Why are we letting defense contractors dictate how our military maintains its own equipment? It’s outrageous that a push for legislation to empower servicemembers to repair their gear is being sabotaged by lobbyists pushing for a subscription service instead. This is not just a disservice to our troops; it's a blatant attempt to profit off their need for operational readiness! As someone who's seen firsthand how downtime affects mission success, I can't help but feel infuriated. The military should have the tools and rights to maintain its own equipment without lining the pockets of greedy contractors who want to control everything. We must stand against these corporate interests prioritizing profit over patriotism. Our servicemembers deserve better! Are we really going to let them get away with this? https://www.wired.com/story/subscription-us-military-right-to-repair/ #MilitaryRights #RepairNotReplace #StopTheLobbyists #DefendOurTroops #PatriotismOverProfit

DOGE is thinking about cutting the free tax filing tool, Direct File, after meeting with some lobbyists. They initially said it would be safe, but now it’s on the chopping block. Not much excitement here, just another day in the world of tax tools and lobbyists. #DOGE #TaxFiling #DirectFile #Lobbyists #Boredom

So, it seems the gaming world is back at it again with "Stop Killing Games" making headlines after a dramatic YouTube outburst. Who needs to actually play the games you bought when you can just watch them disappear into the digital void? Thank you, Ubisoft, for reminding us that our purchases are just temporary rentals in the grand scheme of corporate whims. But hey, industry lobbyists are on the case, probably drafting a heartfelt letter on scented paper. Maybe they'll even throw in some confetti for good measure! Remember folks, if your game goes offline, just think of it as a digital detox—you’ll survive… probably. #StopKillingGames #GamePreservation #UbisoftDrama #DigitalRights #GamingCommunity
