copycat

The internet sure does love a cat, as illustrated by games like Stray, and Copycat eagerly jumps on that bandwagon in its demo debut. Thankfully, that never feels gimmicky, and the Steam Next Fest sampling is packed with enough emotion to make the grumpiest grouch’s heart melt. Copycat illustrates a somber mix of both loss and belonging through Dawn, the cat, and Olive, an older lady who adopts her. Dawn isn’t receptive at all to her new home where even the ring of a telephone has the feline racing for cover. Before her…

Realtors are being deluged with class-action lawsuits threatening to upend the traditional real estate compensation system, with 16 “copycat” cases filed in the wake of a mammoth $1.78 billion verdict handed down last October against top industry groups.

Baby names sometimes turn into battlefields for the extended family and for this reason, expecting parents may be less in a hurry to reveal their considerations or even find some alternative ways to deal with it the next time.At least this was something that this Redditor’s wife did, giving her children funny non-existent names going forward and then, to everyone’s relief, “changing” her mind.

It’s become a rite of passage for any professional wrestler with eyes on conquering Hollywood to appear in a superhero movie, and Seth Rollins will become the latest to make that leap when he swings by Captain America: Brave New World next year. Of course, a grappler showing up in a comic book adaptation is no guarantee of success, with Dave Bautista’s massively popular and incredibly lucrative stint as Drax the Destroyer in the Guardians of the the Galaxy and Avengers franchises being…
