Scott McCloud "Explaining Comics" panels where one is himself in a cartoony style and the second is in a realistic style, In the first panel he says, "That's why I decided to draw myself in such a simple style." In the second he says, "Would you have listened to me if I looked like this??" The first panel has been edited to be labeled "DLSS 5 Off", the second edited with "DLSS 5 On"

"[kink] triggers me/makes me uncomfortable/angry/disturbed" 🆗👍

"people who enjoy [kink] are" 🛑✋ STOP! ⚠️🚨 We Have Entered 😳 The Reactionary Zone 😱💦 Let's Examine 🔍 👀 Our Emotional Responses 💕🌼 Together ☺️🤝

Hard to not go fucking insane in a world where they behave like fiction can hurt you while literally bombing schools. Hope all of these fascist fucks take a very long walk off of a very short pier.

A scene from the Titanic where the boat sinks and the orchestra keeps playing. Over the sinking ship, it says "fascism" and over the band it says "smut artists"

FYI to you purist cunts: It won't stop with smut.

Game of Thrones has more homicide, pedophilia, incest, rape and all manner of other horrific shit in it than pretty much any other property to ever hit mainstream appeal and you didn’t see a massive upswing in those things during the height of the show’s popularity, did you?

Art doesn’t cause harm.
People cause harm by doing harm to other people. A drawing literally cannot hurt you any more than a violent video game can shoot up a school. This idea that fiction directly translates in to people copying what the see IRL is actual far-right evangelical control rhetoric.

If somebody shows you art in order to try to actively normalize and coax you in to trying to do immoral shit IRL, that is called grooming and the person grooming you is the problem, not the art. If somebody hits you with a wrench you go after the person who hit you you don’t try to ban wrenches.

when you post like a pervert you lose those who are lost but gain those who are enlightened by the forces of toxic yaoi

Anyways tapping the sign again. You are not immune to propaganda. You are susceptible to manipulation and that is exactly what our shitty fascist government is banking on.

I'm not saying you have to enjoy or be comfortable with trauma centric art!

But you have to learn to sit WITH that discomfort.

Your feelings and traumas are being used against you and other victims under the false pretext of saving/protecting children.

If our government cared so much, it would not be full of the most rancid men alive, telling you who REALLY needs to be the focus of your righteous and protective fury.

I'm deadass serious when I say this;

I do and will always stand alongside and among the "gross perverts" who draw even the kind of kink media I personally find completely vile, because I know my feelings or traumas are not what decides the morality or humanity of an individual outside of their work

If there’s good news here it’s that the legislation is not as popular as they hoped. They’ve had to rebrand multiple times in the past few years which is not something you do if it’s wildly successful.

Sex workers are doing a good job of making this toxic.

Email from NCOSE: Full Decriminalization of Sex Trade Derailed in Colorado: The Latest in an Unbroken Winning Streak Thanks to support from trusted NCOSE allies and tireless advocates like you, a dangerous bill that sought to fully decriminalize the sex trade in Colorado has been defeated! Senate Bill 97 would have decriminalized sex buyers, brothel keepers, and even some pimps. But the bill was abandoned because it did not have enough votes to advance. This is the latest in NCOSE's unbroken winning streak fighting full decriminalization bills. We have fought these bills in 12 states, and have successfully defeated them every time. This incredible impact is only possible thanks to your support! • Learn more about the fight against full decriminalization in the U.S. and beyond. • ACTION: Ask Your Legislators to Pass the Survivor Model! The Survivor Model is a far better alternative to full decriminalization. It threads the needle correctly by decriminalizing exploited individuals (i.e. prostituted persons) while criminalizing the people who exploit them (i.e. sex buyers, pimps, and brothel keepers).

ACtion Alert from NCOSE: Stand with Survivors: Call on Your Legislators to Pass Survivor Model in 2026! It is critical that legislators consider the Survivor Model in 2026 to ensure that sex buyers are held accountable for perpetuating the harms of the sex trade. The global sex trade is a 150 billion dollar on and offline industry, where every dollar of profit is fueled by human pain and psychological trauma. This isn't just a tragedy; it's a form of modern-day slavery.

SWERFs are attempting to rebrand anti-sex work legislation again. They're now using "Survivor Model" to disguise toxic Nordic Model / Equality Model bills.

But it's the same bad solution. They're explicit that it's meant to stop full decriminalization.

There's an app for every OS from what I can tell, you can functionally have the same thing like servers and channels. Why are we so obsessed with sucking Discord's dick?

Why doesn't anyone wanna move to Element/Matrix over Discord when it's actually encrypted and private? Especially for non discord and paypro approved content? What am I fucking missing here lmao 😭

what if i said that the "matriarchy" myth is a colonial construction used to justify eurocolonial patriarchy ("agrarian matriarchies evolve into industrial patriarchies") and the egalitarian indigenous political formations that existed simply had a weak-to-irrelevant gendered division of labour

They steal your work, they dumb you down, they make your electricity more expensive, they take your water and your livelihood.

But at least you’ll get opportunity of a lifetime: information that according to one BBC study is likely to be wrong 51% of the time!

Incredible“progress” 💀

No joke, I think this might be one of the most important roles for tech-savvy Millennials/Gen Xers.

We caught a glimpse of an amazing world, one that was almost entirely free of corporate or political influence because the suits hadn’t caught on yet. We could talk with ANYONE in an age of landlines

NSFW Artists being attacked on all fronts while the government actively protects pedos is fucking nuts and shouldn't be ignored.

I really wish this kind of analysis came from journalists and properly credited academics and not "ok_longbottom43", 2 week old reddit account who dumped his data on a brqnd new github profile 12 hours ago.

if you value a free and democratic society then you have to trust the vast majority of people have sound moral understanding, and respond penally only when they prove otherwise.

and if you can't do that then I beg that you go to therapy instead of becoming a fascist or a useful idiot to one.

in the same way they look at anything erotic and think that THEY can separate fantasy from real world impact but others can't. It's why you run into so many hypocrites who are into something like incest noncon smut but it's okay bc THEY know it's bad, unlike everyone else who actually wants it irl

moral policers have it in their heads they uniquely are able to infer moral understanding out of fiction but everyone else can't, like most don't come out of watching Saw traumatized or Grave of the Fireflies heartbroken, it must be because they like it the sick perverts.

these are not okay people

looking to a text for moral affirmation is the function of propaganda or religion, and that's what moral policers are trying to morph fiction into

art is not a holy bible nor is it a judicially approved social etiquette manual, it's inherently transgressive because YOU do the critical engagement

I feel like so many people who have never experienced the things they want to censor are the most vocal PRECISELY BECAUSE they have never experienced it, they are so fucking scared of it they dont even want to be reminded that it exists or that some people might enjoy it for Literally Any Reason

And yeah like. Shit's scary! It's reasonable to not want to interact with [insert squicky trope here]. But like. Some people are survivors who find community in portraying their struggle. And some of us like horror!!! Which sometimes will portray horrible things!!! Kind of the point!!!!!

lot of people on this site soaking themselves stupid making posts like "stop saying gross shit is ok" when people are very clearly saying "you are allowed to think something is absolutely vile but trusting the government/companies/paypros w the morality barometer is HISTORICALLY really dumb"

This is highly important for Americans. The Fed is highly independent and has teeth. This isn't just about art, either, but speech in general. Please comment if you can, and leave your information on your comment if you're willing. They are likely to listen if enough public support shows itself.

The infantilization of people like me never ceases and I'm never not angry about it. Fuck all of you who clung to your performative morality. I wish you the worst.
