Yes, only S1 was from the book. S2 and the finale/S3 is new material but Neil Gaiman said it was something he and Pratchett had planned/talked about. S3 was in development when Gaiman's allegations came out so instead of a full season to wrap it up they made it just 1 longer episode, which I think is unfortunate as I've loved the series.

Yeah that's one of the issues that keep getting him a lot of hate I think. But from my understanding their relationship was fine. IIRC Janet confirmed that she told him he could apologize for himself but not to say anything on her behalf, so that's what he did. But that was 20+ years ago so I might be misremembering.

At least online, this past year or two, maybe not fully cancelled but got a lot of hate. Since his last album/tour a lot of comments are saying that his success has only been by stepping on successful women. Things that get brought up a lot is the Superbowl "wardrobe malfunction" and people seem to think he threw Janet under the bus (which I don't think he did and his and Janet's relationship was fine), and also his relationship with Britney from 25+ years ago. Britney also released a book which probably didn't paint him in a good light.

Justin Timberlake. I’m in my mid 30s now so I don’t follow celebrity gossip as much as I did in my tween years but from what I’ve seen he didn’t do anything too bad? The DUI was really stupid but I thought that was mild compared to a lot of celebrities. Felt more like it was cool to hate him cos he’s been famous for a bit but no longer at the top. But I still think he’s a fantastic performer and some of the new songs are great.

I have a 3 month old baby girl. Even my own mum keeps saying “she looks like a boy” when I dress her in things that are not girly. It’s a baby. She looks like a baby. And the clothes were pretty much gender neutral in my opinion

I was in a car accident. On my way back to the office from lunch out and this woman made a left turn from the opposite side in front of me. I basically t-boned her at 50-55mph. We were both okay, just shocked, but our cars were blocking the intersection. She kept saying I was going too fast and that she was driving home from church. I just sat down on the sidewalk waiting for cops and tow truck to show up. Funny enough I remember, even though my car couldn’t go anywhere, I turned off the engine, got out, and still locked the car.

I had to hitch a ride with the tow truck to their office so I at least had some shelter (middle of summer with no shade around) and wait for a taxi to pick me up. The other woman had her husband pick her up.

No idea. But it wasn’t Taylor Swift who I commented on. It was years ago now and I don’t remember who, but it was before the eras tour. I’m not sure when Taylor started using “eras” though

The one time I got called a boomer online was because I didn’t understand why artists have “eras” now instead of just albums. I think at the time an artist removed all posts from their socials and the comments are “new era coming soon?” And I asked if that just means they’re dropping a new album

I think Matt Damon’s wife was a waitress or bartender? They met while she was working

No, but walkable places would probably have public transport access as well? If so I'd take the bus. I think I generally consider 15-20 minutes to be "walkable" if I need to go often (train/metro stations, grocery stores). For the occasional trips I'd consider 1 hour walk one way. Anything longer I would probably skip or find alternative ways to get there (including taxis/ride shares)

Rescuers found the man stuck inside the middle portion of the slide in a crouched position — both head and feet first.

How do you even get into that position…

That’s so funny! How did the topic even come about??

 

Hi all, just wondering if there’s anyone interested in becoming a mod here? It’s a very small community so it doesn’t require much. All I’ve done is basically create weekly discussion posts (which I’ve actually forgotten). It can probably be scheduled with an app but last time I did that it posted 3x every week and I haven’t made the effort to fix it.

I have personal things I need to take care of so I wouldn’t be able to be online as much in the next few weeks or months, so any help is appreciated!

 

Happy New Year everyone! Hope you all had a good New Years/break.

 

I've been using intuitive F2L but would like to be more efficient. I've watched a few example solves but I'm finding it hard to learn just by watching solves. So if anyone has a good F2L solutions/resource they're able to share, I'd really appreciate it!

 

Apologies for the late post!

 

News is a couple days old but I hadn’t seen it earlier. Heartbreaking.
