if you want to help yell at Bluesky over the TOS, this thread has a lot of helpful info on options you can take!

Void🔞 | VGen @voiddebris.bsky.social · 26d

Do NOT believe the misinfo going around

There absolutely have been MASSIVE TOS updates

Most notably:

1) Specifying no FICTIONAL noncon
2) No "dangerous" kink
3) No DISCUSSING self harm, suicide, or substance abuse unless its "educational"

So what can we DO about it?

#SaveSpeech

1/🧵

Multiple cropped screenshots showing portions of the bsky TOS before and now. Before: "iv. Encouraging self-harm or suicide
v. Depictions of excessive violence, gore, torture, dismemberment, or non-consensual sexual activity". Now: "ii. We do not allow sexual content involving non-consensual activity including synthetic, simulated, illustrated, or animated versions. iv. Do not create, share, or promote sexual content involving realistic risk of death or serious injury. i. Do not share content, methods, instructions, or promotion of self-harm, suicide, eating disorders, and extreme dieting practices.
ii. Do not share methods, instructions, depictions, or promotion of dangerous stunts or abuse of dangerous or controlled substances. 5. Protected Expression
B. Support, Recovery, and Mental Health:
i. Personal recovery experiences or survivor stories shared to promote healing and community support rather than encouraging harmful behavior.
ii. Sharing verified mental health resources, crisis prevention".

Hey there, folks - @redwolfe.is and I are officially engaged! They even went out of their way to make completely custom rings out of silver. Design inspiration is in the alt text.

Yes, I know my ring is on the wrong finger. I messed up the measurements. This WILL be rectified soon.

Me and @redwolfe.is' hands, showing silver engagement rings.

Mine has a blue gemstone, and is inspired by the Cortana chip from Halo 3. Red's has a purple gemstone, and is made to resemble a pair of Energy Swords back to back.

Bluesky is suspending people for posting the Palestinian flag now.

Aaron needs to resign now. Also, they need to ban Singal and Vance.

HM. BUT THATS NOT DELETED @support.bsky.team, @moderation.bsky.app. And Ive explained *why* that was posted and why its harmless… so what can I appeal if you dont tell me?

Well what have I posted recently?

What could be a common denominator… oooooh nooooo it couldnt be that we both QT Palestinia—

A screenshot of Dr. Rehaminators post and mine on my feed where we both retweeted Palestinian accounts. Both “offending” accounts are deleted and the only reason I know these were Palestinian accounts is because I QT the flag over every account I repost gor those who wish to filter.

NEWS: Last night, the Department of Homeland Security detained a Palestinian who helped lead the Columbia encampment.

Agents told him his visa was revoked. He said he had a green card. They were confused—then said that was revoked too.

His attorney demanded a warrant. Agents hung up instead.

There is a real, genuine 1st Amendment crisis in the United States right now.

The government is openly retaliating against anyone with a viewpoint it doesn't like: Pro-Palestinian protesters, law schools teaching Black History, pro-immigration public service loan forgiveness seekers.

So now they are arresting people accused of no crimes who are lawful residents of the United States.

Wow.

This development is a horrifying and further escalation of the very topic I wrote about yesterday evening: The Trump administration’s move from governmental changes to individual attacks focused on political opponents. www.lawdork.com/p/trump-test...

We will be revoking the visas and / or green cards of Hamas supporters in America so they can be deported
