Hi all! I'm trying to collect examples of romance and/or romance-adjacent games, book projects, comics, etc. that would have be affected by the Kickstarter, Patreon, Itch.io, or Steam adult content bans. Does anyone know any specific creators or projects which were at risk or were directly affected?

"New College—the focal point of the Florida GOP’s pedagogical interventions—has failed to establish a 'classical' core curriculum of any kind, save a 6-week course on the Odyssey that requires no essay writing. It's mostly accomplished a variety of construction projects" harpers.org/archive/2026...

I’m tired of the dishonesty of this entire debate. The folks calling for “perspectives different from their own“ are shutting down Women’s and African American studies because they hate differing opinions. Marginalized folks had a small foothold, and powerful people decided to push them out.

"Killing student writing outside the classroom means an enormous reduction in the volume of time spent writing, and learning more generally: it is a loss of thousands of hours of reading, thinking, puzzling over problems, writing, revising."

I have wondered whether this is related to the fact that people feel very helpless about what they see in the world—they feel ineffectual. And I wonder whether sometimes people just pick a target they think will actually be forced to react to them. Something to affect, to prove you exist.

I saw a something recently that said members of fandoms no longer exist as fans but believe they are stakeholders. They believe that their opinions and feelings have weight and influence. So they engage performances like they’re directing or a part of the production. It’s wild.

We have this one a little twisted. Totally reasonable. But, folks have been pushing for this category for several years. Believe it or not, the idea is that traditional country would favor more women, people of color who are often pushed out of country and into Americana/folk country.
