Hello and welcome to the latest edition of the Giant Bomb Community Spotlight. I, @zombiepie, am once again honored to be your host as we look back at the best user-created offerings from the last week! Well, I am now fully vaccinated. As a member of the teaching profession I was able to get both doses and while there may have been bumps along the way, I am eternally grateful to those in the medical profession that both helped in creating the vaccine and in distributing it. I say all of this as a reminder of everyone's personal duty to get vaccinated whenever possible and with the support of their medical practitioner. Yes, getting the vaccine does not entitle you to no longer invest in social distancing or face mask mandates. However, this pandemic highlights a grave need for everyone to fight against vaccine hesitancy and stand in support of science. Certainly, more can be done to distribute the vaccine equitably and it is a travesty that communities that most need it are struggling to get it. Yet, by working together there is hope and it is through that collective effort that I end my introduction as we transition to the site-related housekeeping.

Giant Bomb Community Endurance Run
Giant Bomb Community Endurance Run XI Announcement Thread (By: @thatpinguino)
It's that time of the year again! It is time to get excited about the Giant Bomb spring-time community charity effort, the Giant Bomb Community Endurance Run! This year, the event is returning to its previous charity, Pencils of Promise! Pencils of Promise is an educational charity that works to promote literacy and access to clean water in Ghana, Guatemala, Laos and Nicaragua. You can read more about the event and how you can join or donate using the link above! Also, I'm going to link to my donation page as well.
If you have enjoyed the Community Spotlight feature, please consider donating to help me reach my fundraising goal!

Nothing kicks your week of better than a little body horror! I had to start my week off with this, and now so do you. (@GBDudersFeed) pic.twitter.com/nwJFtIcD1i

What else can I say to this image other than I'd like to see a Steam Workshop mod that allows me to play Deus Ex with this picture superimposed on JC Denton's face. I need it and I think we all need it.
