WATCH: ‘The Simpsons’ Predicted Donald Trump Would Become President Back In 2000

On March 19, 2000, the “Bart to the Future” episode of The Simpsons aired on FOX. It was the 17th episode of the 11th season of the show, and it was the 243rd episode of The Simpsons overall. The premise of the episode is that Bart sees into the future and discovers that he grows up to be a deadbeat musician, while Lisa becomes the President of the United States. During a meeting with her staff, Lisa talks about overcoming the debt she inherited from President Trump.

Crazy stuff. It’s amazing how many times The Simpsons have been spot-on with their predictions over the years. They need to give out some lottery ticket numbers in an episode ASAP.

Here’s what Dan Greaney, the writer of “Bart to the Future,” told The Hollywood Reporter in March about the decision to make Trump president.

“It was a warning to America,” writer Dan Greaney tells The Hollywood Reporter.

He adds: “And that just seemed like the logical last stop before hitting bottom. It was pitched because it was consistent with the vision of America going insane.”

“The important thing is that Lisa comes into the presidency when America is on the ropes, and that is the condition left by the Trump presidency,” Greaney tells THR. “What we needed was for Lisa to have problems that were beyond her fixing, that everything went as bad as it possibly could, and that’s why we had Trump be president before her.”

Goddamn, that’s depressing. Greaney tried to envision the most f*cked up situation imaginable for our country, and that is exactly what we ended up with. If you need me, I’ll be trying to cheer myself up by watching “Homer at the Bat” on a continuous loop for the rest of the day.


President Barack Obama Spoke To The Press About Trump’s Election Today

president-obama-speech

President Barack Obama will be speaking to the press in the Rose Garden to discuss the election of Donald Trump. President Obama congratulated Donald Trump on his victory, congratulated Hillary Clinton on her campaign, and calmed Americans who might be worried about what tomorrow holds. His speech directly followed Hillary Clinton’s concession speech to Mr. Trump.

Watch video of the speech below:

President Obama Speech Transcript

Good afternoon, everybody. Yesterday, before votes were tallied, I shot a video that some of you may have seen in which I said to the American people, regardless of which side you were on in the election, regardless of whether your candidate won or lost, the sun would come up in the morning.

And that is one bit of prognosticating that actually came true. The sun is up. And I know everybody had a long night. I did as well. I had a chance to talk to President-elect Trump last night about 3:30 in the morning, I think it was, to congratulate him on winning the election and I had a chance to invite him to come to the White House tomorrow to talk about making sure that there is a successful transition between our presidencies.

Now, it is no secret that the president-elect and I have some pretty significant differences. But remember, eight years ago President Bush and I had some pretty significant differences. But President Bush’s team could not have been more professional or more gracious in making sure we had a smooth transition so that we could hit the ground running.

And one thing you realize quickly in this job is that the presidency and the vice presidency is bigger than any of us. So I have instructed my team to follow the example that President Bush’s team set eight years ago, and work as hard as we can to make sure that this is a successful transition for the president-elect.

Because we are now all rooting for his success in uniting and leading the country. The peaceful transition of power is one of the hallmarks of our democracy. And over the next few months, we are going to show that to the world.

I also had a chance last night to speak with Secretary Clinton and I just had the chance to hear her remarks. I could not be prouder of her. She has lived an extraordinary life of public service. She was a great first lady. She was an outstanding senator for the state of New York. And she could not have been a better secretary of state.

I’m proud of her. A lot of Americans look up to her. Her candidacy and nomination was historic and sends a message to our daughters all across the country that they can achieve at the highest levels of politics. And I’m absolutely confident that she and President Clinton will continue to do great work for people here in the United States and all around the world.

Now, everybody is sad when their side loses an election, but the day after we have to remember that we’re actually all on one team. This is an intramural scrimmage. We’re not Democrats first. We’re not Republicans first. We are Americans first. We’re patriots first.

We all want what’s best for this country. That’s what I heard in Mr. Trump’s remarks last night. That’s what I heard when I spoke to him directly. And I was heartened by that. That’s what the country needs — a sense of unity, a sense of inclusion, a respect for our institutions, our way of life, rule of law, and respect for each other.

I hope that he maintains that spirit throughout this transition. And I certainly hope that’s how his presidency has a chance to begin.

I also told my team today to keep their heads up, because the remarkable work that they have done day in, day out, often without a lot of fanfare, often with (ph) a lot of — a lot of attention — work in agencies, work in obscure areas of policy that make government run better and make it more responsive and make it more efficient, and make it more service-friendly so that it’s actually helping more people. That remarkable work has left the next president with a stronger, better country than the one that existed eight years ago.

So win or lose in this election, that was always our mission. That was our mission from day one. And everyone on my team should be extraordinarily proud of everything that they have done and so should all of the Americans that I’ve had a chance to meet all across this country who do the hard work of building on that progress every single day.

Teachers in schools, doctors in E.R. clinic, small businesses putting their all into starting something up, making sure they’re treating their employees well, all the important work that’s done by moms and dads and families and congregations in every state, the work of perfecting this union.

So this was a long and hard fought campaign. A lot of our fellow Americans are exalted today, a lot of Americans are less so, but that’s the nature of campaigns, that’s the nature of democracy. It is hard and sometimes contentious and noisy and it’s not always inspiring.

But to the young people who got into politics for the first time and may be disappointed by the results, I just want you to know, you have to stay encouraged. Don’t get cynical, don’t ever think you can’t make a difference. As Secretary Clinton said this morning, fighting for what is right is worth it. Sometimes you lose an argument, sometimes you lose an election.

You know, the path that this country has taken has never been a straight line. We zig and zag and sometimes we move in ways that some people think is forward and others think is moving back, and that’s OK. I’ve lost elections before. Joe hasn’t, but…

(LAUGHTER)

You know. So I’ve been sort of sure…

BIDEN: But (ph) you beat me badly.

(LAUGHTER)

OBAMA: That’s the way politics works sometimes. We try really hard to persuade people that we’re right and then people vote. And then if we lose, we learn from our mistakes, we do some reflection, we lick our wounds, we brush ourselves off, we get back in the arena, we go at it. We try even harder the next time.

The point though is is that we all go forward with a presumption of good faith in our fellow citizens, because that presumption of good faith is essential to a vibrant and functioning democracy. That’s how this country has moved forward for 240 years. It’s how we’ve pushed boundaries and promoted freedom around the world. That’s how we’ve expanded the rights of our founding to reach all of our citizens. It’s how we have come this far.

And that’s why I’m confident that this incredible journey that we’re on, as Americans, will go on. And I’m looking forward to doing everything that I can to make sure that the next president is successful in that.

I’ve said before, I think of this job as being a relay runner. You take the baton, you run your best race and hopefully by the time you hand it off, you’re a little further ahead, you’ve made a little progress. And I can say that we’ve done that and I want to make sure that handoff is well executed because ultimately we’re all on the same team.

All right. Thank you very much, everybody.

Here is Hillary Clinton’s concession speech, which was given right before Obama’s.

After Election 2016, Find Out Where Marijuana Is Legal And To What Extent

LOS ANGELES, CA - JULY 25: on July 25, 2012 in Los Angeles, California. The Los Angeles City Council has unanimously voted to ban storefront medical marijuana dispensaries and to order them to close or face legal action. The council also voted to instruct staff to draw up a separate ordinance for consideration in about three months that might allow dispensaries that existed before a 2007 moratorium on new dispensaries to continue to operate. It is estimated that Los Angeles has about one thousand such facilities. The ban does not prevent patients or cooperatives of two or three people to grow their own in small amounts. Californians voted to legalize medical cannabis use in 1996, clashing with federal drug laws. The state Supreme Court is expected to consider ruling on whether cities can regulate and ban dispensaries. (Photo by David McNew/Getty Images)

Since it was originally outlawed in 1937, marijuana has never been more legal in the United States than it is today. More than a majority of states have some form of legalized marijuana, whether it’s for medical or recreational purposes. California was the first state to enter the fray, followed by Colorado, and a few other states. During the 2016 Election, four more states (Maine, Massachusetts, Nevada, and California) passed laws legalizing recreational marijuana.

Of course, the elephant in the room is that the use, possession, sale, and cultivation of cannabis is still illegal on a federal level. The good news, though, is that the federal government has stated that if a state wants to decriminalize weed for medical or recreational purposes, they can do so as long as there is some system of regulation in place. Whether or not that will change under President Trump’s administration is still yet to be seen, though.

Legalizing marijuana has some benefits, both medically and economically. Medically, it allows patients with various ailments to access a medicine that has significantly smaller negative side effects than other prescription drugs. Economically, it allows states to make millions of dollars in revenue through taxes.

Here are the states who have voted to legalize marijuana.

List of States With Legal Recreational Marijuana

Here is a list of states with legalized recreational marijuana, meaning that anyone over the age of 21 can walk into a dispensary and purchase bud for personal use.

Stop What You Are Doing And Watch Stephen Colbert Discuss The Election

“In the face of something that might strike you as horrible, I think laughter is the best medicine.”

Awesome video by Stephen Colbert. Colbert pretty much sums up how a lot of Americans are feeling right now. They are scared and don’t know what to think. Sometimes, you really do just need a laugh to settle you down and take a step back from everything.

Alarming stuff Colbert brought up, especially how 55% of Democrats are afraid of the Republican party and 49% of Republicans are afraid of the Democratic party. Wait, what? Why the hell are we afraid of each other? Shouldn’t both sides be working together? That is the scariest part to me. Just because one crazy Republican says an outlandish thing does not mean Democrats should be afraid of the whole Republican party. The same goes for the one crazy Democrat that frightens the Republican party. One bad apple should not ruin the bunch. Every single person is an American and last time I checked, we’re all on the same side. This idea of being afraid of each other is a bunch of bullsh*t and I pray this election changes that idea.

The election is over, people. It’s over! Enough with the political hot takes on Facebook. Enough with the bashing of both Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton. This gets us absolutely nowhere as a country. In fact, it sets us back. Did I support Donald Trump in the election? No. Did I support Hillary Clinton in the election? No. Does that mean I’m going to leave America because Trump won? Hell no. This is the time to come together as a nation. You’re upset with Donald Trump? Ok, do something about it. Talk to your local politicians and get involved in your community. Don’t put your life on hold because you don’t like the new president. Make it better.

The biggest problem I have with Donald Trump is that he wants to “Make America Great Again.” Hold up, when has America not been great? America is the greatest country in the world. There’s no need to make something great again if it’s already great. It should be “America Is Already Great So Lets Just Keep Making It Better.” Trump said a lot, and I mean A LOT, of controversial things. So if Trump does every crazy thing he said he was going to do, then we have a problem, but that’s not going to happen because the American people won’t let him do that. Call me naive, but I trust that Americans will do the right thing when we need it the most.

Like it or not, Donald Trump is the next president of the United States of America. Don’t worry, that scares me too, but I am not jumping ship. I will support the president until he gives me a reason not to, plain and simple. Whether you rooted for Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton does not matter anymore. It’s time to root for America.

Yes. This episode of SNL is going to be legendary. Dave Chappelle is arguably the greatest living comedic mind, and we need him now more than ever. Got to give all of the props in the world to NBC on this one. Chappelle hosting a sketch comedy show would be a HUGE deal no matter when it happened, let alone the week of the most controversial presidential election of all time. For the first time in a long time, Saturday Night Live is going to be must-see television.

Here’s hoping they gave Chappelle full creative control of his monologue. Other than various stand-up events and what not, Chappelle has been relatively dormant for the last decade. Saturday will mark his first time giving comedy to the American public since Chappelle’s Show went off the air. It is going to be glorious.

The Legend Of Harambe Continues As The Dead Gorilla Received Over 15,000 Votes For President

I would like to take a moment of silence for our fallen brother, Harambe. RIP buddy.

Now that we got that out of the way, HAHAHAHAHAHA. Harambe, you sly one! Pulling strings from the grave. What a country we live in. A country where you can write in any single person or in this case, animal, that you want to see as the next president.

According to a report by Daily Snark, Harambe received over 15,000 votes for the presidency. The rumor started out at 11,000 but has slowly creeped up to 15,000. Do I think this is actually true? Absolutely not. Do I think Harambe received some votes though? Of course he did. That’s the power Harambe has on people. The fact that this rumor made so many Americans upset is priceless.

Twitter had a field day with the Harambe rumors.

Harambe is the gift that keeps on giving. This is still the best Harambe tweet from Paul Ryan.

Feel Good Video Of The Day: NYPD Cop Fangirls And Completely Loses It When She Meets Conor McGregor

We finally have something that everyone will agree on in regards to Conor McGregor.

Conor McGregor is currently in NYC for his fight at UFC 205 on Saturday night. While in town, an NYPD officer caught the attention of the UFC fighter and she was completely starstruck. The female cop was Irish and was shaking in her boots upon talking to McGregor. Watch what happened below.

“Besides my kids, this is one of the best days of my life.”

Very cool move here by McGregor taking the time to talk with and thank the cop for her service. McGregor gets such a bad reputation because of his arrogance towards his opponents and flashy lifestyle outside of the ring. To me, that’s Conor McGregor’s fighting persona. Yes, he’s cocky. Yes, he’s very arrogant. But that is to give him an advantage inside the octagon. It’s a simple intimidation method. I’m better than you and you have no business fighting me. To McGregor’s credit, not only does he talk the talk, but he walks the walk and until someone knocks him off the top, he’s not going to change.

Conor McGregor does not care what the media thinks, but he’ll score some points with his critics for this video. Well done, Conor.

Meet Ceilidh Garten: Model Girlfriend Of B.J. Novak From ‘The Office’

B.J. Novak is best known for his work on the American version of The Office. The 37-year-old Novak not only acted on the TV series as Ryan Howard, but he also wrote, directed, and served as an executive producer on the workplace comedy.

Apparently, Novak used his writing skills to slide into the DMs of 21-year-old model Ceilidh Garten. Here’s Page Six with the scoop.

Showbiz insiders say that the 37-year-old actor, producer and author has been dating model and Instagram star Ceilidh Garten (otherwise known as @lilmixedhunny to her 72,500 followers) — causing much chatter among his usual crew of 40-something pals. Said one, “She looks like she’s about 12.”

A source tells us that the pair met online after Novak — who follows many an “Internet-famous” beauty online — reached out to her on the social network.

Insiders say that New York-based Garten — who was a paralegal, reportedly with a “genius-level IQ,” before she quit college to take selfies full-time — has been out in LA visiting Novak, who’s also the best-selling author of “The Book With No Pictures” and “One More Thing: Stories and Other Stories.”

Damn, B.J. You are one smooth son of a bitch! If I tried something like that my advances would get swatted into the fifth row. Novak previously dated 37-year-old Mindy Kaling, so Ceilidh seems like a pretty surprising choice for him.

But hey, variety is the spice of life. After scrolling through Ceilidh’s hottest photos, you’ll agree that Novak knows exactly what he’s doing.

Despite frequently speaking out on social issues and refusing to stand for the National Anthem, San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick didn’t vote on Tuesday. This news enraged Stephen A. Smith, causing him to bash Kaepernick on today’s edition of First Take.

Watch Smith blow a gasket in the video below.

Smith tweeted that he wasn’t going to mess around today, and man, he wasn’t lying. Just a total evisceration of Kaepernick by Smith. And call me crazy, but I think for the first time in my life I actually agree with Smith on something. With all of the problems Kaepernick sees in America, it’s inexplicable that he wouldn’t exercise his right to vote. Hell, even voting for Harambe would’ve been more productive than just sitting on the couch.

So, in conclusion, I’m agreeing with Stephen A. Smith and Donald Trump is president. What the f*ck is going on?

Fox Is Wasting Absolutely No Time, Already Developing ‘Deadpool 3’

Despite losing both the director and composer for Deadpool 2 within the span of a week, Fox is full steam ahead with the franchise. According to reports from The Hollywood Reporter, despite any issues with Deadpool 2’s development, Fox is already planning for Deadpool 3 and the future of the $4 billion X-Men cinematic franchise. Gotta respect the cajones on Fox with this one. With Marvel currently churning along at all-time high efficiency, it is crucial that Fox keeps developing these movies in order to retain the rights to the properties. Despite the current developmental problems with Deadpool 2, we have zero doubts it’ll be just as awesome as the first. Which is why we are TOTALLY on board with them already developing the third film in the franchise.

Via Uproxx:

Their sources report the third film has a “storyline that will involve another X-team, X-Force.” Yes. The X-Force is finally coming to screens. It’s long been rumored as an option, with Bryan Singer even revealing Simon Kinberg was working on an early script. Kinberg has also said on multiple occasions that an X-Force adaptation should be rated R, and Ryan Reynolds has called X-Force his priority and a film that should be rated R. With Cable already coming to Deadpool 2, assembling X-Force for a rated-R Deadpool 3 seems like a logical progression.

For some context, there was previously an X-Force movie in development by Jeff Wadlow (Kick-Ass 2) until it was canceled by the Apocalypse. Shortly after Fox put the kibosh on that, there were rumors they still wanted an X-Forceadaptation with Deadpool, Colossus, Psylocke, Archangel, and Cable. The only two characters not already in Deadpool or Deadpool 2 are Psylocke and Archangel, and we got the impression it won’t take much convincing to get Olivia Munn to play Psylocke again, considering she’s said, “It would definitely be cool to see Deadpool and some of the other X-Men characters gather for an X-Force movie.”

If you’re one of those people who want comic book movies to die out, good luck, ’cause these suckers are showing ZERO sign of slowing down.

Conor McGregor Election Day Interview

You know who Hillary supporters need to hear from in a stressful time like this? Not Hillary Clinton. Not President Barack Obama. Not even Steven Colbert. No, in order to actually find solace and comfort in the future of the United States, let’s turn to Conor McGregor, a feisty Irish immigrant who makes hundreds of millions of dollars beating the sh*t out of people a couple of times a year.

When asked about the surprise Election Day results just three days before the biggest fight of his career, McGregor gave this gem of a response:

“I just could not give a bollocks, with all due respect, the whole thing is weird to me. The public are just brainwashed into thinking something is going to happen with this one.”

“I don’t think either of those two contenders, or whatever they are, have power in anything, anyway. But whatever, it is what it is.”

People are apparently all over this quote as a confirmation that he’s the greatest celebrity who ever lived. I just want to point out that while, yes, the sun will rise and set just like it has every other day, it might not be fair to ask a prize fighter who is just days away from the biggest payday in his life about politics. McGregor has been training every day for weeks and months to beat Eddie Alvarez at Madison Square Garden for UFC 205.

Am I bitter about the election results? 100% absolutely I am. But I’m willing to listen to people who voted or who are educated about what happened, because that’s how we improve this country. What I don’t want to do is let people with absolutely zero skin in the game, interviewed by foreign media, who could care less whether their tens of millions of prize dollars are taxed at 5% or 3.5%, tell me that this election didn’t matter. Tell that to the millions of LGBT, minority or immigrant citizens that voted.

Good luck on Saturday, Conor. The media is projecting you to win UFC 205.

This Is How The Electoral Map Would Have Looked If Only Voters Ages 18-25 Counted

The map doesn’t surprise me. This is usually how millennials vote. What does surprise me is the sheer disparity in electoral votes. 504 to 23? Is a trouncing that severe even possible?

Not to toot my own dick, but I’ve always said there should be an age cap on voting. Why the f*ck should someone who’s 65 years old have a say? They’re living off their 401ks and Medicare — ain’t nothing gonna effect them. The only reason old people vote is because they’re stubborn and want to resist the sweeping change the youth of the nation bring about. And to be honest, at that age you’re happy to make it through another year, let alone another presidential term.

Anyway, take this for what you will. It’s certainly wild to look at when you consider how last night’s results turned out.

While some of the exit poll statistics were disheartening (one CNN poll found that 63 percent of American white males voted for Trump while only 31 percent voted for Clinton), the fact that Clinton was backed by 55 percent of voters under the age of 29, male and female, is cause for a small celebration.

It’s not all doom and gloom today, as J.B. Smoove provided some great news for Curb Your Enthusiasm fans. Smoove, who plays Leon Black on Curb, posted a photo of him getting back to work on the classic comedy series.

Hell yes! Curb is one of my favorite TV shows of all-time, and Smoove is a big reason that it holds such a dear place in my heart. It’s crazy to think that Curb was on the air for five seasons without Leon, as he’s provided such an insane amount of laughs since he came on board in season 6. Nobody can pass the comedic genius that is Larry David, but Leon is without question my second favorite character on Curb.

After a five-year hiatus, Curb will return to HBO for a ninth season. An air date hasn’t been announced yet, but it’s believed that season 9 will make its premiere sometime in 2017. To hold you over until Curb makes its long-awaited return, here are a few of my favorite Leon clips.


This Is How Newspapers Around The World Reacted To Donald Trump Becoming President

At last, one of the nastiest and most cutthroat elections of all time has come to a close. Around the world, the results have left millions of people, including voters and American citizens, baffled. Some are happy, some are devastated, while others are confused and scared. Personally, I believe this election completely embodied the new American spirit: to divide and separate. That is exactly what this election has accomplished. Yes, there will always be mixed emotions when Americans are told they must select their fate in a ‘trusted’ leader. Though I’m not pointing any fingers towards Trump or Clinton, per se. In general, most elections follow suit. But what is really going on in the heads of Americans and other countries today? How are we feeling the day after the election when the emotional hangover has settled. What are the front pages saying?

There you have it: around the globe coverage of the 2016 election. Just think of it this way… What’s another four years, right?

No Matter Who You Voted For, You Better Be Watching ‘South Park’ Tonight

South Park took last week off, which we assume was in preparation for this week’s episode, which is conveniently airing the day after the most controversial election in the history of American democracy.

In 2008, less than 24 hours after his acceptance speech, South Park aired the episode “About Last Night” which not only depicted Barack Obama winning, but also included clips from his acceptance speech. It was one of the biggest moments in South Park history, and helped make it the cultural phenomenon that it is today. But as epic as that episode was, tonight is going to be even better.

Yesterday, South Park uploaded a preview for tonight’s episode on their various social media accounts. The 30-second clip was of PC Principal speaking to South Park Elementary. After going on a speech about finally having a candidate who will end sexism, misogyny, he finally introduces said candidate… Bill Clinton. However, today, the preview clip has essentially been erased from existence. Due to that, there is no telling what tonight’s episode will consist of. If we know one thing, though, it’s that it’s going to be a South Park classic, so make sure you find out how to tune in below!

The sixth season of the FX horror anthology television series American Horror Story premiered on September 14, 2016, the first time the series has debuted outside of October in its history. Up until the season premiere, little was known about the season’s theme. At one point, creator Ryan Murphy said the season will be “more rogue” and “dark,” in contrast to the previous season, Hotel. The premiere episode revealed the season to be depicted as a paranormal documentary entitled My Roanoke Nightmare, which reenacts the experiences of a married couple who relocates to Roanoke Island, North Carolina. The season 6 finale is scheduled to air next week on November 16, 2016, with the seventh season already scheduled for next year.

Presented as a paranormal documentary series titled My Roanoke Nightmare, the story follows a married couple whose experiences are reenacted by actors.

‘Dishonored 2’ Review: Must-See Details & Screenshots

Dishonored 2

Sending you off on a breathless hunt for vengeance, Dishonored 2 continues the Steampunk-infused story of the beloved 2012 game. Controlling a bitter protagonist who wields otherworldly abilities and lurks in the shadows to exact revenge on a cruel society, you feel a growing sense of power as you collect upgrades and experience. You shape your character to your playstyle. You can become a ninja who slinks through deadly situations like a ghost, a sadistic tormentor who traps and tortures your enemies or a guns-blazing warrior who unleashes torrents of death and loots the corpses in your wake. Whatever choices you make, Dishonored 2 feels like the right way to spend your gaming dollar.

Game: Dishonored 2
Consoles: Xbox One (reviewed), PS4, PC
Publisher: Bethesda Softworks
Developer: Arkane Studios
Release Date: November 11

Developers Arkane Studios took great panes to retain the feel and rhythm of the original Dishonored as they took massive steps to upgrade the graphics and gameplay to current-gen standards. The biggest change-up this time out is the introduction of two characters. After a brief introduction, in which a monarch emerges from out of nowhere — Game of Thrones style — to seize control of the throne and send you packing. You choose whether to play as Corvo, the protagonist from the first game, or his daughter Emily. Subtle differences between the two characters can change the way you experience the game greatly. Corvo, by nature, is more of a bruiser who excels at hand-to-hand combat, while the slightly more athletic and agile Emily makes for more effective speed runs and dazzling takedowns.

Because Dishonored 2 is a single player-only experience, the variability greatly boosts the replay value. The game is built from the ground up to give you reason to come back for multiple play-throughs.Choices you make alter the way the story unfolds, leading to varied paths that change the way you approach and react to various situations. Missions are generally open-ended, leaving it to you to decide how to approach and achieve your objectives. You may find yourself locked in a tower, deciding whether to spook the guards into accidentally opening the path for your escape, or sneaking up on one of them to swipe a key that will let you slink out unnoticed. Some of the more elaborate set pieces tax your creativity and planning ability to the max, making you feel like genius when your crazy plans come to fruition or a moron when you fail miserably.

A certain subset of fans prizes the ability to make their way through stealth games with minimal combat, and Dishonored 2 keeps that playstyle in mind by presenting multiple nonlethal options throughout the game, rarlely falling back on the copout of letting you knock out enemies rather than kill them. Multiple settings options help you tweak the game to your liking, whether you want to up brightness so you can more easily see tiny objects that are stuck in the corners of catacombs or adjusting the difficulty level to provide enough of a challenge to keep things interesting. You can collect materials to craft and upgrade items to your liking rather than grind for cash to buy them. The truly hardcore can even switch off the HUD so they get no hints as to level objectives or enemy whereabouts, and even opt to work your way through the game without supernatural powers.

It would have been easy for Bethesda Softworks to cash in on the popularity of the first game and start cranking out annual sequels in the manner of Assassin’s Creed, but the restraint the publisher showed by giving developers four years to craft a sequel that not only equaled but topped the original in every way paid off masterfully. Dishonored 2 is a colossal undertaking that oozes detail in every dank corner. Exploring its intricacies is a joy for fans of stealth-action hybrid games. The array of powers available and the customization options make you feel as though you’ve got just as much of a hand in creating your story as developers did. You can easily lose yourself in the story, which tends to feel like an interactive TV series or novel that you can’t put down. What sets this game apart from those mediums is that you can return again and again for new experiences every time.

Nicole Aymond Photos: Must-See Pictures of Teacher

Nicole Aymond Photos

Nicole Aymond, a Port Barre High School teacher and women’s basketball coach, has been arrested after being accused of having sexual relations with a 17-year-old student and an 18-year-old student. She’s also accused of having a relationship with another student. According to Louisiana law, 17 is the age of consent, but laws prevent teachers from having “extra-curricular” relationships with their students (if the student is under the age of 21).

Police began investigating Nicole after a concerned phone call from parents. Once they began the investigation, the police discovered text messages of nude photos that were sent to the students. Afterward, Aymond admitted to having sex with the 17-year-old and 18-year-old, plus another student.

Nicole has been arrested on three counts of prohibited sexual conduct. The pictures you see above and below were taken at a Port Barre prison or something. That pink shirt isn’t something that she was wearing when she was arrested, it’s the “Inmate” shirt they make arrested criminals wear.
