LGBTQ Gamers Are Feeling Pride Thanks To New 'Spider-Man' Video Game's Subtle Message Of Inclusion ❤️

Marvel's Spider-Man PS4-exclusive game was just released on September 7 and it's everything fans were hoping for and much more.




The video game is already receiving rave reviews.



Worthplaying.com is calling it art.



"Marvel's Spider-Man does what a lot of good art does, which is examine techniques and concepts that work well, and then blend and refine them to create something unique to itself and possibly greater."



Vandal said,


"Spider-Man is probably the best game of Insomniac and the best game based on the superhero to date."



And according to Eurogamer, in the UK, Spider-Man is the fastest selling game so far this year. It is also the fastest selling Marvel game ever.



But the game's highlights don't stop there.



As players saw when jumping from building to building, the creators thoughtfully incorporated rainbow flags, showing support of the LGBTQ community.



The flag and rainbow wall seen in the game are actual replicas of the real-life location that the game takes place in. One of the game's creators explained exactly where.





The small gesture has made a mighty impact on the game's players.

























Benno went on to explain their choice.





I guess now would be a good time to take up gaming 🌈.

But the latest flap online is really a doozy in its audacity both because it's incredibly dumb and also a lie, obviously posted as a purposeful attempt to get attention.

Massachusetts Catholic Church Angers Conservatives With Its Brutal ICE-Themed Nativity Scene

The Christian Bible teaches that the Holy Family—Joseph, Mary, and Jesus—were residents of the Herodian ruled Nazareth, Galilee. Having traveled back to Joseph's ancestral home—Roman ruled Bethlehem, Judea—for the census, Mary and Joseph, in modern American parlance, would have been homeless immigrants/tourists having an "anchor baby" at the time of Jesus' birth.

While Joseph considered Galilee his immediate family's home, the trio would eventually flee to Egypt as refugees to escape from King Herod.

Trump Ripped After Forcing National Parks To Drop Free Entry On MLK Day And Juneteenth For Infuriating Reason

President Donald Trump was criticized after the National Park Service announced it will be dropping Martin Luther King Jr. Day and Juneteenth for next year's calendar of free-entry days and adding Trump's birthday, which happens to fall on Flag Day, on June 14.

Last month, the Department of the Interior unveiled changes to what it now calls its “resident-only patriotic fee-free days,” expanding the calendar to include new dates like the Fourth of July weekend and President Theodore Roosevelt’s birthday, while dropping others that had honored the department itself, including the Bureau of Land Management’s anniversary.

Dem Rep. Has An Idea For A New Line Of Work For MTG After She Leaves Congress—And It Would Certainly Be Something

California Democratic Representative Robert Garcia was elected in November 2022 and even before being sworn in, he was locking horns with one-time MAGA darling and Georgia Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene.

For years, MTG was best known as the QAnon conspiracy theory-spewing, State of the Union heckling, crossfit hyping, Trump ride-or-dying, anti-LGBTQ+ racist MAGA minion from Georgia.
