Jack Duffy attaches a respirator to his bagpipes to play through tear gas. “I always play it whenever the police retreat because it's like, ‘You fucking ran while we stayed,’” he says.

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)
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!

Thanks to everyone who joined in! I'm very fond of this Robberfly character I made at @frogstaff.bsky.social's request... I'm imagining them as some kind of assassin with a flashy fighting style.

#yutyrannus
Fully coloured illustration of a dappled Yutyrannus lounging along a slope. Mossy, grassy ground lightly covered in freshly settled snowpiles around it; and the warm glow of an evening sunset lights a large, pluming cloud in blooming gold light. The warmth of the scene is entirely from the top of the cloud; the shadows are cool otherwise. The sunset casts gentle rimlighting on the back of the dinosaur's back, neck and head; the furthest edges of the plumage reddish-gold.

Hey btw my bugs and bug allies... If you're looking for a great arthropodology podcast, might I suggest the Arthro-pod?

It's really chill and educational, I've been listening to it on and off since college.

So... Ahaha..... I may have taken this "warm up" a little too far... But she's gorgeous, isn't she? Thanks for the suggestion, @hambonusmaximus.bsky.social !

It's time to pick up that stylus, grab a green tea, and draw until my fingers fall off! Or until four hours pass. Whatever comes first.

I'll be doing another anthro bug warm up followed by comm work!

I want to reintroduce Rochelle 🪳 I like her design but I haven't used her much

She calls herself a survivalist but really she just burglarizes places she thinks are abandoned. She thinks she's a lot stealthier than she actually is

Kind of an awkward PSA because I've had some artist mutuals recommend these sites/tools, but
"ai image detection" tools are snake oil, and I feel like nobody bothered to scrutinize them.

So I opened photoshop cs6, drew a smiley face, and uploaded it to the "accurate" detector:

Think of all the artists who just post commissions. That's all they ever have time for. You don't know what they like or who their OCs are because they're always working.

throw $$ at artists to draw their own shit, please. Like, genuinely, please.

if you want artists to make weirder art, you have to create stable living conditions that allow them to. homogeneity isn't a matter of artists lacking culture-- there are many soulful artists out there-- it's a matter of unregulated corporate dominance combined with artists who cant afford to create
