So my cousin is still playing Starfield. He's the type that just likes a Bethesda brainsink.
But anyway he's doing some quest where he's trying to get some milk and eggs. Regular grocery shopping! Well, he's totally lost. He's looking around all over hell and back and finally reaches out to his buddies who tell him "Dude, go to the grocery store."
Apparently there's a grocery store!
It's located near the housing!
Dude's just American enough he never thought they'd put a shop near the residential areas. To quote his reaction to me pointing it out:
"Holy shit, even fucking space is more walkable than America."
Outstanding.
that's right, news has continued to occur and I wrote about like, a lot of it lately. here's some highlights from this week and a few from earlier this month:
Senator Diane Feinstein is dead at 90, and whoo boy does she leave behind a complicated legacy. Leaving aside whether she should have retired last term, her moderate record on just about every issue made her one of the country's most frustrating liberals: she gained support in the last decade as a staunch LGBTQ+ rights defender, even though she was also once responsible for things like undercover bathhouse raids targeting queer men. The only inarguable truth: there's now a big power vacuum in the Democratic party.
In judicial victory news, Texas' anti-drag law was ruled unconstitutional and Montana's drag ban was blocked pending trial.
Part of the reason the U.S. government might shut down soon is that Republicans kept trying to shove anti-LGBTQ+ provisions into the defense appropriations bill. Very cool, necessary, functional system we have here.
Some Republican candidates also voiced support for federal bans on gender-affirming medical care during the second GOP debate this week, as you probably expected. Who needs robust public policy when you can simply demonize the queers?
As a palate cleanser, Hozier unfurled a fan's "Protect Trans Kids" pride flag on stage while singing "Take Me to Church" to raucous cheers from the audience. nobody is more daddy, except maybe EFFY.
and that's the news! nothing else happened! you're free!
thanks for reading tgirl journalism!
