In the new "Spider-Man 2" Playstation 5 game, the mortgage on Aunt May's house is revealed. Fans online are losing their minds over the eye-watering sum, but is our favorite web-slinging superhero's mortgage loan really that bad? During one scene in the new video game, Parker and his flame, MJ Watson, return to Aunt May's house in Forest Hills. AdvertisementAdvertisementThe game's developer, Insomniac, thankfully gave us a hand in figuring out what kind of loan Peter is facing. Angelo Gionis, senior vice president at Contour Mortgage, told Insider that while he wouldn't say it was a super deal, Spider-Man's mortgage was fair — if it was actually a second mortgage Aunt May took out.

Photo: Bob Adelman1968In 1968, a group called the SoHo Artists Association formed in order to help legalize loft living in manufacturing buildings. The reputations of these dealers helped cement the neighborhood as the center of the New York art world, though SoHo remained, in some ways, sparse. In 1996, the SoHo Grand Hotel opened on West Broadway (the Mercer would open the following year).

Reality and fantasy were deeply intertwined in Marvel’s Spider-Man, where gamers swung from webs above Lincoln Center and leaped from the Empire State Building’s spire into the crowds leaving the subway station at Herald Square. The comic book icon also brought his own landmarks to that version of New York City, which hosted the Avengers headquarters a few blocks north of the United Nations and a supervillain prison in the East River. The designers at Insomniac Games are now expanding the superhero’s jurisdiction beyond Manhattan for the sequel, to be released for the PlayStation 5 on Oct. 20. Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 swells into Queens and Brooklyn (including Coney Island attractions), testing a design team responsible for nearly doubling the real estate of the 2018 original. The game’s design director, Josue Benavidez, said his research involved contacting organizations like the Center for Brooklyn History, posting on Reddit groups devoted to the borough and calling businesses near the buildings he was studying.

Between these poles are all forms of social media; and, on a different continent but still the same planet, reviews printed in the font you’re reading now. When it comes to all of the above, James McBride takes a page from Herman Melville’s short story “Bartleby, the Scrivener.” Like the titular clerk, McBride prefers not to — in his case, read reviews. I’m grateful that people read the work. If you’re writing about humans, you’ve got to be around humans. The big secret to writing good books is to stay around people, and not stay around what they write on the internet.”

Even for account managers like Emma, the money could be "life-changing," she said, adding that she sometimes earned more than $10,000 a month off just 2% commission. Many OnlyFans models (including Unruly clients) offer a free feed of photos. They can add a larger "tip" to be added to an influencer's VIP area to get unlimited chatting (often between $100 and $200 for Unruly models). For instance, it's free to subscribe to Rao's OnlyFans account, but she charges between $5 and $99 for fans to "unlock posts." At the time, Gathrite was dating Jessica Sunok, a model who started an OnlyFans account in May 2019, and who he began to manage.
