*December 19 - The third Winking Cat poem highlights tourism company WorldCraft and derides its carefully-designed entertainment experiences as hollow compared to the real thrill of exploring the galaxy first-hand.

*December 20 - ACT unmasks the identity of NMLA leader Theta Seven, revealing he was a former Imperial citizen named John Tyburn from the city of Fontaine on planet Baltah'Sine in the Baltah'Sine system. Tyburn originally worked as a maker of demolitions charges for commerical mining. After becoming a pro-democracy activist, Tyburn was stripped of his job, his citizenship, and his family, and was convicted of sedition. The NMLA recruited him as a bombmaker when he was released from prison, and his skills allowed him to rise rapidly through the ranks. Eventually, Tyburn proposed weaponizing Thargoid enzymes in bombs to damage starports, leading to the NMLA commissioning a bomb design from Liz Ryder and then embarking on its campaign of starport bombings in September 3306. | *December 20 - ACT unmasks the identity of NMLA leader Theta Seven, revealing he was a former Imperial citizen named John Tyburn from the city of Fontaine on planet Baltah'Sine in the Baltah'Sine system.
