There's a conservative blogger on Facebook Matt Walsh who has made putting up with FB bs almost worth it for me. Yesterday, he posted a disturbing article from The Blaze with the caption:
"It's been announced that schools in Charlotte will no longer be using the terms "boy" and "girl." They've adopted a new gender fluid policy that allows students ( Read more... )

So, I know this is pretty small beans compared to some of the scandals that are currently being investigated, but I thought I would share some tech news. So a new Xbox, Xbox One, is coming out and it is essentially everything I despise about the latest trends in gaming (required internet connection, can't share games with friends or play used games ( Read more... )
