For @purpleproselady.bsky.social ! A cheeky catch-up after battle.

Two characters relax against a bar, sharing drinks. The left is a blue-skinned, white haired woman who regards her own drink somewhat shyly, feigning disinterest. The right is a larger orcish woman with tattoos, whose skin is scuffed with signs of recent battle, who regards her companion with a smug grin. #art 🖌️

May the right fire burn within me.

There is hatred all around me.
But i wont let it win.
I can fight for what I love,
more than against what I hate.

Not my picture but my god this EXACTLY sums up why I'm so done with goddamn internet discourse. Everyone feels they have to have a take. It feels like people are seeking out negativity rather than just... enjoying what they do like.

I genuinely don't wanna be around people who act like this anymore

Feeling very grandma for that one but at least we got there

Nevermind I'm a fool apparently the solution is just searching with the # in place

Anyone know if there's a way that I'm not finding to only see posts that are TAGGED in a search rather than any post even mentioning a piece of media in passing? This is one thing I really don't care for about searching media/fandom tags here.

This platforms moderation is currently unable to tell the difference between artistic/non-sexual nudity and explicit pornography How do you expect them to be able to differentiate between consensual and non-consensual?

and really, I do not believe that everyone needs to "get weirder now," or that everyone needs to "make more nsfw," etc. what I do believe, however, is that everyone should look to those already making that work and sit in dialogue with them. support their work, substantiate their humanity.

as soon as you allow for selective interpretation, everything is on the table. it's not about noncon art, it's about labeling whatever art that inconveniences them noncon. what are you going to do? complain about it? lol

yes, you should, and be loud about it

The upcoming proposed rules surrounding NSFW art are bad and the Bsky mod team should feel bad.

Fellow artists: Remember that even if you don't make NSFW art, rules like these eventually come back to bite us all, especially if we make works about queerness.

also: don't delete your art or accounts in advance, make it hard for them.

This is one of many reasons porn bots are STILL so rampant on even a platform as afraid of nipples as tumblr is. Who is this protecting?

Since it clearly needs to keep being said: censorship does not keep "icky" content from being posted, it just means the poster labeling it appropriately now has a negative consequence and more people will have to see things they could otherwise avoid with filters.

It protects no one.
