With emphasis, there is no difference in the conservative mind between porn and "icky porn". Queer existence itself is porn to them. Band together and say no to censorship, wholesale. You will not get a pass for being one of the "good" queers. IN THE CONSERVATIVE MIND, THERE IS NO SUCH THING.

We really need an equivalent of common carrier laws for all infrastructure. Payment processors should be obligated to process all legal transactions. They shouldn't have any more say in it than my electric company can decide what I'm allowed to plug in.
PayPal user in the UK lost their account after buying adult ebooks “about monsters and milking,” “some dubcon stuff”
“My account got banned a couple of days ago for making purchases which violate the ToS. Upon querying w/ staff over the phone I've been told that it was ebooks that I've been buying”

If you don’t believe that Trump’s authoritarianism can be defeated, look at how scared MAGA is of chalk:
FHP also arrested a man at a crosswalk near Pulse in Orlando last night. The bizarre story of the arrest is related below by Fox35 Orlando.
This is so pitifully embarrassing for the state.

I will remind folks those images of Nazi book burnings aren't burning just any books. They're burning the library of Magnus Hirschfeld; a gay, Jewish doctor who created an institute dedicated to LGBTQ sex education and healthcare. And a man who pioneered gender affirming care surgeries.

as ever, if you ask people if they think art should exist for their enjoyment they will say yes, and then if you ask them if the people making the art should get paid for it they'll tell you "no that's a fake job"
if you think every voice actor is a millionaire, you are not immune to propaganda and would not survive the winter, sorry.

BREATHING WATER — It's spring break, and Kristen would rather be at home. But she’s been dragged south to Florida for a real vacation. She doesn’t expect to discover a mermaid drowning in the hotel pool — or to fall in love with her.

"Conveniently located in the heart of Orlando, with easy access to Disney World and the best Florida has to offer, the Twin Palms Hotel is an affordable, family-friendly getaway. Just... ignore the college students. If you can." #LateNightWrite
Next question! Describe a location in your WIP(s) as if you were a realtor trying to sell the place. What would attract a buyer? what are the downsides? is it a fixer-upper or a perfect home?

It's (probably) medically recommended to turn off the TV today, and simply read queer romance instead.
