what a cool article and website

authors do get money from libraries that buy the books. and in some places they even get money depending on how much its checked out.

Clicked on it and the first thing I saw is "women's bodies were meant for the male gaze"

I'm not a fan of lemmygrad at all but yeah thats wild lol

yeah! You're right 😭🙂! and I'm so happy to see it.

donations are important too! id like to donate more when I can eventually when I am more stable (in the most general term). one day

yeah thats what I plan on doing! I hope you're right and I'm just being paranoid. thankfully a lot of other instances are defederating from threads too... hopefully it'll be enough at least to keep a small part of the community safe

optimistically, the fact that zuck is even trying to take over the fediverse means he sees it as a threat. we've been already doing well enough without their "help" and it scares him

yeah but threads has advertising and corporate money backing it up checkmate library

for real though my greatest fear is that threads devouring the fediverse regardless of how much of a dumpster fire it is

oddly enough I prefer the new ui over to the old ui. Feels snappier

(Probably because I'm on mobile though?)

man its real interesting to see vintage stuff like this

I subbed to that subreddit specifically to see people whine before lol. I'd say it feels astroterfed but that would be giving them too much credit

Yep! Its technically reopening and it makes the spez simps mad. Honestly reddit deserves the worst.

I know that this probably won't work as stubbornly idiotic as Huffman seems to be doubling down but god isn't that amazing.

What's fascinating is the sudden increase of people whining about this. If this kind of stuff bothers them imagine how bad it is when these moderators leave completely? I know a subreddit based on interesting things have completely lowered their standards as a protest and it shows.

ahaha yeah it's unfortunate that people on twitter and tumblr and tiktok just lose their minds when it comes to kink in media. really, get me out of here. Murder violence and gore in stories is perfectly healthy and people won't immediately go and kill people but if you show a couple with an age gap its all of a sudden a moral imperative to stop any depiction immediately.

i do feel like the joker sometimes
