I write love stories and found family because I desperately crave some semblance of the affection I’ve been starved of my whole life. Isn’t it sad?

So I went to read the Kids Online Safety Act, thinking that it couldn't possibly be as bad as what people are making it out to be, I mean I'm a lawyer and expert in statutory interpretation, it can't be that bad, right?

Oh no. KOSA IS that bad. It will literally eradicate queer people online.

The bill says that a "covered platform" - broadly defined as "anything on the internet a minor might use" which is literally the entire fucking internet- has a "duty" to protect minors from anything that might harm them, including "sexual exploitation" and other undefined terms

It also gives state attorneys general the ability to sue to enforce it.

So here's exactly what's gonna happen:

Wacko republicans, as they've been doing with increasing force this year and last, are going to sue any and every website in existence, saying that the mere existence of LGBT people online constitutes sexual abuse of minors. And websites are gonna be so afraid of not doing the most that they'll just axe all LGBT everything.

Like. Republicans have been calling all LGBT people groomers and child molesters for years. The lead Republican literally admitted this bill will be used to attack trans people.

This bill is BAD bad. I'm appalled that democrats are lining up behind what is clearly a republican Trojan horse to eradicate LGBT people from the entire internet.

Y'all ever think about how Duke patrols during the day, utterly alone most of the time? He doesn't have default backup in the form of other people, out and about, it's just him and the assurance that someone somewhere would answer his call if something went wrong-- not just someone a burough over that he can rely on though.

Not to mention, it's Gotham. Crime doesn't stop in the daylight, the Bats just operate at night to get the heavy hitters that do and to use the darkness as a tool, a defensive line they can work out of. Duke never had had that-- and has never needed it.

Duke Thomas is the boldest of the Bats in a lot of ways, because nothing about him is a secret or ever should be-- he's a hero for the daylight, a reassurance that bad things may not balk at the sunlight, but neither will good people

reaching the point of hyperfixation where I can no longer engage with it due to the nausea that I experience at the mere thought of seeing it on my screen is the closest I’ve ever been to being diagnosed with female hysteria

reading dc comics has turned me into a hater in ways that no other comics made me a hater.

and to clarify, i do not hate the characters. they are good, Nice even. they are very Complex.

on the other hand, the storyline of some of these comic runs has made me feel like i have lost braincells and when i shoved it back to my head, it was no longer a cell made for brains.
