retweeting because this is buried at the end of a too long tweet thread but I believe 100% that overusing warning labels is partially about downloading systemic issues including pollution and failure of health care/public policy onto individuals.
its like the carbon calculation 2.0

The vast vast vast majority of ppl who see this warning label will never do this calculation. Hell I've done the calculation and I still feel guilty.
And it's also enabling the downloading of systemic issues (health disparities, pollution, etc) on people unfairly.

Paypal ramps up NSFW censorship by beginning to go after not just adult creators but also customers.
In a lot of ways, this is even more terrifying than the adult creator bans. With them, it's only me at risk, but how do I navigate a space where putting a game on Itch might put customers at risk?

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”

What a malfunctioning hotel light taught me about responding to incidents:
I turned out the lamp after a long day expecting to get a peaceful night of rest. The motion sensitive night light on one side turned off after 45s. The other light didn't. Seconds turned into minutes. I tossed and turned.

I decided to experiment with Scotch Bonnet peppers to make spicy Vodka. I should have worn gloves. It's been 12h, 8+ hand washes, and my hands are still spicy. 😭
On the plus side, i think it bodes well for how spicy the alcohol will end up. 😅

ALRIGHT POPE FRANCIS IS DEAD TIME FOR MY POPE RANT
Pope Francis was a kind mask for the Catholic church in a time of crisis who shied away from fundamental change, and the way he was and is being treated by mainstream news outlets is an indication of his success in shoring up reactionary power.

Ah, Valentines day. The great measure of polyamorous scheduling prowess. A single day that must contain a date with every partner.
Lamentably i've performed poorly this year, and got all but one partner in on the day. My polycule is devastated.
