It works on some levels. We need to continue to opt out and criticize.

Meta on Friday paused a new artificial intelligence feature on Instagram that allowed users to generate images based on people’s public accounts, citing widespread criticism.

I keep seeing people thinking this is a bluesky problem. If you're seeing this it thinks you're in a state or country with age verification laws. This is what every social media site will do if KOSA and the KIDS Act succeeds. Running to another socmed won't fix it, we have to fight the source.

Well i dont know how long this login session is gonna last but @bsky.app just asked me to do an age verification with personal information. If this happens again i will not attempt to log back in. If i dont post here again let bsky know that i prefer my privacy over this platform.

Anti-porn, anti-sex worker, and anti-sex censorship directly corresponds to a tilt downward into a more ideologically conservative and oppressive society. Regardless of your personal comfort with nsfw content on the internet, it's absolutely critical to support it right now.

Suzanne ✨🌑@tendermiasma.com · 2mo ago

If you have nsfw set to "hide" I implore you to set it to "warn". You still won't see anything except for a blurred post Otherwise once they roll out account-wide adult content labeling a whole lot of people including me are going to disappear from your timelines, even our sfw text posts

@bsky.app Change the way you treat artists. If you take away why artists and their fans came here … you‘ll loose people.

Paul Scott Canavan@paulscottcanavan.com · 2mo ago

Hey, @bsky.app, this sort of moderation is absolutely insane. This is my friend, I just wanted to see what he was up to. You have a huge artist community here who helped grow this site. If you keep this up you’re going to drive us all away. Sort it out.

April was another nice month regarding books! Out of the 9 books 4 were audiobooks, 2 grafic novels and 2 very nice advanced reader copies. List of books with authors in 🧵. [ 🏳️‍🌈📚🏳️‍⚧️ 💙📚🌶️ #QueerBooks #RomanceReads #SapphicBooks #AchilleanBooks ]

This novel contains the opposite of normative stereotypical characters. It’s about exploring gender identity and polyamory, growing new friendships and facing family dynamics and expectations - and more 💕 By @authordcemerson.bsky.social ARC-review in 🧵. [ 🏳️‍🌈📚🏳️‍⚧️ 🌶️📚💙 #TransBooks #AroAce ]

I made a #LinoPrint for the wonderful sapphic YA novel “The Lesbiana’s Guide to Catholic School“ by @sonidoreyes.bsky.social . a great mix of a tender and bold romance, the love of siblings for each other, closeted teenagers, family dynamics and the lived reality of se*ism, homophobia and racism.

I‘m surprised how many good books I read in March. 8 of them were audiobooks and 2 grafic novels. [ 🏳️‍🌈📚🏳️‍⚧️ 🌶️📚💙 #RomanceReads #QueerBooks #TransBooks #AchilleanBooks #SapphicBooks ]

🏳️‍⚧️ Today’s recommendation during the @trreadathon.bsky.social to read all year round: The Borrow a Boyfriend Club 💗 a cute and positive YA novel queer teenagers without the need for labels for their orientation - great to read first crush, finding your own worth, sharing your own truth

@attie.ai, for those who wanna press the funny buttons too

Jay 🦋@jay.bsky.team · 4mo ago

Today, we’re excited to introduce Attie, currently as an invite-only closed beta. Attie is the first agentic social app on atproto. It’s something completely new — an experiment in making building on the protocol more accessible.

🏳️‍⚧️📚🏳️‍🌈 Today’s recommendation during the @trreadathon.bsky.social to read all year round: 🔥 Fire Spells between Friends Queernormative Regency era London. Emrys is a fae and member of the ton, his mother works at the council for fae and human relations and he‘s the heir to his family‘s fortune. (🧵)

Today’s recommendation during the @trreadathon.bsky.social to read all year round: Atlas & Miles Miles and especially Atlas crash gender stereotypes in quite a cool and at the same time sensitive way! [ 🏳️‍⚧️📚🏳️‍🌈 💙📚🌶️ #TransBooks #GenderfluidBooks #QueerBooks ]

Today’s recommendation (for the @trreadathon.bsky.social or to read all year round): a queer monster erotica & romance about a famous adult entertainer and two minotaurs by @robinjomargaret.bsky.social [ 🏳️‍⚧️📚🏳️‍🌈 💙📚🌶️ #TransBooks ]

Today’s recommendation (for the @trreadathon.bsky.social or to read all year round): Dear Bartleby by @sarahwallacewriter.bsky.social . Ohhh 💗💗 - this is a Regency era romance involving magic, with a queernormative society, playing on the countryside, told via a diary (=Bartleby) …

Today’s recommendation: One of the Boys 💗 #TRR 🏳️‍⚧️📚🏳️‍🌈 It was such a pleasure to watch Grace deal with her autonomy, her body, being more herself in every step of the way, standing up for herself, staying in contact with her friends, society in general. In a very honest and raw way.

Today’s recommendation (for the TRR or to read all year round) is a web comic that can be read in the app Tapas. “Gender-fluid and ase*ual, all Eri wants is to find a connection, or fall in love in this society that has a high preference for physical intimacy and se*. It aint that easy.“

Today‘s recommendation for the @trreadathon.bsky.social and to read all year round: The Conflict Mediation series has representation for dyslexia, adhd and anxiety, a trans main character and an achillean story. [ 🏳️‍⚧️📚🏳️‍🌈 💙🏳️‍🌈🌶️ #TRR #TransBooks #RomanceReads #QueerBooks ]

Today‘s book recommendation for the @trreadathon.bsky.social and to read all year round: a Regency era grafic novel about 3 friends. One of them is trans (on the right on the cover) and over the time it gets clearer that only living by the sexist and cishet standards by society isn’t an option.

For this year’s @trreadathon.bsky.social and to read all year round I want to tell you about some books I really liked. @moonbooks.bsky.social made a cute grafic of us and a design for sharing their darker and my fluffier reads 🤗 [ 🏳️‍⚧️📚🏳️‍🌈 💙📚🌶️ #TransRightsReadathon #TransBooks #QueerBooks ]
