The digital illustration shows a woman with dark long hair, gathered in a messy bun, she is wearing a dark blue dress, in her left hand she is holding an axe. Behind the woman is a stone staircase, which she is climbing. In the upper right corner are large windows, behind the woman's head is a large portrait of a couple, in the upper left corner are stairs leading up

I think a lot of people underestimate how forgiving Kickstarter backers can be, as long as you keep them in the loop. Being late doesn't sink you. Most Kickstarters (yes, most, as in literally THE MAJORITY) blow their deadlines. What sinks you is silence.

If you're a writer worried about people using gen AI to write, maybe don't use AI. Don't use it for art, covers, or some garbage app you blindly hope works. 🙄 If you do, you're just an entitled prick who deserves zero respect. AI sucks, and you suck for using it.

The adult industry needs to realize that trans and non-binary creators are disproportionately hurt by the War on Porn: 74% more likely to be attacked online 53% more likely to face content restrictions 41% less likely to have fans unwilling to AV Pride means committing to actual, systemic support.

"LGB-no-T" campaigner Julie Bindel says she'd BAN pride if she could, in order to protect children from predatory gay men. Absolutely fucking appalling. A whole column — "A Pride of Perverts" — going on like this. TERFing really cooks the brain.
I feel afraid for vulnerable teenagers who, questioning or exploring their sexuality for the first time, go along to a Pride march in the hope of meeting like-minded young people. The parades are now hunting grounds for predatory men, who can dismiss as
'homophobia' any attempt to rein in their behaviour.
If I could ban Pride, I would, to protect young people - especially women, but also teenage boys who are very much in danger of being sexually abused and exploited by much older men.
Women like me are sick of being lumped in with trans-identified people, with kinksters, with those that just call themselves 'asexual', 'non-binary', 'sapiosexual' or
'aromantic' - people who are never going to face oppression or discrimination for their sexuality. The Pride movement is redundant.

Pornography is not the threat. A culture of repression and shame that demands conformity and demonizes sexual expression is the real threat to our security. We deal with the consequences of the that threat, every day.

Many of us are livid about Kickstarter's new "mature content" rules. Over the past day, I have looked at a decade of data to see who may be harmed. Comic artists. Gender minorities. Disabled, deaf, blind, queer, and chronically ill users. Sex workers. International creators. A data-driven look:

But there is a new platform in the works that will likely have higher processing fees because they move away from Stripe, but frankly, that is still worth it.

The older I get the more I realize that nostalgia is a poison. Your anime is not better just because it was processed and filtered for your consumption three decades ago. You were just younger. You don't have to like anything, but to pretend that yours is the 'definitive' version is bullshit.

Some of you have forgotten that only three years ago you were perfectly capable of writing a text, writing an email, telling a bedtime story to a child, and it should worry you that powerful companies have convinced us we can't do things we've been doing since the dawn of time.

Big Tech is offering you a Faustian bargain. It promises to remove all the friction from life, to keep you from having to think or study, and the result is your brain will become pudding, you'll become incapable of creativity or communication. They want to make you a non-person.
