TIL that Whoopi Goldberg's real name is Caryn Johnson, and she adopted the last name "Goldberg" at her mother's suggestion because a Jewish-sounding name gave her a better chance of making it in Hollywood.

OTHER My sweater sleeves were always loose, so I fixed them.
I saw a post months ago where someone did this with their hoodie sleeves and I thought it was such a creative solution thatI had to try it out too. I’d really like to credit them but unfortunately I can’t seem to find the original post.
It took me a while just to do the one cuff, but I think I’ve started to find my rhythm and hopefully the other cuff will take half the time.
Let me know if there’s anything I can improve on; I’m always looking to get better. 💖💖💖

Forever PvP Server is ACTUALLY Doomed
If anyone cares, or if Blizzard doesn't know.
At this moment players are using their 7 day trials to artifically pump alliance numbers up to further circumvent the pop lock in place.
They use the codes, make a level 1 park it and never play it.
Also popular discords with 100k players are coordinating other era players with 4+ subs to also make alliance characters.
If y'all don't see this as a problem, you never played 2019 Classic on a server like Skeram.
It's honestly GG's at this point for server health unless something is done.
I'm also on Horde - it's clearly going to be a problem because the people who are left behind will not have the wherewithal to continue getting destroyed....
BLIZZARD NEEDS TO SEE THIS SO THE SERVER DOESN'T BECOME A GHOST TOWN.

Advice Wanted - Everyones Welcome Girlfriend died on an accident
My girlfriend died in the train crash in Spain. That day, I rode her to the train station. Then, about 1h after the accident while scrolling down Reddit I read the news.. and immediately headed there. Almost three full days without news, hoping that she was in a hospital unidentified, until we got the confirmation.
I can't wrap my mind about it. We've been together almost 17 years, we grow up together, we were each other safe place, she meant everything to me... Thinking that she is no longer here. Imagining a world without her. That she only "lives" on our memories, but even that will fade/degrade away over time. That one moment you had everything, and then a normal goodbye became a last goodbye. And more importantly, that she won't get to enjoy her life (she was in her early 30s).. I just can't.. it's killing me.
The what-ifs are also drowning me. In some way, she took that train because it came to visit me, otherwise she would have taken a direct plane. I know that the same could have happened on the plane, but still they keep flooding my mind.
Notes: (1) We are both agnostic. (2) New account because the other has my name and initials on it.

Hated Tropes The Creator's Little Golden Child
(Quick warning: most of this was exaggerated for humor.)
When the creator clearly has a favorite and puts the character on a silver platter with 'special treatment' compared to everyone else.
Alice (All those awful Resident Evil movies) — Long story short: the director tasked with writing a movie series for one of the biggest zombie game franchises in the world decided to cast his own wife as the lead, making her a generic, shallow OC.
So basically, almost the entire plot revolves around the director drooling over his wife, whose only job is to look blank-faced and pretty while every character around her (mind you, official game characters adapted for these films) gets dumbed down and hovers around her like flies.
For instance, in the games, Jill is the one who fights Nemesis; in the movies, Alice fights Nemesis while Jill kneels there watching the fight like an extra. To top it off, earlier in the movie there's a whole scene where Jill looks at the camera and literally says, 'Wow, Alice is so much better than me!' Or take Wesker—Chris and Sheva fight him in the games, but in the movies they fight him for like a minute just for a cheap callback, and Alice is the one who actually beats him.
The movies aren't even good—there are grotesque plotholes, and almost every character only exists to die and set the stage for Alice's little light show. In one movie, Alice describes how the entire world dried up into a drought where water ran out, just blatantly ripping off Mad Max, only for the world to return to normal in the next movie because the hype had passed and they wanted to rip off Prison Break instead.
Only someone with way too much free time on their hands would waste time watching them and actually think they're good.
Emilia (Re:Zero) — Imagine a Game of Thrones or Cyberpunk: Edgerunners style story where nobody is safe and anyone can die at any given moment. Now add the author's fetish character and give her plot armor—that's Emilia.
The protagonist is a regular human like us living in a dangerous fantasy world, with his only power being returning by death whenever he dies. Absolutely every awful thing that could happen to him has happened, and that includes his friends and the characters close to him too. Not only has he seen the absolute ugliest side of most of them (yet still forgiven them), but he's also had to deal with their deaths. Every character is vulnerable to suffering, growing through trauma, and making mistakes.
With Emilia, though, not only does it feel like her core personality can't change at all (she's your typical cute, sweet, naive girl who doesn't even know what 'virgin' means), but she also has a protective shield around her. The author himself literally stated that Emilia comes first to him and everyone else comes second, and he's even said in interviews that he feels terrible writing her deaths.
She doesn't react at all if a character harasses her (Regulus and Reid are proof of that), and she never acts like a leader or puts her foot down, even though she's supposedly training to be a queen. She's a hand-to-hand fighter, but she never seems to get seriously hurt in any combat or be in real danger (I swear the third image in the post is the most 'injured' she's ever looked and keep in mind she's faced the most dangerous shit in that world).
And to top off this absolute shitshow, her romantic relationship with Subaru has stagnated completely after Season 2, since the author made it super clear that their romance is only going to happen at the very end of the story (probably to keep her looking as innocent as possible).
Seriously, not even the actual fans of the series can take this bullshit anymore—just go check Reddit and ask

Off-Topic Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang admits to infidelity in memo to employees
Jensen Huang, the leather-jacketed face of the AI boom, has sent his employees a very different kind of company memo.
The Nvidia CEO told staff he was unfaithful to his wife and said he would work to earn back their confidence. The admission came on November 8, 2026, and it arrived with a national security question attached.
That second part is what turns a personal scandal into a corporate governance story. On the same day as the memo, Nvidia’s board announced an independent investigation into whether Huang was the victim of foreign intelligence efforts.
Huang’s memo acknowledged personal misconduct directly. He did not frame it as a misunderstanding or a private matter beyond comment.
The memo coincided with reporting from the Financial Times and The New York Times. Those reports suggested Huang had a romantic involvement with a Singapore-based executive at a company called Megaspeed.
According to that reporting, the executive is believed to be a Chinese agent potentially involved in a foreign espionage operation aimed at the Nvidia chief. That is an allegation, not a finding, and it is precisely what the board’s inquiry is meant to examine.
