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.

MemberRecipe for rollcake
Preheat the oven to 200 °C.
1. Beat eggs and sugar to a stiff egg mixture.
2. Sift the flour and baking powder together and carefully fold it into the egg mixture. Spread the batter onto a long pan lined with baking paper. Bake the cake in the middle of the oven for 8-10 minutes.
Place a couple of small blobs of butter under the baking paper in the long pan so that it will be easier to spread the batter over the paper.
3. Sprinkle sugar over the cake and cover the cake with baking paper. Place a cake rack on top and turn everything upside down. Remove the baking paper that was used during baking and let the cake slide down from the wire rack. Leave the pan over the cake until it has cooled. Then the cake stays soft and is easier to roll.
4. Spread a thin layer of jam and roll the cake together, preferably with the help of baking paper. Wrap the cake a little tightly in the paper and put it in the fridge with the seam down.
If you're particularly short on time, do this: Spread the jam on as soon as the rolled cake is domed, and roll the cake together. This must be done quickly to avoid that the rolled cake becomes brittle along the edge and "breaks" during rolling.
