Three panel comic. Panel 1: a guy in a pawn shop talking to the employee at the counter. He has about half a loaf of bread in a bag in front of him. The seller asks, “how much will you give me for this stale bread?” Panel 2: the unsure employee replies, “tell ya what— I got a buddy who’s an expert on this stuff.” Panel 3: a goose in a hat and sunglasses walks confidently through the shop entrance towards the counter.

This post is going viral, but this isn't walking back. It's reiterating the initial press release. There's no new information in this post, aside from them saying they're using a different ID partner (which doesn't solve that problem) and the Reddit joke. Everything else is the same. Keep pushing.

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!

It seems like they've shut down both email and phone lines right now, so the only way left is likely filing a ticket.

Which, you absolutely should. It'll ruin their SLA's and KPI's, and companies HATE when you ruin their data.

I got an email saying that they cannot review email submissions, and only receive customer support questions through this form: dis.gd/contact

I would try submitting a complaint through there.

Hey @discord.com, I've been supporting you for a long time now, but I guess I won't any longer.

I recommend everyone else do the same.

How long does it take for a barista to earn enough money to buy a cappuccino in their own coffee shop? What does that tell us about different economies and coffee cultures around the world?

little #rcbg fanart that started as a warmup sketch. Eat your fucking heart out Nichole
A piece of fanart of Kathy and Rashmi from ranked competitive breast growth. On the left is two comic panels showing Kathy straddling Rashmi's hips after having just measured her breasts, flustered and thinking about kissing her. On the right are full body sketches of each of them with Kathy in her pink cat ear hoodie and thigh highs.

Chiitan loves good transgender people🏳️‍⚧️
In today's world, even making these kinds of statements will get you slandered, but I think it's more important to create a world where transgender people can live peacefully and be themselves, so I will continue to send out messages until my account is deleted

Abolish ICE.

There’s no reforming it.

There’s no compromise.

There’s only one way to rein in ICE’s terror campaign. Abolish it.

Beast need haircut
two autobiographic comic panels of myself reacting to the amount of hair shedding in my hair brush. The first is me from 5 years ago, scared of my hair thinning and the second is me now, looking at an even greater amount of shedding with little reaction, thinking "beast need haircut"

get it right
3 panel comic Panel 1: A Pink Guy has spray painted the words “All billionaires are scum” on a blue wall. Pleased with his work, he looks at the reader and gives a thumbs up. Panel 2: An Orange Guy comes into shot and snatches the can of spray paint out of the Pink Guy’s hand. He looks angry and yells “Hey!” Panel 3: The Orange Guy has changed the message so it now reads “All billionaires are scumbag pedophiles. Both the Pink Guy and the Orange Guy give the reader a thumbs up.

I will go further and say that people using the "r"-word are hoping that bringing it back opens the door to bringing back the "n"-word, and is strongly correlated with the people who want to carve off trans rights as a stepping stone to claw back gay rights in general
noblehunter.bsky.social Noblehunter @noblehunter.bsky.social · 16d
I assume anyone who says this word is probably okay with the n-word, too. Or, more charitably, doesn’t understand why they shouldn’t say it just that saying it would get them in a lot of trouble.

...and yet a trans woman was dropped by DC immediately, who then completely undid the release of her comic, AND revoked her payment, for making a joke about a racist getting assassinated. :/

I hope stuff like this, while cool, doesn't distract anyone from what happened to Gretchen Felker-Martin.
