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.

MemberWait, what is the difference between movie and film? Aren't those just synonyms?

Member.
From what I read here, it seems to be old vs. new terminology.

MemberAs the goat might say, "If you don't know, you don't know"
Most people use the term "movie" and "film" interchangeably, and it largely works just fine.
However, there's this idea that equates the quality and artistry of a moving picture to the term associated with it.
The line "it's not a 'movie', it's a 'film' !" is primarily a nod to that debate, which is commonly held on the internet in spaces where people discuss motion pictures.
The following is the common hierarchy, from least-to-most artistically/culturally developed
- flick
- movie
- film
- cinema
- kino
A "flick" is probably something kinda trashy, maybe a slasher flick with ample depictions of boobs, or an exploitation film of sorts.
As you go down, the implied artistry and culture gets more and more refined, to where "kino" is something beyond just a great movie, but an outstanding statement.
As a result, calling something "movie" rather than the more artful "film" was insulting to the goat, who probably greatly appreciates the movie's director's previous work.
This of course is not explicitly mentioned in the comic itself, but as the creator I can confirm this is the goat's reasoning.
I hope this answered your question to some degree. Thanks for watching!

MemberAgreed, soup only ever wants to be tasty and delicious. Not a debauched substitute for sex. Stew, on the other hand...
There's easier ways to make soup saltier.

MemberCanonically, it is not presently known if the goat is male or female.
There's an interaction between two people, Palisade (male calico) and the goat (??? goat), instead of choosing male/male in the tags I went for male/intersex.
I might be wrong about this, I'm not too sure about the terminology. The goat is simply a goat.
