While I am generally not the target market for any sort of nonconsensual sexual content, there is absolutely no world in which you can trust to the discretion of moderators in judging this sort of thing. It will always end badly, and in a different place from where YOU thought the line was.
Romancelandia: even if you don't read dark romance, the new Bsky guidelines should concern you.
Disallowed: "Illustrated or animated" depictions of nonconsensual adult content.
Why ban fictional depictions of anything? And how will consent be determined from an illustration?

I don't want to start a thing so I'll just say that there will never be a good argument for privatizing USPS. That would be like privatizing libraries. The aim of services isn't to be run for profit, they are for serving the greater good, which USPS has been extremely successful at.

Trans people have been around your whole life. You’ve been sharing bathrooms with them your whole life. They’ve been in your communities your whole life. They’ve even been playing sport your whole life.
And you didn’t care *at all* till a few years ago when every right wing org decided you should

About 10% of foster kids go to college, but many arrive with only a bag of clothes.
So a California non-profit started "Dec My Dorm," raising more than $40,000 to help 140 LA-based students.
Now they're aiming at the other 49 states. #college @theguardian.com

This is not a massive decision or any kind of change. Costco has never carried mifepristone in its pharmacies. An anti-abortion group is taking credit for something that didn't happen, possibly to generate disingenuous left-wing ire against one of the few corporations that hasn't gone MAGA.

Meanwhile, here in Maine, AI crawlers have rendered the server that manages our statewide interlibrary loan unreachable by legitimate attempts to pass through requests/information
Again, but louder: the server can’t be reached by libraries and the folks trying to use them BECAUSE OF AI CRAWLERS.

Gavin, you massive disappointment, what are you doing??
(I mean, I know what you're doing, but I need you to stop)
