This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful.
Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened.
This is exactly what’s wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.

Internet and publishing issues aside, I got the chance to review the ASUS ROG Xbox Ally X over the last week and decided to take the angle of casually daily driving it out of the box.
I really enjoyed my time with the system, despite some clear issues.

Well, as of last Friday, Esports on SI has ceased operations, meaning I have no home for my work in the lead up to Pokémon Legends: Z-A (and beyond.)
I am currently looking for full-time employment, but I am now open to some new freelance work if anyone knows pubs looking for an extra hand.
