actual cannibal saturn

4 1/2 star review for the 2026 film, Iron Lung, that reads: “I dunno if this is what the girls, gays, and theys meant by wanting to see their blorbos crying and covered in blood, but here we are.”

I saw Iron Lung and I have a lot of thoughts about the commodity of false hope vs the idea of hope for a future even if you won’t get to see the outcome or even know if your sacrifice made a difference…

But also my Letterboxd review is funnier.

Happy birthday!!!

I know you mean the amazing art, but it’s really funny to imagine you mean Soap’s tits… which like also true.

#ghostsoap hunter au 👍thought about giving soap an actual shirt but the tit beckoned

what a thinly veiled way to say 'We're spying on you at all times btw :) oh and if your 35 year old ass plays minecraft you'll be sent to the kids table'

Kinda Fucked Up that in our lifetimes we've gone from "never share personal info on the internet" to "hand over your identity to the most incompetent corporations imaginable".

Tl;dr: The vast majority of adults will never have to interact with our age assurance systems and their experience won't change, because we know Discord and how people use it, so we're designing to respect privacy and deliver a safer experience while minimizing friction for adults. Hey folks – I’ve been on Discord since very early 2016 and actually joined the company in 2017. Safety is one of my areas, so today’s announcement on our blog is something I’ve been pretty involved with. I’ve always cared about Discord's approach to privacy (E2EE for A/V was another of my projects here), so I figured I’d add some more context to today's news. I can say confidently that the vast majority of people will never see age verification. I say this because we launched age assurance in the UK and Australia in 2025, and we have some pretty good data on this now. The idea here is that we can pre-identify most adults based on what we already know (not including your messages!), and that looks to get us pretty far here. No face scans, no IDs, for the vast majority of adults.

And if you are one of the smaller subset of folks that we can't definitively pre-identify, then still, you only have to do it if you're accessing age-restricted servers or channels, or changing certain settings. That's really not most users. (Altho... might be more Redditors, tbh.) Last, I know that there is concern about privacy and data leaks. That's a real concern. The selfie system is built purely client-side, it never leaves your device, and we did that intentionally. That'll work for a bunch of users who aren't pre-identified as adults. But if you do end up in the ID bucket, then yeah, you're right that has some risk. We're doing what we can to minimize this by working with our range of partners (who are different partners than the data leak you read about), and if it's any help, we learned a lot internally from the last issue. But I get if that doesn't necessarily inspire more confidence. Anyway, we’ll be sharing more next month as we get closer to the global roll out about the system, including the technology behind it in March. I honestly wouldn't be happy if we didn't build something good and I am excited about what we’re launching, but please let us know what you think when we share more details. And I really appreciate everybody's feedback here today. We’re definitely reading it!

Discord is already starting to walk things back a little, so people should keep doing what they're doing (cancel Nitro, leave feedback/criticism, direct contact through support tickets/phone/email/etc)

"Don't worry about the Discord thing, it's only NSFW servers and channels that will require age verification! :)"

I could remove every speck of risque imagery/topics from my community and there's still a 50% chance we'd get flagged just because we're openly queer.

It's not actually about the kids.

Haha.

Yeah, I’m fine.

I’m just playing What It Sounds Like on repeat and crying from the sheer hope it gives me for our future, why do you ask?

This did happen... I swear

Make sure you go leave a 1 star review so they hear loud and clear how you feel about this. This is a garbage sellout move

Chiitan thinks of transgender people as my mom and dad
cherish my mom and dad for the rest of my life
I love you all

I will continue to spread the message about transgender people until the day I disappear
I hope that all good-hearted transgender people can live their lives with pride and happiness

If you're gonna read any quote from an article on the game, let it be this one, because I think it sums up a lot of the feelings of fans pretty succintly

I don’t know what to say other than I spent about 13 hours on this. Baroque-Style Call of Duty Erotica was not on my 2026 Bingo Card // Top!💀 for those who have preferences // They drive me insane #ghostsoap #ghoap #gayart #gaynsfwart

Oh my god, so many people are canceling Nitro that it's having issues processing it, cook 'em hard bois.

Just sharing this again for no reason: hothardware.com/news/death-s...

friendly reminder that ao3 gives you the option not to see the stuff you don’t want to see

to me the problem is increasingly less about "new thing is worse than old thing we need to retvrn" it's more like "does anyone else think it's weird all this new stuff reeeeeeally wants to scan my face"

Since all of the "The GOAT" posters keep reminding me that the same animators worked on the Spider-Verse movies & K-Pop Demon Hunters, what would make me really happy is to see Gwen have a HUNTR/X poster on her bedroom wall. Ecstatic if "Golden" was her ringtone for her devices. Do it, Sony.

Discord out here inventing noncon age regression

This is part of a pattern that is impeachable: Trump cuts previously appropriated Congressional funds, but only to states led by Democrats (California, Colorado, Illinois and Minnesota).

If you can make Adobe back away from its plan to cancel Animate, then you shouldn’t have a problem with making Discord reverse course on such a dangerous idea. Go and teach them a lesson.

So with the whole Official Ghoap Valentine’s merch, we can all just agree that Activision wants to bring Soap back so bad so Ghoap can fix sales that it makes them look stupid, right?

I have made a post in the Discord Support forum and I encourage others to do the same or comment on mine to show that this is not something we approve of.

I will not give Discord a chance to harm my identity or sell my data to the highest bidder under the guise of protecting children.

Discord is not making anyone safer by doing this and it is only uprooting the already damaged trust of their patrons.

I have cancelled my Nitro as a result of this breach of trust, I will encourage others to do the same, and if the need arises I will move to another platform.

Rather than implement actual protections, rather than encouraging parents to have a role in their children’s internet safety, Discord is willing to ask us to put ourselves at risk when they’ve proven over and over again they cannot be trusted to safeguard our information.

In October 2025, less than one year ago, Discord was hacked and the personal photos and information of 70,000+ users was exposed without their consent. Discord expects us to trust them and a 3rd party vendor with the same information that they’ve managed to keep unsecured on 3 different occasions.
