Merely not looking like you belong on the covers of an issue of Sports Illustrated is apparently comparable to these "advertisers" to being naked. They hate bodily diversity and they want as many people to feel as bad about their bodies as possible.

That's pathetic. Once again the label of "adult content" is used as a malicious cudgel with which those in power club anything that does not fit the conservative social norm, no matter if it's actually vulgar or not, which has the knock-on of making it harder to use sincerely in the future.

They want to hold your violations over you as a point of disadvantage whenever you negotiate with them, to create an atmosphere of compliance. If you have less power already, they can make you give up more in exchange for continued funding. Basically a reverse gang protection fee.

Yup. This is what "trans rights are human rights" means - it means if they can do this to anybody then nobody gets justice or peace.

The transparent corruption of supposed content standards as bludgeons against smaller communities (to enclose more commons) and lgbtq+ spaces (to make them unsafe) is sickening.

What genuinely pisses me off is that these same advertisers often post adult ads all the time. You have no idea how many times I've seen ads for AI "Roleplay" chatbots on YouTube, and it's always sexual! But oh, somebody HUGGING? TOO SEXUAL! CENSOR IT IMMEDIATELY!

Hugging being considered adult content is literal insanity. Like the most base level form of showing affection towards someone. What are we even doing here

When advertisers & payment processors say they prohibit "adult" content, that's coded for content they consider queer or non-conforming It's anything they fret might leave "an impression," anything that embraces diversity, anything that tells the heart it's okay if you're a little different

Alt text added:
What makes this situation frustrating is that the bar for what advertisers consider "adult content" is very very low. For example they consider plus size characters, two characters hugging, and "barbie doll nudity" to be adult content, despite these being normal everyday things that are not adult at all. This is why you may see other sites with restrictions on how characters can't be posed or dressed "too provocatively."
We receive a daily list of items that they have flagged as violations and have to sort through them. If they're legitimate violations, we re-rate them. If they aren't, we don't touch them.
Submissions that are not violations of our policies are still held against us.
We have had many email conversations, Zoom calls, and even an in-person meeting with representatives to help resolve this to no avail.

FurAffinity (a furry focused online art gallery) is looking for funding after refusing to comply with advertiser demands. And oh boy are some of those advertiser demands are pretty ridiculous.

this whole situation absolutely sucks. the puritan/puritanical movement to rid the internet of adult content needs to be called out and stood against at every turn. sex and sexuality are core human (ironic) values and the expression thereof is a human right.

Most people agree that the development of a video game is a creative act. But what I try to explore in my work is whether a game developer, through careful design, can engineer a situation where the *playing* of a video game is a creative act.

recently my friend's comics professor told her that it's acceptable to use gen Al for script-writing but not for art, since a machine can't generate meaningful artistic work. meanwhile, my sister's screenwriting professor said that they can use gen Al for concept art and visualization, but that it won't be able to generate a script that's any good. and at my job, it seems like each department says that Al can be useful in every field except the one that they know best.

It's only ever the jobs we're unfamiliar with that we assume can be replaced with automation. The more attuned we are with certain processes, crafts, and occupations, the more we realize that gen Al will never be able to provide a suitable replacement. The case for its existence lies on our ignorance of the work and skill required to do everything we don't.

My funniest ventriloquism story starts with the fact that I was obsessed with ventriloquism from a young age. I used to obsessively practice speaking without moving my lips, practicing the different tongue and air tricks and everything.

Then I got sick with Bell's Palsy, and it hit both sides of my face at the same time. Bell's Palsy is like a headcold that hits your facial nerves. Anyway- This meant my entire face was paralyzed. I couldn't speak using my lips. The doctor stared at me, dumbfounded that was able to speak very fluently without my face moving at all.

I was at a 12-hour orgy yesterday and halfway through someone decided they wanted to put a hockey game up on the projector. you're the only reason I know anything about hockey. I don't even know who was playing but they were blue and red and there was a guy named Gotstobehere. half the group immediately stopped orgy-ing in favor of hockey. this took up about? Three hours of time? tits were flashed when a team scored a goal. People stopped fucking when fights broke out cause it was more interesting.

I'm not sure why I'm telling you. I feel like SOMEONE in the hockey community needs to know about the game that derailed an orgy.

Once i had a teacher who was OBSESSED with

A) resource guarding

And

B) Harry Potter

So naturally, every time someone didn't have a pencil she would charge them 10 house points (which, even in schools where there is an actual house point system, probably doesn't fucking happen). She openly held the belief that she had to ascribe value to these precious writing implements or else no one would appreciate them, a concept evidenced by, i kid you not, how when homeless people are given houses for free they let them fall into disarray, because they didn't pay for the house and therefore didn't care about it. I, a pissed off 13 year old with a vendetta against power hungry teachers and also JK Rowling, brought a 100 pack of pencils to school so that whenever someone had to ask for one, instead of being charged a fictional currency and upsetting their fellow, deeply competitive students, i would just give them one. If the pencil didn't come from the teacher, she couldn't charge points for it.

This upset her. She couldn't assert her power over the ist period Advanced 8th Grade Math Class anymore. For i, The Pencil Liberator, had come to put an end to her tyrannous behavior.


She told me to stop about 30 pencils in.
