To make up for the issue where Pokémon could not be caught when using Incense, all Trainers will receive 2x Daily Adventure Incense Duration and 3 Incense from August 13, at 12 am to August 20, 2025, at 11:45 pm local time.

The increased duration is expected to be 60 minutes.

Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.

There's an article I never got a chance to write at Polygon about camera controls.

I'm going to write it now that I have nothing but free time, but I need your help! If you could take a minute to answer these 11 questions (or share the link), that would be amazing.

"I think it should be controversial to NOT say anything" about Gaza

I spoke to YouTube star and children's educator Ms. Rachel about her outspoken support for Palestinian kids in Gaza - and the bad-faith attacks on her in response.

NEW— Nearly 200 US college presidents affirm their schools as places where "faculty, students, and staff are free to exchange ideas and opinions…without fear of retribution, censorship, or deportation."

Signers include Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Cornell, UPenn, Brown, Tufts

Notably absent: Columbia
"As leaders of America’s colleges, universities, and scholarly societies, we speak with one voice against the unprecedented government overreach and political interference now endangering American higher education. We are open to constructive reform and do not oppose legitimate government oversight. However, we must oppose undue government intrusion in the lives of those who learn, live, and work on our campuses. We will always seek effective and fair financial practices, but we must reject the coercive use of public research funding. America’s system of higher learning is as varied as the goals and dreams of the students it serves. It includes research universities and community colleges; comprehensive universities and liberal arts colleges; public institutions and private ones; freestanding and multi-site campuses. Some institutions are designed for all students, and others are dedicated to serving particular groups. Yet, American institutions of higher learning have in common the essential freedom to determine, on academic grounds, whom to admit and what is taught, how, and by whom. Our colleges and universities share a commitment to serve as centers of open inquiry where, in their pursuit of truth, faculty, students, and staff are free to exchange ideas and opinions across a full range of viewpoints without fear of retribution, censorship, or deportation. Because of these freedoms, American institutions of higher learning are essential to American prosperity and serve as productive partners with government in promoting the common good. Colleges and universities are engines of opportunity and mobility, anchor institutions that contribute to economic and cultural vitality regionally and in our local communities. They foster creativity and innovation, provide human resources to meet the fast-changing demands of our dynamic workforce, and are themselves major employers. They nurture the scholarly pursuits that ensure America’s leadership in research, and many prov…

I recently discovered that the girl that I was besotted with at university has unfriended me on Facebook. We've not spoken for almost twenty years, so it's no great loss, but I'm surprisingly saddened that she thought about me one final time and rejected me once again.

I work in a boring office and dream of going all over the country with a big bearded trucker, helping him with navigating and unloading his goods. This isn't some homoerotic fantasy, I just really like lorries and don't fancy big hairy truckers. I'm not gay.
