It was alway going to come to this. The Heritage Foundation has released an update to Project 2025. An 86-page "Saving the Family" which mentions porn 109 times, and blames it for undermining the family and, by extension, birth rates and the health of nation.

I hope everyone who supports this type of legislation understands that this type of shit will doom the youths they seek to protect, the family values they claim to uphold, and the people they claim to represent.

You shouldn’t have to present your ID, credit card info, or face to be scanned just to access your favorite sites, news, or games yet this is the growing reality for Internet users globally. We need a firestorm to take down online ID checks for good-- so we planned one. Join us for a week of action!

Centralizing processing of government IDs is a great way to save costs, but it also makes them very juicy, high value targets for hackers. These "third party identity verification services" are now finding out that their systems are not sufficiently secure for any of this. Very fun.

Simply to reduce the risk of getting shut down by payment processors for hosting pornographic images. I don't even know if that concern is just unwarranted paranoia on my part, but I don't want to risk getting shut down and financially ruined because of the increased scrutiny by payment processors.

A lot of NSFW content has been removed from places like Steam and itchio recently, but you might not know this is actually the result of a campaign that has been going on for decades. Here's how anti-porn groups got the power to censor the internet. youtu.be/SmHHnPLllUk

I shouldn't need consent from some sexless coked up jackass at VISA HQ to let people share 3D models on the internet. I'd be very happy to hear a solution that allows platforms, creators and sex workers to do business in a safe and responsible manner, because I'm very, very tired.

There is a small izakaya/bar that I always visit when I'm in Tokyo. The owner and the regular patrons know me well, and it's always a good vibe. When I visited in December 2024, the owner mentioned that a very famous American actor had visited the past 5 days and would be visiting again that night.

what's the most random interaction you've ever had with a celebrity?

Ton has a passion for creation that is incredibly contagious. I remember our talk on his vision for Blender, and now, 5 years later, parts of that vision are clearly visible in the final product. He is the guiding light for the Blender team, and that talk we had has inspired me to this day.

John seemed to already be pretty buzzed, and he was kind enough to look at the camera while the owner insisted we pose for a picture with him. I imagine clinging to the early fame of your 20s and visiting small-scale horror Japanese conventions in your 70s is hard work, so I understand the mindset.

This piqued my interest, so despite my intent to catch the last train to the hotel, we stayed at the bar as late as possible to catch a glimpse of this famous Hollywood character. We had almost given up around midnight. the famed mystery guest and his handler would arrive 5 minutes later.

What followed was the most anticlimactic celebrity encounter ever. Our mystery guest was John Dugan, famous known as Grandpa Sawyer in The Texas Chain Saw Massacre. I hadn't seen it at the time, but had seen much worse, and lower budget horror schlock, so I felt embarrassed to not know who he was.

You are up to date.
