

You need to know this, so you can help stop it.

Re: Graham Linehan

Frank Fontaine got a point

Nobody's clamouring for AI games, nobody's mad that games don't feature AI, there's a total and utter lack of demand for it. The only demand is from business heads who think it'll save them money, audiences and creatives are rejecting it.

Trans people have exhaustively detailed the links between the anti-trans and anti-abortion movements, we warned that transphobia was a wedge issue for the religious right to roll back women's rights, only for us to be ignored, and of course UK TERFs are setting their sights on abortion.

Hey folks, I often do posts calling for indie developers to link me their games so I can signal boost them. Today I want to do something similar for all trans creatives.

If you are a trans game dev, artist, writer, streamer or YouTuber, reply here with a link to your work. Only one rule: no GenAI.💜

In addition to calling your reps, this website has both a lot of information explaining why these bills are bad/ why section 230 must be protected, as well as petitions to sign for each individual issue!

Signing petitions helps! Make your calls, sign petitions!

I know that "man the future sucks I was promised rocket cars" is old hat but fuck me, "the AI that runs the bank's fraud department denied my transaction because it believed my tastes in porn were wrong" is some esoteric dystopian bullshit

This new version of Chat Control is apparently being pushed through a backdoor and could possibly be voted on TOMORROW

Contact your MP/MEPs and demand that chat control be OPPOSED

We're not in theoretical "they could come after sfw queer content LATER" territory anymore. It is being used to come after sfw queer content NOW.

Spread this around, send the article to any and every news outlet/content creator you can think of. The alarms need to be sounded

And KEEP CALLING

PLEEEEASE keep calling payment processors genuinely this shit continues to go on behind the scenes even months after sites like itch cave and do some sweeping ban and do a little "oooh we're sowry,,"

Bullying from a one sided group caused this crackdown on queer spaces, bully those bastards back

Sam Altman and every other executive at OpenAI criminally liable for the deaths they've caused and all of their personal fortunes distributed to the families of their victims, then jail for a thousand years, and the company liquidated, absolute complete dismantling of OpenAI.

starting Nov 1st we're entering the holiday season, which is a big stress point for big businesses like Mastercard and Visa. These Paypros havent stopped cracking down on Adult Content, so we need to jump back into calling them in full force again!

NEW: Since October 2023, the IDF Spokesperson's Unit has released dozens of 3D animations illustrating alleged Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iranian sites The style is unmistakable: satellite zoom-ins, black & white wireframes, and red-textured houses - a new visual language of war.Our analysis of 43 official IDF videos found recycled 3D environments, spatial inaccuracies, and assets lifted from unrelated artists and institutions.We traced over 30 unique assets to Washington-based 3D creator Ian Hubert, who makes bespoke models created for his sci-fi project Dynamo Dream, available to his Patreon subscribers. Models of parking lots, antennas, + pipes were repurposed as Hamas and Iranian military sites

@evanhill · 11m Fascinating work here tracing how the IDF recycled 3D assets from a cyberpunk sci-fi art project, the Scottish Maritime Museum and elsewhere to populate its widely-seen models of supposed enemy locations in Gaza, Lebanon and Iran. One of the most infamous, the alleged underground Hamas command center at Al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza City, used to justify an unprecedented assault on the biggest medical center in Gaza, was actually an animation the IDF had used the previous year, saying at the time it was a tunnel beneath a UN school.

Losing my mind and what look like video game assets but instead were used to justify war crimes and genocide in the real world

The voting day's coming closer so let's up the pressure for the most vital player in the vote as much as possible!

Hit those phone-lines!!!!
