The stuff Jeffrey Epstein’s friends felt comfortable saying and drawing in grotesque detail with their names attached knowing they would not face consequences is the kind of thing I think of when I think about rape culture and how sexual violence against girls and young women is actually glorified

It was dangerous, untamed, but it was also OURS. Our data was OURS, whatever we wanted to see was OURS. Then social media, algorithms, grew and took over blogs and forums. Now it's worse, now censorship is leaking into every corner of our lives. We have to do something. NOW. 2/2

The ongoing censorship of the internet SHOULD scare you, it SHOULD bother you. Growing up, I was taught that the internet was the final haven of exploration and freedom (aside from space, which they'll no doubt try to control as well, they're already only sending the rich up there as we speak) 1/2

vintage porn is basically the hieroglyphics of modern gay culture. lots of history that would probably be lost if it hadn't been attached to smut (movies, magazines, photos you name it). part of why it irks me so much when ppl get prudish about pride, sex scenes, etc. it's like baby that's culture!

I saw a touching scene from a 1973 movie where a young man comes out to his blue collar widower father. The father told his son he loves him and to be proud of who he is. I thought it was really moving so I looked up the movie and it was from a PORNO

Seriously, we've never been so close to losing all adult content on the web. If you haven't made a single call or sent a single letter, now is the time to change that. TAKE ACTION OR LOSE THE ART YOU LOVE.

We should stop using “puritan” & start calling them fascists.

Endorsing conditional censorship isn’t being sensible, it is endorsing fascism. You can’t microdose fascism

I am tired of coddling ppl who get mad when they’re told they’re endorsing nazi beliefs while they absolutely are.

damn crazy how sex workers and porn were the canary in the coal mine and we all predicted this years ago. almost as if what’s happening with paypros right now is an indicator of where everyone is heading as well

i think people need a refresher on what constitutes a Distraction. the cracker barrel logo thing (zero stakes, obviously invented controversy) is a Distraction. the ongoing military occupation of washington dc (ample footage of random delivery drivers being violently detained by feds) is not

Capitalism is dehumanizing. If you go to work, you have to deal with the pain; if you don't go to work, you'll miss out on money that you need, and you may lose your job.

Humans are not meant to be working machines. 25/8

hey did you know pain levels from menstrual cramps for some women are more severe than a heart attack?

that intrauterine pressure gauges have registered levels higher than those recorded during labor?

but you don’t get to stay home from school or work! and you sure as fuck better act normal

I wish people showed the same sort of moral outrage at the fact that child marriage is legal in 38 states than they do at fictional depictions of rape.
