Here we go, folks. The Dungeon Crawler Carl television series has been officially greenlit at Peacock.

I’m happy to announce that our friends at Peacock have officially greenlit the Dungeon Crawler Carl television series! Me, Chris Yost, and Seth MacFarlane and his team at Fuzzy Door are all really excited to get to work. In the coming weeks I'll have more details, and if you're going to SDCC be sure to catch me and Chris on our DCC panel, but in the meantime I wanted to thank you, the fans, for helping make this happen. (/end official statement) And here we are. We are greenlit. The series has been ordered. It's actually happening. I have NO more info to give right now, but in the coming days I suspect there will be a firehose of information coming down the pipeline. This has been a multi-year process just to get to this point, and we have cleared every single hurdle to get here because of YOU GUYS. So thank you. submitted by /u/hepafilter to r/DungeonCrawlerCarl [link] [comments]

Does anyone else feel like they're constantly "behind" in their 20s?

I'm 22F, and lately I've been feeling like everyone around me has their life figured out except me. Some friends are building careers, some are preparing for higher studies, some are in long-term relationships, and a few even seem financially independent already. ​ Meanwhile, I'm still trying to figure out what I actually want. Social media doesn't help because every scroll makes it look like everyone is progressing faster. ​ I know comparison is unhealthy, but it's difficult not to do it. ​ Do people in their mid or late 20s eventually stop feeling this way, or is this just a normal part of being in your 20s in India? I'd genuinely like to hear honest experiences. ​ submitted by /u/Particular_Orchid139 to r/TwentiesIndia [link] [comments]

Show HN: I crunched the day's tech news into a 3-minute read

There's too much on the internet to keep up with tech and AI. Hundreds of stories a day across dozens of sources, and most of it is noise.

So I built scrunch.fyi... every day it covers what happened in the world of tech and AI, crunched into a 3-minute read: what happened, why it matters. Every item links its source.

"crunch" the noise down to what matters.

Free to read, no signup. Feedback welcome, especially on what you'd cut or add.

We’ve lowered the bar for customer service way too much.

I understand service jobs can be incredibly stressful. I too am a service worker, and have been for 15 years.

But somewhere along the way, we’ve started acting like customers should accept openly rude, dismissive, or hostile behavior because the employee might be having a bad day or something.

Everyone has bad days. Most jobs still require a baseline level of professionalism.

I’m not saying workers should be fake cheerful, tolerate abuse, or “the customer is always right.” But if a server rolls their eyes when asked for something, a cashier acts annoyed that a customer exists, or an employee treats basic questions like an inconvenience, that’s still poor service.

Why are you mad I’m here asking for a coffee? Isn’t that your job? I would never give my customers the kind of attitude I get from some service workers these days.

We’ve become so focused on empathizing with workers that we’ve forgotten customers deserve basic courtesy too.

HELP why is this happening? and how do i fix it??

Our outdoor cat (Waffles) has been getting attacked by these birds for weeks now. We constantly run outside, throw shoes, and yell at them to scare them away. But, the birds don’t care. They do this all day long, and they’re RELENTLESS. Even if Waffles hides under a car, the birds will dive under the car. Waffles even got a little cut on her face a couple weeks ago, yet she doesn’t want to come inside for shelter. I tried to bring her in, but she likes the outside. Why does this keep happening? I think they’re blue jays? Why doesn’t Waffles fight back? Has anyone experienced this before? How do I make it stop? EDIT: Thank you everyone for all the advice and suggestions. I know the obvious answer is to put her inside, but it’s not that easy. Waffles used to be an indoor cat until she started peeing everywhere and scratching things up. She also does not get along with the other cat. For context, This is my boyfriend’s mom’s house, and I just moved in. I’ve never had a cat before… nonetheless, cared and loved one - so before you call me stupid and ignorant just know that with being a cat mom, I actually am 🥲 Also… I did ask bf’s mom if we can bring her inside. I’m still waiting for her response, as it’s not my place to make those kind of decisions around here. submitted by /u/yummycrunchygrapes to r/cats [link] [comments]

Tire was just punctured by 6 of these, we can’t figure out what it is…

It seems deliberate based on the spacing of them in the tire, but I can’t find anything online. I can’t tell what they are after they were pulled out, especially! Thanks! submitted by /u/devinjf15 to r/whatisit [link] [comments]

My boyfriends one towel system is actually making me lose my mind

I moved in with my boyfriend about six months ago and I thought we had the big stuff figured out. We agree on rent and chores and what to watch on Netflix but we have hit a wall over something I never expected. Towels. I have a normal system. I have a microfiber wrap for my hair so it doesnt frizz and a soft bamboo towel for my face to avoid breakouts and a big plush one for my body. I change them every couple of days because damp fabric is basically a petri dish for bacteria. I thought this was just basic adulting but apparently I am living with a caveman who thinks a single towel is a lifetime commitment.

He uses one towel for everything. I mean everything. He uses it for his face and his feet and his gym sweat and then hangs it back up in a crumpled heap in a bathroom with zero ventilation. It stays damp for eighteen hours a day and has developed this specific sour smell that I can detect from the hallway. When I brought it up he looked at me like I was the crazy one. His logic is that since he only uses it when he is "clean" from the shower the towel stays clean forever. I tried to explain the concept of dead skin cells and fungal growth but he just shrugged it off. He thinks I am being "extra" because I have more than one piece of fabric in the bathroom.

It got worse last week when I realized he hasnt washed that specific grey towel in at least three weeks. I practicaly had to peel it off the hook. When I threw it in the laundry he actually got annoyed because he said I was ruining the "break in" period and now he had to use a fresh one that wasnt as absorbent. I am sitting here doing thirty step skincare routines to keep my skin clear and then I watch him wipe his face with a rag that has probably developed its own ecosystem and then he wonders why he gets occasional back acne. It is like trying to explain color to a blind person. He just does not see the grime.

I have tried to be subtle about it. I bought him a nice set of high quality towels and labeled them. I even tried the "health angle" about staph infections but he just laughs it off and says his immune system needs the workout. The argument always loops back to the same thing. He thinks I am a victim of marketing and I think he is a walking biohazard. I catch myself staring at his towel rack with actual disgust now. It has become this weird focal point of our relationship where I feel like his mother and his roommate at the same time.

The other night I saw him use his "everything towel" to wipe a spill off the floor and then he just hung it right back up next to my face towel. I almost packed my bags right then and there. I ended up just moving my stuff to the guest bathroom but he didn't even notice the hint. He just thinks he has more space for his damp rag now. I am starting to think that some men just lack the sensory input to realize they are living in a swamp. I am going to buy a UV light tomorrow just to show him the horror but I already know he will just say the glowing spots are "character." It is a lost cause.

Am I being trolled, or do some men genuinely not wash their a**?

Men of Reddit!!!!!!! I am begging y’all to lock in because I just got hit with the most diabolical information. I keep seeing videos of men saying they don’t wash their butt in the shower because it’s “gay,” and I genuinely need to know if this is a loud minority situation or if there are actually grown men out here refusing to wash their own cheeks. Like, are y’all deadass? Because when I shower, I’m washing EVERYTHING. Legs, feet, armpits, behind the ears, the coochie, the crack the WHOLE establishment is getting pressure washed. Meanwhile some of y’all are telling me you’re standing under the water like a rotisserie chicken and calling it hygiene?

And another thing, do y’all wash your legs? Because apparently that’s a debate too, and I didn’t even know it was a debate. Are y’all actively scrubbing them, or are you trusting the shampoo runoff to clock in and do a full shift? And if you’re one of the people who doesn’t wash your butt, I genuinely need to understand the lore. Why? Do you think it’s dirty because that’s literally the part you’re supposed to be cleaning? Do you think it’s gay? Because respectfully, I’d rather a man be a little zesty and smell like Dove than be straight and smell like the backrooms. No judgment (okay, maybe a little judgment🤢🤮), but I need answers. Do y’all wash your butt? Do y’all wash your legs? If not, what exactly is the game plan here? My entire worldview is hanging on by a thread.
