that (inevitable) moment in fandom where you go from "oh, no, im just going to read for this pairing/fandom, i don't see myself writing for it!" to "wellllllll, if the right idea ever came to me....."

An Unsexy Post About Censorship

Sooo...gumroad is shutting down NSFW content sales because of Stripe and Paypal. This is also why Wishtender has been down as well, if you weren't aware. And why Patreon is also cracking down on anything remotely kinky.

(If you're wondering why your favorite FICTIONAL sexual content isn't allowed on most platforms, it's payment processors.)

Please be extra kind to anyone who works with NSFW content right now, whether it be art, writing, audio, photos or video. Whether it be tasteful erotica, or the kinkiest BDSM porn you can think of, we're all in the crosshairs right now.

And, judging by trends from these past few years, this is only going to get worse.

Support NSFW creators where you can, whether by tipping or buying our content (where you still can) or just helping boost content on sites where algorithms want to drown us out.

Call representatives where you can and complain about payment processors acting as arbiters of what YOU are and aren't allowed to pay for and enjoy.

This may be about porn right now, but censorship of this caliber doesn't just stop with porn. Any transgressive (read: non-conservative) media is fair game.

Fight against it where you can. Support creators where you can.

Art is important. Reflections of our sexuality are important. We don't want a world where people aren't free to make or see the things they love and enjoy.

I also need to say this but Im gonna be a real hater bitch for a moment. But being even vaguely aware about animal welfare + behavioral cues, especially in dogs and reptiles, absolutely ruins every little joy that you once had about animal-focused online spaces. It also hinders your relationships with people in your every day life.

Being a tride and true dog lover is so hard because it just sours everything about the social perception of "dog people" for you. There are so many examples of dog videos going viral where the dog in question is exhibiting severe stress signals... or just the wide spread of misinformation regarding dog breeding or shelters / adopt-dont-shop mindsets. Don't even get me started on viral "first introduction" videos where they just let two animals loose in the same area at the same time 😑

Truly the most Ignorance Is Bliss situation ever.

BREAKING NEWS: canon character banned from own series for being "too problematic" (by the same community that also thinks visibly disabled characters(and likely people in general) need to be censored or otherwise hidden because "some people think that's gross" which is a mixed signal at best. Do we care about their feelings or not)

Hey I saw some people sharing an infographic with this logo on it and, uh, I’m assuming you don’t know much about this group?

Stop Zionist Hate is a neo-nazi organization and platform. If you see the SZH logo do not spread their posts. They’re using your sympathy for Palestine to lead you into agreeing with their white supremacy. Don’t fall for it. Fuck Zionists. Fuck Nazis.

Hmm... I've been thinking. Like. Obviously I'm not planning on getting into any sticky situations and Kyle is mostly to help with my fear of ghost types but like... Another backup battler wouldn't be too bad right...? Plus Kyle would have someone to spar with and maybe stop trying to fight Greg... And double battles are a thing...

EMERGENCY FUNDS NEEDED FOR DISABLED QUEER

my ONE source of income, my generous grandmother, has fallen ill and failed to tell me that she wouldn't be able to cover my rent this month. i've been operating under the assumption that i'd get my usual check today, but was informed yesterday by my father that no, she doesn't actually have the money and she's too sick to help me.

this is the worst possible timing bc i'm already a month late on rent, as a vet bill had set me back almost $400 last month. my landlady has lost her patience with me and told me if I didn't pay by tomorrow, they would be starting the legal process of eviction AND suing me for whatever pennies i have

i'm asking friends and family for donations and a few are able to help, but i'm terrified it won't be enough.

my disabilities prevent me from working any regular job, and there aren't a lot of places that will hire someone who moves as slow as i do, no matter how good my customer service is. i'm still applying for remote jobs and looking for other solutions. and my second disability application is still pending.

times are hard so i understand completely that most of y'all can't afford to donate every time you see one of these posts, but any support or advice helps!!

so ive come to realise that i do in fact love the french cucumber star man, but i also now have an incredibly specific vision on how the flower fits into his design and i have not let it go ever since i actually watched one of his streams

along other specifics on how his cucumberness looks and works

but i am also acutely aware that most people did not spent >5 years of their life working with cucumbers and so most people really are not all that opinionated on cucumbers ╯︿╰
