(he/him) I used to play as a troll. Now I play as a hrothgar. 🤷♂️ FFXIV and MtG stuff along with other nerdery. Previously known as @VoodontWoW on the dead app. And yes, hrothgar pets are traditional.
In my opinion Democrats get nothing nothing NOTHING by betraying trans people. They hurt themselves with a good deal of their committed voter base, and still don’t get the Republican votes they are so fucking obsessed with winning over. Lose-lose! People hate voting for squishy moral cowards!!
Any of you at #PAX? If so, please read - an attendee needs your urgent help.
Jed (they/them)@ohshitcircuit.bsky.social · 3w agoURGENT: if anyone is at PAX or knows someone at PAX who can check the lost and found for me, someone close to me is missing a bag containing medication that is dangerous to miss a dose of. I will drive there if I have to but parking is gonna be disgusting

Hackers Had A Live Feed Of Every ID This Verification Company Scanned. For Over A Year.
From the very beginning of this recent obsession with identifying everyone online (yes, they like to call it "age" verification, but it always ends up as identity verification), we've been pointing out that it was a huge privacy nightmare waiting to happen. Or maybe it wasn't waiting. Maybe it was already happening. This week a...

there is no such thing as "age verification." All "age verification" is actually "identity verification." You can coat it in glitter and "privacy-preserving" wrapping paper. But in the end, mandating age verification means mandating surveillance be built into software and hardware. Period.
i look forward to never having to think about this process ever again

This will get worse if KOSA and the KIDS Act pass. Go yell at your reps
Bluesky Safety@safety.bsky.app · 3mo agoTexas passed an age assurance law that requires Bluesky to verify the age of users. This law was paused by a judge and then unpaused by an appeals court, so we are preparing to comply. If you saw an age assurance notice today, that's why. Read about the law here: ccianet.org/news/2026/05...
Wake up, guys: time to badger your Congressman again. This is the latest version of the crappy KOSA bill: "push online services to verify all users’ ages, require government-directed moderation policies for online speech, and even create new rules about private and encrypted communications."
