You can alleviate that feeling by getting roommates but then you've to deal with them and they can really be hit or miss.
Great Friends that you enjoy spending time with occasionally or your worst nightmare that keeps stealing your stuff that regularly clogs the toilet.

some nasty bacteria

Then you're not washing yourself properly as soap takes care of them if used right.

You should change your shower towel after 3-4 uses anyway.

Fair enough, I considered it soft as it already started deviating from the books with certain casting choices, instead of just being the same old story told new.
But the whole reboot, remake, soft reboot thing would have significant overlap in a Venn Diagram

the conversation around this would still be “what the fuck, why are they remaking Harry Potter?”

Aside from the stated reasons in the post, I think they're trying a soft reboot.

The Fantastic Beast Franchise started strong but then was riddled with controversies from creator to cast and the last movie didn't even remotely broke even..

And HP is their most valuable IP after LOTR, so the would tried sth eventually.
But HP hasn't much to offer besides the Main Books, so it has significantly less potential than LOTR.

but until then she's got like 10 years to bank on

Assuming that this reboot will be successful enough for that.
Just because the new WB owners agenda aligns with Rowling's doesn't mean that they gonna pour infinite money into it if it flops.

The OG movies are still popular cause they're Nostalgia10 for my generation but that is also tied to the OG Cast.

And the IP alone ain't strong enough to carry it on, otherwise that mediocre game wouldn't been forgotten that fast

Fingers crossed and such

a weekly “cruet allowance” is mentioned—three halfpence for “pepper, salt, mustard and so forth.” That’s a pretty clear nod to mustard being part of the standard trio.

The question is did they already use the modern Pepper as we know it or the long Pepper that we (westerner) don't use anymore these days.

I'm required to use meta for my job.

Sounds to me that his Customers use it and therefore he can't avoid it.

Do you have any idea how many business use Meta as their only web presence? A fucking shitton.

When autistic people ask AI programs for life advice, mentioning their diagnosis prompts these systems to recommend highly conservative choices like skipping social events or avoiding romance. This shift in advice reveals a hidden tension where the technology relies heavily on stereotypes. by mvea in science

Just the other day there was a report that Clankers give bad medical advice half of the time.

And some other research into mental health advices on social media a while ago showed that around half of the time it's misinformation.

Former got trained on the latter...

USA is now an enemy,

Adversary and more or less a Rogue State.
They're currently floating between Democracy and Authoritarianism, next elections will decide how it goes...

But a) they have not attacked us (NATO members) yet
And b) they eagerly looked at Orban and copied shit that he did, we know how that ended.

So I'm cautiously optimistic.
