When it launched at the end of the PS4’s lifespan, The Last of Us 2 was arguably the best-looking and most environmentally dense game to grace the console. Practically every area of the game managed to tell its own story in thanks to subtle details like discarded clothes and relics of former camps. Furthermore, The Last of Us 2’s narrative priority results in many clever secrets that eagle-eyed players can spot on subsequent playthroughs, like how JJ opens his eyes when Ellie isn’t looking at him....

Before Last of Us 2 was indefinitely delayed, it was intended to release in May. However, due to circumstances caused by the coronavirus, the game was delayed with no date. Fans can now expect to play The Last of Us 2 on June 19, far sooner than some had anticipated considering the cause of the delay.

But he is completely misguided. I teach Islamic political thought at a university, and I always tell my students that they must respect plurality and democracy. We must figure out how to have a democracy that relates to our customs and traditions and that is not dominated by corruption....

–From “Children of the Atomic Bomb: Testament of Boys and Girls of Hiroshima” HIROSHIMA–“When” was the first time in history that thousands of people were killed in an instant. “When” was 8:15 a.m., 61 summers ago. In the B-29 Enola Gay, the copilot, keeping a flight log, wrote: “There will be a short intermission while we bomb our target.” Next, in a wild hand, he wrote “My God!” People who worry about a revival of Japanese militarism do not fathom history’s grip on the only nation that has experienced nuclear war, a nation still reading newspaper stories about the ailments and entitlements of hibakusha –survivors of the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombs....

“Talking to Myself,” the fourth single from Growing Up, explores self-doubt and the—unfortunately—universal experience of replaying awkward moments repeatedly in one’s head, long after the opportunity to change or fix those situations has long passed by. The video, on the other hand, takes a slightly more literal take on the lyrics, with each of the band members taking a doll doppelganger of themselves on their favorite activities, from swan boat rides to record shopping....
