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!

MemberHe can't be Russian. His name isn't Nikolai.

MemberThe ideology lives on... unfortunately. Besides, what other visually identifiable mark could they give him that would clearly show that he's Russian besides the good ol' commie hammer and sickle?
CapnYuri
MemberThe raccoon's names Iouri ? Fine by me, that's my name
Thaine
MemberShhhhh....Furry Logic is trying to work...

MemberWhy would he even need a physical indicator that he's Russian. Why not the flag of fucking Russia if he's gonna go for national symbols. Why would some neo-soviet revolutionary wanna be fucking some capitalist cowboy horse scum anyways

Memberyou sir really fail at being funny that is more racist tht i care to imagine i cant even speak of how racist tht was look at his name it is russian

MemberChill your social justits. I was just making a crack at the fact that 90% of Slavic names made up for characters in media is Nikolai. Believe it or not, throwing words like 'Racist' at everything you perceive actually trivializes REAL racism.

MemberThe mother is a Raccoon, and because "Iouri Podladchikov" is a real person I changed the name it was Sasha for a bit until I found something more fitting Vsevolod "Volo" Konstantinovich Tsygankov and I had not idea that this image would spark such controversy I commissioned it because the idea of opposites colliding is attractive, it's not about who's better than who.

MemberThis looks a lot like someone else only with a hammer & sickle tacked on
