serenno and mandalore being in the same neighborhood entertains me greatly as an enjoyer of worldbuilding like
mandalorians are based on multiple historical seafaring peoples. and they're a fairly aggressive warrior culture for the most part, too. surely they fucked with the planets around them. surely they raided and pillaged a little, or maybe even settled.
what i'm getting at is i think it would be funny if serennian and mandalorian royalty were related and count dooku is, idk, satine's 28th cousin thrice removed and will casually drop that in a conversation (and it's not like that's a huge leap of logic either bc all royals are related anyway)
#sprinkling this into my fic#dooku going “you know‚ carannia's eastern district used to be a mandalorian settlement“ while obi-wan is in his castle fighting for his lif#i know for a fact that dooku has tourist guide level knowledge of every location on serenno and will flaunt it unprompted#star wars#count dooku#satine kryze

Minor throwaway sentence in a book on corruption I've just finished was talking about 1930s gangsters and about certain organisations in Chicago which the author stated were more ethnically diverse than the Italian mafia, and whose members were said to have included 'Irish, Welsh, Italian, and Jewish' gangsters.
Now call me sheltered but I've seen MANY Italian American gangsters immortalised in film, I've heard of the Jewish mob, and the police Irish American gangs but I have yet to see a movie about the Welsh mob. As a rule I don't go in for gangster movies but I feel there's an unfilled niche here and also I need more info.
#Might delete this in a bit#On a more serious note given the context of the Great Depression and slumps in the coal mining districts of Britain#I can see why Welsh people who emigrated to America might be form an impoverished immigrant community targeted by organised crime#And possibly my surprise comes from outdated national stereotypes and the fact that popular stereotypes of 1930s gangsters#Rarely include immigrant groups that are largely Protestant (at least in the US- in Glasgow and London it's a different story)#Makes me wonder if all those Catholic Aesthetics that directors who make movies about Italian and Irish mobsters are so fond of#Would play the same with Meredith Davies who may be a crook but at least he regularly attends the Methodist chapel#And is a teetotaller and a fixture in various choirs#Welsh accents are often quite soft too I think I'd be fucking terrified of a Welsh gangster in a movie tbh#To be fair real life organised crime obviously encompassed people from all walks of life I'm more interested in movie depictions here#'More Welsh representation!' 'Ah yes how about as gangsters?' 'Er...'#Less surprised if I come across Scots because eventhough they're privileged in the US English media does seem to view Scottish accents#As threatening so Scots often get roped in to play tough guys and gangsters and villains in all sorts of media#And often they will get an Englishman to play a Scot and Scots to play Eastern Europeans which is also weird#But that's off topic; I am not however used to Welsh villains

CRACUS CITY HALL IN KRASNOGORSKY BURNS AFTER TERRORIST ATTACK KILLS 40 AND WOUNDS OVER 100
📹 Cracus City Hall in the Krasnogorsky District of the Moscow region in the Russian Federation burns after a terrorist attack today killed 40 and wounded over 100 people.
According to reporting on the attack, several unknown assailants burst into Cracus City Hall as the packed theater was settling down before musical show and began firing automatic weapons at the patrons at point-blank range before throwing incendiary weapons which engulfed the theater in flames.
The suspects escaped the terrorist attack in a white Renault sedan. Federal investigations are now under way.
* corrected to reflect musical show instead of "symphony orchestra" as originally published due to an uncertainty in the musical show.

Lovelace never shared this part of her backstory with the crew ‘onscreen’ so it’d be fun if when she goes “I’m going to dismantle Goddard Futuristics” everyone else asks “with another improvised bomb? with your cool alien powers?” and she goes “no, with my dad, who’s a federal judge”
#perpetual ladies night 2k22#wolf 359#he's referred to as a district judge for NYC so PROBABLY#federal district judge for the Eastern district of NY since that includes Brooklyn#from what I've read they're often recommended by a senator before nomination#I like to think that's the same senator who wrote her West Point letter#I'm sure Goddard owns a whole bunch of judges and senators#but they're in disarray and she may know something about working the system#perpetual perpetual ladies night

Opposing Decisions – Does the FTC Have the Authority to Ban Non-Compete Clauses?
In April, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) promulgated a new rule banning non-competes (the Rule); the FTC adopted the Rule to prohibit employers from entering into or enforcing non-compete clauses with workers and senior executives. Several lawsuits were quickly filed challenging the rules. Separate parties filed in Texas (in which cases were consolidated), and ATS Tree Services, LLC, filed an…

Justice Department prosecutors have charged Rep. George Santos with federal offenses, three sources familiar with the matter tell NBC News, the most significant escalation in a growing pile of investigations that have plagued the first-term lawmaker since before he even took office.
One source said that Santos could surrender at the federal courthouse in the Eastern District of New York in the morning, and is expected to make a court appearance on Wednesday afternoon. A congressional source said that Santos learned about the charges on Tuesday. His lawyer has not returned requests for comment.
The New York Republican, who faced legal and political pressure to resign from Congress after he admitted to lying about parts of his background, is the subject of multiple investigations into his finances and other issues.
No court documents associated with the case were immediately available. CNN first reported the pending charges.
In December, two federal law enforcement sources confirmed that federal prosecutors from the Eastern District of New York had opened an investigation into Santos and were examining his finances, including potential irregularities involving financial disclosures and loans he made to his congressional campaign.
Santos did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Santos announced his re-election campaign just last month, despite investigations into a variety of allegations against him in New York state, as well as by the House Ethics Committee.
The House panel announced in early March it had opened a probe into Santos to determine whether he may have "engaged in unlawful activity" while campaigning for Congress or if he "failed to properly disclose required information on statements filed with the House."
The panel also said it would examine whether Santos violated federal conflict-of-interest laws in connection with his role in a firm providing fiduciary services, as well as sexual misconduct allegations against him from a prospective aide.
A Navy veteran who accused Santos of disappearing with thousands of dollars from an online fundraising campaign intended to cover lifesaving surgery for his service dog also said that he spoke to the FBI about his allegations.
The Nassau County district attorney's office said in December that it, too, was looking into “numerous fabrications and inconsistencies” about Santos’ background after The New York Times uncovered a series of inconsistencies about his biography, including his education, work history and financial dealings. The New York State Attorney General’s Office said that same month that it was “looking into a number of issues” surrounding Santos.
While Santos has refused to resign from Congress, he said in late January that he would recuse himself from a pair of assignments on the Small Business and Science committees amid the probes.

For some reason the dream I had last night was double apocalyptic: first there was a huge volcanic eruption (the kind where it exploded) far away but close enough for the shockwave to reach us and then toxic ash fall so everyone was stuck indoors (except I had to take the dogs* out for a walk eventually so they could relieve themselves and one of those dogs being a Rottweiler turned out to be a good thing bc he protecc) but a few hours later it started raining ? Which ok it washed away the ash BUT IT KEPT RAINING and I looked out the window and saw water levels rapidly rising until ground floors were entirely under water (in our house we were currently on the first floor) and it kept rising and the power cut off but I still had mobile phone reception incl 4g and the last I remember before I woke up was checking the news and seeing a map of Europe and it was all water except for a few tall mountain ranges. Like all of it was just gone and we were sitting on the floor at the highest level of our house knowing everything around us for hundreds of km in any direction was also under water
* I don’t have dogs and haven’t since I was 18
#it was only a dream so the Europe under water map was comically wrong#it was like. it followed political borders not geographical ones#brain I don’t know how to break it to you but if all of Denmark is under water THEN SO WOULD SKÅNE BE#neat cut off line along the Eastern European border and Russia.#for some reason Norway and Sweden were not under water#where in Europe was I in my dream? no clue. the view outside my window looked like tradition wooden house district of Finnish type#but I was not in Finland#I’m not sure who I was with either#family I think#but it can’t have been all of them there weren’t enough people#but I had two dogs that part was nice#me this morning: so. should I prepare myself for a natural disaster#or is this just the stress of living in the UK manifesting#you know what I’m going to do today#drink lots of hot chocolate and write some fic
