The Game Awards 2025 and the Night One Game Ate the Stage

Eight trophies, one gravitational center, and an industry that briefly convinced itself this was destiny rather than appetite. The Game Awards 2025 unfolded like a formal ceremony that accidentally wandered into a single studio’s victory party and then politely decided not to leave.

Israel and Gaza: Ceasefire With an Asterisk

A “targeted” hit, a disputed death, civilian casualties, and the world’s most brittle truce doing that familiar thing where it pretends it can survive physics.

Kristi Noem Shows Up to Oversight With a Script and Leaves With More Questions

The administration calls it law enforcement, critics call it a rights grinder, and Congress tries to remember it has a job besides yelling. The House Homeland Security Committee hauled DHS Secretary Kristi Noem in for an oversight hearing and the whole thing played out like a courtroom drama performed by people who hate courts. Noem
