The gimmick? Every bullet has a unique effect. Red bullets ricochet off walls, and yellow bullets home in on the nearest enemy. After you shoot, the bullets hang in the air as glowing trails and they can be fused midair to create devastating combinations.

A reminder that all the money in the world cannot add a moment to your life. The money, houses, companies, and all your possessions go quickly to someone else. The only thing you carry into eternity is what you did with your life.
31 “When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, he will sit on his glorious throne. 32 All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate the people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. 33 He will put the sheep on his right and the goats on his left.
44 “They also will answer, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you?’
45 “He will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.’
46 “Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life.”
Matthew 25:31-46

Despite at one time being the microbrew capital of the country, since Covid the city has seen a 10-15% drop in the number of people drinking. This follows a national trend of people giving up alcohol.
When places are charging $15-20 for a drink, and $10 for a pint, it’s no wonder so many breweries in Portland are closing.
Local film studio Laika’s new movie Wildwood is set to arrive in theaters on October 23, 2026.

1 in 5 new diagnoses of colorectal cancer now occur in people under 50, and 4 out of 5 of those are sadly not detected until it’s reached advanced stages (stage 2, 3, or 4). Colon cancer screening age has dropped to 45 due to the dramatic increase in rates – but many much younger people need to be aware of the easily identifiable symptoms.
Why? Because Kalei Martin is 28 and had been experiencing a lot of symptoms that should have been red flags for cancer. Sadly, her doctors didn’t recognize it until it had already spread. She was young, healthy, and it was chalked up to changes due to pregnancy and other health issues. But in reality – the signs were very clear.
Sadly, by the time someone did recognize the symptoms, she had stage 2 rectal cancer (T3 tumor) and, one year later, stage 4 with metastasis to her lungs (creating a 13-20% 5 year survival rate).
Her story is becoming increasingly common; and many doctors don’t even think of checking because young healthy people shouldn’t have cancer.
It’s worth listening to how what she thought was simple symptoms were actually progression of disease.
She (like me) also learned you need to be a strong advocate for yourself and ensure your doctors are getting you in for tests and treatments that will give you the best chances of survival.
Sadly, her cancer had already spread and it became Stage 4 just a year later. Still, there seems to be good prognosis based on her most recent video:
I never knew Stalin’s daughter, Svetlana Allileyua, defected from the Soviet Union – and then gave a interview. It’s a powerful reminder that despite many shortcomings – people under communist rule through the 20th century lived under some of the most horrific, oppressive governments in history.
This is how hacking/cracking games used to work back in the old DOS days when all of memory is available in a flat structure and you could look at and change anything. What good times!
If armies of AI spies are not a thing now, they soon will be.
Imagine having thousands and thousands of agents watching every single one of your government and company officials morning, noon, and night. Now, imagine they never get tired and only cost as much as a high-end PC.
Using data that most companies collect on users and a few planted agent employees to give you key access and your leaders data is ripe for the picking and exploiting. Low-tier hackers may hack you to ransom your data – the big guys will quietly watch you to see if you’re vulnerable in ways never before.
Here’s just one simple example of what it might look like:
