Drooling with excitement that the fall Steam Sale is this week. I'm out of games! (If you ignore my ginormous backlog)

Wow!
Holy cow. This may not be a permanent victory, but my god it’s a victory!

Omni hasn’t flown for ICE for months. And I heard there was a big layoff last week. Now we can say for certain it was due to the negotiations between Stonepeak and the Chicago alders.

Deal Reached to Sell Chicago Parking Meters to Investment Firm, Alderpeople Say
The deal requires Stonepeak to sell Omni Air International, which has a contract with the Trump administration to carry out deportations, according to the City Council members.

Guys, Maria Bariromo has fallen! I repeat, Maria Bariromo has fallen.

Fox News announces that she is out, effective immediately. “We thank Maria for her work over the last 12 ½ years and wish her all the best on her next chapter.”

No other explanation given.

Does anyone see anything on my gaming backlog list that I need to play ASAP? I'm kind of running out of steam (no pun intended) and I need something fun. #gamer #gaymer #gaming

Its so cool that he keeps trying to tank Republican chances like this
Trump: "The only reason that communities should not want Data Centers is if they want to end up being backwards and poor. ... The good news is that there are plenty of other places that want them. If we kill the Golden Goose, you will only have yourselves to blame."
