April 10th: The bill has been vetoed!
April 2nd: The politicians in Arizona are about to sign into law a bill that would mandate sites like e621 to either impose age verification on all users or be at a risk of lawsuits. Such system would be required to go through third party vendors, who in turn must go through a government database to verify every user's age. This is not only a major violation of privacy, but it also opens up a very real danger of identity theft through phishing schemes and other methods, not to mention that we would not be able to control any of that information to make sure it is permanently deleted after age verification is complete.
Unfortunately, Arizona is the state out of which e621 operates, which means that this law will almost certainly affect us if it is to pass. If want to help us ensure that this site can continue to serve you without being required to know who you are, please ask the Arizona governor to veto this bill.
Please, help us get the word out by letting others know about this issue.
For some further information on what the bill does have a look at https://action.freespeechcoalition.com/bill/arizona-hb-2586/
We still have a Discord server, come talk to us!

Even then, I'm not sure it's the right one.

MemberIs she using her psychiatrist magic to make gilda feel bad or something?
I don't get russian humor
IHateRule34
MemberI don't get it either. May be it's some kind of author-specific joke... gotta find source of this and ask.
DarkRock
Memberguys, who is author?
I think what there is not humor. Maybe Flattershy and Gilda together in this picture remembers insults (sorry me from my English, i'm from Ukraina)

MemberFluttershy is known for her power to stare down any foe in tight spots, be it dragons which she normally fears, or cockatrices in the midst of turning her to stone. Her stare is legendary for making others wilt and repent.

MemberOh, I just saw The Stare tag. That makes more sense

He got quite Gildas expression

MemberI think it's a take on the Yakov Smirnoff "In Soviet Russia..." joke.
In this case its reversing the role of the bully between Gilda and Fluttershy.
Again, it feels like a stretch so I'm not sure it's actually the joke. DarkRock might be right and there might not be any humorous intent to the picture.

MemberAhh we have taught you well Fluttershy. Be assertive to your patients. I am so glad one of my comrades recommended you for this psychiatrist job. I believe a promotion is in order.
