Beyond cancelling Nitro, contact your lawmakers. Everything they propose is beyond legally dubious, from possible ADA, CCPA, CALOPPA etc. violations to possible defiance of EU Privacy and digital ID laws.
Discord Launches Teen-by-Default Settings Globally

As a user affected by the Australian rollout: they're lying about pre-verification. Every Australian Discord user with whom I regularly interact is over 30, but we were still all required to verify
legendofnerd.bsky.social Brian M @legendofnerd.bsky.social · 9h
Discord is already starting to walk things back a little, so people should keep doing what they're doing (cancel Nitro, leave feedback/criticism, direct contact through support tickets/phone/email/etc)
Tl;dr: The vast majority of adults will never have to interact with our age assurance systems and their experience won't change, because we know Discord and how people use it, so we're designing to respect privacy and deliver a safer experience while minimizing friction for adults. Hey folks – I’ve been on Discord since very early 2016 and actually joined the company in 2017. Safety is one of my areas, so today’s announcement on our blog is something I’ve been pretty involved with. I’ve always cared about Discord's approach to privacy (E2EE for A/V was another of my projects here), so I figured I’d add some more context to today's news. I can say confidently that the vast majority of people will never see age verification. I say this because we launched age assurance in the UK and Australia in 2025, and we have some pretty good data on this now. The idea here is that we can pre-identify most adults based on what we already know (not including your messages!), and that looks to get us pretty far here. No face scans, no IDs, for the vast majority of adults. And if you are one of the smaller subset of folks that we can't definitively pre-identify, then still, you only have to do it if you're accessing age-restricted servers or channels, or changing certain settings. That's really not most users. (Altho... might be more Redditors, tbh.) Last, I know that there is concern about privacy and data leaks. That's a real concern. The selfie system is built purely client-side, it never leaves your device, and we did that intentionally. That'll work for a bunch of users who aren't pre-identified as adults. But if you do end up in the ID bucket, then yeah, you're right that has some risk. We're doing what we can to minimize this by working with our range of partners (who are different partners than the data leak you read about), and if it's any help, we learned a lot internally from the last issue. But I get if that doesn't necessarily inspire more confidence. Anyway, we’ll be sharing more next month as we get closer to the global roll out about the system, including the technology behind it in March. I honestly wouldn't be happy if we didn't build something good and I am excited about what we’re launching, but please let us know what you think when we share more details. And I really appreciate everybody's feedback here today. We’re definitely reading it!

[Bleeding Tooth] - 'A great dragon that fell from the heavens, its once pure scales now stained in blood from the atrocities it has committed.'

One of my favorites of the Decay batch ghhggh- up for grabs!

#funguary #adoptable #dragon #creaturedesign
A dragon with a long, winding, coiling body. It is primarily white in color, with segments of six angelic wings sprouting from its neck, ribcage, lower body, and hips. Between the segments are slit pockets that glow a vibrant red. Its head and underside are stained in red, resembling blood. The head is skeletal in appearance with a hollow crest and four eyes with orange + shaped pupils.

✦ Trading Breath for Blood ✦

[Art from 2024 - My dnd oc, Lich Zeno of Netheril]
Repost of a Waist up digital painting of my dnd character Zeno of Netheril, who is a young-looking human man with short dark-blond bangs and a long mullet, pale veiny skin and two dots tattooed below eyes that glow with light blue magic. His sternum is cracked open and his chest cavity is empty. The moment depicted in this piece is his first "breath" as a Lich: he undergone the gruesome trasformation that left him 4 days in a coma and for that time his body was laid on a stone altar, covered by a tapestry from his Enclave, guarded by two Will-o'-wisps. Now he finally woke up,undead, undying... and no longer needing to breathe at all.

This was a piece I started in summer but haven't found the energy to complete, so I will let it exist as is.
an incomplete digital illustration of an anthropomorphic red wasp with four arms in a ballet pose bent over with its forearms touching its legs and its secondary arms splayed back with its wings. It poses in a red poppy, amongst the grass, with glowing yellow wings spread overhead.

Horse sketch I made during a lecture, sorry for the fewer posts, been busy :3
The page contains three main drawings on a brown background, one is a colored full body of a bucking horse with the words "witness" behind it, the horse is a dark brown/grey color with cream colored vitiligo spots. The second drawing is an uncolored headshot of the same horse. The third drawing is the same horse and their rider, the rider says "PLEASE behave" whith text next to the horse saying "They will not--They have to keep their rider young somehow."
