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!

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!

SCREEN failed to pass out of committee, despite a 15-13 vote (in favor). Not enough members voting, but looks like a party line vote. Good work everyone! Keep up the pressure for after recess and beyond!

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.

Keep. Fucking. CALLING. We need to make sure the decrepit old ghouls in power don't try to revive the SCREEN Act. For fuck sake it was only defeated by 2 fucking votes. That's way too close.

The bill isn't dead, of course — it can be brought back before the end of session — but given today's lack of engagement on it, that seems less likely than it would have even a few days ago. That's because of your calls, because of the work of @fsc.bsky.social, because of the journalists who

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.

If this shit passes, you won't be able to access anything queer, furry, or that puritans consider "objectionable". "iT w0Nt AfFeCt Me" it will, shut the fuck up, and read the article. Look at the names in it. Remember them. Remember the organizations trying to take your freedoms.

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.

If anyone needs a script for calling their senators today, here's what I said #StopKOSA #SaveSpeech #NodigitalID

Cassandra Lowell 🔞 writing erotica@cassie69a.bsky.social · yesterday

US folks: Today (August 4) is the last day to call your US senator before KOSA and the SCREEN Act go before committee tomorrow! Visit BadInternetBills.com for info and numbers to call. #StopKOSA #SaveSpeech #NodigitalID

I'm letting myself stream while in littlespace, twitch.tv/SoenOrdo

I am smol. Hihi friends!

Someday I will go to BFC. Not this year sadly because of costs and unexpected occurrences, like my mom getting cancer. She's responding well to the chemotherapy, but she's now easily tired.

Also while I'm at it, I do get healous of people who seem to take to things with extreme ease. Meanwhile I'm over here trying to find anything that both catches my attention and that I'm good at.

Gonna start seeing how to save money because I miss being able to go to cons. It sucks having PTSD that prevents you from driving. It has limited my opportunities for success. But I also dont want to get behind the wheel if I flash back and freeze up so easily.

This 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.

Work sucks today. Everything is finished so they're giving us busy work. Luckily I have my phone because I already finished my work.

Puddles hit the nail directly on the head. The tiktok and intagram furries are people who aren't really a part of the community. They're using fandom spaces for clout. They just want to be popular and mean. The entire thread is definitely worth reading in full.

Puddles@vaporeon.baby · 3d ago

One thing I've noticed about younger tiktok "furries" is that they simply don't actually use furry gallery sites. You *could* draw the conclusion that maybe the concept of gallery sites is antiquated to younger furries, but I don't think that's it. There are *plenty* of younger users on those sites

I main gunlance because its fun, and it makes the most hated monsters be slightly more tolerable. That and it's a fucking cannon combined with a lance and shield. Did I also mention the wound B L E N D E R ?

I finally got what I needed from grinding! @w@ Now the story can continue. Come watch me continue Persona 3 Reload at twitch.tv/SoenOrdo

Just woke up from a nap to find that y'all actually did tell me to go put on a diaper. Thank you ;w; I also found that laying on my tummy makes me feel small. I also need to wash some bedding.

I want someone to tell me to go and put on a diaper. I've been kinda depressed. I'm also tired.

Found this guy chilling. He was facing the opposite direction when I came back a while later. Think this was a week or so ago.

So the little part of me is fed up with being big. I've not regressed deeply in a while. I wanna be a toddler. Not allowed to make choices, not allowed to be a big girl. I wanna have my mama, dada, or siblings in charge of me. Enforced little time. I want attention and love.

No stream today, migraine.

Everyone who said I was fearmongering about this owes me a fucking apology.

//ASSERT: Subject is a critter@yotebutt.bsky.social · 6d ago

Oh hey, that thing everyone expected would happen is happening. It’s almost like portraying these age verification laws as rife for abuse by conservatives wasn’t just mindless fearmongering! How weird!

They gave me busy work at work today as the entire building has already been serviced. Putting the finishing touches on it basically. That and literally telling us once we're done to find something to do means I finally have a reason to watch all those youtube playlists I have.

pool day for the cow girl, all that fur makes her warm #diaperfur #abdl

Personally I feel that if you feel the need to hide who you are in queer spaces, that it means you have shame you need to unlearn. I was miserable when I kept my diaper fetish a closely guarded secret online. Like when I was open about it, it told me who was really my friend.
