Some game devs nominated at The Game Awards can't even afford to attend the ceremony meant to celebrate them.

Meanwhile, retro fans can pre-order the $100 NES revival Xcavatar 2025, shipping Q2 2026.

FUN FACT: Indiana constituents made 6000 calls via 5 Calls to oppose this redistricting bill.

That's the largest number of state-level calls on an issue we have seen this year. 🤓📞🙌
‼️ Indiana Senate VOTED DOWN the redistricting bill by a 19-31 vote!!!

To all the Hoosiers who made calls and made your voices heard... take a bow.

Supergirl ft. Guardians of the Galaxy. The magnificent 'Woman of Tomorrow' comic book is grittier, more imposing and existencial than what this trailer shows, but looking forward to watching the final cut nonetheless.
Look out. #Supergirl lands in theaters June 26.

This is not surprising if you have been following along. For the people currently in power in the US, Russia is not a long-term enemy. The MAGA coalition is made up primarily of people who see China and political Islam as a long-term threat to US hegemony and are acting accordingly.

Via Andrea Tinker: A University of Alabama alumni group has hit a fundraising goal for two student magazines -- one covering women, one covering Black culture and lifestyle -- to resume publication. UA suspended them last week, claiming they ran afoul of the Trump administration's anti-DEI polices.

Oligarchs want YOU to pay for these data centers with higher water & electric bills.
