100% Free Range Ronin

Shiro. 32. Probably too old for Tumblr. Hakuouki main. I've been in lots of other fandoms, so just ask if you think you know me.

Why Tumblr Has Rolled Out ID Verification

UK legislation: Online Safety Act 2023

Brazil legislation: Digital Statute For Children And Adolescents

Apple App Store Age Verification

These are not tumblr specific policies. Tumblr is implementing age verification in response to legislative moves that were made months ago.

Tumblr is a failing social media site that has escaped death multiple times already; they do not have the social cachet to defy state regulatory agencies. We know they won't say no to Apple, either--the porn ban on tumblr was in response to Apple's crackdown on explicit content.

If you did not know this was happening, you were behind the curve. That is fine. You're caught up now. The next step is to link up with people in your country who are working to preserve privacy, to roll back these laws where they exist, and to prevent their passage where they do not. In the US the organization you want is Stop KOSA--in the EU you can start with Fight Chat Control.

Repealing ID verification and blocking chat control will help everyone, especially the most vulnerable. We can push this back, but we cannot get it done through the Feedback form. We have to get it done at the legislative level and lock it down so it cannot be forced upon us. I see lots of anger out there. Good. Put it to use.

Folks if you go to the Stop Kosa website there's a *super quick* form that will figure out your legislators and auto send them an email from you. (There's a script, you don't have to figure out what to write.)

They'll also give ypu a phone number and a script if you're up to make a call.

there’s a used bookstore in rural western massachusetts (the montague book mill) whose motto is “books you don’t need in a place you can’t find” and i just feel like that summarizes tumblr too

Being a bisexual emperor must be the most stressful shit in the world. You go to the inner palace and all your wives are scheming. You go to the outer court and all the male concubines that you promoted to viziers through nepotism are fighting. Your wife just poisoned your favorite twink eunuch. There’s no peace

Smart parent.

"Are we sad for this kid because her parents won’t let her us AI or because she used AI in the first place to help her navigate very normal kid problems that it is developmentally important for kids to figure out? Because “9 year olds should not be talking to chat bots” generally seems like a good principle?"

22.04 - Happy HijiChi day! 🌸👹

You know how you will often find people drawing reports after attending live events with some of their favourite or most memorable scenes? I tried to do so after watching Live 4, except it took me 4 months to draw these (part 2 is coming eventually).

As a Hijikata fan, and a Chizuru fan, and a HijiChi fan, I don't think I could've wished for a better duo than Kubota and Ruri to portray them. They have so much chemistry that everything they do on stage feels very natural. I laughed a lot with their shenanigans... and even though I didn't see Sen's Counselling room live (I didn't get to see it until after coming back from the final)-- What do you mean girl's dream is that she wants to hold hands with her man?

Spoiler content under the read more:

Cheers during "Sake on a moonlit night". Ruri and Kubota were often hanging out, dancing together, playing together-- referencing back to the game corner that happened just before. Souji never held back on teasing him either, often rubbing it in when he lost again.

Dancing during "Sake on a moonlit night". Sano would start and Chizuru would join in, before one of the ensemble members would start showing off some dancing moves on his own. Hijikata would then - forced by Souji - after some initial protest, copy those moves. His Chizuru then joined in with much more gusto. The first show Souji threw this look like he didn't believe what he was seeing with his own two eyes.

Sen's Counselling room (28/12, noon show). Every show, one of the characters would come to see Sen and talk about something that worried them. Ruri said her Hijikata's always really cool, but with this job he's always being a little distant. So she'd really like to hold hands with him. Sen then told her she should just ask him directly. Kubota had already forgotten they'd agreed earlier that he'd come on stage, and was already prepped for the song after (Muscle Alliance). Ruri got all flustered seeing him like that. The combination between his deadpan reaction and her unable to contain her hype (she got to hold hands!) worked really well.

Sen's Counselling room. After having fulfilled her wish of holding hands with him, they (Ruri) skipped off to go have tea at this new tea shop she wanted to visit. Holding hands, of course.

I added the last two because the shot's in the digest video they posted.
