The removal of 2024 VGC World Champion Luca Ceribelli from Worlds for helping a disabled friend navigate crowd barriers proves why real accessibility matters.
Corporate brands love to talk about community, but the actual infrastructure fails vulnerable people every day.

I stopped by @NYCParks’ family camping program at Inwood Hill Park on Friday. We made s’mores, talked about s’mores, and learned how to build a fire (for s’mores).

Family camping is just one of the Urban Park Rangers’ many free outdoor programs. Check the schedule at https://t.co/8p9goHPF1C for more details.

These days its becoming harder and harder to be in a positive mood. I do all I can but theres always something that brings me and holds me down. Talking about it only exhausts me and it seems that pity attention is all there is to gain from opening up

I hate how desensitised I am from these kids being assaulted by their own parents on camera. It for sure is a fucky situation but I've seen way more go on for way less and to me that's just the norm of black households

It was an honor to host Caribbean New Yorkers from every island for an annual celebration of their culture — a culture that has helped make New York the greatest city in the world.

We will continue to uplifting and supporting our Caribbean communities from Flatbush to Richmond Hill to Canarsie through small business reforms, faster buses, affordable child care, and leadership positions in our administration.

The banana in your kitchen is a sterile mutant that can't reproduce. Every single one is a clone, and nearly the entire global export supply traces back to one plant raised in an English greenhouse in the 1830s.

Wild bananas are stuffed with hard seeds the size of peppercorns. Barely any flesh. Around 7,000 years ago, farmers in New Guinea stumbled on rare mutants carrying three sets of chromosomes instead of two. An odd number can't split evenly during reproduction, so seed-making fails and the plant pours everything into flesh. Those tiny black specks in the middle of your banana are the remains of seeds that never developed.

Perfect fruit, one catch. No seeds means no planting. Growing another one requires cutting a shoot off the base and sticking it in the ground.

A clone.

Back in the 1830s, the Duke of Devonshire's gardener raised one of these plants at Chatsworth House. His family name was Cavendish. Cuttings descended from that greenhouse now make up 99% of bananas exported on Earth, genetically identical from Ecuador to the Philippines.

Identical genes means a fungus that kills one plant kills all of them. And it already happened. Gros Michel, the banana everyone ate before 1960, was wiped out commercially by a soil fungus called Panama disease. The industry quietly swapped in the Cavendish, a lookalike that resisted it, and most shoppers never noticed their banana had been replaced.

A new strain called TR4 kills Cavendish too. No cure exists, the spores survive in soil for decades, and it has spread to more than 20 countries. Late 2025 it reached Ecuador, the world's biggest exporter.

The world already lost its banana once and got handed a body double. The body double is dying the same way.

can i honestly yap, its so upsetting when poc cosplayers get so much hate and racism when cosplaying SOLELY because of their skin colour, prime example is this creator because oh my god he has such beautiful cosplays and the amount of hate he gets upsets me so much
