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!

MemberI actually have grown to like this version more since it seems to be less "for the sake of just porn" in a way. It shows how they helped his one ptsd sort of problem, and even shows an insect infestation lol
Aka, this versions more story driven and I like that

MemberWell, unless you count the whole rapey sex-ring thing the other story has as a better story lol

Memberdid you even see the new page? that plot litteraly kills everything! The "real" story is way better with the new pages.

Member...I’ve got a theory. I think these alternate pages are the story as Mindes being the abused, but the main pages are the story as Mindes being the abuser. Dunno if this’ll hold up, but I just wanna put it out there and see if I’m right as time goes on.

MemberOr this could be an alternate route where Mindes feels guilty for what he’s done. Mindes in an earlier page mentions “this isn’t how it’s supposed to go” which may suggest that Ambus is acting differently than the past shinies have by actually giving back to Mindes instead of taking all the time.
Idk, just some ideas running through my head.
