The fog of war is lifting

What we are learning is that these two parties are responsible for all of the censorship going on. Banks working with PayPal / Stripe, and card networks like MasterCard

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!

🌄 We've passed $17,000 on a sunny morning. Get over 600 queer games and artworks for $60 (or $10), and put that money directly into the pockets of queer creators who need it.

old assassin au.

Newgrounds' approach to verifying age is interesting and transparent.

A series of infographics featuring the Cartoonist Cooperative's mascots Inkling (an inkwell) and Nibford (a dip pen) as they share information about what a phone or email zap is. Image one shows Inkling on the phone, reading from a script. Text reads, "What is a phone or email zap? A phone (or email) zap is a coordinated campaign where many people contact a target (such as a company, agency, or representative) to apply pressure and demand action on one issue." The Co-op logo and website appear at the bottom of all three images: https://cartoonist.coop/.

Nibford sits at a desk, calling someone on the phone while looking at their computer screen. Text reads, "How can I organize one? Agree on a target and an issue to collectively press for. Gather scripts ahead of time. Coordinate a time when everyone is available to call/email. Hang out IRL or in a voice call together! Log any feedback and share updates with your fellow zappers! Keep it up until demands are met! This is a marathon, not a race."

Inkling and Nibford jump for joy with confetti raining down around them. Text reads, "And most importantly... celebrate your wins!"

Members, the Coop is calling on you to participate in our upcoming zap sessions to take collective action regarding censorship & pay discrimination for 18+, erotic, and NSFW artists.

Look out on Discord for more info about when and how to join, coming soon.

Anthropomorphic dip-pen and inkwell stand infront of a table stacked with books. Pen holds a sign with '18+' drawn on the center, with a heart around it. Inkwell is holding a paper colored rainbow with 'LGBTQA' upon it. Inkwell is holding a hand up in a 'stop' motion. Behind the table is the vague sense of a crowd also holding signs. Above image it reads: "CARTOONISTS Against Adult Content CENSORSHIP"

The Cartoonist Co-op stands against the censorship and pay discrimination of 18+, erotic, and NSFW artists.

Damn you mean itch didn’t actually just abandon these creators but has been working hard with its limited resources to figure out how to continue supporting them? How surprising

We've posted an addendum FAQ to our original blog post about NSFW content. You can read it here: itch.io/updates/upda...

Thank you for your patience as we navigate through this. We're upset too. We're doing what we can but there are still many unknowns at this point.

It's working.

Keep calling.

A lot of NSFW content has been removed from places like Steam and itchio recently, but you might not know this is actually the result of a campaign that has been going on for decades.

Here's how anti-porn groups got the power to censor the internet.

Thank you!!

I made a quick and dirty anti-censorship cheat sheet to help onboard people and direct their energy in a productive direction. This isnt as comprehensive as various websites being shared around, but it should be easy to share and save.

Save the png and repost as widely as you can

Oh no! My work is too hot for Itchio! Following in some fellow creative's footsteps, I'm doing an emergency/farewell sale JUST for the weekend. It runs until midnight tomorrow, and you can get five of my mature, queer, steamy novellas for 50% off! Please spread the word 💚
