‼️URGENT: KOSA has been officially introduced in the House as of today.

We need to spread the word on social media and urge people to send emails to Congress through stopkosa.com.

• There will be a hearing on Wednesday (17th April) where KOSA, along with some other bad internet bills, like the Protecting Kids on Social Media Act could be pushed.

• We will be having a calling day on TUESDAY (16 th April) to make clear to Congress that there is still a ton of opposition to these bills.

They also have an animal one that I linked a whole back on the same site !

Let's gooooo

So for anyone curious, a couple of Swedish-Palestinian brothers have launched a new brand of soft drinks in Sweden, serving as an alternative to Pepsi and Coke because of their complicity in the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians and their continuous support for the Settler Colonial stay. As you may have expected, these new drinks grew popular in a matter of days that they're already hitting store shelves everywhere. The brothers are also planning on expanding it to Denmark and Norway. The surplus of the money they earn goes directly to Palestine.

Here's their official site

In regards to KOSA:

While it is true that Congress does return from recess Feb. 26th, that doesn’t automatically mean they’ll immediately jump into voting.

The bill only has enough support to pass the Senate—it’ll most likely stall at the House; both due to it having much less support there & how disorganized the House currently is. Even if it does pass—God forbid, the President would have to sign it for it to be official and even then, it’ll likely take several months before it goes into effect.

…That being said, please continue to call both your Senators & especially your House representative; We still don’t even have a concrete date for a vote—You can visit the website pictured to even see for yourself.

Please spread this around. Don’t panic, We still have time!!!

New Update on Kosa! Everyone Reblog. It's NOT all over on the 26th.

If you wanna protect AO3 or character ai. Or Wattpad. Or Tumblr. Or discord. Or even the right for undocumented people and minors to use the fucking Internet reblog this I swear to God. Reblog this and reblog as many KOSA posts as you can go on their website and contact your Representatives. Do it. Do it. Do it.

THEY WON'T TAKE THIS! REPOST PLEASE!

I wanted to take a second to personally thank Daily Wet Heavy for destroying my tumblr archive forever

its official: tumblr is selling our data to Midjourney

we'd been hearing rumors about this for a bit but now its open and out there. some details from this article

it goes without saying, but if @staff goes through with this its going to be an utter shitshow and im all but certain the website will not survive it.

everyone go enable this immediately. it can be a bit hard to find because “visibility” is under blog settings instead of general settings or privacy. you have to do this individually for each separate side-blog

if you can’t find it on the app then the update probably hasn’t rolled out to you, and you’ll have to go through the web browser. what a truly wild way/time to implement this

tumblr has an AI toggle you should turn on to prevent your work being shared with training models/etc! it's under settings & visibility.

you have to do this with every single side blog btw. just doing this to your main is not enough.

Prevent third-party sharing

This option will prevent your blog's content, even when reblogged, from being shared with our licensed network of content and research partners, including those that train AI models.

In the app:

- Tap your account settings (the little human), and select the blog (if not already selected) in the top, left-hand corner of the screen.

- Tap the gear icon, select "Visibility," and turn on the "Prevent third-party sharing for [your blog name]" switch.

On the web:

Visit your blog settings.

- In the "Visibility" section, turn on the "Prevent third-party sharing for [your blog name]" switch.

- If you've already chosen to discourage searching of your blog, we've automatically enabled the "Prevent third-party sharing" option.

GET KOSA TRENDING.

STOP SCROLLING NOW!

AS OF FEBRUARY 21ST, 2024, WE GOT FIVE DAYS UNTIL THE DAY OF DECISION OF THE KOSA BILL, WHICH WILL CAUSE MASS CENSORSHIP ROUND THE INTERNET IF PASSED. OR DOOMSDAY. WE NEED EVERYONE TO KNOW ABOUT THIS AND CONTRIBUTE. I'M NOT GIVING UP ON YOU ALL.

WE'RE DOWN TO THE WIRE BUT WE CAN'T GIVE UP YET. IF WE GIVE UP, EVERYTHING IS OVER. IF WE DON'T, AT LEAST WE HAVE A CHANCE.

I'M THE ONE WHO SOUNDED THE ALARM, AND I'M NOT GOING TO CURL UP AND DIE YET.
