Gentle reminder that in the late '50s, the U.S. government did not censor comics. Comics companies censored themselves.

Not sure why that crossed my mind today but there it is...

Five days ago, an ICE agent shoved a woman asking questions about the detention of her husband.

Today they attacked two journalists.

We cannot accept or normalize what has now become routine violence at 26 Federal Plaza. It has no place in our city.

Hey there, yeah, you.

Bluesky is a wonderful place that has flourished in large part because of its artists and intolerance towards facists/Nazis. The Updated policy currently going into effect Oct 15 could fuck that up and we should be very vocal about it. Here are some specific things to mention in feedback (THREAD)

Restricting the expression of sexuality through fiction and art made by adults, for adults – including those you find personally disturbing or offputting – is conservative censorship, full stop. When that censorship disproportionately affects subgroups, that's also discrimination. For shame.

Whatever, I'm gonna post the rest of it while I can 👌

DO NOT participate in #blueskyblackout2025

I'm nsfw artist and other nsfw artists are asking you to SHOUT! Bsky wants to censor us so the worst thing we can do is censor ourselves!

Publicly shame them, use the feedback button, and post about it using the tag #bskycensorship

Silence is compliance!

So am I allowed to reference the critically acclaimed film classic Alien(1979) on Bluesky or have the goon police decided a franchise built on a metaphor for violent rape and forced impregnation by a creature with a dick for a head is suddenly too much for their modern sensibilities? #bskycensorship

AhhHhh, there you are! Thank you again for the awesome story 💕

banning adult content that is completely legal hurts artists. your new rule creates an absolutely massive grey area where literally anything could be interpreted as nonconsensual, from incidental nudity to bondage. given your track record, I can expect this to be used to target people you don't like

Anyway, here’s your form of consent, Bluesky.

Disney/ABC have a responsibility to refuse to participate in corruption.

Kimmel must be reinstated. If Disney/ABC agree to this extortion then perhaps creatives + workers should consider collective action to push back. Same w/buying park + cruise tickets if they bow.

People have power. Ask Target

As someone who rarely/does not post nsfw - this new bluesky TOS feels like a dubious slippery slope since LGBTQIA+ media has been caught up in itchio’s nsfw cull.

The nsfw label system is great.
Sure, if u want, it can be made better. ask for suggestions to improve it instead of this vague rule.

The whole bsky TOS update is garbage but they're also deciding to go full steam ahead with censoring creative expression

You might see several artists mad about the bluesky policy update banning non-con, even artists who do not make that kind of material, and wonder why it's such a problem. If that's you, here is a quick breakdown:

🧵

Lord alive, they want fictional characters in fictional sexual situations to model consent for literal adults like a patronizing early 2020’s sitcom where the point of the writing is to convey that the writer’s been to therapy at some point

I actually want people to try and have something legal signed by an OC. I mean if fictional characters are real enough that they have to consent for sexual situations, then my rich OC is real enough to guarantee for me to take a high loan for a house.
@bsky.app do you see how RIDICULOUS it is?
