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!

MemberAs someone with dysphoria and no intention to change (a plethora of reasons have gone into this, first and foremost is that too often I see Trans women who make me puke), I don't get the trans majority.
But then, I'm also a furfag who dislikes fursuits, so maybe I'm just the odd one out.

MemberAnd it's not any business what kind of video games you're playing, what comic books you're reading, what sort of food you're eating, or such to anyone else either. It's just that some people have to play 'king of the mountain' and want to boss others around about their lives. Whether it's Mister Strickland from Back to the Future or General Hux from Star Wars or King K. Rool from Donkey Kong or whoever in real-life (Ted Cruz/Michael Bloomberg/Donald Trump/etc), bossypants gonna bossypants.

MemberI know that this is going to sound trollish and bigoted, but what I'm about to say is backed by large amounts of medical evidence. I'm not trying to piss anyone off, though that's inevitable. It's the Internet, after all. Here goes...
Transgender is a mental disorder like clinical depression and schizophrenia and is treatable through modern pharmaceuticals.

Memberthey used to say the same thing about being gay, women wanting to work outside the home, women wanting to vote, people wanting to marry someone of a different race, women being angry, women being upset, and women being basically anything that wasn't a flat blank staring lethargy.
It was even backed up by the research at the time.
