So DEI now just means the job went to a non-white, non-GOP, not-male person.

Convenient.

“Williams held the position for over two years and was involved in some of the company’s biggest highs and lows, with her tenure seeing the release of the D&D film Honor Among Thieves and the blockbuster video game Baldur’s Gate 3, as well as ushering in a wave of fan backlash following the OGL scandal.”

They had little to nothing to do with BG3. The development process of a movie, including approving of a screenplay, takes longer than two years, leaving her responsible for…

Oh. Yeah.

The reason I abandoned the company. Or at least one of the avalanche of reasons.

And preferably, name someone who has announced their candidacy.

A list of people you’d like in the job isn’t as relevant. I would’ve accepted almost any of the names people had floated, had any of them publicly shown interest.

But here we are with people often demanding Jon Stewart and Michelle Obama throw their hats in the ring, and that’s two people who keep saying they aren’t interested.

Edit: the shit people downvote here.

My vet tech wife thinks it abcesses from an older dog bite. She believes there would be more damage from a gunshot.

But an abcess would be a round, symmetrical wound and if it was from a bite it explains why there would be another on the other side. There should also be scabs next to the abcesses from the other two canine teeth.

Kevin Spacey, Woody Harrelson, Rob Schneider, Jeremy Piven, Russell Brand, Bobby Lee, and Tony Robbins are all pitching in for RFK.

It’s a veritable ‘Who’s Who?’ of ‘Him? Really?’

Fuck you, Manchin. Burn in the deepest pit of whatever hell you believe in. You know you’ve earned it.

I have never been a Facebook user so I’m mostly guessing.

But I think there was a heyday where people spent a great deal of time on there.

Now they don’t. They just log on when it’s needed to get ahold of someone or check a specific niche community.

Thus it’s dying because the ad revenue is way down. It’s in decline not because it lacks users, but because they no longer spend hours there.

Actually the thought is if the government can just imprison you to stop your candidacy, they have too much power.

Thus they can continue to run.

Until there are some kind of real penalties for submitting unconstitutional legislation, we will not be able to stop these clowns from abusing our state legislatures.
