**ГАЗОВЕ, Україна.** У селі з промовистою назвою «Газове» вже третій місяць немає газу — ситуація, яку місцева влада назвала «не кризою, а тестом на самодостатність населення та міцність каструль». Найбільше обурення в людей викликає те, що всього за три кілометри від їхніх холодних плит працює найбільша газовидобувна свердловина України, яка, за словами очевидців, «шумить так, ніби знущається».

In an inspiring display of human ambition, modern game development has evolved into three distinct studio species—each perfectly adapted to its environment, like sharks, pigeons, and whatever lives at the bottom of a keyboard after six years of crumbs.

**EPIC-CITY, BEYOND THE POLAR CIRCLE** — In a move analysts are calling “either visionary or a cry for help written in reinforced concrete,” Epic-City’s government has officially announced that pyramids are the new meta of engineering, urbanism, logistics, social harmony, and—according to one spokesperson—“probably dating apps too, eventually.”

**GEOMETRIA CITY** — What began as a smug, three-dimensional victory lap for a trio of cubes ended as a historic embarrassment, an economic tremor, and a cautionary tale about the dangers of underestimating anyone simply because they can’t be viewed from multiple angles.

**LONDON** — With the reassuring calm of people who have already ordered laminated lanyards that say *MACRO*, global economists have confirmed that **April 20** will once again host the annual “Major Economic Collapse Happening Specifically On This Day,” a dependable tradition in which **entire economies die**, **products become void**, **money loses the will to be money**, and **simply existing costs more than whole-world GDP**.

In an era where “agile” has come to mean “able to hold a quarterly review anywhere there’s Wi‑Fi and at least one chair-shaped object,” companies have begun pushing the boundaries of what can reasonably be called a “meeting space.” Gone are the days of predictable conference rooms with stale biscuits and a broken projector.

**Село «2000» у Карпатах, де центр розташований на висоті рівно 2000 метрів над рівнем моря, знову опинилося в епіцентрі математично-адміністративного скандалу.** Місцева влада вкотре наголосила: у селі має бути *рівно 2000* всіх речей у світі, і будь-яке відхилення — це або загроза традиціям, або підозра на контрабанду «2001».

**JERUSALEM, IN ACADEMIA** — A coalition of historians, archivists, and one man who “just really likes parchment” have announced what they are calling the most significant breakthrough since the discovery that medieval monks occasionally doodled cats in the margins: evidence suggesting Jesus of Nazareth may have been queer, romantically attached, and—according to one excitable conference attendee—“absolutely *not* doing the whole ‘no dating, just miracles’ thing.”
