🇬🇧 BOE Backpedals on Stablecoin Caps: Crypto Exchanges Rejoice! 🤑

by

The Bank of England (BOE), that old guardian of pounds and pence, is apparently having a change of heart-or perhaps just a change of mind, thanks to a chorus of critics louder than a flock of crows at dawn. 🦅 Their initial plan? To cap stablecoin holdings at a measly $26,695 (£20,000) for individuals and $13.4 million for businesses. But the crypto crowd wasn’t having it, clucking and fussing like hens in a coop. 🐔 Now, the BOE’s reportedly granting exemptions, lest the U.K.’s crypto firms fly the coop for greener pastures abroad. 🌱

Nick Gehlfuss Talks Chicago Med’s 200th Episode Paying A ‘Wonderful Homage’ To The Series Premiere, And I Can’t Wait For Will’s Parallels To Connor

by

Episode 200, titled “A Game of Inches,” hints at a disruptive patient causing problems at the hospital. Given this, and the fact that Nick Gehlfuss is returning to *Med* for the first time since his character, Will Halstead, found happiness with Natalie, it seems his return will be anything but quiet. His reappearance in the milestone 200th episode isn’t a coincidence – expect some drama!

Ubisoft Canceled Civil War-Based Assassin’s Creed Over Controversy Concerns – Report

by

So, I heard about this game they unfortunately canceled, and it sounded *amazing*. You’d play as a Black man who escapes slavery and tries to build a new life, but then he gets pulled into the world of the Assassins. The really cool part? He goes *back* to the South to fight against groups like the Ku Klux Klan. It would have been a really powerful story, honestly.

When Exactly Does One Battle After Another Take Place?

by

Ever since *One Battle After Another* came out, people have been debating when it actually takes place! It’s tricky because the way the French 75 acts – all rebellious and underground – feels like something out of the 1960s counterculture. But the very beginning, where Perfidia meets Bob, they fall in love, she gets arrested, escapes, and has Willa before vanishing, *isn’t* set that far back. I mean, you clearly see smartphones when Perfidia’s arrested! The movie’s loosely based on Thomas Pynchon’s *Vineland*, which connects the 60s radicals to the 80s yuppies, but *One Battle* isn’t set in the 80s either. It’s a real puzzle!

Baby Steps Punishes You In The Funniest Way If You Skip Too Many Cutscenes

by

Okay, so I heard about this crazy thing in Baby Steps. Apparently, if you skip a bunch of cutscenes, the game *rewards* you with this super long, 28-minute cutscene. It’s not exactly a reward for everyone though – it’s full of weird, self-aware jokes and the conversation just jumps around all over the place. Someone named Cuttyflame posted it on YouTube, and PC Gamer picked it up, so it’s making the rounds. It’s… something, that’s for sure!
