It's not that I don't care It's just that acting on the caring seems so beyond me most of the time Years slip by and I just watch them go in some strange sort of trauma fugue

Heat and sweat and skin to skin, a salty fire in the night Breath entangled, pulses tripping, stumbling, sinking through the gravity of craving and You of the trembling desire beneath wandering fingers Questing through the gasping dark for you You only, ever, You

I've seen some vocally anti-AI people recently make an anti-AI post and be surprised there are still pro-AI people following them, and I can explain this; most pro-AI people think they are somehow the exception. the way THEY are using it, SURELY you would take no issue! well, we do. so fuck off.

Hips are the altar of ache in the cradle of your making where yes unfurls to slow yeeesss beneath the teeth of my devotion in the pressure and the rhythm gasping, moving, drawing open, tight with wanting, in the vow of trembling worship carved from the silent surrender of skin and breath and bone

Breath is the mist on the mirror is the ghost of a wish too terrible for speaking in the tremble between parted thighs trailing knee calf ankle to your feet are the altar for lips tongue teeth upon the instep to my body in the bend of devotion in the deathly silence where stillness becomes belonging

Fingertips are the prelude to palms are the shelter of your wrists are the lattice to the pulse that flickers beneath skin like a whisper waiting to be heard under the shiver of breath mixing between us in the space where thought becomes feeling in the soft moan of my name dying on your perfect lips

KOSA is back. This is the internet censorship bill! And it's not just coming for SWers, it'll be coming for all LGBTQ content, because the people in charge view LGBTQ people as inherently pornagraphic! We must push back even harder than we did last time we killed this bill 🔥

WHY?
Visa, Mastercard, Stripe and Paypal have been censoring free speech and legal business on the internet for TOO LONG. Their most recent targets are Steam and Itch.io, but they have also been pressuring websites like Pixiv, Patreon, Fansly, Onlyfans and MORE for years, applying draconian standards for what kind of adult/pornographic content platiorms and their users can host and sell.

If we as consumers and creators want to regain ground on this issue, we have to make our voice heard.

HOW?
BOMBARD THEM WITH PHONE CALLS
Collective Shout, the organization that lobbied to have Steam and Itch.io change their TOS, did so with only around 1000 phone calls. Visa and MC have backed down from pressuring Onlyians to remove adult content entirely due to public backlash. Clogging their phone lines for an extended perlou, over a mont at the absolute least, will almost gudrantee that these compantes will at least have to pay attention to the backlash. this list is not exhaustive. but some contact points for the 4 targets are:

1. VISA:
(US + Can): +1 [8001-847-2911
US option selection for operator: 1-1-2 or 1-1-3

2. MASTERCARD:
(US): +1 (8001-307-7309
US option selection for operator: 1-1-2-2-2-1
Phone (outside US): 1-636-722-7111

3. STRIPE:
(Headquarters): +118881 963-8955
(France): +33 805-11-19-67
Stripe: complaints@stripe.com

4. PAYPAL:
(US): +1 (888)-221-1161
(outside US): 1-402-935-2050
Customer Service: +1 (877)-569-1116

TRY TO HIT ALL 4 TARGETS PER DAY

This is only going to have an effect if as many people possible call EVERY DAY for as long as possible.

THIS IS A MARATHON, NOT A RACE.

If you can, it is also a good idea to try to spread the word to organizations and groups that can either actively combat these huge companies legally, or can spread news, in a manner supportive of this movement, more effectively than your average person.

example of orgs:
ACLU
CCLA
govt representatives

exanple of spreading the news:
newspapers
special interest pubs
streamers

I'm all for having family-friendly #PRIDE events. My objection is to insisting that ALL of it has to be family-friendly. Not everything is for your 5yo, and it is unrealistic to demand that it be made so. Fucking hell.

Dramatic DM complication: Neighbors called bc they thought pt died given the stench coming from the wall. We had to put in neg pressure room and use vaporub and caprs to combat the stink. We trailed it everywhere despite PPE. It hung in the hall for hours. Idk how the neighbors didn't call sooner.1/

There are people reading this who, their entire lives, have been made to feel "difficult"-- when the reality is, they've been doing their best, improvising & trying to roll w/ complicated situations for years. Maybe you're not "difficult." Maybe your world has been "difficult."

Silence crushing close, throbbing, pressing, coarse against my skin. Your shadow is my haven, your blood soothing sustenance. Elbow deep in your belly, mouth caught upon heart, breath and soul expelled between hip and sternum. Here, here, here is where I belong. Here--consuming and consumed. By you.
