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 really wish there was an extra layer of blacklist that you can't toggle on & off. I like to turn off blacklists sometimes to see if there's something quality I may be missing. Anymore now though I'm trying to dodge even seeing these thumbnails. They don't seem like an art journey, it really just feels like satire against furries as a whole. I get graphic art has it's niche and people enjoy it. Appropriately, this doesn't share the same feeling other morbid pieces hold. Again it just seems defamatory to the entire fandom.
I hope you continue your art journey and stay true to yourself.

AdminI don't know if I would call it "satire", but it's targeted specifically against MLP.
From what I understand, it started specifically as a way to harass and annoy bronies by associating the MLP fandom with... this.
Frankly, I don't understand why it's still a thing, or why peacethroughpower decided to dump 2k fluffy pony posts on e6.

MemberFrom my understanding. Their main website was lost so they're trying to rebuild their archive. Store it somewhere till a new site is officially established to store what they salvaged

PrivilegedFluffy-Community.com is 'supposed' to be that replacement, but one-egg-basket syndrome applies. Reddit basically neutered it on that platform. The Fluffy Booru vanished, of course. And Derpibooru is not really a great choice, either.
