Less than a week after I wrote about IDAHOT and the continued struggle of the LGBT community around the world against hatred and violence, Omar Mateen massacred fifty people and injured fifty-three others when he stormed the Pulse gay club in Orlando, Florida. It is now the worst mass shooting in the history of the United States and their deadliest terrorist attack since 9/11.
And make no mistake about it: this was a terrorist attack. Omar Mateen had pledged allegiance to ISIS during the attack itself.
Injustice Strikes Back

I have been waiting for the Injustice: Gods Among Us sequel for years, and I am friggin’ stoked because this is one of my favorite – if not my favorite – games of all time. I have spent hours upon hours upon hours across the last three years on both the console and mobile versions, and DC and NetherRealm do not disappoint.
Judging from the trailer released for the sequel, it looks like they will continue to not disappoint.
