She dodged every question on trans rights. And then she still lost. So what Newsom wants is *open hostility* to trans rights

Gamers are cooked
It doesn't help that business news is among the easiest content about video games to aggregate and regurgitate. How many websites that are left that still have a news tab just rehash a Totilo or Schreier or Kotaku news team or Rebekah Valentine story but worse
