("'When somebody said there was a kangaroo of course I didn’t believe it, and nobody believed it. But I’m looking at him,' Macon County Sheriff... said")Troopers eventually shut down both lanes of I-85 between Auburn and Tuskegee while they worked to capture the kangaroo.

Once captured, the kangaroo was returned to its owner. The kangaroo was not injured.

Instructions.
Also, a good interview with Tony Gilroy:
You had to make some Covid-related concessions in season one, many of which worked out for the best, such as thousands of Aldhani people (the Dhanis) being rewritten into a few “dead-enders.”....I wish we’d come out in August or September, but everybody has been sitting on their hands for so long. There are so many actors in the show, and some of our amazing actors don’t have agents. So some people aren’t working, and they’ve been waiting for stuff to come out....Elizabeth Dulau’s Kleya, who’s Luthen’s (Stellan Skarsgård) right hand, received the biggest promotion in season two, and she really makes the most of the opportunity. Did you see something in her during season one that warranted a major bump in screen time?Yeah, she came in and blew us away all through the season. It was the first job she ever had. She was right out of RADA [Royal Academy of Dramatic Art].

I wanted to do the Namco styled approach (artwork over ingame screen) for years, but never had the right idea for it until this time. Here's the screencap I used for the bg. Made in Idraw as usual and converted into an NES rom which I've thrown onto my Everdrive for screencapping

Manga Manners posters
For years, Japan has put warning signs and warning messages on ATMs to prevent elderly people from getting scammed, but such scams continue to be a major problem...so much so that Osaka will ban people 65 and older from speaking on mobile phones while using ATMs. https://t.co/cNfTdwPc8v pic.twitter.com/K07mihpc1Y
— Jeffrey J. Hall 🇯🇵🇺🇸 (@mrjeffu) April 24, 2025
Some of the "manners" being pointed out pertain to hygiene and not being a nuisance to other people - for example: cover your mouth when you cough/sneeze (Medalist) and reserve space for large baggage in advance (Fairy Tail). There are also ticket purchasing tips (Cells at Work) pic.twitter.com/m3IKn2yAez
— Jeffrey J. Hall 🇯🇵🇺🇸 (@mrjeffu) April 24, 2025
Other posters are about how to best enjoy Japanese food and drink: don't be afraid to eat sushi with your hands or slurp your noodles! (Shota no Sushi & Fire Force). Hold your rice bowl in your hands (Seven Deadly Sins). pic.twitter.com/bU75CkBoAe

Card Captor Sakura's poster states that bowing at a 45 degrees angle is customary to show gratitude. While it is true, some people might see this and end up bowing too much. Not every thank you requires a bow in Japan. pic.twitter.com/66RTENiE8b
