Melthora's Den

Last I'll post about this, but Elon Musk disagrees with me. This means I am onto something, and I feel more valid in my opinion than ever.

Ross explains how the EU Kids Act is cover for making private servers without age verification illegal, and expanding surveillance under the guise of protecting kids. Here's how to fight back: - Spread the word and this video far and wide! Let the public know what's happening! ...

alright my health and finances are both totally fucked I don't really have much choice but to grovel and plead for more financial support, I'm sorry please support me if you can, and share it around if you know anyone who likes my stuff or would like to commission something. I'm trying my best

Dungeon Tourists gameplay reveal in #WholesomeDirect2026 ! I'm a solo dev working very hard on this game. Please go wishlist it >:) meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow

We are losing ground everywhere. Adult content is being banned and censored in place after place. We MUST protect one of the few places that still stands it's ground. It is our moral obligation if you value artistic freedom. Individual support might be small but we are many!

CSP being pressed to take even just /kissing/ off their asset store and FA being told that plus sized characters are considered adult should be a giant waving red flag to folks. Sex workers have /always/ been right to say these policies never stop with 1 type of content. They always wanna ban more.

FA is the only anti-ai, ACTUAL functional gallery site left on the internet not ruined by algorythmic bs, support if you can

Trust me when I tell you that few lawmakers have thought through any of the implications. Frighteningly few understand the technology. Others don't understand why we need privacy on the internet — or think only criminals do. That's why calling / writing / fighting is so important.

www.kickstarter.com/projects/cor... I really like the aesthetic and vibes this game gives off especially in the character and enemy design department! I pitched in and if you like this kinda stuff too so should you! :)) If you're strapped for cash (aren't we all) at the very least spread the word!

If you're not going to look for/use alternatives to Discord, you should at least cancel Nitro. Please just do the bare minimum at the very least. A lot of people put way too much confidence in others doing the hard part for the sake of not giving up some minor convenience. Now's not the time.

I will add pressure to this by saying that any company that claims to not hold onto your personal data after verifying you? They're lying. Ive been nitro free since the first time they tried this, voice how you feel with your wallet people. Make them really feel that squeeze.

none of the original devs and writers are on this and its being worked on with some vague AI engine, just save your money for something like Stupid Never Dies in 6 weeks or just emulate the original game with all the license music and costumes on the ps3 emulator, it's surprisingly easy to do.

"If trans people want a boycott of The New York Times, where's the call to do so?" Here is a declaration laying out how the NYT is a key driver of trans genocide, why boycotts work and why anyone who gives a damn about trans lives and rights must boycott The New York Times.

I say this but I'm nowhere near reaching 1tb like some folk. i need to up my game

this is the final chance....if this goes through, we are all fucked.... Republican...democrat...doesn't matter who you are... we are all equally fucked if this goes through...

What can you do? CALL. WRITE. SCREAM. The bill is up for a vote THIS WEDNESDAY. Call your Senator. Dem. Republican. Whomever. Right now, it's a solid R bill, but they're looking for Dems to take it across the finish line. Let them know how badly it stinks. www.defendonlineprivacy.com/screen/

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.

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.

I haven't even made an announcement yet- damn ! But ye I made a game few months ago. haven't made any update and probably wont make any, but it's playable ! Anyway it's up over Itch !

"what can I do?" Call your reps and tell them to vote no on the Online Safety bill package because things will get worse the more censorship laws are allowed to pass. Tell your reps that payment processors must allow legal content. Go yell at youtube for their shitty TOS.

if you make art of any kind, express yourself for an audience of others in any way, you are a pornographer. you arent next, you're part of it now.

#stopKOSA #NoToDigitalID #savespeech Unfortunate news: The markup is real www.commerce.senate.gov/meetings/exe... Significantly fewer shitty bills but not good. Keep calling reps & the CST committee - www.congress.gov/state-legisl... - 5calls.org/issue/age-ve... - badinternetbills.com

Lilith, the game creator behind the demake of Bloodborne and Nightmare Kart, has contracted a skull-eating bacteria and needs support. Please consider supporting what you can to an incredible creator well-deserving of community support! gofund.me/7cfed6410

Thanks for this Casey! My friends and I write within a shared universe that is explicitly queer and focuses on the Villains who struggle in a world where Heroes serve the status quo! All of our books are available from @furplanet.com, and free here: docs.google.com/document/d/1...

If you use generative A/I for literally anything you are a fucking loser.

"Don't worry," they said, "the government ID checks are only for porn sites!" Bro they're about to reclassify the Gundam fan forums as porn because of a fiery discussion about the post-Reconstruction period

I know that most of our digital tools are controlled by awful billionaires and it's almost impossible for us to divest ourselves of all of them. But I think that X and Substack are so horribly toxic that everyone should avoid them as much as possible.

I code my furries black because I wanna see people like me in art especially in a niche I enjoy. that's rly it.

🧵: FYI ALL users in Texas are blocked from Bluesky. Not many people seem to be chatting about this! This is extremely unnecessary and is purely for surveillance. This NEEDS to not happen and there NEEDS to be awareness for this type of shit.

They're building a digital prison and most people don't even know it. Your art, your free expression, your dissent. Literally anything they find objectionable they want to label as "obscene" and debank and imprison you for.

This website is made by vibe coding so I doubt there's anyone actually working support, but if everyone can bug Staff and tell them to reinstate @charredasperity.bsky.social maybe I can get my account back, I need it for work.

Another lil guide on how to merge parts without sticking everything together✨

DO NOT SLEEP ON THIS.

If anyone is getting smacked with this - just use deer.social or another alternate client. Bsky is just an AT Protocol Client, and your Bsky account is an AT Protocol account - you can use your same Bsky account thru another AT Protocol Client, no migration or loss necessary. Could not be easier.

Reposting because of the sony news

Any artist that "doesn't do politics" I ask that you put that aside. If this passes and Trump signs it it will DRASTICALLY change the internet and affect your job. Especially if you're an nsfw artist or activist. This bill includes gutting section 230. Please call your senators before it's too late

I keep seeing people thinking this is a bluesky problem. If you're seeing this it thinks you're in a state or country with age verification laws. This is what every social media site will do if KOSA and the KIDS Act succeeds. Running to another socmed won't fix it, we have to fight the source.
