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!

MemberThe pic is Mindes with his tail freshly cut off. The text says "Learned this lil maggots been dating shinies exclusively. We aren't some exotic pet for you to own. Protest this site and stop the fetishization of shiny pokemon. [url removed]"
To me it looks like one of Mindes's ex found out about the site and got angry enough to dock his tail, then try to report the site. (but didn't work, the url was removed and Mindes is still actively targeting shinies)

Memberwhen i found out that was blood (not the other thing i was thinking) i instantly began to panic. If a god damn porn comic can do something like that, you are doing something right.
