Feb 26th:A new bill in Arizona is making its way through the Senate that would force sites like e621 to implement mandatory age verification for all users—or face potential lawsuits. This system would require third-party vendors to verify every user’s age through a government database. Not only is this a massive violation of privacy, but it also introduces serious risks, including identity theft through phishing schemes and other malicious methods. Worse still, we would have no control over ensuring that user data is permanently deleted after verification.
Since e621 operates out of Arizona, this law would almost certainly impact us if it passes. If you want to help ensure that we can continue serving you without being forced to collect personal information, we urge you to contact Arizona’s senators and ask them to vote NO on this bill.
Please help spread the word about this issue and encourage others to take action.

A drawing of my pikachu, Macaroni, in a poorly made devil costume to celebrate reaching 666 followers on my Bluesky. This drawing is very reliant on context, and so is his costume. I still don’t know how to write good dialogue, this’ll just have to do for now
If you’d like to also maybe add to my follower base and see even more evil pikachus consider visiting my still fairly new Bluesky page, that’s where I’m active now:
