So, hey. Following me is a privilege. I choose not to block you based on my belief that your following me will respect my consent and otherwise not be a net negative in my life.

If I know that you are feeding my work directly slop vendors trying to scab labor rights and destroy art, I will block you.

So yes, I am blocking Laurie. I don't normally announce that kind of thing, but this is an exceptional enough case that I want to be clear about why.

And look, I get it. Blocking won't prevent slop vendors from bypassing blocks or otherwise scrape my feed. But *fuck* if I'm going to make it easier for you to undermine my artistic work.

@xgranade sadly, doing the same. looking at that mutual-following list on the way to the block is a really sad reminder that this is ripping the community apart

@emma @xgranade (I am also blocking the entire instance, as it appears to be a very slop-positive community.)
