I haven't talked about this particular part of it, because there's not much productive about it I can do from this account, but if I start doing SFW stuff, I need to do it from a separate account, totally isolated from Paypal/etc.. Basically start from scratch.

Otherwise it might get "associated."

Friend tried to donate to my Throne, flagged by fraud detection at Bank of America — bank identified the transaction as specially for “giantess voretuber Ana Valens”

I suspect I faced those Patreon / Ko-fi dings b/c financial institutions have me, specifically, on record as a high risk recipient!

Trans rights are not the rights of a minority. They are everyone’s rights to autonomy, to self-determination of our health and identities.

Attacks on trans rights are not attacks on a minority. They are steps to stripping everyone’s ability to live their own lives with independence and dignity.

Some amazing gay history. Listen up kids.

I'm watching that documentary "Before Stonewall" about gay history
pre-1969, and uncovered something which I think is interesting.

The documentary includes a brief clip of a 1954 televised newscast
about the rise of homosexuality. The host of the program interviewed
psychologists, a police officer, and one "known homosexual". The
"known homosexual" is 22 years old. He identifies himself as Curtis
White, which is a pseudonym; his name is actually Dale Olson.
So I tracked down the newscast. According to what I can find, Dale
Olson may have been the first gay man to appear openly on television
and defend his sexual orientation. He explains that there's nothing
wrong with him mentally and he's never been arrested. When asked
whether he'd take a cure if it existed, he says no. When asked whether
his family knows he's gay, he says that they didn't up until tonight, but
he guesses they're going to find out, and he'll probably be fired from
his job as well. So of course the host is like ... why are you doing this
interview then? and Dale Olson, cool as cucumber pie, says "I think
that this way I can be a little useful to someone besides myself."

1954. 22 years old. Balls of pure titanium.

Despite the pseudonym, Dale's boss did indeed recognize him from
the TV program, and he was promptly fired the next day. He wrote into
ONE magazine six months later to reassure readers that he had gotten
a new job at a higher salary.
Curious about what became of him, I looked into his life a little further.
It turns out that he ultimately became a very successful publicity
agent. He promoted the Rocky movies and Superman. Not only that,
but get this: Dale represented Rock Hudson, and he was the person
who convinced him to disclose that he had AIDS! He wrote the
statement Rock read. And as we know, Rock Hudson's disclosure had
a very significant effect on the national conversation about AIDS in the
U.S.

When Bluesky faces backlash but doesn't want to admit anything has gone wrong, their default move is to retreat backwards and go silent. This happens every single time.

I'm sure their preference would be to say nothing and just wait for the new ToS to go into effect.

Conservatives are now suing individual games, not just distributors.

At every single step of this fight, critters have been looking for technical solutions out of it. First it was "well, just use a VPN." Next up, "just publish to your own website."

This is a political problem.

Florida's Attorney General has filed lawsuits against platforms featuring adult games, claiming they fail to verify age of visitors.

It's a sign that AG, who is simultaneously attacking LGBTQ literature as pornography, intends to interpret the age-verification broadly.

If you're a reporter or a news org and you covered Mastercard/Visa's original statements that they don't censor legal art, I would think you'd be really interested in them saying that *fantasy* is a banned category of adult material.

Seems like that's worth a comment!

Woke up to quite the update on this. I had been in contact with Payment Cloud about getting their service and they waited until now to hit me with the image below. Again, stringing me along instead of being upfront. They had seen my website multiple times before this.

Technology designed by communities for communities, better equipped to meet everyone's needs because it doesn't reduce or paper over the user's identity and specific situations, instead it empowers that user to bring their identity into the software design. Open source is personal.

Sammy McSammerson: do you think that bullshit like this might have something to do with why 3-founder AI grifting companies are getting drowned in investor money? Maybe?

You think it might contribute a little bit?

When the moon hides behind the branches, and only light is those eyes, and he wants his pleasures sated, you serve your purpose.

You bury under a leviathan body, coating yourself in the scent of mulch and musk, as his shaft slicks over your face - wet, heady - barbs catching at your lips...

Used to be, once upon a time, that the distinction was clear. There was the town, and then there was the wilds. One was ordered, and bright, and safe. The other was untamed, and dark, and dangerous.

These days? It's changed a little. The town's still the town. But the wilds ain't untamed at all.

They're his domain.

You figured that out a few months ago, didn't you? Wandering into the trees for the first time, an empty lil' ball clutched in one hand. I'm gonna be the very best. Dreams of little pidgeys and cute spinarak, what would you find first...?

But it was the King of the woods that found you. White lights hanging in the branches, that you mistook to be little fireflies high in the boughs, until you realised they were eyes, glaring at prey...

And the dream was gone, not even an hour after it began, and...

You were lucky. He liked you. Or, at least, found you useful. You guess it's useful to have a two-legger around. Making fire. Bringing prey as tribute. And...

And in the cool, damp nights. When the moon hides behind the branches, and only light is those eyes, and he wants his pleasures sated, you serve your purpose. You bury under a leviathan body, coating yourself in the scent of mulch and musk, as his shaft slicks over your face. Wet, heady, strands of pre connecting you to it. A taste you'll never get out of your mouth, a touch you'll never forget, barbs as long as your finger teasing your ragged clothes catching at your lips...

You catch yourself wondering, sometimes, between these moments - why do you submit so easily? Why do you fall under his paws so readily, and your legs refuse to run when he lets you up...?

And in these moments, you remember. As he lifts his body up, and a single drop of pre splashes on the ground, and you feel the urge to lick up the puddle it makes. It's all so clear...
