Friendly reminder that any Five Nights at Freddy's property benefits its creator, who made Christian video games early in his career and is a regular (now quite rich) donor to Republican causes and politicians. So maybe don't spend your money on any of that shit this weekend. Or, you know, ever.

Dear U.K. Labour. The fact that VPNs can easily bypass large parts of the Online Safety Act is *not* a reason to ban VPNs. It’s a reason to rethink the Online Safety Act.
We did tell you. Many times.
Don’t throw good money after bad.

Why are these items out of stock or available in low quantities? I've tried other brands of incense, but their patchouli is disappointing.

Pass it on to anyone you're concerned might be targeted by an ICE raid, friends. Or to anyone standing up to these thugs for others.

Multiple companies are discontinuing their blu ray and 4K players.
In addition to the obvious, devastating implications for film preservation, it illustrates once again that the ultra-rich will not be happy until everything in our lives is subscription-based. A landlord for every need.

The government could have finally brought Royal Mail into public ownership.
It sold it to a Czech billionaire instead.
We are being ripped off. It’s time to put Royal Mail back where it belongs: in public hands.
