Art friends: Here's a tip for getting rid of *a lot* of the AI slop in your Pinterest feed.

⭐Go into your account settings.
⭐Click the "Refine your recommendations" tab.
⭐Click the GenAI Interests subtab.
⭐TURN OFF EVERYTHING.

So far, my feed is *significantly* cleaner.

Comment period ends Oct 20 and the comments so far OVERWHELMINGLY favor adding checkpoints for voter registration. please if you have a moment go in and comment that adding barriers to registration only contributes to voter suppression, and that noncitizens already can’t vote.

This is "debanking", and its a problem that has plagued sex workers for decades. It isnt right when its targetting sex workers and its not right when its targetting game devs and creators either.

Give paypros and your givt reps your grievances and demand that debanking of adult content stop

Per Reddit: Steam adult developer in the UK is sitting on a USD equivalent of six figures, can’t find a bank to take his money because the developer creates adult games

I develop adult video games on Steam. I can't find a bank that will actually let me withdraw my money from Steam. Can I get some advice?
Game has sold quite well on Steam. I've got almost £90,000 ready to withdraw after Steam's cut + VAT taken off.

However, it's been 2 months now and I can't find ANY bank in the UK who will let me withdraw my money from Steam.

I've been banned/refused/unable to get a business account with:

Wise
Revolut
Monzo
Monese
Chase
Starling
Nationwide
Halifax
Barclays
Lloyds
RBS

It always comes down to, "Where did you get this money from?"

"It's coming from games I sell on Steam."

"Can we see the store page?"

"Sure."

"I'm sorry, we can't do business with you at this time."

It keeps coming down to a commercial decision purely because I make adult content.

What the hell am I supposed to do? I've pretty much exhausted the whole banking system. I just want to be able to be paid for products I've sold.

Porn addiction isn’t real
It’s just not
All of the ”science” about it comes from groups with religious ties, anti-sex worker ties, or grifting “therapists”

A compulsive relationship with porn is about the individual, not the porn

This means if you're in the UK and haven't signed this yet, please do. At 100k signatures they have to discuss it again.

Literally the least you can do!!

UK Gouvernment: Payment Processors Can Ban NSFW Content
According to the UK treasury, payment processors are in the right and the gouvernment has no plans to step in. This puts it in direct contrast to what artists and the UK games industry have asked for.

Day 7 - Blasphemy/Blindfolds
#kinktober

A digital art page featuring a blindfolded nun bent over an altar and clutching her rosary while a big knight is between her legs and laying his hefty cock on her ass, gripping her thigh with his gauntlet. At the bottom of the page she's sucking dick and being covered in cum.

Last year I got interested in regency era fashion at the same time as I was playing Tears of the Kingdom and this is what came out of it.

a thong brings two strangers together 🍑🤏 part 1

a pink and blue toned comic page. two people are separately doing laundry at a laundromat. one of them pulls a thong out of the machine and remarks on how it isn't theirs. they look around for a lost and found.

they see a stranger looking at them and blushing. when they assure him the thong isn't theirs, he says "it's cool if it is". they ask if he thinks the thong will fit.

the man gets up and asks "wanna find out?" the scene transitions to a deeper pink and blue. they are both shirtless, the man is wearing jeans and the other is wearing a thong. the man says "it fits"

you need to stop giving into to doomer impulses.

these are fights we can win. We've won some of them BEFORE, with LESS public outcry (tho do not let that engender passivity!)

quite a few of these dogshit bills have failed before! we can change the future!

"My reps are all conservative and do what they want anyway so I can't call about KOSA"

This bill has died multiple times before and it's because people told their reps they don't like it, especially the red ones

Are you kidding me right now? This is the last thing we need. KOSA is back no thanks to Senator Blumenthal who is working with the GOP and bringing in Republican Senators to convince the House to support it.

Please, CALL GOP House leadership and tell them to keep opposing it!
