Oh, absolutely. I mean, just look at how fast the Baltimore bridge memes started pouring in. I'm not saying that that incident is funny, but it is a good example of what you're talking about.

Shocking new video shows Baltimore bridge collapse as divers race to find SIX missing members of the same construction crew who were working when ship struck - sending them and five cars plunging 185ft into 47F river

PUBLISHED: 14:26 GMT, 26 March 2024 | UPDATED: 19:37 GMT, 26 March 2024

Harrowing footage captured the moment Baltimore's Key Bridge collapsed after being struck by a cargo ship - leaving five vehicles submerged in water and six construction workers missing.

Maryland authorities are using sonar detection devices to search for the crew members who fell into the 47F water as they were working to repair potholes on the 185-foot bridge when it collapsed.

Governor Wes Moore declared a state of emergency Tuesday morning following the catastrophic collision, which occurred at about 1.30am. The ship - the Singaporean-flagged Dali - was 20 minutes into its journey when it slammed into a support column on the bridge.

Video Game Players Avoid Gay Characters


A study of gamer behavior finds they shy away from gay characters, regardless of their strengths

BY CORNEL NESSELER

I like video games because they give me choices that I don’t have in real life. When I want to feel like a princess, I choose Peach in Mario Kart. If I want to fight like Bruce Lee, I can choose Marshall Law in Tekken.

When picking out which character to play in a game, players factor in an avatar’s strengths and weaknesses, and even their appearance. But players also make their choices based on attributes that aren’t apparent during gameplay and have no influence on the game, such as a character’s sexuality. And my research has found that other players in turn might treat those characters differently within the game. This is important for the gaming industry. Some companies actively support social movements through publicity and marketing campaigns and product labeling. However, backlash could deter these companies from supporting marginalized groups and discourage gay players from participating.
