"The Wounds Of Battle Can Be Healed, But Never Hidden"

Happy Halloween!

This excellent visual representation of that old scam, “trickle down economics”, has been all over Twitter recently.

I like ti think either smoke , finka or ela now realize they have to work with ace more often abd interact with 100% more than they wish to and are going

"Perhaps I didn't think this through"

Common reaction really, even that NH employee talking with Ace on Osa's animation was looking like she'd rather be anywhere else. Same for Osa when Ace jumps on the car with her 😂

I wonder if they have chat groups to warn people of his movements: "last seen going to the cafeteria, try to not get caught alone in the corridors!" lmao

She looks so cute 😍

Why The Titties Cannot Come Back Until FOSTA-SESTA Goes Away

It's the reason for the porn ban across the internet, it's the reason Net Neutrality is gone, and it has, as the sex worker community tried to tell us, harmed sex workers and doesn't help trafficking go away at all--particularly because of the vague wording and broad definitions, all it really does is ban porn, harrass the queer community, and censor all talk about sexuality into silence--and silence does not make safety. There is now a study about its effects, and sex workers weren't consulted or listened to about its flaws.

If you want the internet to stop censoring queer content, FOSTA-SESTA has to go.

If you want tumblr and other websites to have porn again, FOSTA-SESTA has to go.

If you want algospeak to stop being the norm, FOSTA-SESTA HAS TO GO.

There is NOTHING that tumblr staff can do without this law being gone.

There is NOTHING that any moderator, website, or app can do without Net Neutrality being reinstated and iron-clad again.

Did you all forget what caused the porn ban in the first place? It was not a random decision every company made overnight.

It was FOSTA-SESTA.

Freedom of speech is called Net Neutrality online, and until 2018, Net Neutrality was sacrosanct.

We must have Net Neutrality back if we are to have the freedom to speak online.

If you are queer, you must fight for Net Neutrality. If you have opinions about anything, you must fight for your right to say them. FOSTA-SESTA TOOK THAT FROM YOU. TOOK IT FROM US ALL.

If you want things to change, don't whine to staff on tumblr, don't boycott Tiktok.

you must get political. you must organise to remove FOSTA-SESTA from the books. You must clamour, and holler, and write your politicians and raise up the voices of sex workers and VOTE to protect your free speech.

Pornography and sex work are inextricable from freedom of speech. The right of pornography and sex work to exist is inextricable from the rights of queer folks. If you do not fight to protect your right to 'dirty books' and uphold 'rule 34' they will come after YOU next. They already are coming after queers just like they always do when a ban on porn is involved! It will escalate until it comes after EVERYONE.

I cannot emphasise enough that all this censorship increasing since 2018 is connected to the porn ban. It is the same oppressive and harmful legislation causing it.

GET RID OF FOSTA-SESTA.

It is harming sex workers, even killing them.

It is harming trafficking victims.

It is harming all of us, queer and straight, adults and children, it is harming everybody by taking away our freedom of speech.

Get rid of it.

internet friends are kinda like illegally downloaded friends. you don’t get the physical copy but you still get all the great content

No ❤️

They call him “The Handsome Monkey King” or at least that’s what they used to call this brazen, arrogant and ambitious simian.

I redid the King cause I didn’t like his other model, so this is the newer one! If your keeping up with the story, this post will make sense eventually, but for now, take my Sun Wukong design while I go write chapter 2 👍🥹

You guys do know you're supposed to reblog things, right

SIEGEMAS 2023

Mariah Carey is almost fully unfrozen, so it’s time to think who we’re gonna enlist to help us decorate the place for Christmas!

This is how the Siegemas event works: once the registration period is over, we’ll provide the participants with a list of prompts to choose from, and a date to publish the fic. If you want to participate, you just need to send us an ask/dm/message informing us that you want to joing, and provide your preferred name/handle and ways to contact you.

The publishing dates will be around the week before Christmas, approximately (depends on how many people sign up), so the registration will stay open until the November 20th.

As a reminder, the stories have to be around 1000 words long minimum, and be somewhat related to the theme/include your chosen prompt. But otherwise you have absolute freedom to write whatever you want. Don't be shy, everyone’s welcome to join, and we’re happy to see both old friends and new participants coming in!
