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!

MemberIt took me a second to get this.
These are the characters from TABEKKO DOUBUTSU, a classic Japanese animal cracker. Every character have a plush, because in Japan everything is a mascot.
The artist have a picture of them having sex.
The kana is はめっ子どうぶつ
はめる means a snuggly fit - like a glove, 子 is kanji for child, and どうぶつ just means animal.. So the words are "tight fitting child animals".
Or.. it can mean Horny Animals, considering there is a H doujinshi with the same name.

MemberThat's a very deep reference there but it's not unusual to Marimo have these random hentai fanarts, at least he is less insane than Mitsui Jun that even the translators sometimes just give up.
Good thing this isn't on Twitter because I could see this giving him trouble like when he did some Shimajiro arts...
Thanks for cracking this one dude.

Member.... actually there is an old doujinshi called はめのこどうぶつ back in 2003 with it being translated as Horny animals
