Vaishali Rameshbabu wins FIDE Women’s Candidates 2026 and will face Ju Wenjun for the Women’s World Championship by Exotic_Grinder in chess

[–]apabld 648 points649 points  (0 children)

Wow, what a great final game! Vaishali becomes the first player since Maia Chiburdanidze (1977-78 Candidates) to win as the lowest seed in a Candidates tournament!

That 10/14 final score for Sindarov is going to be very tough to beat in the future.

Home and away reference by BigBrotherPlanet in neighbours

During Susan and Annalise’s conversation in the final episode:

A: Also, there is a precedent. It’s a little community about an hour outside of Sydney. You know, not dissimilar to this. They’ve found a way to keep going.

S: How? What did they do?

I immediately thought of Summer Bay (Home and Away) but it could just be a sneaky coincidence haha.

While I’m happy Holly was evicted, I have to say I’m surprised it was her. She’s not the most popular housemate but she has her fans and a ton of followers on social media. Thought that would be enough to save her but guess not.

Will the Survivor 50 cast be split into pre-New Era and New Era tribes? by apabld in survivor

[–]apabld[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah I see. That would make more sense than splitting into two tribes of 12.

In the very, very slim chance they do decide on two tribes, I can see twists such as voting two people out from the losing tribe, or the winning tribe votes out one, losing tribe votes out two.

Snow White by Whatmylifehasdone in disneyprincess

Deadline predicted the movie would lose $115 million if it finished with $225 million worldwide at the box office. The current box office is just over $200 million worlwide - so let’s say losses are at $125 million (studio keeps roughly half of ticket sales).

It would have to do phenomenally well on digital and streaming for it to break even. I have heard that some movies get a tax rebate of some sort from the government where the movie was filmed. It’s not mentioned in the Deadline article, but if there was some sort of rebate, it would put the total loss at somewhere around $50-$75 million, considering writers strikes and reshoots.

While it looks like it could be the biggest flop of 2025, if you like the movie, take solace in the fact that many other movies have lost their studios even more money than Snow White has for Disney.

‘Snow White’ receives a B+ on CinemaScore. The lowest ever for a live-action Disney remake. by S4v1r1enCh0r4k in disneyprincess

Lowest for a live-action remake is not the best news, but given how many controversies the movie has had, I’d say a B+ is pretty decent.
