Slowly realizing that Sun Tzu’s Art of War was mostly basic-ass advice and logistics because most warmongers are failsons that NEED to be explained “no, really, you need to feed your troops.”
Some Guard Troops Won't Get Paid Until Shutdown Ends The National Guard Bureau says most units are postponing drills during the shutdown, but some states are sticking to their training schedule, resulting in a patchwork of different policies and some confusion in the ranks.

GO COMMENT

www.regulations.gov/docket/FTC-2...
"Today, the Federal Trade Commission launched a public inquiry to better understand how consumers may have been exposed to false or unsupported claims about “gender-affirming care”, especially as it relates to minors, and to gauge the harms consumers may be experiencing. In a Request for Information, the FTC encourages members of the public to comment on any issues or concerns that are relevant to the FTC’s consideration of this topic, including by submitting any written data, advertisements, social media posts, disclosures, or empirical research. The public will have 60 days to submit comments at Regulations.gov, no later than September 26, 2025. Once submitted, comments will be posted to Regulations.gov. Individuals wishing to submit confidential, non-public comments should reference the alternative submission guidelines in the RFI."

We need to start speaking up- no- YELLING to support and defend trans people.

If you're in the USA, call your legislators. Literally email and call your representatives.

Cis people have the loudest voices right now and those voices MUST be used to protect trans people.

I'm seeing fewer posts about the Visa and Mastercard situation, and I want to make it plain as day. You need to keep calling and bothering them and losing them money.

Because if we lose this, they are going to cut more and more from what's available until you can only buy what they approve of.

Spoke with an anon source who had an interesting insight into Visa policy. Per a convo with their bank on the Steam/itchio situation today, Visa put new restrictions into place due to a new "government policy." The exact phrase used by Visa. No specific country was listed as the source of the policy

"But I don't share porn or look at porn or make anything pornographic so it won't affect me"

Until they decide something you DO make or consume is "obscene" and they go after that too. Namely literally ANY queer content... also, looking at you Entire Furry Fandom.

We should ALL be angry about this

This bill would criminalize pornography by legally redefining what it means to be obscene.

Period. Full stop. No more porn legally. If you post porn whether free pics or paid vids. this affects you!

This means Mastercard in particular is actively afraid of people bringing up Riot's connection to them negatively.

I think people should raid Riot's official livestreams and start spamming things like:

"#SaveSpeech from Mastercard!"
"MASTERCARD HATES THIS --> (.)(.)"
"#stopkillinggames"

and more

SCREEN ACT: -full age verification. (biometric scans, ID uploads, background checks) -Deeply unsafe for personal and data privacy. Security/data breaches are rampant, and uploading so much sensitive data to every single we site is just asking for mass ID theft. -id verification is much, much harder on small websites than larger ones, creating a chilling effect and stifling speech for anyone that isnt a massive corporation -draw comparison to UK's OSA [online safety act] and the backlash it is receiving KOSA: -creates "duty of care,” meaning that tech companies and platform giants would be required to take steps to prevent potentially harmful encounters, such as posts about eating disorders and instances of online bullying, from impacting minors. -who gets to decide what is or is not "unsafe for minors"? Especially under the current administration -it will block access to important info minors could use to keep themselves safe or advocate for themselves. Ex: sex ed. -the vague nature of the bill will almost certainly be used to target LGBT content under the guise of "protecting children"

An info-graph regarding this post:

#Twitch #VSky #MeltTheICE #NoICE
An infograph meme quoting a moment from the movie "The Incredibles". There is black text that reads: Alright, listen closely. I'd like to help you with the ads, but I can't. I'd like to tell you to click on the gear icon and select "Report Playback Issue". But I can't. I also do not advise you to select anything related to how the advertisement is offensive or inappropriate; I wouldn't expect Twitch to do something about the ICE ads if they get flooded with enough reports. Below, there are images that are as follows: From left to right, top to bottom. Mr Incredible whispering to an old lady in an office building. A screenshot of Twitchs' Settings menu with "Report Playback Issue" highlighted. A close-up of Mr Incredible whispering. A screenshot of Twitchs' Report Playback Issue menu with a dropdown menu containing options.
