🚨 KOSA UPDATE The added "duty of care" standard would force websites to identify minors to avoid legal risk, pushing the internet toward ID checks, facial scans, mass age-gating, excessive data collection and censorship FOR EVERYONE. Next comes a full Senate vote. Contact your senators NOW. (1/2)

The Senate Commerce Committee just passed KOSA out of committee with zero debate & failed to move the SCREEN Act. punchbowl.news/article/tech...

Dunno why, but Silent Hill Origins feels like the game I wanna play most now from the series. I wonder if that's just cause it's like the only one that still visually tries to stick to the gameplay style of the prior four. ...Speaking of four, I need to get back to playing SH4. It's been a bit.

THIS IS WHY!!!! WE CALL!!! GREAT JOB EVERYONE 🩷 KOSA did pass the house but remember the senate has a conflicting version. Keep calling, it matters!

SCREEN Act, which would have required mandatory age-verification for sites (like this) that allow "material harmful to minors" failed to pass out of committee after thousands and thousands of people called their Senators. More work ahead!

Now is not the time to back down. We need an overwhelm of calls going in to lawmakers this week. Call and call again tomorrow! 📲 www.badinternetbills.com

To be clear, the Senate version of KOSA passed today is completely different than the House version that passed earlier this year, making it very unlikely to become law. The Senate knows this yet they are committing to the farce of acting on kids safety.

The SCREEN Act just failed to pass in the Senate Commerce Committee! 🎉 Enormous thanks to the thousands (!!) of you who told your Senators to vote no! Your voice matters and you should feel good that you made a difference. Obviously, the fight isn't over, but this was an important victory.

SOME GOOD NEWS! continue to contact your reps re: KOSA and the KIDS Act, but also give yourself a pat on the back if you called! Your voice mattered!

Remember as your eyes burn from the smoke today, Ken Sim and ABC voted to allow fracked gas in new builds, cancelled $8 million in climate retrofit grants; voted against funding for cooling kits for people in the Downtown Eastside; and got rid of the climate justice charter.

Hey, folks. There's a @gofundme.com set up for artist Andy Fish, who is going through a very tough fight with two forms of cancer. He and his wife, cartoonist Veronica Fish (my Blackwood series cohorts) could use some help during this very tough time. I'm donating, hope you can. tinyurl.com/4wa86a6c

I apologize for the lack of updates. I just got into a rental house with what little items I grabbed before evacuating. The money I’ve received so far from donations are going to help me buy furniture and clothes, as I still have no bed or a desk to work on.

I don’t care if I’m revealing my location. Last night, my house was destroyed from the Old Trails fire burning in Spokane, Washington. I have my family, my pets, but nothing else. I won’t have anyway to make money for a while, so I need donations. paypal.me/HFehlig

I've found this is probably one of the best ways to create fight scenes for your stories. The majority of set pieces I've thought up were from doing this. Honestly even outside of action.

Charles Moss - Commissions are Open@mossanimation.bsky.social · 20h ago

I gotta make those goddamn animatics.

If SCREEN were to pass, you'd be required to scan your face and upload an ID to access this site because it allows "harmful" material. This affects you even if you don't care about sex work or porn.

Mike Lee's SCREEN Act, which heads to Senate Commerce Committee for markup on Wednesday, would expand age verification requirements to a nearly limitless scope of websites, and is supported by the architects of Project 2025.

We all agree children need to be protected from exposure to obscenity and predators. The problem comes in the definition of what "obscenity" and a "predator" is. They think it's anyone pro-LGBTQIA+. They want to "protect" children from exposure TO US. They want to classify our lives as "obscene".

The SCREEN Act is not just another age-verification bill — it goes much further than anything passed at the state-level or in other countries. 1. The bill doesn't just target porn sites. It goes after *any* site that allows material "harmful" to minors. You'd have to scan your face to use Google.

S.1748 will endanger vulnerable communities, allow censorship, and establish a de-factor age-verification system. It's obvious age verification is really more about online-ID and tying every interaction to a specific user. #KOSA #BadInternetBills #KIDSAct #Censorship #AgeVerification #OnlineID

Last night yet another person walked through the busted down gate to scream at our neighbor's house. He broke his fucking door down and threatened to kill him. It's fucking scary this shit keeps happening in the middle of the night.

"i don't have any time" it's okay me neither. it's fine if it takes you months or years. it's fine if you never finish. just give it a shot, you might like it. "it's gonna be bad" that's okay. humans need to make bad art to live.
