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!

MemberWhaaaa, don't you know this Pichu is 10,000 year old vampire?!

MemberThe funny thing about this is that Pichu evolves from a high friendship with someone, meaning that this pichu or either didn't got someone close to her to call "best friends" for 21 years or she willingly decided to not evolve. (They can choose to not evolve, remember Ash's bulbasaur)

MemberBut FA doesn't care about the lore. The important thing is the looks. If there would be a 2 year old cub, who looked like 50 years old, they wouldn't do anything, because it looks adult.
