Free Narcan Kits to Be Distributed to New York Nightlife Establishments, Per New Legislation
It’s no secret that the opioid epidemic is worsening across the country. In New York City, where one resident dies of an overdose every three hours, the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) has teamed up with the Mayor’s Office of Nightlife for groundbreaking new legislation: distributing free anti-overdose kits to nightlife establishments across the state’s five boroughs. The hope, legislators said in a press release, is to combat accidental overdoses caused by pills or powders laced with fentanyl, a substance the United States Drug Administration found fatal doses of in 42% of pills they tested in 2021. Narcan, an anti-overdose agent that rapidly reverses the effects of an overdose, will be in each kit they provide to community nightlife hubs. “The frank real...

Burning Man Reveals 2023 Theme, Animalia
Following a successful return to the playa in 2022, the organizers of Burning Man are starting to prepare for next year’s edition by announcing its theme: Animalia. The theme was revealed in a blog post published in The Burning Man Journal by Stuart Mangrum, the director of Burning Man Project’s Philosophical Center. “This year’s Burning Man theme will celebrate the animal world and our place in it—animals real and imagined, mythic and remembered—and explore the curious mental constructs that allow us to believe that imagined animals are real, real animals are imagined, and that somehow, despite all evidence to the contrary, mankind is somehow not part of the animal kingdom,” Mangrum wrote. That may take a minute to digest, but it leaves room for in...

HHW Gaming: New Study Shows Kids Who Play Video Games Score Higher On Brain Function Tests
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Riska / Getty Parents, listen up, video games are more than likely not ruining your young gamer’s brain, but they might improve how it functions. A new study focusing on adolescent brain functions shows that kids who play video games seem to have better memory and control over their motor skills than kids who don’t pick up the sticks. While the study also does state that video game playing might not be the reason for the differences in brain functions, it doesn’t dismiss the idea of gamers performing better on some tests of brain functions. If that is the case, it could further push the argument for developing video games to help improve and treat cognitive problems. “This study adds to our growing understanding of the associations between playing video g...

James Cameron Says Marvel and DC Characters “Act Like They’re in College”
James Cameron has joined the ranks of esteemed directors who have criticized comic book movies. In a New York Times interview, he said Marvel and DC characters don’t weigh the risks like the heroes in his new movie, Avatar: The Way of Water, who are now parents. According to Cameron, they instead “act like they’re in college” regardless of their personal lives. “When I look at these big, spectacular films — I’m looking at you, Marvel and DC — it doesn’t matter how old the characters are, they all act like they’re in college,” Cameron said. “They have relationships, but they really don’t. They never hang up their spurs because of their kids. The things that really ground us and give us power, love, and a purpose? Those characters don’t experience it, and I think that’s not the way to m...
