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!

MemberI find the Amalgamatations to be rather intriguing. My favorite one is the dog like entity that corners you in the fan room.
Bongani
MemberAgreed. He (i.e. Endogeny) may be an eldritch abomination created because someone decided syringes were toys, but he's bloody adorable despite that.
Lister
MemberTrue, but at least there was a (somewhat) noble intention behind his and the other amalgamete's creations. It just went horribly, horribly wrong.
Bongani
MemberI think the fact that they managed to reintegrate so well into society (well, at least Endogeny, the snowdrake amalgamate, and Lemon Bread - no Memoryhead or Reaper Bird in the playable epilogue) is because of this and the fact that, well, they should be little more than dust. Remember that Alphys' subjects were at death's door when she experimented with them, so it's safe to say that being trapped in a gestalt entity and not having much control over your fate is certainly preferable to no longer existing.
SwiperTheFox
MemberNot sure if I agree with that. I think it depends. I'd much rather not exist than be Flowey, personally. Yeesh.
Bongani
MemberI'm speaking about the Amalgamations, not Flowey. (Flowey's situation is nowhere near the Amalgamations'.)
