Haus of Decline @hausofdecline.bsky.social · 6d

The CEO of Bluesky is craven and evil. The only people that build these platforms are infected with the self-reproducing moral rot of capitalism. They have no sense of duty or stewardship. They see their monetary reward as a cleansing justification for their actions.

Under bluesky’s new #censorship rules, a historical piece like ‘The Rape of Proserpina’ by Bernini would in theory be banned for its depiction of assault. The lack of media literacy and art comprehension on their side is not only disheartening, but disgusting. #bskycensorship

The sculpture The Rape of Proserpina or Ratto di Proserpina by Gian Lorenzo Bernini. It depicts the abduction and assault of Proserpina, daughter of Jupiter and Ceres, by the underworld god Pluto. She tries to fight him off, but this scene takes place just moments before he drags her to the underworld and forces her to be his wife.

I finally got them scanned x_x Here's Volteer! #artistsonbluesky #thelegendofspyro #volteer

A watercolour painting of Volteer from the Legend of Spyro series. He's a yellow dragon with denim blue accents, and faint tan lightning markings along his body. He's depicted mid-flight, in a purple hued lightning storm. There's no ground visible.

I hope I live long enough to see the pendulum swing back to kindness and hope because I just can't fathom how this level of hatred and selfishness is sustainable.

Fat lot of good that promise is... Y'know, since you plan on telling creative what they can and can't post. How long will this promise last before you start policing these metaphorical Legos too? #bskycensorship

While on break, I wanted to put something positive up amid everything.

For anyone out there who needs to see this.

Someone sees you. They care. They are willing to listen and support you. You are important and you matter.

The train does not stop here.
