Some ya’ll who are younger need to google Frank Serpico and read about his time in the NYPD and what the cops did to him and attempted to do to him up until the late 90′s. He literally had to go into hiding in Italy and Switzerland and multiple times people tried to kill him. He only came back to America after the mafia (who hated the NYPD a lot, obviously) said “you’re under our protection.”
Damn, NYPD is so bad, Mafia started protecting good cops

Time Sensitive- Apply before August 25th, 2023 (8/25/23)!
Filing a claim takes less than ten minutes, and can be done HERE
Excerpt from article:
Anyone in the U.S. who used Facebook in the last 16 years can now collect a piece of a $725 million settlement by parent company Meta tied to privacy violations — as long as they fill out a claim on a website set up to pay out money to the social network’s users.
The settlement stems from multiple lawsuits that were brought against Facebook by users who claimed that the company improperly shared their data with third-party sources such as advertisers and data brokers. The litigation began after Facebook was embroiled in a privacy scandal in 2018 with Cambridge Analytica, which scraped user data from the site as part of an effort to profile voters.
Meta denied any liability or wrongdoing under the settlement, according to the recently created class-action website. However, the agreement means that U.S. residents who used Facebook between May 24, 2007, and December 22, 2022, can file a monetary claim as long as they do so before August 25, 2023.
Please reblog to signal boost this! As many people as possible should know about this to make their claim, if you don’t do anything you don’t get anything. It takes less than ten minutes to file and pick your payment option including pay/pal and ven/mo .
Yes this is real. And there’s less than 300 million American facebook accounts, over half of which probably aren’t even active and not all of which are gonna do this. You could maybe get enough out of this for one alright meal! That’s free food! Get your free food money!!!
giving y'all a small update. i went in today and saw my twt account was suspended for no goddamn reason.
idk if it was me literally only rt-ing a bunch of portfolio day art or what but idk if they’re ever gonna give me my account back.
if any of you follow me on twt and suddenly see I’m unavailable as a user, this is why. it wasn’t me deleting my account or anything. it’s because twitter has chosen to lock me out for rt-ing portfolio day art.
I’ll say it here rather than burying it in various tags again:
Always remember that the people hoarding the money can make the strike stop at any time.
And they, the studios and streaming services, want you to forget that their profit hoarding is the problem. They’re the reason this is happening, not the writers and actors.
You can’t see that movie you wanted because a studio is clutching a fistful of nickels. They can afford to pay writers and actors–large collectives of not-famous workers–something even a little bit closer to fairly. But they are determined not to, with the cruelest resolve. An unnamed executive said, and I quote exactly this time, “The endgame is to allow things to drag on until [writers’] union members start losing their apartments and losing their houses.”
Having your own personal blog is honestly quite a nice change of pace compared to Reddit. I could put a funny GIF of George Bush getting hit by a shoe on here and the worse case scenario is that no one even notices.
You put that on a big subreddit and you get your eyes gouged out and a heap of political discourse underneath your post.
My Wife is Going to Kill Me (or, mundane themes in Scion)
Running a story in the world of Scion is normally thought of to be one where you enter the underworld looking for a lost artifact – or battle an Ōmagatoki at twilight to stop it from releasing thousands of evil spirits onto San Francisco. But this is not where the story of a Scion starts. In fact, the first book for Scion, Origin, is mostly free of such supernatural threats. Oh, there are tinges…
