defending art's right to exist, especially nsfw art, inherenetly involves you having to allow art you don't like or even think is abhorrent or reprehensible to exist. you do not have to pretend to like it or engage with it, but you need to let it exist. you give fascists an inch they take a mile.

"How to make ACTUAL interesting OCs" "How to make OCs people will care about!" dog if you can't love your own creations that's where you need to start, don't make brand new beings for other's approval. You'll never truly love them if they're tied to a stranger's perception.

I think few things feel as validating to artists as having another artist draw your OCs. It's like.... "Oh! You can see them too! Good. It's not just me."

In the light of recent developments, I wanna say that I'm 100% anti-censorship and pro "create and enjoy whatever fiction you want". It's one thing not wanting to consume dark fiction yourself and not wanting it to exist at all. Your personal discomfort doesn't mean it should be banned or illegal.

‼ Fight Chat Control - protect EU digital privacy! ‼ The EU may soon mandate scanning private messages and photos, possibly by October. PLEASE, contact your MEPs now - the site has their details (for all EU countries!) and even a message generator to make it easy! fightchatcontrol.eu

Screenshot of https://fightchatcontrol.eu/

The EU (still) wants to scan your private messages and photos

The "Chat Control" proposal would mandate scanning of all private digital communications, including encrypted messages and photos. This threatens fundamental privacy rights and digital security for all EU citizens.

Currently: 3 member states opposing, 15 member states, 9 member states undecided

You Will Be Impacted

Every photo, every message, every file you send will be automatically scanned—without your consent or suspicion. This is not about catching criminals. It is mass surveillance imposed on all 450 million citizens of the European Union.

Mass Surveillance - Every private message, photo, and file scanned automatically: no suspicion required, no exceptions*, even encrypted communications.

Breaking Encryption - Weakening or breaking end-to-end encryption exposes everyone's communications—including sensitive financial, medical, and private data—to hackers, criminals, and hostile actors.

Fundamental Rights - Undermines your fundamental rights to privacy and data protection, as guaranteed by Articles 7 and 8 of the EU Charter—rights considered core to European democratic values.

False Positives - Automated scanners routinely misidentify innocent content, such as vacation photos or private jokes, as illegal, putting ordinary people at risk of false accusations and damaging investigations.

Ineffective Child Protection - Child protection experts and organisations, including the UN, warn that mass surveillance fails to prevent abuse and actually makes children less safe—by weakening security for everyone and diverting resources from proven protective measures.

Global Precedent - Creates a dangerous global precedent enabling authoritarian governments, citing EU policy, to roll out intrusive surveillance at home, undermining privacy and free expression worldwide.

It’s sad that the discussion around pornography is always framed as “it’s potentially harmful.” It’s also potentially healthy? What did you learn about yourself, your body, your gender, your preferences, your boundaries and your self expression through the smut you consume?
