Hey guys, I love making gifs and stimboards. However all my devices now are too outdated to access, Tiktok, Instagram, basic screen recording and editing.

Last year my phone stopped working to make gifs, and a few days ago my iPad I've been using since has stopped. It happened slowly, overheating when I'd screen record to just straight up being unable to launch the tiktok or instagram app.

I currently have 45 queued gifsets. Which should last 15 days. I have a few videos saved already I haven't turned into gifs yet. Outside of that, I cannot make no gifs with my current equipment.

Reasonably one would just get a new phone or iPad. I however, cannot afford that. My idea is fixing a broken iPad I got as a gift 2 years ago thats much more modern so it can handle gif editing. However, thats also expensive.

If you want to support me I have my comms! If you could reblog the post or comm me that'd be awesome. If not just still using my gifs is enough.

Thank you for the years of support, I do not plan on deleting my account. And I am working towards repairing that gift iPad or getting a new one depending on what's cheaper to keep this hobby going.

So, in terrible news, Trump's trying to pull some strings to pass this massive internet censorship bill, featuring all the kinds of internet censorship we're terrified of, including mandatory ID for accessing basically any website, specifically to crush state regulation of AI, because apparently this man will always see the moral bottom of the barrel and start digging.

Dear Representative [Name],

I am writing to express my strong opposition to H.R. 8250 (The "Parents Decide Act"). As your constituent and a concerned citizen, I believe this bill introduces unprecedented risks to digital privacy and security.

Specifically, I am alarmed by:

SEC. 2(a)(1)(B): Requiring age verification to even use an operating system creates a mandatory "hardware lockout" that ends anonymous computing and forces users to hand over sensitive identification data to major corporations just to power on their devices.

SEC. 2(a)(3): Mandating that OS providers create a system for all app developers to access verification data is a massive security vulnerability. This effectively creates a centralized API of user identities accessible to thousands of third-party developers, many of whom may lack adequate data protection.

This bill does not protect children; it creates a centralized surveillance infrastructure at the OS level. I urge you to protect the privacy of your constituents and vote NO on H.R. 8250.

Sincerely,

[Your Name]

Given that, in the wake of this mandatory identification policy, my country seems to be moving to hand over its citizens biometric data, like fingerprints, Face ID files, and identification documents, over to the USA and to ICE to maintain the visa free travel (ESTA) we have, I strongly urge any US resident to send these emails, or make calls.

But if you can’t do that, the most powerful thing you can do is spread the word. Tell your friends, family, coworkers, anyone who can help.

My reach will likely be small, and so I don’t know if this will mean very much in the grand scheme of things, but I cannot stand to see this tracking happen to another population as it did to mine.

And if you think it won’t affect you, it will. All anonymity goes out the window when your accounts can be linked via your personal ID

In a Public Notice released on April 22, 2026, the FCC is asking Americans to submit comments about whether the TV Oversight Management Board (TVOMB) should create new TV ratings to alert viewers to “transgender and gender non-binary programming” and “the discussion or promotion of gender identity themes.”
