A digital simulation of a work and weathered two color relief print on toned paper. A black goat with big horns curving back in a somewhat exaggerated running or prancing pose is turning his head to look back over his shoulder. There is a pole topped with a small inverted cross crooked in one of his front legs and attached to the pole, streaming over the goat, is a red banner bearing some crusty looking blackletter script reading ‘Maybe it will happen today’

[repost] Commentary on the Final days
(heavy inspired by + references the Beatus Manuscripts)
#bluciworks
A digitally drawn FFXIV fanwork referencing a manuscript page from the Beatus Manuscripts. It is made up of a few different flat scenes with little to no perspective. In the top right, Lahabrea sits in a throne and points towards Elidibus, both of whom have halos behind their head. At the top and middle, the final boss from Amaurot, a four legged creature with three faces-- leaps towards the left side of the image while several angels clad in sophist robes jab it with spears. A black haired person stands to meet the beast with arm raised, a circle with a sun and the symbol of azem covering their midsection. In the bottom right, angels donning sophist robes drop indistinct robed bodies down towards where Zodiark awaits the sacrifices. In the bottom left, Erichthionios hovers above Pandaemonium with arm outstretched to block incoming enemies from attacking it.

And as always: the easiest way to keep kids and teens safe on the internet is for parents to have open communication with their children about what they’re doing online, at all times, or to just disallow social media until the child is 18. That’s it. Everything else is wound dressing.

The current day internet is already much more locked down and “kid safe” than it ever was before, and kids are no more “safe” than they ever were. Legislators do not understand this, and will make much more oppressive demands of these companies unless we continue to argue for our privacy rights.

I do not love this choice Discord is making, but they’re not making it in a vacuum to upset people. This is them trying to get out ahead of the new wave of FOSTA/SESTA flavored garbage, so that they can do it on their terms, rather than ones dictated to them by government entities.

—I do think it’s better for companies to set THEIR standard for how this works, rather than waiting for the hysterical and tech ignorant governing bodies to decide those standards for them. It isn’t great, for sure. But there’s a level of retaining control over the issue by getting in front, i guess

One thing I do know is that various governments are attempting to pass legislation that will require all social media companies to do something similar, only the legislative versions are ten times more draconian and invasive. I don’t love what Discord is doing, but at the same time—

This is not Discord “walking things back.” This is them further explaining the situation in more detail, and elaborating on how the new system will work. I understand the impulse to attribute this to outrage and Nitro cancellations, but this is just a better explanation, not a change.

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!

Sometimes a familiar is a weirdo you pull out of the dirt. While not as popular as cats or toads, root zoophytes are a favorite among cooking witches (not as an ingredient, but as a charm.)

Sorry to vent on main but I'm just so sick of being a grown-ass adult online who can't openly enjoy talking about or drawing sex stuff even in completely adult spaces where all minors are completely banned just because everyone has gotta be such fascist controlling fucking babies about it

Hey can we bring back all those internet safety campaigns we had when I was a millennial teen? It is NOT my job to parent someone else's kids and have to submit my ID to places to sanitize the internet for some puritanical outrage about kids. Parents should be doing this themselves.
