April 10th: The bill has been vetoed!
April 2nd: The politicians in Arizona are about to sign into law a bill that would mandate sites like e621 to either impose age verification on all users or be at a risk of lawsuits. Such system would be required to go through third party vendors, who in turn must go through a government database to verify every user's age. This is not only a major violation of privacy, but it also opens up a very real danger of identity theft through phishing schemes and other methods, not to mention that we would not be able to control any of that information to make sure it is permanently deleted after age verification is complete.
Unfortunately, Arizona is the state out of which e621 operates, which means that this law will almost certainly affect us if it is to pass. If want to help us ensure that this site can continue to serve you without being required to know who you are, please ask the Arizona governor to veto this bill.
Please, help us get the word out by letting others know about this issue.
For some further information on what the bill does have a look at https://action.freespeechcoalition.com/bill/arizona-hb-2586/
We still have a Discord server, come talk to us!

MemberWell... sure took the internet a long time. Considering it took at least 15 years for this to happen. These were some of my favorite books and I must say:
Indeed.

MemberBerenstein Bears was always a great series. Considering that I'm "old", it was a bit awkward for me to have read those books at the age I was, but nobody complained. I remember seeing one kid buried in a bunch of books, turns out that kid was my friend little J-Money.
The junkfood book of Berenstein Bears always made me feel hungry.

MemberMan, I'm disappointed in you people. Not one mention of the Mandela Effect?
I guess y'all must be happy about living in this weird alternate timeline where it's spelled BerenstAin instead of BerenstEin...

MemberIt’s very weird because I have memories of my elementary school teacher telling the class the proper way to spell Berenstein because too many kids were getting lazy and spelling it as berenstain

MemberMan, I'm disappointed in you. Not one mention of the false consensus effect?
I guess you must be happy about living in this weird alternate timeline where we give a fuck instead of minding your own goddammed business...

MemberYou know something? This parody is actually consistent with the moral of the original title.
And taking into account that bears are known to be highly gluttonous creatures, I will say that this book, parodied or not, is a subversive contradiction of that nature which human beings can learn a lot from.
