Streamer. I also make art! Don't post very often, though, but trying to at least post every week or so. Maybe. 23 and 🩷💜💙 He/they(/sometimes she)
When calling, emphasize the overreach that this gives the tech industry and how it gives them an excuse to collect even more sensitive data. Some of these people think they're holding big tech accountable. Emphasize to them that they're not. We've beat SCREEN for now, but this is still an issue.
Fight for the Future@fightforthefuture.org · 6d ago‼️ALERT: KOSA is moving next week to the Senate Commerce Committee for markup! Call your reps today, again tomorrow, and all weekend leaving messages opposing this dangerous censorship bill. www.badinternetbills.com
🚨 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)
Fight for the Future@fightforthefuture.org · 14h agoThe Senate Commerce Committee just passed KOSA out of committee with zero debate & failed to move the SCREEN Act. punchbowl.news/article/tech...
While the SCREEN Act failed in the committee, KOSA did move forward. Contact your senators immediately demanding it be opposed, and keep the pressure up until it comes to a vote in the Senate

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!
Free Speech Coalition@fsc.bsky.social · 15h agoSCREEN 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!
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.
404 Media@404media.co · 2d agoMike 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.
‼️ACTION ALERT: The Senate Commerce Committee is holding “kids safety” circus again, this time considering both KOSA (the Kids Online Safety Act) & SCREEN Act, two of the most dangerous censorship & age verification bills on the table! CALL YOUR LAWMAKERS & TELL THEM TO OPPOSE 📲 248-331-8665
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.

Call your senators even if you think you have one that will not listen. Sacrificing everyone’s privacy is an incredibly high cost. Australia had a similar law that is already showing that it doesn’t protect kids. The idea that this protects kids is a Trojan horse for surveillance on the internet

It will be worse than this! Most websites will be forced to ask you to send your ID to a third party surveillance service, adding a credit card won't be enough for most. Bluesky asks for your *social security number* if you live in Texas now, due to this shit. Call in, and kill it.
Eromancer@eromancer.bsky.social · 4d agoThis will be the US if the SCREEN Act passes. Call your Senators before August 5 and tell them that you oppose the SCREEN Act, KOSA, and the KIDS Act. Use the official lookup tool at www.senate.gov/senators/sen... to find yours by state.
ArtFight is over, but I'm very happy about this attack I made for @malcontentvt.bsky.social. I put a bit more effort into this one than my other attacks.

Heads up, artists 🚨 There’s a massive scam wave hitting DeviantArt right now DO NOT CLICK IT. If you have artist friends on DA, please boost this. I’d hate to see someone lose their account or payment info over something this stupid 🖤 { #DeviantArt #ArtistBeware #ScamAlert }
Please use this link twitch.uservoice.com/forums/92338... and tell twitch how fucking insane this is. Comment and let twitch know that this is horrible. Thank you

Zach Bussey 🍁@zachbussey.tos.gg · 5d agoTwitch and Amazon are apparently planning to use streams to train Generative AI. Multiple sources tell me it will be announced in the coming months, despite some internal friction against it. Creators may be able to opt out of some training data.

What the hell is going on in my copy of Kirby Super Star Ultra, I don't remember this #Deltarune #Kirby
Any time someone argues the PS3/360 isn't retro they should have to post a popular meme of the time sincerely. Do it. See how that makes you feel.
Another ArtFight thingamajig. This time it's for @palmtreepigeon.bsky.social's Mixo! Mixo is the protagonist of a game they are making so show your support when it eventually comes out!
Two ArtFight things I forgot to post, mainly because of regional time differences. One is for peerkartosh (who doesn't have a BSky) and the other is for @yourob10.bsky.social.
