News: Feb 26, 2025 Show

Feb 26th:A new bill in Arizona is making its way through the Senate that would force sites like e621 to implement mandatory age verification for all users—or face potential lawsuits. This system would require third-party vendors to verify every user’s age through a government database. Not only is this a massive violation of privacy, but it also introduces serious risks, including identity theft through phishing schemes and other malicious methods. Worse still, we would have no control over ensuring that user data is permanently deleted after verification.

Since e621 operates out of Arizona, this law would almost certainly impact us if it passes. If you want to help ensure that we can continue serving you without being forced to collect personal information, we urge you to contact Arizona’s senators and ask them to vote NO on this bill.

Please help spread the word about this issue and encourage others to take action.

  • Absolutely no idea what Umbreon is saying in the 3rd panel. I think something about telling Jolteon not to use electricity, but it's so hard to translate that it could equally be a joke about "riding the lighting." She doesn't seem amused.

    Interesting. I assume it's probably a joke or jab, since his dialogue after getting shocked wasn't along the lines of "I told you not to" or similar.

    かみなりのキバ = the move Thunder Fang; you could break the sentence apart into two sections: "かみなりのキバとか使われないか," "the question of whether or not she'll use Thunder Fang (or some other move) on me,"

    and

    "ヒヤヒヤしてるぜ," "I'm worried about."

    Of course! I read it as "lightning tusk" and didn't realize it could be a move. I had no idea what else it could be, so I looked up キバ and found 騎馬 which means "horse riding" ... which still made more sense than anything else I could think of.

    Added the translation for that panel, thanks for the help!
