    Not if I read it correctly: not uploading anything (and fuck you Discord) means I won’t get invited to view adult content, right? That’s it? And we’ll all be teens forever?

    Pfft. Whatever.

    For now… maybe 6 months or a year and everyone might need it. That’s the way everything seems to be going.

    Maybe. That’d be an easy goodbye though.

    I agree, already made a post in my server to follow me on X, Y, Z etc and how they were recently hacked 70,000 IDs leaked so they can’t be trusted.
