lrt THIS IS WHAT I KEEP SAYING TO PEOPLE, YOU DONT HAVE TO MAKE THE BEST THING THAT'S EVER EXISTED, YOU JUST HAVE TO MAKE. you will make it better than a computer. you will probably make it better than a large part of other humans, too, but even if you don't, you Have to Make It! quoth the Man Ever:
Quote by kurt vonnegut: "Go into the arts. I'm not kidding. The arts are not a way to make a living. They are a very human way of making life more bearable. Practicing an art, no matter how well or badly, is a way to make your soul grow, for heavens sake. Sing in the shower. Dance to the radio. Tell stories. Write a poem to a friend, even a lousy poem. Do it as well as you possibly can. You will get an enormous reward. You will have created something."

I'm sorry: "if I wish to see a virgin on-screen"?
My Favorite Actress Is Not Human
Tilly Norwood doesn’t need a hairstylist, has no regrettable posts, and if you wish to see a virgin on-screen, this is one of your better chances. That’s because she’s AI.

A picture of some AI girl standing on an AI landscape with an AI monster behind her. I'm gonna be so real: she looks about 14

For a band named after a piece of medieval torture equipment, that didn't actually exist in medieval times, lron Maiden's music catalog is surprisingly absent of kink content.

There is "Hooks In You", though...

Lyrics
Song lyrics (1 of2), Iron Maiden "Hooks In You" (1990) 

The song is believed by many to be the third about a fictional sex worker character from the Iron Maiden song "Charlotte The Harlot."

"Behind my green door" in the lyrics might be a reference to the classic kinky porn film, Behind the Green Door (1972)

Song genesis-

"'Hooks In You' is a slightly tongue-in-cheek thing. Me and Paddy went to look at a house to buy and it was lived in by three gay guys. We looked around and it had all these beams, and one of the guys was obviously into S&M and leather and stuff, and in one room there were these enormous industrial hooks screwed into the beams. My mind boggled at what they could be used for. I went home and wrote 'Hooks In You' with the line 'All the hooks in the ceiling, that well hung feeling'. I couldn't write it about gay guys, but what if you went round to the house of Mr. and Mrs. Average you found all these hooks in the ceiling? What do THEY get up to? (Did Bruce buy the house?) No we didn't! At the end of the song the guy thinks his wife has been unfaithful and sets her in concrete in the foundations." -Bruce Dickinson, lead singer.

EVIL ERNIE STRAIGHT TO HELL #3, Chastity VIRGIN Variant cover  (1995),  Chastity's first solo cover. Art by the late Steven Hughes

Chastity , Chaos Comics' punk/dominatrix-esque vampire assassin made her debut in EVIL ERNIE: STRAIGHT TO HELL #1, released October 1st, 1995

"Chastity was created in 1995 by Brian Pulido, the head of Chaos Comics and principal writer for the company he founded to develop and explore his characters. Visually, Chastity was given her classic look (a sexy punk-goth girl with dominatrix undertones) by the talented and sorely missed Steven Hughes, Pulido's long time collaborator, who designed and drew many of Chaos' now iconic characters."

'With her punk red hair and revealing dominatrix-like outfits, Chastity is considered a prominent example of the 1990's Bad Girl Art movement, and she became a popular choice to render in pinup art even for artists outside of Chaos. Even though Chastity has changed publishers twice since the demise of Chaos Comics in 2002, she has remained a favorite subject among Bad Girl pinup artists." -Comicvine 

Chasity would continue to be featured both in multiple series of her own and other comics in the decades to follow,

And so, it seems that even BlueSky wants to join the bigoted censorship that reigns supreme on social media. Shame!

I'd like to say it surprises me, but... U_u

PS We're not participating in #blueskyblackout2025 ...think the worst thing we can do is censor ourselves.
