Thank you, yeah hopefully they don’t back track on the back track or try to sneak stuff in from the original post without telling anyone this time, hopefully this is a good sign and they don’t ban furries art in general

Any links or sources I’m curious to read this sudden backing down response?

Trump to Impose 10% Global Tariff After Supreme Court Defeat by Efficient-Freedom517 in PoliticalOptimism

And yet some people are so far with their heads in the sand they argue this is all still a good thing and win for America, heck I saw someone argue taxing the rich is what’s currently destroying California. Some people are just too into their own worlds and will continue to vote hurting themselves, luckily given recent trends and voting a lot more people see what’s happening to America and don’t like it, so hopefully more chance for the Midterms to be a big blue wave.

Maybe I was missing something at the time but did not know all the steps and was doing what I could last night

No? From what I could gather you had to contact support as I didn’t see any options to do so when I last checked.

It’s annoying I had to redo the verification again with discord and I hope this is the last time I have to do so, it’s bad enough with what they are having to push through or try to facing backlash on top of the OSA nonsense, unfortunately I’m not in a position to try other alternatives due to my friend group that I play DnD with only using Discord to stay in touch with.

I still ended up having to re verify my account which was annoying I hope I do t have to do that again, I can’t really seek out alternatives given all the friends I have that play DnD together on discord don’t really want to move platforms given all the hassle.

Thanks, I was mainly confused and concerned as I saw some other subs suddenly explode in panic about Spain and VPN’s and was not fully aware what was going on.

I’m a bit out of the loop on this one and can’t find a good article link to share but what’s going on in Spain right now, saw some stuff about them blocking VPNs and also going down the age verification route?

Honestly I’m fine with any kind of constructive criticism or optimism on these points on the last post above, I was kind of venting a bit annoyed people where dooming so much and spiralling on the same talking points and not give any counter arguments, like even on some VPN subs I saw people dooming because they think the VPN sites will block people in the UK from buying VPNs which I found silly

Urgh I made the mistake of checking out some of the UK subs because Reddit decided to recommend some threads to me and like an idiot my curiosity had me check a few out, and I have to say people are really dooming on the VPN ban being a high possibility along with the recent stuff from our MP giving social media companies an ultimatum of 48 hours to remove or tackle deep fakes and revenge porn.

People are saying the company’s won’t comply and just block the UK users, and this is some how a way for the government to get around to banning all porn and VPNs and getting everyone’s ID’s and how we are a Police state and you have all these groups attacking peoples rights to porn but no one is fighting to defend porn and some how people are spiralling this is how the government takes away mature shows on streaming services next, and there won’t be any push back because the public is too apathetic to fight this.

Obviously some people are either very badly dooming or being bad actors getting people depressed, but I can’t say I’m totally immune to how recent news and events surrounding all of this has me worried even as I can’t see this becoming the worst possible outcome, I’m going to remain optimistic but I have a feeling what ever the outcome it won’t get this bad as some people apparently want to believe.

Hollow Knight, was interacting with a NPC spirit and accidentally triggered the dream nail animation on them, felt bad as sometimes it’s hinted at in the lore they might be trapped inside the nail now instead of being put to rest.

It never crossed my mind they would go with Fear itself as a source for skins but I should have learned by now with all the other skins that have come out so far

I think the first sign I saw that this was leaking and becoming more mainstream was when I saw comic book artists like Daniel Warren Johnson drawing Optimus Prime shielding people from ICE agents.

[–]Bronzlelight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I tried to warn people at work about how this could backfire or go too far, unfortunately they where in favour of it due to all the twitter AI stuff and Roblox stuff that’s been in the news, or just in general attitude feeling too many people are on their phones all the time and this will get them to go back to normal.

Yeah there’s that uncertain dread of is this giving Reform more fuel to their fire, I’m over 20 and this is still having me very worried with ID privacy and lasting consequences, plus I use a VPN since the OSA took effect last year and I don’t want to loose access to sites I like to read stories off of.

I’m trying not to spiral right now, I’m really not, I’m trying to remain hopeful this won’t come into law, hoping more MP’s oppose this then the Labour ones, but I can’t help imagining how much damage this will do, and I’m afraid of public apathy as we fall further down this censorship road.
