SALT LAKE CITY This pandemic holiday season is unlike anything we have ever experienced before.
It is a well-known fact that depression is linked to social isolation, and it typically increases around the winter holidays anyway, but this year we are adding masks, COVID-19 restrictions, quarantines, stay-at-home orders, family conflicts over gatherings, cold weather, dark days with less sunlight, and end-of-year deadlines. This time of year will be especially hard on people who are dealing with job loss, loss of income, divorce, separation from loved ones or mental health issues.
A School of Public Health study this summer found that the COVID-19 pandemic in the U.S. has more than tripled the prevalence of depression symptoms from 8.5% of adults before the pandemic to 27.8% over the summer. The numbers during the 2020 holiday season are expected to be even higher.

Sunday was like Christmas Day come early for the close-knit Snyder Cut community. A stable of steady Snyder Cut streamers who host daily and weekly DC talk shows banded together to pull off a day-long Deck the Hall of Justice celebration for all things
Justice League. The streams set a goal of raising money for the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, a charity that is very close to the hearts of Zack and Debbie Snyder. And to help drum up awareness for the streams, Snyder himself spent the bulk of the day popping in and out of shows, interacting with hosts and fans and sharing all sorts of fun bits of information.

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice for possible IMAX re-releases ahead of
Justice Leagueâs drop. So when might we see a JL trailer, to increase the hype?
Justice League Snyder Cut Movement Has Raised Over Half A Million Dollars For Suicide Prevention
Many of the fans calling for and supporting the release of Zack Snyder s Justice League are part of the cause for more than a singular purpose of seeing a DC Comics movie. Many of the social media participants who bill themselves as a group under #ReleaseTheSnyderCut are doing their part in raising money and awareness for the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. The charitable efforts stem from the tragic loss of Snyder s daughter Autumn while he was working on the
Justice League movie. Now, Snyder s fans have raised more than $500,000 for the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention.
