The Schloss-Blog is wondering .. can you meet someone interesting enough with whom to be in a relationship who's a gamer or through a dating app anymore?
Gen Z'ers are more and more saying no.
Fake profiles, distrust of dating-app companies and fresher prospects on other social media are just some of the reasons why.
Do you trust dating apps? For you? For your kids? Your grandkids?
Not only that, but people who "game" a lot are not likely desirable dating partners, let alone life partners. Per the National Bureau of Economic Research, don't date a gamer because those who don't game are much more attractive.
You want a gamer? They come with baggage, and a controller, a headset and a mouse.

Six hostages found dad, likely killed just before Israeli troops emerged upon them in a Hamas Gaza tunnel.
Die, Hamas, die, but bring the remaining hostages home first.

Feeling risky, brave?
You too can have Dinner in the Sky.
Suspended in midair over a metro area and being willing to pay hundreds, or more, you can eat some markets hanging over it all.
Literally. Take a look. This is for real.
Not only that, there are an increasing number of places around the country, around the world, to do it.
Yes, even at the Willis Tower in Chicago, sort of.
Good luck with that.

Kamala Harris says she supports a $25,000 tax credit for those families trying to finance a house, especially for the first time, as they feel priced out in a housing market short on units and high on prices and interest rates.
Trump's plan, per a NY Times report, is "pledging to deport undocumented immigrants, which could cut back temporarily on housing demand but would also most likely cut into the construction work force and eventually limit new housing supply."
He also plans to bring down interest rates, but Jerome Powell is way ahead of him on that.
You tell me, which way do you want to finance a house?

I love tennis, love it.
The U.S. Open is the ultimate event where Grand Slam sweep hopes go to die. Just ask Serena.
This year, the U.S. Open is dying, or at least the top seeds are.
Carlos Alcaraz, gone. Novak Djokovic, gone.
So the winner will, finally, for the first time in 21 years, be an American, right?
Frances Taifoe. Taylor Fritz. Tommy Paul.
The guy who beat Alcaraz, the immortal Botic van de ZandeSchulp, is already out in straight sets in his next match,
The guy who beat Djokovic is likely to be out shortly, Of course you all know Alexei Popyrin.
Not.
Italy's Jannik Sinner is still around, PED accusations notwithstanding,
Looks like Andy Roddick's place as the last American to win in Queens will stand another year.
