Fight for the Future

🚨‼️As of yesterday KOSA is at 64 cosponsors with @vanhollen.senate.gov + @kim.senate.gov - who claim to support LGTBQ+ rights but are clearly okay with supporting legislation that’ll censor us off the internet- newly signed on.

You know what to do: www.stopkosa.com

Article excerpt with text that reads The third and final way lawmakers are advancing anti-LGBTQ+ censorship is by reintroducing KOSA, the fake online safety bill, that would establish a “duty of care” for apps and websites used by young people, requiring them to use censorship to “prevent and mitigate” harms like anxiety and depression. KOSA takes the same logic of the bans on drag shows and LGBTQ+ books and applies it to the internet, allowing censorship of a broad range of information in the name of protecting kids from real online harm.

SESTA/FOSTA backfired miserably.

The UK's age verification law backfired miserably.

The TikTok ban is backfiring miserably.

So of course @blumenthal.senate.gov has decided now is a great time to revive the terribly written Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA) which will ... spoiler... backfire miserably

more of my PonyKids

text on top says "I NEED SOME STRONG BOYS TO CARRY THESE CHAIRS", said by a teacher offscreen. Applejack and Rainbow Dash are both holding an excessive number of chairs, seemingly struggling, and glaring at each other.

Pinkie Pie and Rarity sit at a brown table. Pinkie Pie is weaving a blue and yellow string friendship bracelet, meanwhile Rarity is leaning forward to apply mascara to Pinkie's eyelashes. she looks concentrated.

Rarity is standing, leaning forward, looking upset, and saying "HOW". Applejack and Pinkie Pie are both kneeling on the floor looking guilty. on the floor is a number of muddy footprints, a smashed pink cupcake, and pink footprints of the icing. the mud is visible on the bottom of Applejack's shoes, and icing is visible on Pinkie's shoes.

Twilight Sparkle is standing, looking at Fluttershy, who is kneeling, facing away from her. Fluttershy is extending her finger towards a bee perched on a small bush. Twilight is asking, "what're you doing?" Fluttershy says, "if you're slow and gentle, you can pet a bee." Twilight says "oh my gosh"

Fuck it I'm posting the funny Motobug girl here

#gijinka #oc #sonicthehedgehog #sonic #badnik

A humanized version of the Motobug, a Badnik found throughout the Sonic the Hedgehog series (though mainly based on how it appears in Sonic 1). Her name is Tara, but she's nicknamed Mo. She has light skin and freckles on her face. She has big round eyes with eyelashes and slightly crossed pupils. A beanie with a restitched spot hides her blonde hair, looking like the Badnik's shell. Two strands come out of it, looking like the Motobug's antennas. Her hair is shaped like the Motobug's arms, the spiky-looking hair accessories looking like its claws. She also shares a similar mouth shape to the Badnik, wearing a frown and buck teeth. She wears an open liberty blue hoodie and a large shirt with a singular line pattern crossing through it. She carries around a bag which also looks like the Motobug's shell, the exhaust pipes being represented as side pockets. She's carrying it using black straps. She also wears plain gray pants and red-yellow hiking shoes.

I've seen a lot of posts incorrectly say you have to call your reps about the SCREEN Act. while the Screen Act is definitely worth calling about, that is not what is being brought before the Senate on thursday

What you need to call your reps about is the "S.5260 Interstate Obscenity Definition Act"

Mike Stabile @mikestabile.bsky.social · May 8

Well, here we go. The GOP has just introduced a bill to effectively outlaw all pornography.

The bill dismantles the Supreme Court's Miller Test for obscenity, removing provisions that the content be patently offensive to community standards.

KOSA is being reintroduced today.

It's always been a dangerous censorship bill.

But in this environment, with Trump weaponizing every aspect of the Federal government to suppress speech he doesn't like, KOSA is a catastrophic attack on human rights.

We have to stop it.

StopKOSA.com

Stop KOSA

KOSA is a censorship bill that won’t make kids safe. Instead, it'll put all internet users at risk, especially youth. If you believe in a free and open internet, tell your lawmakers to reject #KOSA!
