Echoing move to SNW. It has a higher budget than older Trek and follows the current trend of "mini-series" storytelling. Older Trek follows older TV rules (wanted 26 eps to a season so a lot of filler to make it so). DS9 would be my other rec with a heavy caveat that if you're not feeling an ep skip it and look it up on memory alpha later, particularly for the first season. As it goes on it gets more into the long form storytelling you'd expect with today's shows, but first few seasons can be a bit rough and there can be a long time between plots being revisited (but when they are they make it count). TNG, Voyager and TOS are mainly monster/problem of the week (Voyager kind of weakly straddles longform and episodic leaning heavily towards episodic). Out of them I'd recommend TNG outside of the first two seasons (first season is TOS scifi tales encore, second season I actually like a lot and has some good eps, but general like is a minority opinion and cast gets retooled in third season anyway).

If you don't mind kids shows also recommend Prodigy (kinda like a Trek ATLA imo).

I have a shallow dish for my cat and he still does this... He just doesn't believe seeing the bottom is natural lol.

(Before anyone says anything yes the dish is flat, I bought it for my hedgehog to eat without having to clamber and then had to swap their dishes when he discovered the shallow dish was light enough for him to toss around for fun lol)

Sometimes they just make up whole new stories (Bleach) or say fuck it and go their own way (Fullmetal Alchemist). I feel like the more accepted recent approach though is having a mini-series of an arc which has normal pacing (actually even often accelerated pacing cause they only get 12 episodes) and then just putting the show on hold.

And then you have when the anime affects the manga and the manga starts stretching the story out for "content" (feel like this happened with My Hero Academia and Welcome to Demon School! Iruma-kun). If it was a novel that's being published on a pay by chapter platform you're just completely fucked because they (generally) follow the Mark Twain model of pay per word so once a story gets popular that shit absolutely gets milked into the ground. If you're lucky they waited to do the anime until the comic adaption was half done at which point the novel will hopefully be done...

If you read the article, this isn't a rarest ending like the headline says. There is an ending playing as Lae'zel most players don't take because it's a bad ending that obviously ends the story. The ending being talked about is a hacked ending that was maybe an idea at one point to get to the above ending via an alternative path, but wasn't ultimately implemented. I wouldn't even call this an ending frankly. It's more "there's some game files that can lead to each other if X or Y is marked, but actually can't because Z being marked cuts that path off". More of a glitch than anything.

Most Olympic athletes are young and wear fashion athletic clothes donated by endorsers who help pay them. In addition in the shooting category you're (as I understand it) allowed a certain amount of tech to help you out. This man is older, didn't wear the endorsed fashion clothes or the tech and won ~~gold~~ silver so he feels like a rare "every man" win in the Olympics. He is not an "every man" (believe he's a decorated military and police man in his country), but a lot more people can relate to him winning ~~gold~~ silver than a 14 year old who's been training for this since diapers in a fashion house outfit.

Just feathers pinned to it. Was common to have overly decorated hats if you could afford it in ways we wouldn't consider fashionable today (Mrs. True's hat looks like a modern flower cake also lol). This tradition is not dead, for some modern examples check out the royal ascot races, kind of a fun/funny tradition.

Personally don't really find the snack sized Cthulhu aspect that interesting. What really interests me about them is the lore about them once being a great empire of douchebags who were overthrown by those they oppressed (gith) who then took their place politically and now hunt them down. Says a lot BG3 focused on this lore over the Cthulhu monster aspect. Just some good lore building which could have (and I'm sure has) gone to any other races.

It's not the kraft variety.

Yulo was also offered lifetime supplies of free buffets, baked mac and cheese, and chicken inasal, a grilled chicken dish, by various chain restaurants.

I know Stinky Dragon edits stuff out to keep the run time down. I assume for live streams the DMs just use the "it's dead when it narratively fits/needs to happen to stop bad rolls from dragging this out an hour" rule and players know to focus more instead of spending 30min on cock jokes after finding a cock fight that then devolves into a heist plan to free all animals in the village and make them the masters of their own fates lol.

We've got a lot of reposts though I am working on a write-up of that time a Japanese romance comic had a black heroine's reward be "you turn white".....

Faik the worry isn't from wine the emperor drank (though I think the consensus is he did take a hell of a lot of mercury as medicine believing it'd give immortality). It's the described artistic floor map of China (at the time) with the rivers of liquid mercury suggested as being real by the high mercury readings.
