this ad is 38 years old and still looks good, because practical effects hold up SO much better than CGI
concrete example:
farscape (combined budget of ~$175M, 88 eps @44-50min each, roughly $45k/minute)
vs star wars prequels (combined budget of ~$340M, 3 films @140min each, roughly $870k/minute)

This commercial for French's Mustard from 1987 is equal parts charming and also kinda unsettling, but what strikes me is the work that went into the absolutely delightful puppetry and practical effects for a *mustard commercial*!! Imagine that today??

the people working on banning & censoring content dont make the distinction; you making it buys you the "useful for now" label. thats it.
its the same as trying to appear as the 'acceptable kind of queer' to anti-queer people, youre selling out your allies to temporarily appease your enemies.

As a pornographer myself, I feel... weird about creators who make distinctions between porn and other adult/sexual content. If you defend porn, your work will ALSO be defended. Don't be afraid to get down in the mud with us. You're gonna end up here anyway.
there is plenty of sexual content on steam. the problem isn't that valve is denying sexual content (though, as a near-monopoly, that would also be a problem) it's that valve is denying specifically sexual content that is non-pornographic, most notably in the horror genre.

I'm streaming Tuesday at 3:00EST to try to upgrade the RAM in my Atari 520STFM and make a janky composite cable. I'll also be fundraising for The Trevor Project. I'll match every dollar up to $250 raised by the end of the stream:
