An age verification bill in Kansas that is the most extreme in the country has passed both House and Senate and is on its way to the governor’s desk. The bill will make sites with more than 25 percent adult content liable to heavy fines if they don’t verify that visitors are over the age of 18. It also calls being gay “sexual conduct,” which critics say could set up the state for more censorship of LGBT+ citizens.

Are there even that many NON-porn videos on the internet?

[-] ptz@dubvee.org 17 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Yes, but they're all of cats.

[-] Steve@startrek.website 7 points 2 years ago

Perfect! This site contains 100% pussy!

[-] pennomi@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Hell, keep the cat videos and remove the porn. Everybody loves cats.

Paraphrased from a wise man on an old TV show (Scrubs):

Dr Cox: If they removed porn from the internet, there would only be one website left: www dot BringBackThePorn dot com

Everybody but Tim loves cats. And the internet hates Tim.

[-] tim-clark@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago

The internet is full of blanket statements, not everyone loves cats. Tim has a love/hate relationship with cats, just like people some are sweet but they are all assholes.

What do you mean "But"? Its definitely an "And" scenario. Cat videos are a boon to all involved, right?

Or am I too ace to understand the syntax

Time to make and market a package of 30,000 10 frame long 100 pixel x 100 pixel random videos.

Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
