The UK, Canada & Australia are reportedly in talks about potentially banning Twitter/X over Grok’s AI image generation, per The Telegraph.

Ministers believe a joint move would send a “powerful message” to Elon Musk.

Once again reminding people to tag their nsfw/suggestive art properly, the option does NOT reduce your reach in any meaningful way (only that people that don't want that on their feeds won't see it, but those people wouldn't engage anyway)

For people that feel helpless, this period is so tough but there's ways to help for anyone. Go out there support Venezuelan ppl and artists living in it as they prepare for unpredictable times

Here is a starter pack of artists with commissions or donations open as well:

There is no overstating how bad repealing Section 230 would be for the Internet. If you are a US citizen and have ever enjoyed one of our games, or any other piece of queer or "controversial" media, then please consider contacting your representatives and encouraging them to not support this.
NEW: They kept saying they were gonna do it and now they've done it

A group of clowns (Senators) have introduced a bill to FULLY REPEAL Section 230.

No reform, no replacement, just utter destruction of all online free speech.

We can't let this happen. Share & take action

while KOSA passed the subcommittee, there is still the full committee meeting it needs to go through before being voted on by the Senate/House

support is more split on it than you'd think, we just need to pull away enough votes to block it. CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVES!

A raccoon entered a liquor store in Virginia and drank his fill: rum, moonshine, even peanut butter whiskey. Then it passed out on the floor of the bathroom.

We can still win this, kosa is EXTREMELY unpopular, and it's lost several times before. But we can't take the chance that it'll fail again, we really do just have to keep telling them fuck no.

This is DEFCON 1 priority, y'all. Call your senators, reps, call your friends and tell them to call their senators and reps about this. Call your grandma and tell her to call her senators and reps about this.

What we have here will be *gone* if these bills pass.
Congress is attempting to fast track KOSA and more than a dozen bills that would restrict internet access, censor speech and increase surveillance under the guise of protecting children.

Committee hearings begin tomorrow.
Lawmakers to consider 19 bills for childproofing the internet
KOSA is back, along with more than a dozen other bills that will erode free speech and privacy in the name of protecting kids.

LEGALLY YOU SHOULD BE SENDING INVOICES FOR GOODS AND SERVICES. IF YOU TAKE COMMISSIONS ON PAYPAL DO NOT USE FRIENDS AND FAMILY. YOU ARE NOT SAFE, YOUR CLIENT IS NOT SAFE.

THIS IS A FORM OF TAX EVASION.

YOU SHOULD BE USING INVOICES.
Paypal is now playing harder ball on artists, going after anyone even mentioning commissions.

Artists, send invoices. That way, no one has to say what the money is for on Paypal's paper trail.

Customers, SAY NOTHING about commissions. Just say "thanks" on donos.

Everyone: INCREASE THE CALLS.
Sharing a helpful link, has other numbers and call scripts to use.

Okay this specific comment is very vaguely related- but they ban people for mention of NSFW too, but you should NEVER be in a position where your client gets to nuke your account. Invoices are the LEGAL way to accept commissions and you can withhold mentions of NSFW using invoices.

UK Gouvernment: Payment Processors Can Ban NSFW Content
According to the UK treasury, payment processors are in the right and the gouvernment has no plans to step in. This puts it in direct contrast to what artists and the UK games industry have asked for.

Just a heads upfor nsfw artists using paypal Its probably a good idea to only take payment through Invoices anyway, basic details are fine BUT /NOTHING/ involving nsfw , furry , or fetish topics should ever go anywhere. "Single character commission" is a-okay. they dont needa know shit else ever.
This is a warning to every artists and clients using PayPal: Leave the note blank or send invoices. Apparently even saying "commission" makes them trigger happy. #SaveSpeech #StopPaypros

And continue the pressure by calling PayPal. Helpful link here: anti-censorship-campaign.carrd.co#phonescript
