DO NOT go back to twitter that is the hitler site. i am dead serious with this shit. its main role as a de-facto organ of the trump admin is to facilitate nazi propaganda. you cannot be posting your doodles on the "euthanize all trans people" forum just because they still allow pornography

'A NSFW ban won't negatively affect me, I don't draw or post porn!'

You sure? Here's how it went down when tumblr did it:

The UK speedran straight from porn to educational material in the regulation-to-censorship pipeline. We were warning people of this kind of thing but it happened faster than I expected.

I dont "NETWORK", I do not "keep a consistent schedule", I don't try to make my art "stand out" on people's feeds. I POST MY ART. And if it flops, I DON'T CARE.

This is going around for some reason, just gonna point out that many studies have been done about porn addiction, held by researchers who believed in porn addiction, only to find that porn addiction is not real and never was. Turns out it was religion.

One thing I cannot emphasize enough in these benighted times is that NO ONE who is not a US Citizen should be crossing the US Border in either direction unless they have no other choice.

It's immensely unsafe.

It’s almost impossible to come up with an exhaustive list of unacceptable products to sell, so often we have to take content reviews one at a time. If an issue arises with your account that isn’t already covered by our policy, then we will contact you and share what options you may have. If you've collected money while in violation of terms, we may be forced to refund or freeze all pending transactions, as accounts that are in violation of our terms are not eligible for payouts.

Itch's new content policy is:

1. We can't tell you what violates the rules.

2. If you violate the rules, we take all your money. Not just the money from that work, ALL your money from EVERYTHING you've ever made.

I don't care how much of a smol bean Itch is, this is not a viable platform.

right now than theyve been in a while. ive honestly been kind of mia just dealing with depression/ptsd. if you are a survivor, please give yourself some grace right now.

ive been researching lolita a lot recently because ive always found the book to be both confronting and comforting to myself as a survivor, strange as that sounds. and in learning more about the historical context of it, its adaptations, and perspectives on survivors i feel things are much worse

also in a similar line to last post- something thats been on my mind a lot lately has been sexual violence and being a survivor. i think the world is very, very cruel to survivors right now. a lot of inroads that were made in the last 5-10 years have started backtracking.

i wouldnt call it praxis, exactly. but i do feel survival is a radical thing in a world that actively wants death.

grip the world, i have felt stronger in the conviction that choosing joy, creative expression, and academic expression is a form of resistance. if it wasnt, the fascists would not be trying so hard to censor it. we need to talk about the erotic, the queer, the filthy.

re- the way fascism is gripping the world right now. ive always felt very conflicted on how limited my ability to impact the world is. i physically cannot protest and my artistic expression has a limited reach. my slow damage review is the biggest thing i done. but as fascism has continued to

“If Valve is going to be the biggest landlord of the entire collective art form known as games, they should at least try to be a cool landlord,” Yang says. “Some may argue we should be grateful that Valve held out for this long against the payment processors? I'm sorry, but gratitude is not a survival strategy for LGBTQ people. Of course we should be alarmed, and of course we should be loud about the dangers.” On Itch, Corcoran says the team is currently conducting a comprehensive audit of content to meet its payment processors’ requirements. Games that have been delisted from search will remain so until that review is complete, after which it will need to instate new compliance rules. Corcoran says that some games will be permanently removed from the platform as part of this review. “These are the stakes: Conservatives will label anything they dislike as pornographic and obscene,” Yang says. “This is the goal of anti-pornography and anti-obscenity laws: conservative control over society.”

megan farokhmanesh wrote a fantastic article on itch, steam, and collective shout.

obscenity is a rightwing term of art used to justify the erasure of adult and queer works. payment processors and rightwing groups are using it to ban all forms of expression.

Australian anti-porn group claims responsibility for Steam's new censorship rules in victory against 'porn sick brain rotted pedo gamer fetishists', and things only get weirder from there Everyone hated that.

So you know how Steam updates their TOS to restrict "NSFW" content at the request of payment processors like Visa and Mastercard?

The group behind that pressure campaign is coming after Itch.io.

If you are selling books on itch, this concerns you.

jp users learning about 'fujoshing out' for the first time probably made my whole week...peak cultural exchange 😭

A good reminder that while Metal Gear Rising was incredibly loud and completely devoid of subtlety, people mistook that for being dumb.

It is not. It's one of the most clear-eyed and pointed political satires AND most plausible takes on cyberpunk around.

It is the Rage Against The Machine of games

i hate this fucking country

i need old white men in power to DIE

its not about kids. its not about safety. its not about medical diagnoses. its about enforcing a binary through violence.

its not just hrt for kids who need it to prevent things like osteoporosis. its forced surgeries, forced hrt, procedures for normalization. an intersex trans person can be put on hrt to normalize them to their agab, but not to transition. ask me how i fucking know

and even then, even then its still bullshit. because a lot of these bills that ban healthcare for trans people have specific provisions to ensure intersex minors can still access care. ive seen some people presume this is a good thing which frankly speaks to an ignorance on intersex experiences

"its not sex based discrimination because were preventing this for everyone. were just ruling on a medical condition" and its a diagnosis only trans people can have. the diagnosis that (under medicalizing definitions) Makes You Trans

im going to be honest the skrmetti decision has been so utterly devastating and exhausting. the courts logic is nonsensical to me not because i dont understand it but because i think its utter fucking bullshit. i have not been doing well mentally this week
