I’m slowly but surely trying to catch up with re-editing and re-encoding my livestreams to fit within the 5gb size limit so I can upload them to TROM for viewing after each stream ends. Considering I’m streaming four times a week now (12-2pm pst, Mo/Th at twitch.tv/cerigotgame and Tu/Fr at joystick.tv/u/toplesstopics – see toplesstopics.org/livestream for more info) this means I’m constantly struggling to keep up, but maybe in the future I’ll figure out a way to streamline the re-encoding process…and/or finally establish enough money to host my own videos directly and not have a 5gb size limit anymore :p

The best way to see each VOD as it’s uploaded is to go directly to the TROM livestream playlist:

Topless Topics Livestream Playlist on TROM: videos.trom.tf/w/p/r7XivuJF5fT…

You can also visit the Topless Topics VOD page, but considering the fact that I have to manually update it every time a new video goes up, it is unlikely to be completely up to date:

Topless Topics VOD page: toplesstopics.org/vod

I also announce every time a new video goes up on social media and in our Discord server, so I invite you to follow me there!

VOD from Tuesday's Joystick livestream is now uploaded: "Drawing a sexy dragon lady mural! | Topless Topics Joystick Livestream 9-19-2023" videos.trom.tf/w/aJz7WwumXLN79…

Sorry that it's taking me a while to get the other VODs uploaded, the recorded files from OBS are way over the 5gb limit for TROM and it's a laborious process to re-encode them to be smaller without losing too much quality :sweat_smile: I'm working on it, I promise!

Today's #youtube / #tiktok / #instagram #shorts #video :

"When a subscription-based nudism video provider shows content containing white supremacy hand gestures"

I don't recommend watching this if you're a cis white male who is going to get offended that I talked about the resistance "many" (don't # notAllBullshit at me) cis white males display when racist/transphobic/etc dog whistles are pointed out to them, just because in their #privilege they've never noticed such things before.

Full video (until it gets banned) is on youtube:

First minute only is on Instagram:

I'm actually pretty nervous about posting this video to any mainstream platform, given how easily the #censorship #algorithms can be weaponized to get content that haters don't like #banned . But I felt like it was important enough to try to speak out anyway. Beyond that, even though I censored out the nudist video sharing website's name in the video, they have deep pockets and I'm nervous they'll somehow decide to sue me for defamation or something, even though the freeze frame is taken DIRECTLY FROM their video...

#racism #whitesupremacy #whitenationalism #bigotry #hatespeech #subliminalMessaging #subliminal #nudism #naturism

Made a #topless #genderEquality #meme based on a rant with a friend. It really drives me up the wall that the ONLY place I can post NONSEXUAL female #nipples are places that allow "full body sexually explicit #nudity " like #sexWorker sites (no hate to sex workers, it's just infuriating that in the eyes of American culture, "female nipples" = "full body nudity" = "sexually explicit"), alternative platforms like #mastodon / #fediverse that I jokingly say "no one uses" (except, you know, the legions of infosec nerds who would much rather be talking about ruby-python-activitypub-compsci-whatever-other-programmer-type-terms than the crazy radical notion that "female-looking nipples" should be allowed anywhere "male-looking nipples" are ;p)
and "anything goes" " #freespeech " platforms where you're sharing space with nazis, conspiracy theorists, and other such deplorables (:

Please feel free to download this and post it to your own #socialMedia apps! (Seriously, PLEASE DO....when my posts aren't outright #banned , they're all #shadowbanned so that they don't show up in any "recommended" feeds or search results, so I'm utterly depending on OTHER PEOPLE to share my content for anyone new to find it. 🙏

Today's #youtube #instagram #tiktok #shorts :

"Why not upload your tits to Peertube?"

(please note this is not an attack on anyone on here who has suggested I upload to Peertube--as it says in the video, I know you mean well. Just watch the video to hear why it nonetheless irritates me when this is the go-to response from people who haven't followed me for a while, or who only watch the super-censored versions of my videos)

The enraging part of being a #capitalism unfriendly #creator who gets #banned all the time for daring to present my (already #censored ) heinous female nipples for the purpose of normalizing the sight of female nipples in non-sexual context so that maybe someday we can have the same rights to go topless in public and online that "male nipples" get, is that at this moment I only have three possible places to upload my content: mainstream platforms like #YouTube #Instagram #tiktok #facebook etc that are blatantly #misogynistic and arbitrary in who and why their #algorithms ban someone (I mean, there are channels I could name on YouTube alone that have millions of viewers who post entirely nude, entirely uncensored videos and somehow get away with it, but I get banned even when I censor out my heinous female nipples with a giant digital pastie that hides my whole-arse chest??); actual porn sites (which out of desperation I've tried before, but as expected the only people who find my content on there are people already looking for women to sexually objectify, and it feels hypocritical to say "Stop treating women's chests as inherently sexual" while posting on a porn site); or tiny, obscure alternative platforms like #peertube that very few people use, and even fewer people care about Topics like #feminism , #genderEquality , racial equality, homelessness, mental health, and other #progressive Topics like that.

As it is now, I've been posting super censored versions of my content to YouTube, Instagram, etc, then embedded a link in the videos (not clickable urls in the description as YouTube has given me multiple #strikes for "linking to porn" when I link to my own website) encouraging people to go to my peertube instance to see the "#patriarchy unapproved" version of my videos, and I'm lucky if one out of a hundred ever bother to (meanwhile leaving such insightful commentary as "were bob" despite it saying RIGHT THERE IN THE VIDEO where to see "bob").

Meanwhile, you can type random characters into the YouTube search field and quickly stumble into "Pregnant Elsa kills Mario" with a thumbnail of copyrighted Disney and Nintendo figures brutally murdering each other, and somehow YouTube is totally fine with that 🙃🙃🙃

I posted this to Instagram since it's most relevant there, but thought I'd post it here as well in case there are other male presenting people in mastodon that could make use of the new viewpoint from a #freeTheNipple #toplessEquality #activist who is sick of having anti-censorship #malePrivilege shoved in my face even by self-professed allies

It description:

To those of you who support my mission for anti #censorship #genderEquality freetheneepel/topleesh equality*, I have one request:

When you're posting topleesh content to the many, many #sexist #nisogynist anti #feminism mainstream platforms run by #thePatriarchy, PLEASE censor out ALL neepels, not just "female presenting neepels) (look the phrase up at knowyourmeme.com for a fun time, lol). I ask this for two reasons:

1. Honestly, given how sexist our society is, it's as shocking to see" male presenting neepels" that ARE censored as "female presenting neepels" that AREN'T. so if you share my goals of highlighting the hypocrisy of gender-based censorship, this is a great way to do it.

2. While I value our male - presenting allies, it feels a bit like a slap in the face when you flex your privilege by posting your "male presenting neepels" knowing full well that we can't. It's a bit like standing in front of someone with dietary restrictions and deliberately eating the thing we can't eat right in front of us. I know it's a challenge to everyone to step outside of our own world experiences enough to realize something might be a problem for others without being a problem for us, but teaching ourselves empathy is a cornerstone of the lifelong effort to be better people overall ❤️

Thanks for reading! I'm really not trying to sound H condescending, just maybe raising the issue to men posting themselves topleesh without a second thought, despite considering themselves allies of the topleesh equality cause.

*sorry as always for the incoherent baby talk, but as longtime followers know, haters have weaponized false flagging to get my content unfairly banned so many times already that I'm on every algorithm's sheet list, only compounding the reality that my content is banned to a degree no one else is. This post will probably also get banned, so feel free to screenshot it and share it yourself!
