“As far as the police report goes, the “matter has been closed,” a spokesperson says. Gaiman’s career, meanwhile, has been marginally affected. A few pending adaptations of his novels and comics have been put on hold or cancelled. But the second season of The Sandman is set to premiere on Netflix this year, as is Anansi Boys on Amazon Prime.”

[and Good Omens starts filming later this month]

THAT’s why we should be boycotting him. That’s why we should be pressuring every studio and every actor to stop working with him. We can’t do anything about the judicial part, but his career should not have just been “marginally affected”; it should have crumbled to pieces.

Advanced searching on xiv.quest!

Using this Firefox extension!

My FFXIV script site works great if you already know exactly what you're looking for, but here's a solution for if you want to find something a little more vague. For example, the search in the screenshot says "find any time anyone except Urianger says "thou."

If you're familiar with regular expressions, this'll be pretty self-explanatory. If you're not, I'm putting a crash course under the cut to help you use this extension on the site!

Here's a basic setup for any and all searches you'll want to do:

Make sure all checkboxes are ticked (case sensitivity optional).

Put ^.* at the beginning of your expression (where it says "Type Regex here") to say "I want to see everything from the beginning of the line to my result!"

Put .*$ at the end of your expression to say "I want to see everything from my result to the end of the line!"

Type $0\n\n in the "custom template" field to put a line break in between results.

With that, you can start doing basic searches:

...but to do more complicated stuff is a little more work. Here's a small list of searches I've used myself — the useful ones written out below for those who don't want to leave Tumblr or if the link breaks, but this link to Google sheets is easier to read.

To find a specific character saying a specific word:

Format: Name:.*word

Example search: ^.*Zenos yae Galvus:.*beast.*$

Example result: Zenos yae Galvus: Man should fight for the joy of it. To live, to eat, to breed─lesser beasts snap and howl at one another for this. Only man has the wisdom and the clarity to embrace violence for its own sake.

To find a specific word said by anyone except a specific character:

Format: (?<!Name):.*word

Example search: ^.*(?<!Urianger):.*\bthou\b.*$

Example result: Ifrit: Thou art strong, mortal!

Note: Note the \b in the example search! It's not mandatory, but is very helpful in this particular case. It marks a "word boundary," so that you get results for "thou" but not for "thoughts" or "without" (basically like the "Whole Words" option in regular Ctrl+F). You can use this whenever/wherever it's helpful. Like it's not used in the above example with Zenos because I wanted it to return the plural "beasts."

To find anything said by a specific character or any of their aliases:

Format: Name\)?:

Example search: ^.*Vrtra\)?:.*$

Example result: Varshahn (Vrtra): That is all I need know of thee for now.

Note: You have to have the "Show real names" option enabled on the website for this to work!

To find any two words used in the same line:

Format: (?=.*\bword1\b)(?=.*\bword2\b)

Example search: ^.*(?=.*\bFeo Ul\b)(?=.*\bthey\b).*$

Example result: G'raha Tia: By the way, have you spoken with Feo Ul of late? Some days ago, they appeared to me in a dream─of the sleeping persuasion, that is.

Note: This looks so complicated because it will find the words in either order! Putting "they" before "Feo Ul" would work exactly the same.

You can keep these examples as templates to use for yourself without having to understand how they work by using the extension's built-in Profiles, and just swapping in the words you want to search:

...but the possibilities really open up if you want to learn how they work! You can combine the above examples in different ways and built your own profiles. I have other tabs in the Google Sheet linked above for learning how to use regex, and the Firefox extension itself includes a cheat sheet under the "Help" button which is super useful!

David Tennant talking about reading the S3 scripts at the Angels, Demons and Doctors con in Germany, 5.5.2024 (from official.gingerkat tiktok <3)

Q: So I read in an interview that Neil said you read the first three episodes. I don't want spoilers, but I do want to know what you thought of it. Like, do you think we will be-

David: It's awful. It's all going to shit. No, it's... what can I tell you? I can't wait. I can't wait to start.

Q: Are you satisfied with the third season?

David: Well, I don't know where it's going. I've only read the first half. Although I have read the final scene. He's already written it. I know.

Q: Do you change costumes a lot?

David: Do I change- what, in the final scene? I don't know what I can... I literally can't... obviously, I literally can't tell you anything. I can't tell you anything. But uhm, I think... I think, well, I'm very satisfied. I'm very pleased, and I can't wait to start again. All I'm sad about is that it's the final one because we'd be happy to go back to that every two years for the rest of my life, I think. But, yeah, it's definitely heading towards something.
