Didn't want to jump the gun and share what was going around last night because I along with several others saw too many inconsistencies on the "Prohibited Content" page to actually believe it, and we were collectively correct...

...for the moment. Mind you, the terms are certainly generally horrendous and limiting currently for other reasons; there might be...one creator I follow on SSA that *might* be in complete compliance. Haven't compared historical versions of the page yet, but no real matter. It is was it is now, and I'm under no illusion that this is the last word. Payment processors and conservative pearl-clutchers have been doing whatever they've wanted for years now, and I've only *now* seen a real initiative looking to curb discrimination based on legal consumption of media. Who knows where that will go.

If things at SSA *do* jump forward to the "uncouth zoophile knee" (concept credit masklayer at slime[dot]global) point sometime in the future...I'm old enough to have seen this before for what it is. A long time ago, there was an image site that was frequented by both anime and furry artists. Some furry artists love posting there for their own reasons. Then, one day out of the blue after banning feral art, they dropped an absurd rule relating to anthros being unacceptable unless their fucking *eyebrows* were a certain way.

I don't think there's a term for this. They *technically* didn't ban furries despite that obviously being their intention, so they can technically save face by labeling pushback as exaggeration and overreaction. What SSA would purportedly do is the same thing. This tactic baits out a *lot* of malicious compliance and parody...rightfully so and you love to see it, but it points the company right at those they seek to silence and crush.

Related...only a bit sad this shit didn't marinate for a little longer, because I wanted to see where furry artists would take "uncouth zoophile knees."

But anyway...

I won't directly link posts from other social sites, but there was one I came across from a popular furry porn artist that I'd consider quite vanilla in terms of kinks offering full-throated support of free artistic expression and smacking back against the "exceptioners". More of this, please. Reaching an audience that needs to get it through their skulls that total control and blanket bans are the only thing our puritan opposition will actually accept.

If you ever run into anyone saying they're happy they banned (both directly and indirectly) victimless fictional content, normalize responding with a single 3.5 word phrase until they actually understand:

"You're next, freak."

"For those wondering why we don't have a SubscribeStar Adult account:
it's because Subscribe Star are terrible at their jobs, but excellent at lying"

それはSubscribeStarが仕事はひどく下手なのに、嘘をつくのは非常に上手だからです。"

With all the kerfuffle around Apple's 30% fee now applying to Patreon support for anyone who subscribes via the iOS app, it feels like a good time to remind y'all that alternatives exist.

For one, you could just go to the website, rather than using the mobile app. The fee only applies if you're going through Apple's payment system, which is mandatory for apps but completely optional for websites. Support creators directly and the fees are lower for everyone.

The alternative, if this is the change that finally makes you want to leave Patreon, would be to set up somewhere else. SubscribeStar and SubscribeStar Adult don't seem to be changing how fees work. The adult site is also very lenient when it comes to porn, which may be useful for a lot of furry creators. It may be worth considering as part of a broader exit or diversification strategy.

I still haven't had the CubHub profile approved on Subscribe Star and it's been a month and a half. ​ Might be time to nag support about it. How long did it take everyone else?
