ight, here goes nothing, does anyone have that weird creepy pic of a NPC ragdoll (either male 07 or 09) stretched to the point of looking like a cryptid? I recall it floating around circa 2021-22, but I personally can't find it anywhere, here's a reconstruction for reference
@studioaaacom would you consider getting linux support for dither boy? I'd be more interested in buying it since I've been considering an OS switch sometime in the future

There is a key takeaway from Discord’s “Please don’t be mad at us” press release:
The UK, Australia, Brazil, Europe, and *multiple* US states are pressuring Discord into mandatory ID verification. Their hand is forced.
In some cases like the UK and Australia, they don’t even have the options to estimate your age. They MUST get the IDs.
You need to pay attention to this. There is a global concerted effort to force mandatory ID verification and deanonymize the Internet. This is all packaged under the guise of child safety or national security for moral cover, but what it really is is a complete control over all narrative and the ability to censor, deplatform, silence, and even legally or physically harm people who speak out against the powers that be.
It’s important to note that this is a non-partisan issue. This affects everyone, regardless of political affiliation. Whether you want to tell edgy jokes online or whether you want to protest ICE, these laws put you in danger. This is and must remain a UNITING issue for all people.
You must make your voices heard and reject the big surveillance narrative and the panopticon-ization of society. Every time a law tries to pass, you must vote against. Every time a politician tries to run on this frankly evil rhetoric, you must vocalize your objection.
You must chimp out about this. If the chimp is strong enough, it slows it down.
Privacy is your most important asset, especially in the age of AI and surveillance. It’s your right to speak freely, whether you want to call Trump a moron or whether you want to say secure the border. It’s important that you are protected and free to do so.
Reject mandated ID verification. Use other platforms if forced, keep resisting as long as possible.
