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!

MemberThe problem is that people usually forget to check the chamber when they mess around with the gun and think that ejecting the clip is all that needs to be done, It reminds me of mgs5 when you reload it insert and new clip and then slide a single bullet into the chamber manually to ensure max capacity, or when people are playing Half life alyx and assume they find a bug when they realize they have 11 bullets in the pistol when they reload an empty clip with 1 bullet in the chamber.

Memberconsistent usage of "clip" to mean "magazine" and "bullet" to mean "round"/"cartridge" is funny

MemberForth rule about guns: We don't talk about Brun- ... Something about these rules doesn't seem right... But I can't quite place my finger on it...

MemberFour reasonably simple rules for handling firearms:
1. Keep your finger off the trigger until you are ready to fire.
2. Treat every firearm as if it is loaded.
3. Always be sure of your target and its surroundings.
4. Never point the muzzle of your gun at anything you're not willing to destroy.
Guess what Nick is not doing in this image. Hint: it's all fucking four.
