⚠️Hey, so this may be very (VERY) urgent:⚠️
So, I don’t normally do this, but something urgent came up, and I really need y’all to read this. There’s a TL;DR at the bottom of this post, but I strongly advise reading this post all the way through to gain more context on the situation at hand.
I don’t know all the details, but there’s this act floating around in the US called the “Kid’s Online Safety Act” - or KOSA , if you will. Here’s a description of it:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
In summary, this law, if put in place, would aim to wipe out sites that could provide youth with life-saving resources, or even mention topics related to the LGBTQIA+ community and suicide prevention.
Now, obviously this is only a thing in America, so you’d think it wouldn’t affect the rest of the world, right?
Well, not exactly.
So you know how fandom sites such as Tumblr, AO3 and Wattpad provide an escape for many people across the world who are going through hard times (to put it simply)? I don’t mean to scare anyone, but if this law passes, these sites may be negatively affected globally.
Here’s a TikTok I found by a creator known as omarsbigsister that explains it better. It’s mainly about AO3 but Tumblr and Wattpad are mentioned too:
We all know why fandom is so important. Many people, as I’ve mentioned, use sites such as the ones previously listed to escape the troubles of their everyday life. In addition, fanfiction sites in particular provide creative outlets for writers across the globe. This law could possibly destroy this form of escapism and a creative outlet.
I’ve linked a link tree found in the above TikTok creator’s link tree at the bottom of this post. Please sign them regardless of where you’re from.
Also, y’all know I usually don’t ask for clicks, but interacting with this post in some way or even making a post of your own like this to spread the word would also be of great help!
We have to stop KOSA from being passed. The lives of America’s youth and future of fandom depend on it.
Thanks in advance!
- hpnewgen
TL;DR: KOSA is putting the lives of American youth and the future of fandom as a whole at risk and we need to act now.
Edit: Since this post is still getting engagement (thank you all for the support!), I should mention that I made a second KOSA post highlighting how dangerous the bill is outside of fandom-related things. I highly suggest checking that one out, since the info provided is very important! It’s the second-latest post on this blog excluding the pinned post. Thanks!

So Tumblr is being a coward again is obviously removing Pales.tine and G@za from trending.
So, Here's a trick Arabs use on social media.
We refer to Palestine by a Watermelon 🍉
Why? It's just the same colours as the flag 🇵🇸
And if we fail, we use olive 🫒 as it's Palestine's most important tree.
So, hashtag Watermelon or Olive?

Beware of User (@) Petribug (Tiktok and Tumblr)
I was scrolling on tiktok earlier and I’m a huge fan of adventure time and came across a petrigrof post and as a lover of petrikov I scrolled…bad mistake
This user posted a tiktok of their petrigrof au in which Betty cares for Simon, but she is a mad scientist and experiments on Simon…with lobotomies…
They romanticize the relationship where Simon begs her to stop and she continues anyways, going so far as to compliment him and call him “princess” after the procedure.
However, it gets worse. For the before and after picture made of Simon pre and post lobotomy, this user used and referenced and incorporated real photos from a victim of a lobotomy.
I don’t think I should have to specify why this is harmful, but just in case: lobotomies are not something to be romanticized or depicted in any positive light. It was a horrific surgery inflicted upon impoverished people or people who were mentally ill or considered disabled for simple ailments. To use something so complicated for an “au” disrespects what those actual people went through.
They apologized and claimed it on the basis of “it was dark horror, it’s going to be a dark subject matter” but you can make scary and horror related content without having to reference real life events or experiences that happened to actual people. It’s such a specific scenario there’s no way to go about it that isn’t disrespectful to the victims.
Their apology:
Tumblr media
And here is what art I could find remaining up on others accounts:

haiiiiii would you mind sharing some bloggers that are also littles and post that kind of content pls 🥰💞💞
Tbh at this point I follow very few people who reblog that kinda content on a regular basis. A lot of people I originally followed for that became inactive once the height of cg/l popularity died or were on some kinda sketchy shit when the whole “icky little” sentiment just becoming a cover for straight up pedophilia gained traction. That being said my lovely mutuals @lilbabypossum and @babycabbit are probs the ones I see the most little content for 💕

Hi do you know any bases on here or Twitter or posts little updates from their fancafe and also updates from bubble?
I follow someone on Twitter for bubble updates but they don't ever post the captions, if there is any with the selfies.
Unfortunately I don’t. I don’t follow anything for bubble or fancafe personally (mostly bcs I never think about it). @xeednetwork might have an answer so I’m gonna redirect your question over to them. They were originally the only xeed blog on here and tend to have more answers than I do.

Hi Cece! I don't know where else to ask about this, but are people aware that Somik-Severinka completely stole another simmer's notes and then went and monetized all the custom recipe stuff? I thought it is about time to say something somewhere, because they've gone a long time now without giving any credit or thanks whatsoever. Thank u and I hope you have a good day!
Hey idk anything about this bestie, I don't really know the creator you're talking about very well. If you have proof of this I'd say try going to the original creator and seeing what they have to say about it, if they want to say something I'll gladly boost their voice on the subject but otherwise there isn't much I can offer. It's not my work/tou so it's more up to them to speak about if they find it necessary I suppose? If the original creator makes/made a post feel free to drop me the link and I'll reblog it though.

KOSA Part 2 (🚨PLEASE READ🚨)
First and foremost, I would like to thank you all once again for all the support on my first post about the Kid's Online Safety Act (KOSA). As of right now, it's gained 524 notes, but even one note would have made some sort of difference.
One of the reblogs on this post made a good point in mentioning that the info I provided was a bit too heavily focused on the fandom side of things (i.e. The fact that sites such as AO3 will be negatively impacted if the bill passes). To make up for this, I've decided to make another KOSA post highlighting other negative effects this bill will have that aren't fandom related. My sincerest apologies for only scraping the surface of this bill's severity in my first post.
Like last time, there will be a TL;DR at the end of this post, but I strongly advise you to read this the entire way through. There will also be a Linktree provided with petitions for you to sign, as well as scripts you can call your senators with if you are able to do so.
Here is a link to current information about KOSA (I reblogged the reblog on my OG post with the link in it, but reblogs don't show up in the tags so I'm plugging it again), as well a link to an article that highlights the dangers that come with this bill (Disclaimer: the article was written back in May so the info in it may not be as up-to-date). It is the second link on this post.
To summarize, the bill "sets out requirements to protect minors from online harms", when in reality, it will only increase surveillance and restrict access to vital information. In other words, the US government will get to determine what should/shouldn't be accessed by minors - or anyone else - online. In the eyes of Republican state attorneys, this includes topics about groups of people they have been going out of their way to strip rights from such as the LGBTQIA+ community. This would also allow them to censor information about mental and reproductive health.
They're basically trying to control how young people view the world through the internet and censor anything they do not want people - underage or not - to know about. This could also give Republicans the opportunity to spread their own propaganda to further negatively influence the minds of American Youth.
Another article I found (July 2023) mentions how KOSA, should it be passed, would "mandate parental consent when children under age 13 create online accounts and require providers to give the parents of these children the ability to change privacy settings. As a result, advocates say, children will be forced to tell their parents which sites they visit." This is harmful because if a minor is a member of the LGBTQIA+ community, for example, and they visit a site that provides them with an outlet for expressing themselves, the site would be required to notify their parents. If said parents are unsupportive, this could put the minor in question in grave danger.
After reading all of this, you're probably wondering how you can help. A few things you can do include - but may not be limited to:
Signing the petitions in the linktree.
Calling your senators using the scripts provided in some of the links if you are able.
Interact with this post, as well as other posts about KOSA (once again, I normally don't ask for clicks like this, but desperate times call for desperate measures).
Create your own post about KOSA on every social media platform you can (You can use the links I've provided below if you choose).
We CANNOT, under ANY circumstances, let this bill be passed, so PLEASE do all you can to help. The future of American youth - and America as a whole - is at great risk.
If anyone has any additional information about KOSA, please let me know so I can add it to this post. Once again, I apologize for not going this in-depth about this the first time I posted about this. I promise I will do better in the future.
For additional and current information about KOSA, feel free to check out the following creators on TikTok. Much of what I've learned about KOSA outside of my own research came from them. Creators highlighted in green have playlists on their page dedicated to KOSA:
doctor_jason (Dr. J)
fightfortheftr (Fight for the Future)
yourfavoriteguy (YourFavoriteGuy)
juiceinaboxx (fanfiction father~ - His page is dedicated mainly to fandom-related topics but he has made a few videos with crucial info about the bill.)
omarsbigsister (alpha - I first found out about KOSA from this creator. You may recognize her from the video in my OG post.)
TL;DR: KOSA aims to censor crucial information and provide parents with surveillance into their kids' online lives under the guise of "protecting the kids". This will cause more harm than the bill lets on, and we need to do everything we can to stop it from getting passed. My sincerest apologies for not pointing this out in my last post.
STOP KOSA! Linktree

So apparently KOSA (2024 edition) is getting either thrown out until next year or put into effect in six days. That was a guesstimate based on a different person saying that's when Congress is back in session and may be false.
Update that's going in the main post at the top: it has enough support to pass Congress.
It failed the last two times because people were voting against it.
This time, KOSA has traction among the pro-LGBTQ parties. Because nobody is fucking calling their bullshit and screaming from the rooftops that calling it the "Kids Online Safety Act" is misleading.
What will it passing do?
Nothing much, only prevent any education on LGBTQIA+ (it's that stupid fucking argument about us grooming kids again), shut down nearly every fandom space on the internet, and make it required for most big tech companies to have your ID.
Want to have resources for kids to discover their identity readily available? Yes? Then fucking speak up against this stupid fucking bill.
Fandom spaces like Tumblr, Twitter (? I thought the MAGA assholes liked Musk?), Tiktok, Archive Of Our Own, and any other website that hosts fanfic or fanart? Either shut down permanently, forced to uproot to a different country and down for a while (best case scenario, and they likely won't be able to send any data, and therefore fanfics, to the US), or gutted so that you only get to put G rated cishet ships on there, if any shipping at all. How to avoid that? I've already said it: Call your fucking representatives.
Want to avoid the fucking dystopic task of being legally obligated to give big tech your government issue ID? Again, cause an uproar. Call your goddamned representatives.
If they can pass this, the ripple effects could be catastrophic.
So, for fuck's sake, any Americans that can impact this stupid fucking bill and see this? Do everything in your power to shut it down because you have until February twenty sixth (26th) to send this bill back to where it belongs.
And if you can't do that? Reblog, copy my tags, and boost the signal.
Sorry not sorry for ranting, making you scroll through that, and swearing a probably excessive amount, but KOSA is a bill with a GLOBAL IMPACT being passed by ONE COUNTRY because some old people are scared of two guys with who were told they were girls kissing within five hundred miles of a child. Fuck this shit, I shouldn't have to worry about bad bills in America but I fucking do because I use the internet and would like to avoid mass censorship. Fuck this, fuck conservatives, and fuck the fact that some boomers make your country's policies.
Now, if you won't mind me, I'm going to be up until three in the morning downloading fanfiction or copying and pasting them into a a text file if I can't so I can read them by the end of the week.

*:・゚✧*:・゚✧ love language (verse iii); s.g.
synopsis: a first date with gojo satoru? maybe... or maybe not... content: canon divergence (still teen!gojo era!), fem!reader, hopeless romantic gojo, best bros satoru and suguru bickering as always, gojo has given you a nickname (and I will now claim reader and gojo as "gojo and his mochi"), unimpressed nanami, not beta read (sorry for any errors!) note: another addition to my gojo anthology series! I'm having sm fun writing these lil things for myself and you all! also... should I start a tag list? lmk in the replies!
"Nanami Kento, Haibara Yu, and," Yaga Masamichi introduced before gesturing in your direction, speaking your name. "You may know the first two already but we've got another sorcerer to the school roster." Continuing his speech towards his three students that sat before him, Suguru and Shoko listened closely, eyeing a brooding Kento and a smiley Yu... while Satoru gazed at you with the biggest heart eyes. He didn't seem to care if he was obvious, after his first interaction with you ever (possibly the best moment of his life), he made it his goal to see you at least once a day. If you were away on missions, or busy during a lecture, he'd find a way to see you... even if it was from afar. "I want you three to mentor them from now on. Each of you teaming up with one of them and spending at least an hour a day to help them boost up their technique—"
"I'll be partnered up with mochi!" Gojo exclaimed, interrupting his teacher with a hand in the air.
"What's the point of raising your hand if you're gonna interrupt anyway?" Geto teased, earning a look from his best friend as he stuck out his tongue.
"Who... is mochi?" Yaga asked, pinching the bridge of his nose, never quite getting used to his white haired student. 
Pointing at you and speaking your name, you stood there with wide eyes and a blush. You weren't new to Gojo's behavior, after you first met him (helping you rescue your now kitten off a tree), you had plenty of... interesting interactions. At first, it was a lot to take in, seeing as he was very eccentric and grew really comfortable with you so easily, but after some time, you grew comfortable with it. With him. However, him calling you one of his favorite treats was a first. "She's cute like a mochi—"
"Oh, god..." Shoko shook her head as Suguru raised his eyebrows.
"That's a first," Yu spoke up, covering his mouth as he couldn't help but chuckle.
"No," the shared teacher spoke. "You will not be paired with her—"
"What! Why not?! We're best friends!" Satoru whined as you looked away with a subtle blush.
"Psht, that's harsh, am I now forgotten?" Suguru crossed his arms, leaning back in his seat. "What if I want to team up with mochi?" The young man smirked, earning a scowl from his best friend.
"Never call her that again," Gojo hissed, earning a laugh from Geto.
"Enough, you two, she will be partnered up with Shoko. Knowing you two, you'd end up getting her hurt somehow," earning a gasp from the two boys, you couldn't help but smile, biting your bottom lip at the way they reacted. "I trust Nanami and Haibara will be fine in either of your care."
"Ugh," Gojo groaned.
"I suppose that's fair," Geto shrugged, earning a shove from Gojo in which he shoved back. "Who are we teamed up with, then?"
"Geto, you'll be paired up with Haibara," hearing a faint cheer come from Yu, Kento only sighed, rubbing his forehead. "Which means Gojo, you'll be paired up with Nanami."
"Well, if I can't have my mochi, I guess Nanamin is fine!" Gojo crossed his arms behind his head. "No offense, Haibara! Nanamin is just great company to tease," he grinned, earning an eye roll from the young, blond man.
"Perfect, today will be your first day. Report back here in an hour. Get to know one another's abilities better." At that, Yaga dismissed the class, Shoko rushing up to you and interlocking arms as she pulled you out with her. You couldn't help but look back at Satoru, seeing his grin towards  Kento turn into a frown as he looked at you. Sending him a small smile and wave, he waved back, happy that he at least got your attention for the time being.
Weeks then passed after Yaga paired everyone off, though it didn't change how things went—specifically missions—Gojo found another reason to see you. At least, another way to see you. Shoko's RCT required her to be in specific places, so he was well aware of where to find you when he wasn't with his own classmates. Nanami, on the occasion, was dragged along. Forced to watch his senior poorly flirt with you when you (shockingly) didn't seem too bothered by it. Instead, it made you flustered. You seemed to have enjoyed Satoru's attention. Of course, it never lasted long with Ieiri kicking both boys out (or just Gojo if he was the only one there) because she was busy being a good mentor and teaching you.
"I'm bored," Satoru whined as he sat on a bench, eyeing Kento as he trained on the open field. "This pairing up thing isn't all that fun."
"That's because you're not doing your job as my senior," Nanami spoke with a lack of enthusiasm.
"What's there to teach you? You're good as it is," he waved a hand as he sipped at his milk box. "I just wanna see my mochi..."
Sighing, Nanami shook his head before lifting it from his palm as he massaged his temples. A faint smile grew on his lips at the sight of you approaching, it seemed as if Shoko had lead the way before parting to go on her own route. You waved happily as he waved back, only to look at his senior to see that he hadn't noticed you. Grinning, Nanami quietly made his way towards you, his fellow classmate. To anyones shock, the two of you actually grew close. You saw one another like siblings, getting along quite well and actually maintaining interesting conversations. No one would've figured, he was a quiet boy and only really spoke when spoken to, but you brought something out of him. You always found something to speak about. Maybe it was your shared love for baked goods, or the possibility that you weren't annoying like most of the people around him. You were timid, but you were also very kind and social with those you were comfortable with. "How'd it go today?"
"Good, Shoko is very skilled, it's a shame we don't focus much on her technique. RCT is very important, no one does it like her." Smiling up at him as the two of you bumped fists, you then peeked over to Satoru, who was now lying on the bench, completely unaware of your presence. "Is he okay?"
"Being lazy as always," Nanami shrugged, but you slightly frowned. "Don't worry about it."
"What are you two babbling about?!" Gojo called out, not realizing who he had been yelling at. 
"I'll catch you later..." the blond said before patting your head, then walking away.
"Hey, I asked you a—" Sitting up and realizing who he had been yelling at, Gojo's eyes widened as he gulped. "Mochi!"
"Hi, Satoru," you greeted with a kind smile, causing him to blush. "Long day?"
Instantly standing up, nearly tripping over his own feet, he shook his head. "No! I was just... taking a break! Y'know... training others can be so tiring," he frowned while slumping forward as you let out a small laugh. "Especially someone as skilled as Nanamin!"
"Right," You nodded. "I hadn't seen you all day. I was thinking..."
Blinking a few times as he watched you approach, Gojo gulped, "yeah?"
"We should get an early dinner—"
"Now?" His eyes widen as he stood straight, earning another laugh from you.
"Mhm, or later, whatever you prefer—"
"Now! Now is good," He nodded, meeting you halfway before he wrapped an arm around your shoulders. "I know the perfect place! Plus, right next door, they sell some delicious mochi..." He grinned as you smiled up at him.
"Is this our first date?" Gojo teased as you sat on a bench, sharing a box of mochi. The dinner was as great as he had promised, a cute little restaurant that Gojo frequented. Satoru tried his best to impress you with his cooking skills, only to burn half of what he ordered. You couldn't help but laugh it off, deciding to cook the rest—in which he praised your skills (and promised to improve his own for the next time). For someone trying to do some impressing, he's constantly teetering between being shy and letting his confidence kick in (even if it was false, trying to win you over).
"Hmm, I was the one who asked to go to dinner," you said, biting into your mochi. "Shouldn't I decide that?"
"Wait!" Gojo lifted his hands, pulling the box of mochi away as you tilted your head. "I took us here to get our dessert," he nudged his head back, towards the stand. 
"So..." you trailed. 
"So... this could be our first date!" He beamed, earning a look from you as you playfully lifted an eyebrow.
"Maybe."
