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.

We still have a Discord server, come talk to us!

MemberI prefer Patrick over Puzzle for some reason. Puzzle is ditzy and cute but there's something about Pat I can't quite put my finger on.
That being said. G'Morning, Patrick.

MemberWow that's actually pretty fucking funny/awesome. Would make sense seeing as she's in most of their pics. Was there a reason why Kadath did it?

MemberI seem to recall reading somewhere that Patrick & Puzzle were born in London but their parents divorced when they were young. Patrick went to America with his Dad & Puzzle went to India with her Mom. It wasn't until recently that Pat & Puz reunited in London. I can't help but wonder if Patrick got picked on or made fun of in PE class for being uncut when he was growing up since being circumcised is the norm in America & being uncut is sometimes considered weird. Teenage boys can be pretty mean to each other sometimes too.
