In 2017 Ruroni Kenshin mangaka Nobuhiro Watsuki was caught with enough child pornography that he was suspected of distributing. He was only fined roughly $1500 USD and his sequel was allowed to continue after a temporary hiatus. Crunchyroll continues to support him by airing the sequel anime.

strawpage request for luchirick dangerous kissing (aka luchino putting his tongue down frederick's esophagus), i would like to redraw this more sexy in the future when im less tired and stressed 😭 #luchirick #idvnsfw

two black and white drawings of luchino (lizard) and frederick kissing. the left side has luchino starting to put his tongue down frederick's throat, while the right side luchino holds frederick closer as his tongue goes deeper down his esophagus. frederick is struggling with speech bubbles showing his various noises of struggle and gagging

same as previous, but now with an xray of the tongue down his esophagus

crop of the drawing where luchino holds frederick closer, no xray

crop of the drawing where luchino holds frederick closer, xray present

Just a skim through LinkedIn shows how many tech + game companies treated layoffs not just as a way to lower wages, but to swap out full-time employees for contractors

We have been saying for decades: Disney was never fucking "woke", no matter how many first gay cyclops cops, or 3 frames space lesbian characters they put in their animated movies. they couldn't wait to drop the mask. don't support Disney and that include: Marvel Studios, Lucasfilm and 20th C.S.

some more oc drafting...i really wanted him to be an aerial dragon but i had a hard time making wings for him that were on his arms. so instead i just added a second pair of arms to become his wings and added some other elements to help indicate chimerism #ocs #ocsky

my dragon/human oc that is light skinned with a dark purple color scheme; this ref has his wings halfway opened up. the wings look like a second pair of arms outside of the webbing

my dragon/human oc that is light skinned with a dark purple color scheme; this ref has no wings with the details of the scales on his back clearly visible

my dragon/human oc that is light skinned with a dark purple color scheme; this ref has his wings folded

Has your name ever appeared in the credits of a book, or is it likely to in the near future? Then you should join @authorsabb.bsky.social! Full transcript and jpg of this zine formatted for print available here: www.patreon.com/posts/i-want... #authorsagainstbookbans

cover of a zine titled Do you make books? Yes? I want YOU to join Authors Against Book Bans! By Maia Kobabe

WHAT IS AUTHORS AGAINST BOOK BANS?

A coalition of writers, illustrators, editors & other book creators, standing united against the unconstitutional movement to limit the freedom to read. We support the availability of diverse voices in our libraries, in our schools, & in our culture. We pledge to band together against the oppression of literature, to speak when our voices are silenced, to go where our bodies are needed, & to fight to ensure this freedom.

Our concern is not only for the books, but for the children, families, educators, librarians, & communities who suffer when the freedom to read is challenged and taken away.

WHAT CAN AUTHORS AGAINST BOOK BANS OFFER YOU?

- Regional groups working on legislation to protect authors & the freedom to read state-by-state

- Online trainings on digital security, public speaking, & how to counter book challenges in your community

-Affinity groups for BIPOC authors, queer authors, authors with disabilities, indie, nonfiction, romance writers & more

-Support if your book is challenged or your school visit is canceled!

-A very active discord community

Maia: I’ve been facing intense challenges to my book since 2021. Knowing that I am not alone in the fight against censorship is what keeps my spirits up!

Watching the folks in AABB share information, co-write legislation, show up to library & school board meetings, & speak up to publishers about the need to protect diverse books & minority authors has been amazing!

This is a weird & scary time to be an author, but you are not alone! Join thousands of us fighting for the freedom to read, the freedom to write, the freedom to teach, the freedom to learn, & the freedom to share our stories!

Just left my comment, and any WA state folks following me should, too. Remember: Gender affirming healthcare SAVES LIVES. Taking it away KILLS people. Ask them why our state legislature is so interested in killing your neighbors' children and loved ones.

When you read "anti-immigrant" I want you to hear "Going after anyone who isn't white" because THAT is what they mean, and that is who they are after.
