All my life I've wished I could pull off Slutty Loam but only managed Sandy Gay.

California bill AB 2047 mandates 3D printers analyze each print. These scans are only feasible through cloud-connected AI scans, a surveillance apparatus that’s prone to misuse and will chill lawful speech. Creators deserve better. www.eff.org/3DPrintCA

California lawmakers are advancing A.B. 2047 in the State Assembly within the next few weeks. The impact is surveillance, manufacturer lock-in, and censorship for all creators and in the state.

While fursuiting at opensauce some cringetubers stopped me to ask how my tail was attached. "Is is a buttplug?" Not for you lmao. They asked how old I am and disliked the answer. Its honestly been so long since I've had a negative interaction I forgot people like that exist unironically.
