    Mexico punished again for homophobic chant, will play more World Cup qualifiers without fans
    https://sports.yahoo.com/mexico-puto-chant-world-cup-qualifiers-without-fans-153948541.html
    Mexico's men's national soccer team will be forced to play two more World Cup qualifiers in empty stadiums after its fans continued yelling an anti-gay slur at matches in October. FIFA, soccer's global governing body, previously sanctioned Mexico for the infamous "p***" chant. In June, it announced that the team's first two home World Cup qualifiers would be played behind closed doors. It later halved that punishment, allowing fans to return to Mexico City's Estadio Azteca for qualifiers last month. But fans resumed the chant at those games, against Canada and Honduras. On Monday, FIFA announced another two-match stadium ban, along with dozens of other disciplinary actions against soccer federations around the world. It also fined Mexico's federation roughly $110,000. The chant has plagued Mexican soccer for years. Officials refused to reckon with it until recently. The Mexican soccer federation (FMF) promised to crack down on it in 2019, and again this year. But fans belted it during opposing goal kicks at friendlies and regional tournaments this past spring and summer. Its presence at two Olympic qualifying games in March led to the first stadium ban.

    Into the Metaverse: Where Crypto, Gaming and Capitalism Collide
    https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2021-10-30/what-is-the-metaverse-where-crypto-nft-capitalism-collide-in-games-like-axie?sref=P6Q0mxvj
    To understand why Mark Zuckerberg thinks “the metaverse” is the next frontier, consider the case of Sam Peurifoy. The 27-year-old chemistry PhD from Columbia University left his job at Goldman Sachs at the height of the pandemic and is now seeking out his fortune in crypto by playing video games. He has recruited dozens of people from Mexico to the Philippines to a “Guild” that plays under the command of “Captain” Peurifoy. In exchange, he ponies up the funds needed to enter Axie Infinity, a game where players collect Smooth Love Potion — a digital token that can potentially be converted into real money.

    S.F.'s next luxury housing project is charging $27,000 a month. It's directed at senior citizens
    https://www.sfchronicle.com/sf/article/S-F-s-next-luxury-rental-project-will-charge-16569406.php
    For the past decade, luxury rental housing built in San Francisco has targeted the young: engineers and startup entrepreneurs who made the city a global center for tech-driven wealth. But that may be changing. The city’s next luxury housing project — with two-bedroom units starting at $16,600 and topping out at $27,000 a month — is aimed not at 30-somethings with IPO riches but rather wealthy seniors old enough to be their grandparents.

    QAnon Influencer Who Accuses Democrats of Being Pedophiles Is Identified as Convicted Child Molester Designated as ‘Sexually Violent Offender’
    https://lawandcrime.com/awkward/qanon-influencer-who-accuses-democrats-of-being-pedophiles-is-identified-as-convicted-child-molester-designated-as-sexually-violent-offender/
    A QAnon influencer who accuses Democratic Party politicians of being pedophiles has been identified in two reports as a registered child sex offender. David Todeschini, 70, goes by the name of “David Trent” online where his thousands of fans listen to him opine on any number of conspiracy theories related to the broader QAnon movement. “Why this country hasn’t risen up and hung these bastards by now is beyond me,” Todeschini said in a September video complaining about federal vaccine mandates. “These treasonous rat bastards need to be taken out of Washington, D.C. I say get all the children out and nuke it.” According to RightWingWatch, a project of People for the American Way, the title of that video describes President Joe Biden as a “Cho-mo,” which, the outlet says, is “prison slang for a pedophile.” RightWingWatch first reported that David Todeschini was the real name behind the pseudonym David Trent. . . . On May 19, 1999, the QAnon adherent and influencer was convicted of one count each of sexual abuse in the first degree and sodomy in the second degree for coercing an 8-year-old boy into sexual activity in 1996. He was given a sentence of 28 months to seven years in state prison. The convicted child molester ultimately served a five-year sentence. Todeschini had no known prior relationship with his victim.
