i find it weird that nowadays young members of fandom, especially minors, are so comfortable insulting and witchhunting the older fans.
when i was a kid in fandom spaces, i remember holding so much admiration and respect for the older fans. after all, they kept it all going
This is the official artwork for the original novel "Trinity Blood" drawn by me, THORES Shibamoto. Thank you for sharing it with everyone. If you share my illustrations with others, please mention me by mentioning my name or tagging me.

I worked as an assistant to Hirohiko Araki,the creator of
"JoJo's Bizarre Adventure"
and learned numerous manga techniques from him. This is one example.
do you understand what Google's AI just did to an artist..
His entire Google account got permanently banned. Not just Drive. Gmail.. YouTube.. Every single service..
His appeal was rejected. No human reviewed it. An algorithm decided his life's work was a violation.
He never shared the files publicly. It was a private backup of his own creations. The AI flagged it anyway - probably the filename or art style - and that was enough.
- Google banned a developer's 14-year-old Gmail account over a research dataset that contained no illegal content
- Google expanded its automated ban policy in October 2025 - violations now trigger immediate termination with zero warning period
- No lawsuit against Google for wrongful account termination has ever succeeded in US courts
Your Google account is not yours. You are renting access to your own digital life from a company whose AI can end it in seconds - with no appeal, no human, and no recourse.
@O_nlysalvat For translation:The artist only has 3 accounts on X only (mgong520,Onlysalvat,maong52000). She is an idependent creator, not a comic artist so she doesn't have any assistant or paying content. All her works are free to display/veiwing. If there were any charging post, it's a scam
In every single country that passed age verification laws:
1) databases got leaked
2) innocent websites got censored
3) governments became more censorship heavy
4) protests became more criminalized
5) information got harder to find
why do you guys think you can go into the hospital and ask them to amputate your leg because you're bored. he had cancer. that's why his leg was amputated
Long story short: It's going to target everything the government doesn't want you to see or say.
It's going to be the same thing here in the US and your country soon, too.
Take the Discord age verification seriously. This is a case where even a VPN won't get you around this, as it effects everyone regardless if Age Verification has been implemented in your country or state or not.
do not let them get away with this.
posing an information grab-and-sell under the guise of protecting children is nasty work
there's literally like 99 other ways to go about this. their only aim is money, don't let them fool you
This is so fucking scummy to set everyone's accounts to teen by default. All to force us to give them our government ID.
Discord was hacked last year and they had 1.5TB of data and 2 million government IDs leaked.
Several tens of thousands of those were kids IDs
Reminder that Discord is going public in March.
Investors and underwriters should be paying close attention to the risks created by sudden policy shifts that lock paying users out of data and workspaces, expand sensitive data collection, and expose the company to serious regulatory and unfair-practices scrutiny.
This is not the profile of a well-managed platform.
