and hey on the topic of ID laws
do you really trust Bluesky, whose admin and c-suites physically cannot stop themselves from posting-through-it, to be able to hold onto your fucking govt ID and not leak it in a data breach like Discord?
these policies suck, they are dangerous, call your reps

In Ohio, starting on Monday 9/29, we'll be implementing an age assurance solution similar to what we're doing in South Dakota and Wyoming. Read more here: bsky.social/about/blog/0...
Our Approach to Age Assurance - Bluesky
We’re committed to keeping our community informed as we navigate new regional regulations.

How fucking long do we have to watch society bend over backwards to lionize and sanctify a scumbag that monetized his efforts in multiclassing as many shades of bigotry as his tiny brain could hold? Is the dude that said black women have inferior brains going to be canonized as a fucking saint?

After 9/11 the country fell into full blown "do as we say" mode. People got comfy with torture as long as you called it something else and promised they were "Taliban".
If you WERENT hyper patriotic people would target you.
It was a nightmare.
A pure nightmare...
Evil done with glee.

I was in 8th grade when 9/11 happened. I'm pretty sure that's the last time that violence was ever successfully used to stoke the public into lockstep jingoist sycophancy.
I watched otherwise nice people become islamophobes because they were told to.
Dark times.
That's the 9/11 I won't forget.

It's incredible how the people who have to live with the consequences of powerful people's words and actions are told to be better when those consequences touch the ones in power for a change.

I'm gonna use this blatant example of someone purchasing adult goods being banned to springboard and say:
Now, more importantly than ever, if you are an NSFW creator using any payment provider for invoicing, you must be CAUTIOUS to NOT INCLUDE ANY TERMS that would single you out as an NSFW artist.

PayPal user in the UK lost their account after buying adult ebooks “about monsters and milking,” “some dubcon stuff”
“My account got banned a couple of days ago for making purchases which violate the ToS. Upon querying w/ staff over the phone I've been told that it was ebooks that I've been buying”

While i hesitate to say this was OUR doing, as japanese adult sites have been fighting their own battles here for a while now, this IS proof that these big payment processors can be made to reverse course on adult content
They can bleed. We can do this.

For further context: XCREAM is a site that has an R18+ section hosting JAV material. Visa cards were pulled in June, per a July announcement: en.xcream.net/pages/202507...
On Aug. 8th, XCREAM announced Visa cards are accepted again
en.xcream.net/pages/202508...
What caused the change?

you know what would be really funny?
if people started calling MasterCard saying "I mentioned MasterCard in a Riot/Valorant/League of Legends stream and I got timed out/warned/banned. I don't understand why that would happen. Can you explain it to me?"

there's an episode of The Simpsons where Marge tries to get a violent cartoon pulled from the airwaves, only to discover that the people backing her aren't going to stop at just the art that *she* doesn't like, and that supporting artistic freedom means accepting discomfort.
It aired in 1990.
