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 just don´t get the whole story, of girls calling themself "bitch" an stuff. why would someone make hermself so low?
(i maybe miss the point of the picture a little bit, but i guess the text is some kind of lyrics from a song with such content)
Lightning
MemberNah, she's not calling herself a bitch. Those are the lyrics for Lady Gaga's "Bad Romance".
Garios
MemberWell, then why would a woman (i belive lady Gaga is a woman :/) would make a song with such content?
Aaah forget it my desire to try to understand this will be in vain. i will just enjoy the image and ignore the text.
