Just some doodles, nothing fancy here... There's an art blog thing over yonder... Dev Art

So p/atreon is amping up its lockdown on nsfw material, gumroads is amping up its nsfw material-

Pornhub is currently not available in texas.

KOSA keeps coming closer to getting actually passed-

Can people please just admit that nsfw is being driven underground? That adult artists are being banned and pushed out of their spaces?

And dont start saying "oh just the yucky stuff." No, this is *ALL* Nsfw.

We are losing spaces left and right...

Not only that, it feels like we creatives are being killed. And that isnt exactly hyperbolic.

Paypal implemented taxes not that long ago, a hit to those who use it. Artists especially. Midjourney and other ai, stealing artworks, having people think less of artists.

Platforms kicking and banning artists left and right.

It feels like being an indie creator is being choked out of possibility. That you have to be born rich and lucky for your creative dreams to come true.

"oh you're just a porn addict its not that bad"

Its not that bad until your stuff is banned.

We had ROE VS FUCKING WADE thrown out the window. You dont think we could have LGBTQA+ rights thrown out too!?

The internet is becoming SO HOSTILE to creatives of all sorts. Its fucking heartbreaking.

Its like we're entering nsfw prohibition of the internet, buy a 160 dollar keychain for a 'free' picture of a dragon fucking a Volkswagen 😭

Exactly. And if people think it's just 'porn' being banned, they're wrong.

The lgbtq community is going to be the first to be thrown under the bus, especially with states like Missouri proposing laws where teachers are not even allowed to address a trans student by their preferred pronouns.

In other states, merely dressing as you identify is now being deemed as 'pornographic' and a crime.

It doesn't matter how 'wholesome' you think your queer art or writing is. It's going to be lumped in with anything lgbtq, and as far as the alt-right is concerned, it will be seen as immoral 'porn'.

This ban is the alt-right taking yet another step over the line to see how hard we will fight back.

Give. Them. Hell.

KOSA is the next step, and if it passes, we're fucked.

Some creatives are talking to attorneys about suing. If you're being negatively impacted financially by these policies then I strongly recommend putting yourself on this mailing list at least.

and just to be really really clear:

sex workers have been hit first and hit hardest and we've got to follow their lead in this fight

remember SESTA/FOSTA?

remember EARN IT?

remember the SAFE Tech Act?

the US is a huge player in internet regulations but it's not just the US that keeps introdicing bills like this

If you have republican reps:

If you have democratic reps:

[transcript in alt text for both]

'you still listen to music from 10 years ago 🤨?' bitch if prehistoric humans had audio recording technology id be sat up here listening to grog and unga bunga's greatest hits don't play with me

the confetti for a not guilty verdict is actually the funniest fucking thing about ace attorney

it’s like they inherently know their system is fucked to the to the extent that they’ve got the celebration confetti at the ready when they don’t wrongfully incarcerate someone

edgeworth never lost a trial until he faced phoenix wright so the confetti goes off and he’s probably like what the fuck ppfthh pffth phhh that last bit is him spitting the confetti out of his mouth

edgeworth, losing a trial for the first time:
