VirtualBacon, that most sagacious of sages, insists the current shenanigans are no mere echo of past crises. In 2020, the world’s assets performed a synchronized dive into the abyss; in 2021, Bitcoin was already nursing a hangover from its own excesses. Now, while our digital coin totters, stocks and gold are out there waltzing with the devil himself. A curious state of affairs, to be sure.
The saying “Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery” might seem like an excuse for copying, but there’s still something to it. In horror movies, it’s common to see films inspired by earlier works, as the genre constantly evolves by building on what came before. Sometimes this results in uninspired copies, but films like *Scream* and *Get Out* successfully build upon and improve the movies that influenced them. Ideally, a great horror film both honors the past and tries something new, creating a dialogue with the genre’s history.
Everything is looking good for Netflix, except they still haven’t won the Academy Award for Best Picture. They’ve been close many times – films have been early frontrunners, critically acclaimed at festivals, and gained momentum late in the season. In fact, Netflix films have received the most nominations overall four times in the last seven years. However, they haven’t actually won the award yet, while newer competitors like Apple, Neon, and A24 have. Will next year finally be their year?

The five-year period after the Blip allowed some people to heal and start over, while others took advantage of the chaos. Criminal organizations stepped into positions of power, those in exile gained influence, and even everyday people had their lives unexpectedly changed. This pause fundamentally altered careers, relationships, and political strategies throughout the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Chelsey shared a heartfelt video on TikTok announcing the passing of her husband, who died peacefully in his sleep on October 15th. They had been married for 16 years and had three children together.
In recent years, several unions have been established at Blizzard, and Microsoft’s acquisition of the company – completed in 2023 after about two years of work – played a role. Back in 2022, as the roughly $69 billion deal was being finalized, Microsoft signed an agreement promising not to hinder union efforts. This didn’t mean Microsoft would actively *support* unions, only that it wouldn’t stand in the way of their formation. The agreement also made it easier and faster for workers to unionize, bypassing some of the usual procedures with the National Labor Relations Board.
Discussions have intensified among investors following the filing, as it stands out as one of the boldest attempts yet in the crypto ETF world, especially since the SEC has yet to even approve any 3× leveraged crypto products. (Note: The SEC is currently busy redefining the word “no.”)
