I sometimes get people asking what game one of my screenshots is of, but the title is usually there in the alt-text! I often click on other people's alts for more info as well. It's useful! <3

Not sure why your reasoning deserves the benefit of the doubt when you've projected so much onto Gandy here.
So you assert an obligation of enthusiasm for a corrupt institution? Just since we're putting words in people's mouths today.

An ICE agent shot and killed Ruben Ray Martinez, a US citizen and San Antonio resident, in March 2025. Then ICE and the Texas Department of Public Safety covered it up. He was 23 years old. I am calling for a full investigation into this shooting, including why there was an 8-month cover up.

20.02.2026 16:12 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0Wikipedia entry for dinkus In typography, a dinkus is a typographic device or convention that typically consists of three spaced asterisks or bullet symbols in a horizontal row, e.g. ∗ ∗ ∗ or • • • . The device has a variety of uses, and it usually denotes an intentional omission or a logical "break" of varying degree in a written work. This latter use is similar to a subsection, and it indicates that the subsequent text should be re-contextualized. Such a dinkus typically appears centrally aligned on a line of its own with vertical spacing before and after the device. The dinkus has been in use in various forms since c. 1850.[1][2] Historically, the dinkus was often represented as an asterism, ⁂, though this has fallen out of favor and is now nearly obsolete.
perennial reminder that this typographic thing:

is called a "dinkus"
