CSGO: Gambling sites are flourishing

When it comes to CSGO, yes eSports is a never-ending thrill for the community. One thing you should know, however, is that CSGO skin gambling is about to be bigger and better than ever.

Gumbo is the latest favourite character in Fortnite

Next on the agenda is the newfound love of many players within the Fortnite community. Gumbo is the newest member on the scene, with some players even purchasing 50-levels just to gain access to this special character in the game. Those who are taking accountability for the move will actually admit he was so worth it too. We have seen ninjas, superheroes and countless hybrids, yet there never has been a mashup of this character before. Gumbo is perfect, and if you are wanting a seasonal gift for yourself, this may be the one. Although it will set you back around $30 to do so, it is the season to treat yourself after all!

Halo Infinite is getting more playlists

For all the Halo Infinite players out there, this is your moment to rejoice. Not only is this the season for joy, but you will also be accommodated with some seriously good playlists from December 14th! This will include Slayer, Slayer Swat, Free-for-all and Fiesta. The biggest complaints from players were that since the launch of the game, there have not been enough playlists beyond the Quick Play available, meaning this will certainly be your 10-day early Christmas gift to look forward to, for the extra gameplay hours you will accumulate over the festive period.

Sonic Frontiers trailer has revealed that Amy is a ghost now

Next up on the news front, we have reason to believe that Amy from Sonic is now a ghost within the game. She will be the voice of reason and guidance for Sonic on his gameplay and adventure, which leaves us hanging with multiple questions. Is she dead? Has she been possessed? Is she stuck in another world? While the answers are far from being given, players will be wanting to know more, leaving this a great marketing exploit to reel players into the storyline.

Microsoft ‘Lionhead was the biggest missteps’

Last but not least, while this comes to many as a little bit too late, it still is welcome, nevertheless. The episode of the Power on: The Story of Xbox saw multiple members of Xbox discuss how Lionhead studios had its closure and were in fact the biggest misstep of the company. While it is sad to look back on the closure of Lionhead, the game conglomerate can take a few lessons learned from the situation, including the fact that Xbox now believes it is their job to accelerate and help know-how and what they do (quoted directly from the episode). Nevertheless, fans who have followed the inner workings of Xbox for years will certainly be grateful for this progress forward and accountability from Microsoft.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.

Winter break is over, we're all back at our respective colleges, and the first week of classes is underway. This is a little bit how that week tends to go.

The professor starts to go over something more than the syllabus

You get homework assigned on the first day of class

There are multiple group projects on the syllabus

You learn attendance is mandatory and will be taken every class

Professor starts chatting about their personal life and what inspired them to teach this class

Participation is mandatory and you have to play "icebreaker games"

Everybody is going out because its 'syllabus week' but you're laying in bed watching Grey's Anatomy

Looking outside anytime past 8 PM every night of this week

Nobody actually has any idea what's happening this entire week

Syllabus week is over and you realize you actually have to try now...or not

Now it's time to get back into the REAL swing of things. Second semester is really here and we all have to deal with it.

Definitely the worst part about working at Panera was the uniform and having someone cute come in. Please don’t look at me in my hat.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.
