Oh boy, the U.S. labor market is throwing a tantrum. The unemployment rate soared to 4.6% in November-yeah, the highest since September 2021, or as I like to call it, “the good old days when everything was mildly less terrifying.” Official figures show folks are getting laid off faster than you can say “recession,” and everyone’s eyebrows are raised in that “uh-oh” way.
You can only find Candleberries when the ‘Cold Snap’ weather event is active. This event happens on all maps except Stella Montis, meaning you’ll have plenty of opportunities to search for them.

The sequel to the popular 2019 film Joker, titled Joker: Folie Ă Deux, is now streaming on Prime Video. Directed by Todd Phillips, the movie generated a lot of buzz before its release, but audiences had very different reactions to it.
It’s a real shame to see Splitgate 2 kind of fall by the wayside. I was really excited about it when it came out in May – the developers seemed so confident they had something special. They were clearly aiming for that classic arena shooter feel, like the Halo and Titanfall games I grew up with, which I loved. But honestly, it felt a bit confused. They tried to chase current trends, like adding battle royale stuff and using modern monetization, and it just didn’t quite click for me. It felt like it couldn’t decide if it wanted to be a nostalgic throwback or a modern shooter.
The game ‘Horses,’ which contains mature themes, is facing criticism as part of a larger debate about acceptable content in media and gaming.
