I just like video games, anime, and manga. I love fanservice and I am anti-censorship. Nobeta from Little Witch Nobeta is my wife, and I love her dearly.
The KIDS Act passed the House and now moves to the Senate.
I maintain my prediction that the Senate will refuse to agree to the KIDS Act as written. They may amend it and pass it, but I really think they're committed to KOSA. This lack of agreement between the chambers is our best-case scenario for the current session.
But this isn't going anywhere - it's going to remain a priority for the Uniparty and we must continue to speak out and educate citizens about the TRUTH of these policies.

We hope the KIDS Act dies in the Senate - as the two chambers are having trouble coming to agreement on the best way to end internet freedom.
📢TAKE ACTION: Call your Senator and tell them to vote NO on the KIDS Act and KOSA: (202) 224-3121
Our fully analysis and what's next: https://t.co/BNDAXzYLW5
The KIDS Act passed the House Monday night 267-117 with 47 not voting.
Under suspension of the rules, it needed 2/3 to pass. Just 12 more NO votes would have defeated it.
Who voted no?
32 Republicans, largely Freedom Caucus members who read what the bill actually does.
85 Democrats...progressive civil liberties members with First Amendment concerns.
Rep. Warren Davidson said it best:
"'It's for the kids' may be sincere, but it's also for the surveillance state and effectively establishes a mandate for digital ID...Wolves disguised as sheep."
We oppose the KIDS Act because of its Digital ID framework, data collection, and surveillance mechanisms that do not protect kids or empower parents.

@juliecbarrett It is like they want to take away everything good in the world. Anime Waifus? They want those banned. Your free speech? They want you to be quiet. Your privacy? They want the government inside of your bedroom. I'm convinced people like Jon Scweppe are actually evil.
🚨 UPDATE on the freedom-killing KIDS Act. The bill has not yet shown up on the Senate legislation tracker, but we CANNOT RISK them rushing it through like they did in the House.
Call your Senators NOW and refer to it as H.R.7757, the KIDS Act.
🔗 Senator lookup tool + example message in replies!
The KIDS Act is a draconian legislative package that poses an unprecedented threat to online privacy and free speech. By mandating indefinite data retention, backdooring encryption, and criminalizing vaguely defined "obscene" content with draconian penalties, it effectively turns ISPs into mass surveillance arms of the state. The bill's AI-powered censorship regime would blacklist entire platforms over algorithmic misidentifications, while forwarding all flagged communications to law enforcement without warrant or oversight.
Critics from both parties decry it as unconstitutional overreach, likened it to Chinese style digital totalitarianism. Its proponents weaponize child safety rhetoric to circumvent debate, despite the measure doing nothing meaningful for actual victims while empowering the FBI to surveil every American's digital life by default.
@picopicogamer@The_Novu No, that would be horrible. Why should American weebs have to suffer just because some Americans are tourists? Ban localizers from vandalizing anime instead, don't ban fans.
Call your Senators and tell them we do NOT want "the Kids act".
It's a highway to a total surveillance technocracy and government tyranny.
Also check your state for any "age verification" bills in motion.

The fact that they are trying to unconstitutionally block other courts from hearing challenges to this law is insane. The online safety movement needs to die permanently
i don't care what your politics are we all gotta stop the KOSA bill, we all deserve a free internet. please please please call your senators, and tell them to say NO to the KOSA bill.
They make the bread moldy and expensive (cost of living), then they make parts of the circus lame, then they see people are making their own happiness with Waifus so they're trying to force them back onto the plantation. There's a reason young men are checked out and angry.
It's impossible to get a good job.
It's impossible to afford a house.
It's impossible to get a girlfriend.
It's impossible to get married.
And they want to take our hentai.
They want to take our waifus.
They want to censor our anime.
They want to ban you from downloading AI.
@DontPutFishInIt@TND_NOW89@deathembraceyou I feel the same way about Nobeta that you do about Konata. And I am angry at the people that are threatening to take her away from me. I hate them. I don't want to go back to the plantation and be forced to be "normal", I want to be with Nobeta-chan.
@SpiGuardian@DontPutFishInIt Yep they make life unaffordable, then they make parts of the circus lame, then they want to ban the parts of the circus that are still fun. Yeah there's a good reason young men are angry and checked out of society. Young men have every right to be angry.
