Just a quick heads up, I'm probably going to be mostly inactive for the next day or so, mainly because it looks like my laptop is finally giving up the ghost.
I'm going to try and build up the courage to get my new pc set up and running.
So, if I'm slow(er) to reply to messages, that's why.

I'm watching an adult creator get systematically cut off from every income stream by payment processors and now debankment could be on the table. She makes legal content. They are trying to shut her up and hope that we'll shut up too.
We must get louder. Call Visa and MC. Tell them this will stop.

Ana's situation has gotten more severe. This is blatantly targetted debanking and [extremely unfortunate] proof that these call campaigns are getting under paypros skin
Keep calling Visa and MC and demanding they stop discriminating against adult content!

So, I decided to update my current fictional crushes list, again.
As with previous lists; number 1 is top left and number 25 is bottom right.
The changes in rankings are; Alastor, Bonkers, Beerus and Scar were dropped. I do still love them though.
The new lads are; Sonar, Mambo, Timon and ALF.

I'm hearing the same thing. Dems are nearing a surrender. I'm shocked. Largest protest in history + best election night in years + polling showing we're kicking their ass in public opinion. And now Dems may cave.
It ain't over til it's over, so please do call if you've got a Dem senator.

Sounds like the squishes in the senate caucus are ready to pull the plug with no ACA changes. This is real. If you want to register your opinion you shld call yr senator in the next hour. They not only want to reopen w/nothing. They want cover from their colleagues who still want to hold out.

This is *unacceptable*

This wasn’t about leaking GTA VI.
It was:
Rockstar illegally firing union members to stop the studio from unionizing.
it directly contradicts Rockstar’s PR narrative and confirms almost everything that people suspected was going on.

Texas and Utah have passed ID verification laws (KOSA) for all appstore use.Texas starts 1/02/26 Utah starts in July. Contact your reps!! tell your senate to vote no so it isnt made federal!! support organizations who are against this like eff!

Texas Age Verification Starts Jan 1: ID Required for ALL Apps
Starting January 1, 2026, Texas will require age verification to download ANY app, including weather and sports apps—thanks to SB2420. Apple and Google are warning this destroys user privacy, similar laws are coming to Utah and Louisiana, and there's a federal bill to make it nationwide. I break down what this law actually does, why it's dangerous for both adults AND children, and what you can do to fight back before it's too late. Update! Big tech is suing Texas now!
