Read more OnlyFans, a subscriber-only website, is taking a page out of the Tumblr handbook, announcing that it will be blocking sexually explicit material starting October 1st. For those who don’t remember, back in 2018, Tumblr decided that they were going to start blocking adult content. It was a move presumably geared at “protecting vulnerable communities” on the site that ended up leaving NSFW content creators with nowhere to post their work and the loss of years of work. By March of 2019, Tumblr had lost about a third of its user base. According to PinkNews, Tumblr suffered a 150 million drop in page view traffic after their adult content ban. And if you check Google Trends’ analytics over the past five years to gauge interest in Tumblr, you also see a sharp decline in 2019 that has continuously fallen to this day. That’s what OnlyFans is risking as it begins its journey into blocking sexually explicit material. Just to clarify, OnlyFans’ ban on sexually explicit material doesn’t mean that the site will be saying goodbye to its nude photos or videos. Those can still be posted.…

An article from TikTok continues to rapidly build on its platform and tools, as it looks to capitalize on its current opportunity, and solidify its place as a key platform within the broader social media space. The platform's latest development on this front comes in the form of its own AR effects studio, which, like Facebook and Snapchat, would enable AR creators to build their own effects for the platform, expanding its pool of creative, interactive user options. As you can see in this tweet, shared by social media expert Matt Navarra (via Sam Schmir), TikTok's new 'Effect House' is currently open to selected developers as part of initial testing of the tool. TikTok has confirmed to TechCrunch that the new platform launched earlier in the month, though it's still in its early stages, and is not open for general access as yet. But eventually, the plan would be to open its Effects House platform to all creators, like Facebook's Spark AR platform and Snapchat's Lens Studio, providing more capacity for people to build their own visual effects, utilizing TikTok's various AR functions to create whole new user experiences within the app. Which makes perfect sense. By opening up the tools to…

August 23, 2021Classes were canceled at a Redding high school on Friday after a student posted a violent threat on social media, according to Police. Thursday evening the RPD learned that a student of University Preparatory School on Eureka Way had posted threats via Snapchat. After discussing it with police, school officials decided to cancel classes on Friday. Detectives got an emergency search warrant for the Snapchat account and traced it to a 12-year-old UPREP student, who eventually confessed to the post. Police say the boy had no access to weapons and no means to carry out the threat. The case was sent to Juvenile Probation for possible charges.

by Alex Billington August 23, 2021Source: YouTube "I built his body, and we've been friends ever since." This is what friends are for. Brian and Charles is a wacky comedy sci-fi short film from filmmaker Jim Archer, and after first premiering in 2017, our friends at Short of the Week have reposted it on YouTube for everyone to enjoy. We're only catching up with it now all these years later and it's unquestionably worth a watch. The short is already being adapted into a feature film, and the synopsis for that has a better intro: "After a particularly harsh winter Brian goes into a deep depression; completely isolated and with no one to talk to, Brian does what any sane person would do when faced with such a melancholic situation. He builds a robot." It was shot and it takes place in the Snowdonia National Park area (see Google Maps) in the UK, and is written by & stars David Earl & Chris Hayward, with plenty of improvisation. This is so much fun and a clever idea for a robot short. Say "hi" to them below. Thanks to Short of the Week for the reminder on this one. Brief description…
