Have the many millions of dollars spent on election campaigns got out of hand? And should it be limited by law? — Anthony Rhodes, Dover, Britain Shane: The amount of money in American campaigns keeps spiraling upward year after year — and there is no end in sight. What’s interesting is that the spending is being driven by both mega contributors and a deluge of small donors. In the first three days that Vice President Kamala Harris was a candidate for president, for instance, mostly small contributors gave $173 million through the online donation portal ActBlue to Democratic causes and candidates. There is not really any chance to curb this explosion of political money and spending, barring a constitutional amendment. The Supreme Court has broadly determined that money amounts to free speech and must be protected, and has steadily eroded limits that Congress had previously put in place.

Dress to Impress, released last year, has quickly become one of [Roblox’s most popular games](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRoyc_xP0T4aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyNC8wOS8xNS9zdHlsZS9kcmVzcy10by1pbXByZXNzLXJvYmxveC5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTcmZW1jPWVkaXRfbWJhZV8yMDI0MDkxNSZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD0xMzQzNzYmbmw9bW9ybmluZy1icmllZmluZzotYXNpYS1wYWNpZmljLWVkaXRpb24mcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTE3NzkwNiZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDdXA255dEIKZs_xSudmL3kdmFIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAD). The premise of the game is simple: At the beginning of each round, players are given a theme and then have five minutes to create outfits that relate to it. The game has been played more than 2.7 billion times, and around half its users are over 18, according to Roblox. Big names have gotten involved, including Charli XCX, the British singer, who collaborated with developers to release “brat”-themed outfit patterns.
