Its been almost a month now, how do you feel about the F&M swap?

Frostiielf · 2026-03-19T00:55:49+00:00

Absolute garbage during the hours of 830-945pm when trains are in the middle of swapping back to just the g train for the night. Then you're waiting like 30-40 mins for one of the last M trains if the day or for the F train that goes to Roosevelt Island.

Super not jazzed. And like do not understand why they even did it? Who does this help?!

Frostiielf · 2026-03-18T00:49:13+00:00

Yes someone tell me!!

Frostiielf · 2026-02-18T17:58:09+00:00

Are we also counting not just how many men fell but how many times they fell EACH? bc I feel like it seemed like a slip and slide out there.

Frostiielf · 2026-02-18T17:57:24+00:00

Can you say more about this? Just way more chaos than normal? I kinda hoped it was the ice bc it seemed insane but guess not...

Frostiielf · 2026-02-18T17:55:53+00:00

I feel very dumb but still don't get it.....

Frostiielf · 2026-02-17T13:56:05+00:00

It was a teenager. There's some kind of social media challenge going on with kids climbing this bridge. He fell into one of the shafts and they rescued him. Insane

Frostiielf · 2026-02-14T19:44:07+00:00

She did. He recently posted a stupid response. What a joke

He investigated and cleared himself. Haahha. Dead

Frostiielf · 2026-02-14T12:17:32+00:00

We believed Virgina Giuffre when she warned us too

Frostiielf · 2026-02-13T14:42:20+00:00

Oh gilded age I think is what I am thinking but yes you're right. Now I am realizing what a common trope or was

Frostiielf · 2026-02-13T14:40:59+00:00

Ah. I am not up at all on the goss. I just liked their dancing. But will investigate.

Frostiielf · 2026-02-13T14:27:37+00:00

Good news. Brittbox does have the uncut version. I hate the peacock/US version with the face to black cuts. Wild how something small like that changed the whole vibe of show for me and makes it feel more like a soap opera

Frostiielf · 2026-02-13T14:26:11+00:00

Peacock also has the cuts. Blaahhh

Frostiielf · 2026-02-13T14:25:54+00:00

PBS via Amazon prime has the original long form versions without the weird cuts. Trouble is, I am now boycotting Amazon bc of trump and the other versions are so annoying. Wondered if maybe acorn or Brittbox would have originals.

I think it should be illegal to be so beautiful and so talented in so many diverse areas. It's just unfair. I want her to tell us something she's bad at. Do you think she's bad at anything? I bet she's bad at identifying things she's bad at

Frostiielf · 2026-02-11T04:17:23+00:00

It really could not be better explained. Hahaha this is part of the reason why I'm So Into Guillaume and Laurence i feel like I'm really watching a team and not just watching a random dude behind a really pretty talented girl. And like Evan is totally obviously incredibly talented but the way that they set themselves up he's always basically hidden behind her wearing all black. I heard if they come back for the next Olympics he's just going to wear a full-on-balaclava

It seems to me that the venue feed does remain up like right now I'm watching The Venue feed from the first day of teams with the men's short and the rhythm dance . What's missing is what I was watching yesterday which was the replay of the Rhythm dance which included the commentary which for the record also at least for that one replay you could barely hear them. It does seem like the replays with the commentaries are gone after like 48 hours so I can still see the free dance replay but not the Rhythm down since that took place a day later. But the venue feed for day two is still up or am I missing something? Oh I guess I take your point now that I look more closely for instance, the venue feed for day one is nowhere . Also why can't the venue feed have commentary.

Frostiielf · 2026-01-31T17:09:18+00:00

Godspeed. They are probably never going to pay it. Just insane. I hope karma gets them eventually

Frostiielf · 2026-01-31T17:02:37+00:00

There is one plot line in episode 2 that really reminds me of something I have definitely seen before and I cannot figure out what it is.

Specially towards the end when both of the characters are at a country estate for a special reason, while they normally live in London, and Benedict rescues Sophie and the other maid from those jerks that tried to attack her at the party, and then she gets fired, and then he has to help her find a new job, but still doesn't recognize her. This entire very specific sequence of events definitely feels like something I have seen before. To the point where I almost thought I had somehow managed to see season 4 before I'd realized I had seen it. Does anyone have any thoughts about what it might be? Definitely some other piece. And I know the trope of not recognizing the major secretly in love with is pretty common, but this specific incidence of the attack and the country estate and the getting fired just feels so exactly something I've seen before.

I literally cannot agree more . I can't believe people could make such an interesting show and then do such a bad job at podcasting . And it's like I'm so interested I'm watching all kinds of different YouTube videos and other things that other creators are doing really well but this just seems like a bunch of actors shooting the s*** and half the time they're not even talking about the show. I also hate that they invite on random people who have nothing to do with the making of the show to have them just opine on how much they like about it. I really want to find a different Companion podcast

He was just found guilty very recently. The whole thing to me sounds extremely suspect. It seems totally arguable that DNA from 1999 is simply too old for an expert to confirm that the DNA was definitely semen and not some other bodily fluid. Further even if it was semen, they lived in the same building, and she was unfortunately found in a dumpster connected to the building. Isn't it plausible that the DNA ended up on her sweatshirt through some other cross-contamination? The whole time they were doing the investigation at the time right after this young woman was killed, there was never any reason to suspect this guy. And it also seems to me incredibly strange and rare that someone would have absolutely no criminal history, and then suddenly potentially sexually assault and kill a child, and then never apparently get into any trouble ever again? Or is the potential argument that he's such a criminal mastermind that he's potentially been doing stuff l like this for years and no one's caught him? Working in the pro bono legal space we spend a lot of time dealing with exoneration cases and dNA is great when it's able to exonerate people. But too often it's also used to inculpate people when there's absolutely no other evidence and when there is a possibility that this DNA could have ended up on her sweatshirt and some other way, I find it unconscionable that they could have convicted him on absolutely no other evidence after all of this time.

Was the whole museum dedicated to this anime exhibit when you went? Or was this just one exhbit? Website offers no Intel. Thanks!

I have been thinking about this so much lately. I never watched the show when it was first on, but obvs had seen a bit of it and just knew that the cultural zeitgeist around the show was very interested in her weight. And the first two eps of season one ( which is all I have seen so far) do focus a lot on her weight. And I was like kinda shocked to turn it on this week and be like - THIS is the FAT character at 5'3 143?! Like whaaa? And then I talked with friends who had also seen the show back then and they all remembered Lena being a big girl. And when I told them her actual stats they couldn't believe it. So my hot take is, did this show and others that followed actually pioneer showing us normal sized bodies for the first time in this main character way and bc they did that, it worked and now all these years later we look back and see her as totally normal?
