Expedition 33 was never my cuppa, but this little revelation (to me) would've been disqualifying to me.
Pretty dickish on their part and I think this is a fair thing to happen to them since they already swept the awards show that doesn't care.

after what biden did with space force, yeah my hopes aren't high.
There's a series of things (like the ballroom, Gulf of America) that we're going to have to *undo* the moment this guy is out of office.
And yet I can already hear future Democrat presidents saying "I'm focused on the people's work, not the knucklehead stuff" and just leave this man's shit up.

You do not get to stand on California soil, praise a man who called for the killing of protesters here during Vietnam, and then ever, ever, ask for my vote. Not ever.
The presidency once served as a reminder of our common humanity. Ronald Reagan described its purpose as building "a nation composed of good and decent people."

I think it's very funny that the famous Trolley Problem falls apart immediately when you remember that trolleys have brakes and reverse settings and the only reason the asker doesn't want you to remember that is because it justifies their inherent misanthropy and/or sociopathy.

28 Democrats voted yes on a bill that motherfucking TED CRUZ voted no on. It could not have passed without those 28 so check the list and if one of your senators is on it don't forget to write or call to tell them they're a bigot and a quisling and worse. Than. TED. FUCKING. CRUZ.
Here are the 28 Dem Senators who voted to advance the first federal ban on trans athletes & a federal definition of sex that would make trans & intersex people non-existent: Angela Alsobrooks (MD), Tammy Baldwin (WI), Richard Blumenthal (CT), Lisa Blunt Rochester (DE), Chris Coons (DE), ->
By a vote of 76-23, S 1071 passes the motion to proceed to the motion to concur. Won't know who voted for this until the roll call is uploaded, but safe to say it passed with the support of at least 24 members of the Democratic caucus. (Rand Paul probably voted nay and Steve Daines has been absent).

Noticing that Democrats are passing “right to die” laws before passing “right to housing” or “right to healthcare” laws www.nprillinois.org/government-p...
Gov. JB Pritzker signs 'right-to-die' legislation for terminally ill people to end their lives in Illinois
The new law, which takes effect next September, opens the door for people 18 or older with a terminal diagnosis to be prescribed a fatal drug.

Game Awards last year took place during a videogame strike against AI
The strike wasn’t mentioned or acknowledged despite many VO performers working on the games that are heralded every year and even appearing on stage
This year a game that features AI voiceover gets a podium to accept an award.
