Dynamax Adventure in Pokémon Sword/Shield is fun... until one gets two Shiny Pokémon in a single run, because only one of them can be kept...

Fortunately the ones I've got are both rubbish so I don't mind missing one

(I took Bouffalant, because Kadabra is in Legends: Arceus (and also rubbish))

Important update Thanks to the sheer volume of citizens raising their voices in opposition, the Danish Presidency has been forced to update its Chat Control compromise text to include the following recital:
 "(17a) Nothing in this Regulation should be understood as imposing any detection obligations on providers." 
 The final proposal 15318/25 containing recital 17a is now heading for Coreper (Committee of Permanent Representations). Once approved, the position formally adopted by Council will thus exclude mandatory scanning. Council is expected to officially adopt its position the 18th or 19th. We should then expect trilogue to commence. Next steps While this presents a “quick fix” in response to public pressure that legally is not a good solution, it is a much better position than before and one that can be worked with. The multiple flaws and inconsistencies that remain (e.g. mandatory age verification effectively outlawing anonymous communication and planned “voluntary” mass scanning) can be amended during trilogue with the European Parliament. While Danish Minister of Justice and Chief Architect of Chat Control Peter Hummelgaard, and Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen, are likely to attempt an expedited process, a deal is unlikely to be reached in December. They will likely try to complete the deal in Q1 of 2026. As negotiations commence, contact your MEPs and let them know how you would like them to vote and protect your codified rights to privacy.

HOW TO CONTACT WHAT TO DO Card MASTERCARD + VISA Visa and Mastercard have long histories with pressuring platforms that host and sell adult content. Most recently, they have pressured Steam and Itch.io, leading to dozens if not hundreds of games being delisted, and their TOS now updated with draconian content standards. MASTERCARD (US) +1 (800)-307-7309 phone tree nav: 1-1-2-2-2-1 (INTL) +1 (636)-722-7111 VISA (US + CAN) +1 (800)-847-2911 phone tree nav: 1-1-5. mash account #. Your goal is mostly to waste their time and therefore their money. Pose as a confused customer "just asking for clarification" about things relating to the Itch/Steam censorship controversy. Paypro PAYPAL + STRIPE Paypal and Stripe have their own histories with action against adult content. Like the credit card companies, they have both pressured Steam and Itch.io, with Itch calling out Stripe as a priority target, and Steam no longer being able to process certain currencies using Paypal. PAYPAL (US + CAN) 1-(402)-935-2050 (AUS) 1800 931 678 (GER) +49 69 945189975 STRIPE (Ireland HQ) 353 1 903 8449 (Cust. Support) (877) 887-7815 +1 (888) 926 2289 (say you are in california) Same as the CARDS. Waste time, waste money, eventually try to segue into censorship of adult content as a topic. CITIBANK Bank + BARCLAYS + WELLS FARGO Both Paypal and Stripe have indicated that their banking partners have also been a source of ant- Adult Content pressure. While there are MANY banks associated with paypros, these 3 are prime initial targets. CITIBANK (ENG) 1-(888)-248-4226 (ESP) 1-(800)-360-2484 BARCLAYS 44 (0)1624 684444 +800 800 88885 (replace [+) with country's exit code WELLS FARGO 1-800-869-3557 For now, begin by treating banks the same as how the CARDS and PAYPROS were early on.

Execs always claim bloated budgets increase retail prices. This is a lie.

They will always increase prices to whatever they think they can get away with. Always have, always will. AI is merely a new get-richer-quicker scheme.

And execs will never admit the most bloated costs… are themselves.

The biggest fuck you of #ChatControl is how it imposes mass surveillance on every European... Except the politicians proposing it. Oh no, their own privacy is important and worth protecting, but the plebs need to be monitored at all times "for their own good"! Slimy pieces of shit, the lot of them

I wrote up a quick template script that you can use as a base for calling your EU representatives about #ChatControl

A template script to use for calling the MEPs of your country about #ChatControl. Phone numbers can be found at fightchatcontrol.eu — translate this message to your own language for maximum effect! It requires a bit of effort to track down the correct translated names and terms in your language, but it should maximize the impact with your representatives. Hello, [name] here. I am trying to reach [representative] regarding an urgent and important matter. (Yesterday,) on the 12th of November, the Law Enforcement Working Party of the Council of European Union approved the revised Chat Control legislation brought forward by the Danish Presidency, despite vocal disapproval from the European populace across the board. This legislation essentially forces internet service providers to spy on all digital communications of all European citizens, including encrypted communications like Whatsapp chats for example. The same legislation also denies people their right to privacy on the internet by forcing them to identify via age verification before accessing services on the internet, endangering the work and life of several groups of professionals as well as people in general. This catastrophically bad legislation most likely violates the EU’s own GDPR, as well as the constitution of [our country]. (note: check to make sure this is accurate with your country) As such, I would like to make it clear that [our country]’s representatives must do everything they can do to stop this privacy-destroying “Big Brother is watching” legislation. The rights of all EU citizens are in danger, and now is the time to act.
