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.

Description

Brad the Bear Commission by Stoopix

A new year means changes and new things, which is a perfect time for me to introduce a (relatively) new character of mine.

This big fellow here is Bradley Patricks, a character that I've had on paper for quite some time. The short version of things is that he's a bear that was born and raised in a nudist community that his mother managed. Later on, he enrolled and studied at MIT, where he graduated with a degree in computer engineering.

Although my tigon fellow, Robert, will remain one of my primary essential characters, Brad is a special one to me because I designed him in a such a way that I could personally relate to him.

Last, but not least, major thanks to the artist behind this, Stoopix. He did an absolutely stellar job with this and was an utter pleasure to work with, always keeping me up to speed and checking in as he was working on it. Please, give him your faves, comments, and business, given the chance! Once he uploads it himself, I'll throw up the link to his upload.
