if you value queer games you should defend porn games not because they're a trojan horse to get at the Good, Virtuous Queer Games you like but because pornography is a driver of queer art, as much in games as in any other form 1/

I am sick of more and more services adding AI. It seems I can't go a day without news of a place adding it.

It's like a virus. If they put out a statement at 2 weeks and we stop, then the next time they censor even more, we'll have to call 4 weeks to get them to even make a statement.

The fight won't be easier to win a year from now. We just have to be relentless, we can't give them a recovery period.

Considering this news + the fact that ChatGPT chats are now discoverable on Google, this is is a reminder to stop feeding these tools your personal information.

***Safety Alert*** Hey streamer peeps, Instagram launched a new feature yesterday that shows your location in real time if your instagram is set to public😬. Luckily it looks like it’s off automatically but it’s always good to double check. I found the map at the top of my DMs

I'm seeing less posts about the Visa and Mastercard situation and I want to make it plain as day. You need to keep calling and bothering them, and losing them money.

Because if we lose this, they are going to cut more and more from what's available until you can only buy what they approve of.

VILE: Exhumed may be banned for sale, but I refuse to let that stop people from playing the game.

It’s now available, for free, at WWW.VILEISBANNED.COM

Please share the site, share the game, and fuck anyone who tries to control storytelling and expression.

i just remembered that if you're monetized on youtube, you can block certain ads to specific URLs so I have gone ahead and blocked ICE ads. but if you see a smaller channel with these ads, just no they didn't choose it and have no control.

#SaveSpeech

Remember, if youre american, contact your reps and urge them not to support KOSA and the SCREEN act!

Unlike Pay-pros, you dont need to waste time. All they NEED is to know is that you dont support it. Heres some talking points if desired tho:

let's quote this with something helpful for creators instead, since they do have very little control.

Youtubers: Studio - Earn - Watch Page ADs - Ad Categories - Manage - Block Politics + Law & Government (most likely to have ICE ads)

More Tips in Comments 🧵 [ ICE ADs Resource ]

ARTISTS! if you have an old drawing tablet that doesn't have any drivers available anymore or is just unsupported now, i HIGHLY recommend checking out opentabletdriver.net

my old wacom bamboo is now unsupported and you can't even get old drivers anymore, works perfectly (even in windows 11).

VILE: Exhumed is a game about searching through an old computer, uncovering dark secrets, and experiencing the horrors of parasocial obsession and misogyny. There are references to sexual assault and violence against women, as well as depictions of gore – this was never a secret. This was the point. It was intended to be released for sale on July 22, 2025 on Steam – the largest video game storefront in the world. Instead, it was removed from Steam and banned for sale. VILE: Exhumed was not banned for its use of gore, or its intense themes – themes that are sensitive but many players related to – it was wrongfully banned for “sexual content with depictions of real people.” The game covers topics of assault, abuse, and entitlement, and uses a combination of FMV and practical effects to create images as horrifying as the themes. This was never a secret. There are a lot of intense visuals in VILE: Exhumed, but there is no uncensored nudity, no depictions of sex acts, and no pornography whatsoever – which is one of the justifications bad actors are using right now to censor games. What this actually results in is taking power and storytelling away from women, other marginalized artists, and ultimately, from everyone. This censorship of my work is a direct attack on creative expression and artistic freedom, and it will not stop with false accusations of sexual content. They will come for anything that speaks more loudly than they do. By giving the game away, for free, to whoever wants to play it, I am doing the same thing I set out to do when I started working on VILE: Exhumed, a game about sexual assault, male entitlement, and misogyny. Taking back my agency. No one is allowed to dictate what kind of horror is acceptable, or what stories are allowed to be told. VILE: Exhumed is now available to download for free as shareware under a CC BY-NC-ND license through a few different methods on this page. This felt like the best option to make the game available to …

VILE: Exhumed, which was banned very shortly before its scheduled Steam release, has been released for free online, including on Github and the Internet Archive. Cara's statement, per the IA page:

We should be able to opt-out of ICE or Government Ads on Twitch.

Created a Twitch User Voice Suggestion for allowing Us to Refuse ICE Recruiting Advertisement on our streams, or Ads of Any Government Body.

twitch.uservoice.com/forums/31021...

#VtuberVsICE #NoICE #Twitch #TwitchUserVoice #FuckICE

Reminder,

Twitch (and other platforms) don't allow creators to control what ads are run on their streams, videos/VODs, podcasts, etc.

PLEASE don't instantly assume we want this. We're very likely just as pissed off (if not more) than you are about this.

Help us yell at the platform instead.

Please raise awareness as much as you can because the hacker using my
\khd002.bsky.social acc has started approaching following/followers with same spam messages and report them to prevent any possible victim..! Thank you..!

Be aware that another shitty bill has been introduced: The SCREEN Act.

If passed, it would require Full. Age. Verification.

Like KOSA, call all your reps & tell them what a horrible idea this is.

Spread this pls.

If you’re scared of being censored or punished by marking it as adult content, you literally won’t.

Just makes it easier scrolling in public so it warns first. Plus people can set to auto-show adult content anyways.

Literally NO excuse to not mark your shit correctly.

I know a few friendos still use FrostyTools to welcome raids. Please kick it tf out. Please. Pick up something like Mixitup where you can set up automatic welcome messages and shoutouts. It's super easy and tutorials exist that show you step by step how to do it.

I found her gofundme! She's already raised 41.5k of her 45k goal for gas, vehicle maintenance, phone/internet costs (for posting the videos), food and supply drives for the community, and emergency funds in case she gets into legal trouble:
