Horses Is Tame
Horses, the indie game that is too scandalous for either Valve or Epic, is only beyond the pale if you're not familiar with any other art form.

Working link at the top of the comments. ALWAYS be cynical of paid services claiming to help Vets… they’re almost always charging you for something NPOs or the VA itself (if pushed) does for free.
A Florida-based company is charging military veterans as much as $20,000 for help with disability claims, even though the VA has said that may be illegal and the service should be free. But so far nobody's stopping the company and others like it. n.pr/4awb0jo

I have been actively watching contracts and surge funding over the last few days and what I would say to my friends in Baltimore is “be absolutely ready, right now.”

Reports of ICE ads on #Spotify were noted in early October. People began calling for boycotts immediately.
Now, nearly a month later Spotify is seeing major losses.

Ahead of the Trump administration's "historic" announcement on autism today, remember, RFK Jr. knows startingly little about autism.
In fact, his views amount to a "rabbit hole filled with pseudoscience about the condition, near complete ignorance about current research and basic facts."
