FA isn't perfect, but its choice to stand up for artistic freedom is needed now more than ever. If you can't support, share - hold the line.

Tapping the sign because primaries are winding down and the general election is coming up. It sucks feeling like it means nothing but you can either try and maybe fail, or do nothing and suffer regardless, maybe worse.

If you are in the US and aren't already registered, now is the best time to before you forget and it's too late. The elections this year are going to be heavily scrutinized and the only way to silence the doubts of those calling foul play, is with overwhelming participation. www.vote.org

So I ended up getting this from our local store. Nostalgia whammy for sure and the box really does look like a vintage VHS tape. I'm not even ashamed that I started singing songs from the movie while toting it around the store.

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.

You know who we need most when companies overreach and desperately need reminding of their place? People who are already spending their cash on said company. I would love to start a Cancel Your Nitro Membership and Pass Along the Sentiment train. Just cancelled mine. Join me ✨ 🌹

Hi everyone! Looks like discord is STILL planning on enabling age verification bullshit. And it’s much worse than we thought. It might be time to start using and moving to Fluxer or Stoat now.

Almost every AI advocate that's sloughed their smelly carcasses into my mentions talk about how eager they are to see artists/writers/coders lose their jobs. And tbh thats been the point of this tech. To funnel money paid to skilled tradespeople to tech companies. Fuck AI and its advocates

John Linneman@dark1x.bsky.social

This is the kind of thing I see that directly demonstrates WHY so many are against AI. The people pushing this cannot help but start with "THIS WILL DESTROY YOUR JOBS" while talking about tech built on theft that's also making everything unaffordable. Gee, how exciting.

Contact ya reps Tell them about kosa, repealing section 130 and all the other bad bills and why they shouldn't do it. literally if any of the stupid ass internet bills pass it'll fuck something. Up with the internet. Especially kosa and section 230 repeal.

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!

Alison Boden@alisonboden.bsky.social

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.

Hawaiian reposted

To be clear, the Senate version of KOSA passed today is completely different than the House version that passed earlier this year, making it very unlikely to become law. The Senate knows this yet they are committing to the farce of acting on kids safety.

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/

Hawaiian reposted

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.

Please call, there's two more stops in the senate, and they're rumoured in trying to aim for the 29th of this month for a markup!!

Hey, a good way to celebrate Lindsey Graham kicking the bucket is to contact your senators about KOSA and the KIDS Act. Graham was a big proponent of these kinds of laws, as well as of gutting section 230.

The KIDS Act [containing KOSA] has passed the House This sucks, but its not the end. It still has to pass through the Senate committee and then be voted on by the Senate itself Please continue contactimg your Senators and demanding they oppose the KIDS Act & KOSA www.congress.gov/members/find...

I know im goin on about this a lot but please contact your senators about opposing KOSA and the KIDS Act. Please make friends and family aware of how this will effect them and their privacy.

Okay, so I guess people in Texas can't use this app anymore. How many of my friends are going to disappear now? ☹️ Also, this isn't going to stop with Texas. If the KIDS Act or KOSA isn't stopped, this'll be your future, too:

This will get worse if KOSA and the KIDS Act pass. Go yell at your reps

Bluesky Safety@safety.bsky.app

Texas 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...

Before anyone begins doomposting: There are still two stops it has to pass before it gets into law. And the senate doesn't like the House version of KOSA so there's a chance it doesn't pass. But don't just assume.

Hey so this new KOSA/KIDS Act proposal has a little note in it that creates a whole new special Trump-appointed team to regulate the internet. So no more Congress votes. No more checks & balances. Just whoever the president picks to decide the future of YOUR internet. You aren’t mad enough.
