Bluesky is not a porn site. It is a social media site that does allow sex workers and doesn't automatically censor sex-related (including explicit content).
Bluesky says it will now block that and other content unless you have scanned your face, identification documents, etc.

the corollary to the absolutely true “one day, everyone will always have been against this” is that they’ll also never truly forgive you for being loud and right long before they were, unless you play along and pretend for them

i wish we’d have a real conversation about how helpless we feel about gaza
about how it is easier to try and ignore the desperation than deal with the fact that we can’t help everyone, that we don’t know how to stop the genocide
how it’s easier to talk about scammers than actual starving people

Also as an addition; sign this petition ASAP if you're someone in the UK.
Rather than just sitting around and doing fuck all, we need to make it clear that this Bullshit OSA won't work. Ever. Nor do folk fucking want it.
Contact your MPs about the bill too.

"age verification rules" are a backdoor to censoring all LGBTQ content of any kind from the internet and the process is well underway under many governments. The tactic is part of Project 2025. But nobody fucking believed it could happen and now here we are.

You're not supposed to be loyal to politicians, it's their job to be loyal to you.
Their positions exist to serve your interests, and you can and should critique them if they fail to do that.

A lot of people are rightfully arguing that they need to stay on Twitter because their livelihoods depend on it, and that's understandable, but I also see that the majority of those who stay there are not making an effort to drive their audience elsewhere.

The best time to leave Twitter was some time in the past ~3 years. But the second best time is now

"when we say acab it doesn't mean we hate individual cops" uhhh yes it does. You willingly and knowingly uphold a corrupt system and you yourself are corrupt. THATS what ACAB means. Stop watering down revolutionary language to make it more palatable to centrists.
Fuck every single individual cop.

I'm as radicalized on trans rights as is possible, and I'm beyond sick of her using our plight to make the case that other fights aren't worth fighting. If your solidarity toward other marginalized people only extends as far as they are useful to you, then of what worth is your fight at all?
Contrapoints recently made a statement on Palestine, and I find this point the most interesting. That was really the only outcome of the outrage over Palestine over the last few years, nothing plus slightly hurting Kamala’s chances?
