If the AI bubble really is bursting, please take this lesson from it:
Nothing marketed to you this relentlessly is ever worth it. If it was, they wouldn’t need to beg you.

gAI art is bad because it's stealing labor.
stealing labor from art is easy because no one sees art as labor, they see it as talent.
they see it as talent because it's easier to believe they have a right to hate you because they can't stand they gave up and you didn't.
fuck them, pay labor.

It might be good to include these talking points when you call Visa/Mastercard.
"So you support Roblox, a website/app known to endanger children, but you refuse to support legal adult content? What kind of message are you sending to customers?"

Mastercard, Visa and Paypal can excuse an unsafe website like Roblox, which is aimed at children and is suing people who collaborate with authorities to arrest predators but they draw the line when Steam doesn't want to remove adult games that don't pretend to glorify some topics

If you think the process of making art is agonizing, either try a different medium or realize you're not a creator. It's ok. Artists like the process. Otherwise, we wouldn't do it. At the very least, get the rubber out of your mouth. You're only giving these AI companies the distraction to succeed.

NEWS: SCOTUS allows Mississippi to enforce a restrictive internet-access law without explanation. Kavanaugh writes to say it is likely unconstitutional but he is voting to allow it, only repeating the legal rule for his reasoning.
No one else wrote a word.

![SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES
No. 25A97
NETCHOICE, LLC v. LYNN FITCH, ATTORNEY
GENERAL OF MISSISSIPPI
ON APPLICATION TO VACATE STAY
[August 14, 2025]
The application to vacate stay presented to JUSTICE ALITO and by him referred to the Court is denied.
JUSTICE KAVANAUGH, concurring in the denial of the application to vacate stay.
I concur in the Court's denial of NetChoice's application for interim relief because NetChoice has not sufficiently demonstrated that the balance of harms and equities favors it at this time. See Response in Opposition 37-39.
To be clear, NetChoice has, in my view, demonstrated that it is likely to succeed on the merits-namely, that enforcement of the Mississippi law would likely violate its members' First Amendment rights under this Court's precedents. See Moody v. NetChoice, LLC, 603 U. S. 707
(2024); Brown v. Entertainment Merchants Assn., 564 U. S. 786 (2011); cf. Free Speech Coalition, Inc. v. Paxton, 606 U.S. _ (2025). Given those precedents, it is no surprise that the District Court in this case enjoined enforcement of the Mississippi law and that seven other Federal District Courts have likewise enjoined enforcement of similar state laws.
See No. 1:24-cv-170 (SD Miss., June 18, 2025);
NetChoice, LLC v. Yost, 716 F. Supp. 3d 539 (SD Ohio
2024); Computer & Communications Industry Assn. v.
Paxton, 747 F. Supp. 3d 1011 (WD Tex. 2024); NetChoice, LLC v. Reyes, 748 F. Supp. 3d 1105 (Utah 2024); NetChoice, LLC v. Bonta, 770 F.

Regardless of how well or poorly you think Itch handled the situation that Stripe shoved onto them, keep the pressure on the payment processors.
If you get completely fixated on Itch's missteps (and I think they made some real ones), then you're giving the actual source of the problem a free pass.

No lie, this calling campaign is one of the most effective levers we have at the moment.
If we sustain the campaign through the financial quarter we'll be sending a strong message that this administration is bad for business.
Please continue making censorship unprofitable.

We're not in theoretical "they could come after sfw queer content LATER" territory anymore. It is being used to come after sfw queer content NOW.
Spread this around, send the article to any and every news outlet/content creator you can think of. The alarms need to be sounded

I went to a star wars con this past weekend and it was wonderful to see even a small section of what the actual fandom is like. Age ranges across the board, and even tho it did skew toward white men, I saw plenty of others there in different demographics. Star War is for everyone ♥️

The Octopath Traveler series has not sold badly.
Octopath Traveler - 3-4m
Octopath Traveler II - 1-2m
The Octopath series sold over 5m copies.
It's not at Final Fantasy, Dragon Quest or Kingdom Hearts level but dev costs aren't as high either.

It starts with delisting games, but the likely goal is to enact a new morality police that can silence marginal groups and anyone who speaks out against the status quo.

The recent wave of restrictions of pornography (including kink / fetish stuff) in art, games, videos, etc. by payment processors and puritan groups runs to the political sphere at top. This recent censorship is a part of Project 2025, as it turns out. It's no conspiracy. THEY WANT TO CENSOR US!
