The official Canadian Petition to reign in payment processor censorship has stalled out just under 10k signatures.

This is a reminder for Canadians, this is an OFFICIAL petition that will be responded to. Show your support in protecting our free speech!

www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en...
e-6695 (Consumer protection) Keywords Censorship Credit cards Internet Pornography E-petition Initiated by Carmen Tam from Waterloo, Ontario Original language of petition: English Petition details Petition to the House of Commons Whereas: Mastercard, Visa, and other payment platforms have been leveraging their power over consumer ability to purchase legal content; In 2021, Mastercard changed its policies to regulate adult entertainment by preventing the use of its payment platform on numerous adult entertainment sites; As of July 2025, video game distribution service Steam now cites rule 15, that “adult only” content is not permitted on the platform if it goes against payment processor’s policies. Steam does not describe what content is defined as “adult only”; As of July 2025, video game distribution website Itch.io has “deindexed” all adult NSFW content from browse and search pages. Users that previously purchased legitimate video games cannot access games that have been removed; and This has set an unsettling precedent of corporate censorship, causing concern in video game development teams, including developers, voice actors, and artists in other creative fields as their livelihoods are in limbo. We, the undersigned, citizens of Canada, call upon the House of Commons to 1. Stop financial discrimination by payment platforms against legal goods and services; 2. Ensure transparency to consumers about content restrictions and the rationale behind them; and 3. Protect creators' rights to make legal adult content and ensure a fair appeals process for any penalized media.

Every year I prepare an oblique Kinktober prompt list that's more about interpretation than specific kinks. Posting now for those that like to prepare ahead - feel free to steal, reference and repost this graphic, no credit necessary! Porn is reward enough for me.

Scientists are far from knowing all of the complexities of Earth's ocean. With this comic, we explore some of what scientists do know, like its role as one of the world's largest carbon sinks and how…

Don’t let Ken Sim get away with this!
copevancouver.bsky.social COPE: The Coalition of Progressive Electors @copevancouver.bsky.social · Aug 20
The City’s 2026 Budget process is now open.

We're fighting against Ken Sim and ABC's austerity and threats to public services.

With your help, we can stop these cuts.

Take the survey by calling 311 or clicking here: www.shapeyourcity.ca/2026-budget

More info: www.votecope.ca/news/action-...
Act Now: Stop Ken Sim's Cuts to Public Services! Participate in the 2026 Vancouver Budget Survey. COPE's Top Priorities 2026 budget survey #1) Stop ABC's Handout to the Wealthy: Mayor Ken Sim is seeking a property tax increase as low as 0% for 2026. This handout to the rich will mean cuts to services, austerity, increased user fees, and neglected infrastructure. #2) Protect Public Services, Staff & Infrastructure: Sim's tax gimmick will mean cuts to public services, infrastructure, and the unionized staff that make the city work for people. #3) Boost Library Funding & Increase Hours: Under ABC, library hours are already being cut. A previous COPE motion to support libraries is going to be on the chopping block if there are new cuts. Vancouver must library users and library workers. "Council Priorities" The survey pushes you to pick only 3 priorities, inappropriately pitting reconciliation, climate, housing and public services against each other. We've flagged priorities that relate to cuts. "Financial Pressures" Staff originally said 6-7% was needs for 2026, but the survey's maximum is 5%, likely meaning at least some cuts. It would be ideal if a significant contingent of survey respondents advocated for 6-7% in the 'other' box.

A stylized painting of someone masturbating, but with multiple fake pop-ups blocking parts of their body. The popups read: "Sorry, this content is not approved for viewing." "Please prove to your holy governing body that you are a law-abiding citizen of legal age to continue thirdpartyIDverification.trustusbro.org" and "Reasons for restriction: Lack of artistic merit, obscene content, depiction of gross indulgence, not christian". To the side, there is a cursor with ?! beside it in a speech bubble.

the usual vagueness is present here that is usually a bad sign to come for adult content.

A pixel art drawing of an interior view out a window onto a field. In the field, there is a crashed spaceship and a figure beside it. Inside, there's a woman in the foreground. Bright white text reading ACT ONE is in the center of the screen. A pixel art drawing of an anthro dog emerging from a doorway. Smoke billows out around him. Bright white text reading ACT TWO is in the center of the screen. A pixel art drawing of an ominous figure in a dim cell. Light beams down on them from a barred window on the wall above. Bright white text reading ACT THREE is in the center of the screen.

Anthropomorphic dip-pen and inkwell stand infront of a table stacked with books. Pen holds a sign with '18+' drawn on the center, with a heart around it. Inkwell is holding a paper colored rainbow with 'LGBTQA' upon it. Inkwell is holding a hand up in a 'stop' motion. Behind the table is the vague sense of a crowd also holding signs. Above image it reads: "CARTOONISTS Against Adult Content CENSORSHIP"

Folks call your Senators now!! A ban on any state laws on GenAi for 10 YEARS is gonna do unthinkable harm!

For those of you wondering what to say here are two posts you can use to build your own script (use alt script to cut and paste)

Need to find your representatives? Here you go:
5calls.org
User Zachary Berger recommends the following script: "I'm a constituent in the congressperson's district. Al regulation is life or death for a lot of the Congressperson's constituents in creative industries, please make sure the section in the budget reconciliation bill banning Al regulation doesn't pass." User Karla Ortiz gives information on the bill so you can point your senators where to look: Call your representatives! Tell them just yesterday (R) Congressman Guthrie added a new text to the Budget Reconciliation bill to BAN GenAi regulation in the states for 10 years! Hell, point them to the specific section: TITLE IV-ENERGY AND COMMERCE (Part II: Al section, (c) moratorium)

Loud and clear #queerart #sekrapdraws #digitalart
A white blonde man stands with his back to the viewer. He is wearing tightly fitted jeans and has a blue bandana stuck in his back right pocket, with one hand poised on his hip, that same forearm littered with small pockmark scars. The man is outlined in white which has a small drop shadow, implying that he is a sticker atop a bold orange background depicting the traditional pattern of a bandana.

in light of this… maybe go drop your favorite fic author a subscribe. drop a comment on a fic you like, especially if you keep coming back back to it. foster a little engagement and discussion. share work you enjoyed.

imo there’s no better time to let writers know they’re valued and irreplaceable.

A new guy! woah! #oc #ocart #sekrapdraws
This sketch page is entirely in purple. Unrefined lineart depicts a Black man with short and styled afro hair and a very thin mustache playing several different instruments. In the bottom left corner, he is hunched over a piano as his fingers fly across the keys. On the right, he is looking backwards over his shoulder and leaning back as he plucks a banjo. In the upper center, he plays a trumpet with great effort and intention. In the upper left, he plays a fiddle with his eyes closed as he focuses on the music. Each sketch is roughly coloured in and has a white drop shadow, while the sketches are surrounded by random white dots and dark purple music notes.
