Authoritarians and tech CEOs now share the same goal: to keep us locked in an eternal doomscroll instead of organizing against them, Janus R
Going through and sunsetting my accounts, may end up keeping this one online since it's the closest thing to an actual archive of my time online as Rev Hale.
Tumblr is owned by a billionaire with an authoritarian ego, but at least it's not the one actively dismantling democracy?
I've been posting less and less as Hale. The climate around NSFW communities has rotted so deeply. Too much of my immoral fantasy has been turned into real weaponized regressive policy.
I wish I could share the specifics as to why I'm shutting shit down now, but for personal safety reasons, maintaining a horny alt is a very very bad idea.
Pursuing public legal action against this administration is unfortunately very risky. I've taken great effort to firewall this account against the rest of my professional and "IRL" identity, but I'm likely going to have active efforts to discredit me and people I love over the next year.
I stand behind mine and everyone's right to be stupid horny online... but I'm making the decision to forgoe this to fight for the legal existence and safety of those I love.
If you're actually reading this, thank you for tolerating my soapbox posting. If we've chatted over the years, I'm sorry I can't take the time to properly say goodbye to everyone.
Stay safe. Protect yourself. Stand up and fight for the right to be horny, queer, kinky or just weird. I highly recommend following the Electronic Frontier Foundation and American Civil Liberties Union.
See everyone on the other side, and hope someday in the future I can resume this kind of creation without fear of it being weaponized against my loved ones.
