  • What they’re not telling you is that this is already effecting more than the federal workforce. My company began layoffs this week as our grants are now being cut. Whole departments laid off and client services terminated. If I lose my job, I probably won’t be finding another in my field because this is happening nationwide. My entire career is on the line right now, something I’ve spent the past 20 years building.

    Moreover, my clients are getting screwed as well… We’re talking people who don’t have the ability to work, no income other than social security, and who barely have the insight to understand why. They’re either going back to the hospital, until the hospital’s funding gets cut, or out on the street.

    We’re all fucked because of this.

    Partly because these people are sending a message that goes beyond the owner of the car.

    At the same time, the owner of the truck is openly showing their support of Musk and Trump by driving it. While I don’t condone ruining people’s lives, if you’re going to openly support fascism, the suffering of our people, the stripping away of our freedoms, the dissolution of our legal system, the raping of our economy, and the destruction of our nation, then perhaps you deserve to feel just a little more than uncomfortable… like the rest of us…

    Just FYI, there are a number of controllers out there for people who only have the use of one hand that are relatively cheap. I don’t always have the use of both hands, and I can definitely say that it’s possible to learn to use regular controllers effectively one handed as well. Both the Logitech F710 and the 8Bitdo Pro 2 work really well in my opinion. People have laughed at me, but the 8bitdo Zero 2 surprisingly works really well too, but is much more limited for inputs and thus, more suited to retro games.
