Disney Devastates Fans By Canceling Popular Streaming Series After Just Two Seasons
It's been seven month long months since audiences last saw the popular Disney+ series, Goosebumps, deliver its second season.
Sadly, according to Disney's recent decision to not move forward with the series, it also seems that Season 2 will also happen to be Goosebumps' last.
Based on the popular young adult horror series by R.L. Stine, Goosebumps also marked the second TV adaptation of Stine's books, following the cult favorite 1995 TV series that ran for four seasons on Fox Kids.
While its television predecessor became known for delivering succinct spooky tales with each new episode, 2023's Goosebumps abandoned the weekly anthology approach of its precursor, focusing instead on a single self-contained story over the course of each new season.
Featuring Justin Long in Season 1 and David Schwimmer in Season 2 (subtitled The Vanishing), Goosebumps premiered on Disney+ on October 13, 2023.
Despite each season earning mostly positive reviews from critics, the media company decided not to green-light another installment of the younger adult-oriented horror series, leaving fans of the series unsurprisingly heartbroken.
Disney's 2023 version of Goosebumps is among the more recent adaptations of R.L. Stine's best-selling book series. Spanning well over 200 books, many of Stine's novels have found their way into various other forms of media, including video games, comic books, television shows and two mainstream films.
Along with its 1995 television show, the books notably formed the basis for a 2015 horror comedy starring Jack Black. The finished film won an assortment of positive reviews from critics, with many praising its approachable storyline, buoyant humor and overarching odes to its larger source material.
A sequel to the 2015 film, Goosebumps 2: Haunted Halloween, followed in 2018, albeit with Black in a much smaller uncredited role. At the time of its release, the sequel earned mixed reviews, seemingly derailing any chance for a third film in the series.

Now Jimmy Fallon Is Using Taylor Swift To Suggest Trump Had Sinister Ties To Epstein
Jimmy Fallon is on a roll in taunting President Donald Trump with sexual jokes ― and some are making insinuations about the Jeffrey Epstein scandal. (Watch the video below.) On Wednesday the 'Tonight Show' host was back at it again, using Taylor Swift songs to sum up the president's Friday meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin. Fallon got a big response for noting that Americans are worried that Trump isn't ready for the talks to end Russia's invasion of Ukraine 'since his mind is basically a giant 'Blank Space.' ' Then the comedian waded into very sensitive territory. 'Also, he's distracted by the Epstein scandal. He'll tell Putin it's been a 'Cruel Summer' because everyone thinks 'I Did Something Bad' but I swear everyone on the island was '22.′' 'Oooooh,' the audience reacted in he-really-went-there fashion. Fast-forward to 1:50 for the Swift-Trump bit: To be clear, Trump reportedly has never been investigated over anything involving the late Epstein. The sex offender's hobnobbing with celebrities and politicians has generated high interest in what government files potentially contain about them. And while Trump was reportedly told by Attorney General Pam Bondi that he is mentioned in the files, the context is not publicly known. Trump brought some suspicion on himself by suddenly declaring the files to be a hoax. But some Republicans are backing a bipartisan House push for the release of all the files related to Epstein. Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) appears to be hindering the process. Fallon has taunted Trump for a while on his about-face on the Epstein front. On Monday the host noted that the president had hoped for a 'trilateral meeting' of peace talks involving Ukrainian President Volodomyr Zelenskyy. 'Last time Trump had a trilateral meeting was on Epstein Island,' Fallon cracked. On Tuesday, he again parlayed monologue chatter about the summit into another naughty dig at the commander in chief. 'Trump said that in his meeting with Putin, he will know probably in the first two minutes whether a deal is possible,' the host said. 'It's reassuring when a president talks about ending a war like a Tinder date.' 'Yep,' Fallon continued, 'Trump says that he'll know in two minutes, which makes sense because, according to Stormy Daniels, two minutes is plenty.' Related...

The b-Vibe 360 Plug Backdoor Vibrator Is Beginner-Friendly
I love it when a b-Vibe product comes my way, even if it's a P-spot vibrator, like the b-Vibe 360 Plug. I don't have a prostate, but my partner does, so it makes for a lot of fun to use together when we want to add some anal play to the mix. I gave it a try too (it's called due diligence), to check things out while fully knowing our experiences will differ, but that adds to the intimacy in the moment and the aftercare that follows. Like all b-Vibe sex toys, the 360 Plug is made from body-safe silicone and is ultra-smooth to the touch. However, this doesn't mean you can skip the lube. When it comes to putting anything in the backdoor—body-safe materials with a flared base—lube must always be part of the equation to prevent friction that leads to microtears. According to my partner, lube made for an easy entry that was both comfortable and pleasurable. Good Vibes Courtesy of b-Vibe When we turned on the vibrator with the remote—far easier than most app controls—there was a lot of stimulation going on. Not only does the 360 Plug's shaft and head vibrate, but so does the base that sits perfectly snug against the perianal zone. It was here that we realized why it's called the 360 Plug: the head oscillates, which gives the prostate one hell of a massage. As the person in charge of the remote control (it works up to 30 feet away), we experimented with the six speeds for the rotating head and the six vibration patterns for the perianal zone, and my partner found his happy place somewhere in the middle, with a steady pulse that kept the pleasure uninterrupted. My partner, who doesn't regularly put things in his butt, felt that the 360 Plug could be thicker, with a bigger head. As much as he thought the vibration selection was great, due to the size of the shaft, he was more satisfied with the vibrations stimulating his perianal zone, making that his favorite part of the toy. Because of its size, he declared it great for beginners, noting that people who aren't new to anal aren't going to be impressed with its 'diminutive stature.' He also noted that a bigger shaft and equally bigger head would require less angling and fumbling for one to locate their prostate, which can be tricky for newbies, as it took him a bit. If it had more weight, it would have been even more enjoyable. I suggested that next time he could try the b-Vibe Snug Plug 7, which is a whopping 1.3 pounds and 2.5 inches in diameter. Suddenly, he wasn't so chatty about size. For Folks With Vulvas Courtesy of b-Vibe I can't put my stamp of approval on something I haven't personally tried, even if it wasn't technically designed for my body, so I also gave the 360 Plug a try. I agree with my partner that, with enough lube, it slides in effortlessly and comfortably. Although I don't have a prostate, I did find that the rotating head and vibrating shaft felt good, but not in the same way that my partner did for anatomical reasons. While he thought the internal part should be bigger, I thought it was the ideal size for anal play, and the vibrator for the perianal area did feel pleasant, because the vibrations are strong enough that the rumbling made its way to my vulva. Not my clitoris, just the general area. In other words, if you have a vulva and you're looking for anal play, the 360 Plug could be for you. It's whisper-quiet and 100 percent waterproof. Unfortunately, it only has a one-hour run time and takes two hours to charge. If the charging time is longer than the run time, that always makes me pause, because it should be the other way around. The magnetic proprietary plug can also be an issue if you're prone to losing things, because once it's gone, you need to buy a replacement. It has some minor annoyances, but the b-Vibe 360 Plug is a good, almost great anal vibrator that any gender can enjoy if anal play is on the menu. While those with prostates will find it most enjoyable, anyone who loves some buzz action in their butt can find pleasure too.
