I won’t forgive anyone who sees this post and ignores me.
Pause for just 5 seconds.
Help my family with even $10 to provide food.
If you can’t donate, leave a dot it speaks louder than silence.
Dont let news like this discourage you.
Sony is banking on people feeling powerless in this situation (thats why these news stories are getting published while they stay silent)
Just as quickly as they flipped the switch away from physical, they can switch it back towards physical (also this is only 1 of their factories)
Hold the line, keep applying pressure.
Sony needs YOU more than you need THEM.
Even if Physical purchases are only 20% of the pie - thats a large enough slice to move the needle.
For anyone upset about Sony’s move to end physical media,
I’d suggest heavily supporting Stop Killing Games
This initiative is literally fighting to protect exactly what these companies want to destroy. It aims to force publishers to ensure you can always access and play the games you paid for—even after they stop supporting them
It really pisses me off how all this legislation is trying to use "protect the kids " as a scapegoat but when the kids exercise free speech, suddenly it's a problem. The blatant hypocrisy is disgusting.
If your gig flyer is AI, I won’t go.
If your book cover is AI, I won’t read it.
If your song is AI, I won’t listen.
If your ad is AI, I won’t buy.
If your profile picture is AI,
We can't be friends.
Lmao. Democrats first “Project 2029” policy proposal is to implement mass surveillance, Digital IDs, and internet censorship all under the guise of “protecting your children.”
even if you don't believe in prison abolition, the question must be asked, what purpose do they serve? if it is to rehabilitate, they've proven remarkably bad at their jobs. if it is to punish, they still do a pretty lousy job at that.
🚨Might be a waste of time posting this, but I'mma do it anyway. Long post incoming.
The internet is our Library of Alexandria.
The internet as we've been using it up to this point has been relatively free to use in terms of what you could do, with very few limitations.
Instant communication around the world, being able to speak with other languages in a back and forth dialogue, content making and sharing, shopping, gaming, information gathering and sharing, a place to learn and so on.
You have the freedom and ability to speak your mind on something and a chance for that something to be seen and heard INSTANTLY.
Should the powers that be decide to change the rules, things as we have now will never be the same.
The list:
-Speaking to someone outside of your country without proper clearance, like a digital passport. Something you will likely have to pay for, should it ever happen.
-Slowed communications. No longer instant for whatever arbitrary reason they decide to give.
-Country gates. You may not even be allowed to visit certain websites outside your country's jurisdiction, without said digital passport.
-Paying for time spent on foreign websites, like long distance calls used to cost money.
-Content making and gathering. If you make something that they deem unsafe, even if it's not, you are subject to their laws—This includes speaking out against an injustice. Or criticizing your government.
-Information gathering, sharing, learning. You may not be allowed easy access to information as you do now.
To wrap it all up. Some of these things sound absurd and you'd be right to say so. But all they have to do is decide that they want more control and we have to live with it.
If you think you are safe because you don't do anything "bad", all they have to do is change what that means and suddenly you're in trouble.
Important note: the number in the tweet is wrong.
It's this: (202) 224-3121
5 calls has scripts for you to use: https://t.co/5dJfbHG3oY
You can also find your state reps/sens here: https://t.co/1w5RNPjysM
If you can't do a call, emailing is also an option.
Reminder it's been stopped MULTIPLE TIMES because of *major* pushback.
Yes we should do more but until one of yall organize and come up with something, calling reps in mass numbers is the best thing. We have the numbers but aren't utilizing them.

Stopping the US bill matters more than your own country’s laws. If it passes there, it creates a global chain reaction. Platforms will roll out mandatory age verification worldwide regardless of where you live, making it practically irreversible. Take action now. 👇
