Okay, so, Sidurgu. First like, there is obviously a lot of speculation and such that comes with the territory, we have pretty limited information on Sidurgu, and even less on him prior to the Dark Knight quests.

SEGA have some new third party IP agency doing the rounds, so if you have any Yakuza, Sonic etc merch in your Etsy and you've not been got yet, it's time to rename some listings.
So another asshole reported my yakuza listings and Etsy has removed them from my store so I guess my job is done...

i'm afraid this might be a case where the creator of a piece of art is lost to time, but the oldest recorded version of the "come back" blackout poetry piece is dated 2013, from now deleted tumblr user lets-love-at-dusk-till-dawn
so, credit where credit is due.

A memo was released by ICE instructing agents to violate the U.S. Constitution. ICE told officers and agents that they can forcibly enter homes without warrants signed by judges. The memo was from ICE Acting Director Todd Lyons, was shared with Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn) by two whistleblowers.

Thinking about how bsky has the most horrible setting turned on by default that says "i don't want to see any other languages except English" and if no one tells you to put it on "no selection" you straight up won't see posts from people set to different languages on your TL.

I have been told that this undercover ICE agent tried to get observers to scan a QR code “for his website”. The QR code did not resolve to a link.
DO NOT SCAN UNKNOWN QR CODES FROM STRANGERS.
This is a massive security risk! Bad things can happen to you if you do it!
Stay frosty, friends.

Every day some story breaks me some. Today it’s the guy who approached parents at a school patrol, told them he was with Indivisible, and asked about how the patrol system works. The parents gave vague answers, followed him back to his car — and of course it was ICE.

Ask not what your representative will do for you (nothing), ask how you can make your representative so miserable they quit their job
My attitude on this is that I'm not calling them because I think I can change their minds.
I'm calling them because it is unthinkable to let them do this without hearing how evil and awful they are.
My spite powers me. If I can get just 500 people a day to join me, we could fuck up their day.

I call Tommy Tuberville every fucking week, multiple times a week, because he can be evil but I don't have to let him do it without pushback.
So I don't need to hear excuses. I call the dumbest senator in the country. 😂
