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.

We still have a Discord server, come talk to us!

Sorry, couldn't resist XD

MemberI didn't want to say the whole thing for brevity's sake, but if you're curious, the supposedly real story ended like this:
"The next day during gym class, it came back out, but I didn't want anyone to know so I waited until after school to take it out and it was hard boiled. So I put it in the fridge when I got home until I figured out what to do with it. A couple hours later, my dad was eating an egg salad sandwich."
I think the most disappointing part of that is she never asked a fucking question.
