Jun 16, 2026, 8:35 PM@adr@mastodon.social why are Catgirls offensive?
If I were that library I'd commission a couple variants of the catgirl reading banned books 👀

MaysonLancastermaysonic@twit.socialJun 18, 2026, 12:23 AM@vandorb12 @adr @julian I wonder what my brother’s opinion would be. (He’s an emeritus hoity-toity librarian who once had to accept a purported lock of Emily Dickinson’s hair for the library’s collection.)

@maysonic @vandorb12 @julian oh yeah, a good special collections will have tons of weird shit. Mine has Bertrand Russell's entire life, basically. Like I've held the dude's Nobel Prize and a card from John Lennon and Yoko Ono. Also, like, Tom Cochrane's actual guitar, the first draft of Clockwork Orange with extra stuff in it, just total Indiana Jones warehouse.
khmkhm@hj.9fs.netJun 16, 2026, 10:57 PMI mean if I were going to deploy this software I'd pay to rebrand it
I don't really give a shit about catgirls as an artistic mode but that specific art sucks, so I'd rather not have to spend bandwidth money serving it
so this business model works on cowards and also people with taste
