All of us at Marvel Studios are deeply saddened by the passing of Sir Patrick Stewart. Sir Patrick brought Professor Charles Xavier to life with extraordinary grace, intelligence, and humanity, defining the character for generations of fans, from "X-Men" to "Logan" to "Avengers: Doomsday." He was a singular talent, a generous collaborator, and a true gentleman. Our hearts go out to his wife Sunny, his children, his friends, and the countless fans around the world whose lives he touched with his art.
karina was nervous doing the wedding speech that she accidentally interchanged her words and said "congratulations on your sincerity of marriage" instead of "we sincerely congratulate you on your marriage"
Selena Gomez via Instagram Stories: “Eu não vou conseguir mudar a minha voz.
Eu usei muito vape com nicotina e, só para todo mundo saber, a nicotina é muito difícil de parar.
Acho que eu só queria dizer que, se você está passando por isso ou se está até pensando em começar a usar vape, simplesmente não vale a pena.
É uma coisa tão idiota, e isso mudou a minha voz. Então, se vocês não gostam de ouvir a minha voz, é totalmente compreensível. Eu não me importo. Simplesmente não escutem.
Mas eu estou muito animada porque consegui parar, e só espero conseguir continuar assim. É muito difícil, mas sei que, se você também está passando por alguma dificuldade, pode conseguir superar isso. É péssimo.”
A U.S. congressman wants to change how we legally “own” video games.
Rep. Ritchie Torres has announced plans to introduce the Power To The Players Act, a bill that would direct the FTC to create rules protecting consumers who buy video games.
The proposal would give players three basic rights:
>The right to own the games they purchase, rather than simply receiving a revocable license
>The right to keep playing games after online servers are shut down, through an offline mode
>The right to transfer or resell games they own
Torres argues that if a company can take a game away simply by shutting down its servers, then the consumer didn’t really buy the game in the first place.
Torres also hopes the legislation could eventually establish a precedent for ownership rights across other parts of the digital economy:
“If you pay for it, you own it.”
US Representative Ritchie Torres from New York City announced that he will introduce the “Power To The Players Act” citing that digital video games are a rental disguises as a sale🚀
He explained: "When you pay for a game, you should own it.
Consumers must have the right to own, the right to play, and the right to transfer the games they buy.
A game that can be taken away the moment a company pulls the plug is not a purchase. It is a rental disguised as a sale.”
If it is passed into law, the bill will protect our ability to own and play purchased games.

It’s about time the firm hand of the law took a stand towards the normalized exploitation of gamers under the excuse of “the company has the right to revoke access at any time for any reason without compensation” and actually preserved players’ rights to own the games they buy, and to be compensated in case said game was removed or account was disabled.
There can never be full trust in digital games when you aren’t even able to own what you’re buying.
In any case, physical media must be preserved, because it will always be the only and most reliable way to play games and have agency over their usage, and they must contain the ENTIRE game, whether on one disc and four even.

American teacher breaks down into tears because teaching American elementary school students has become so hard
🚨 She says she only has 1 student out of 34 kids who passed
She says it’s gotten so bad, “I literally put the word on the board. I write it on the board and I say copy it, and they're copying it wrong — it's almost scary because you're like, dude — then you start questioning yourself. You're like, is it me? Like, what?
— I'm exhausted”
“I’m exhausted — like, there's some days that I like doing it, but man, to do that every single day it's exhausting — Breaks my heart”
She extremely frustrated because she knows by the way the students are performing that their parents are not doing what they are supposed to be doing with their kids
It comes down to the parents. Our education system and parents are failing our kids. I remember going to school and everyone had to behave, everyone had to learn and do the work to pass, you weren’t even given an option
We have gotten too soft and there needs to be punishments and accountability again

Nintendo announced that they have NO PLANS to end physical game releases🚀
“We have no plans to abandon physical media. We know how much fans also enjoy it.”
What a BASED move being on the right side of history, standing with players!
Now it’s your turn XBOX, and Sony to overturn you decision to end physical media.
Physical games have great demand due to various merits, and they have a place in the future of gaming, the same way Blu-Ray films, music CDs and vinyl and printed books continue to exist.
