There are plenty of serials in the traditional television half-hour format (ever hear about anime?). Mando episodes clock in between 30 and 50 minutes, which this one did. I dont really see anything to get that upset about. If the episode is bad, thats one thing (I havent seen it yet), but runtime does not determine the quality. 33 minutes is plenty of time to get a satisfying season finale. If you dont think D+ is worth your sub, then cancel and be done with it.

Been building some Gundam Wing gunpla, so I picked up and am about halfway through GW: Glory to the Losers manga.

Novels I have been oscillating between this year are the Frank Herbert Dune novels and the Dresden Files series (Ill have to check out that other series mentioned in this topic. Earlier this month I finished God Emperor of Dune and am currently on the 11th Dresden Files novel (Turn Coat). All first-time reads.

Next on the docket is Fingersmith (recently watched for the first time and loved The Handmaiden), The Hobbit, and Lord of the Rings. I havent read The Hobbit since freshman year of high school and Ive never read Lord of the Rings despite saying Ive wanted to for years.

I won't say voter suppression isn't a thing because it absolutely is. However, between early voting and mail-in voting I personally have not come across someone who legitimately wanted to vote and could not. Jobs and lines make it harder to vote, not impossible. Many people skip out because it isn't convenient, not because they want to vote and literally can't.

No, to get the price of one night it would be total cost divided by total nights. Total nights is is the summation of everyones stay. So if you have 20 people staying two nights, the total nights would be 20 x 2 = 40.

Id charge everyone $200 if I were you. Easy math. Maybe it isnt completely fair to people only staying one night, but you are renting a house and thats how renting a house goes.

I have a 10-year-old son who I drive to school every morning, and lately his most frequent topic of conversation on those rides is how ineffective he thinks the school shooter procedures are. Yesterday he pointed out the parts of the fence that someone could jump over. Today he told me that the closet is the first place a shooter would look so why do they have to hide in there. I told him it's so you dont get shot through the window. It's fucking depressing.
Really sad these are the things a 10 year old is thinking about. When I was 10, I couldn't even conceptualize shooting defenses and where is the best place I could hide vs where would a shooter look first.

Depending on how many episode each season is, you could stop season 2 at the point where Abby and Ellie have their standoff at the theatre.

Season 3 can then kick off with Abby's side of those events.
I guess, but if you do that you need to film seasons 2 and 3 at the same time as all of those events happen simultaneously. You don't want 1-2 years between filming.

I dunno how the law works in this case or what he can be charged with. If the lawyer is the same guy for all four saying this, yeah, it is completely full of shit to say it wasnt rape.
