Filmmaker Erin Lee Carr has made her mark with such mesmerizing documentaries as Mommy Dead & Dearest, I Love You, Now Die: The Commonwealth V. Michelle Carter, Britney v. Spears, and Fanatical: The Catfishing of Tegan and Sara. Now, she's tackling one of the most shocking reality TV series of the 2000s with The Swan: Behind The Mirror.

Sitting down with Mashable Entertainment Editor Kristy Puchko in the Say More studio, Carr shared how she created a space for the swans to speak out, rewriting their narratives along the way. When she signed on to helm the project, it was important to her that empowerment be part of the story. Not only did she include every contestant who wanted to participate, but she also gathered the flock of swans for a reunion to celebrate their resilience and beauty (inside and out).

Together, they also dig into some of the doc's most WTF reveals, including the nude photos that plastic surgeon Dr. Randal Haworth still has of the Season 2 contestants. Plus, Carr reflects on how she's grown a deep well of empathy that has been central to her work in documentary, whether talking to coerced reality TV stars or convicted killers.

The Swan: Behind the Mirror is now streaming on Hulu.

Alternate Wordle versions created by fans also sprang up, including battle royale Squabble, music identification game Heardle, and variations like Dordle and Quordle that make you guess multiple words at once. 

Wordle eventually became so popular that it was purchased by the New York Times, and TikTok creators even livestream themselves playing.

Not the day you're after? Here's the solution to today's Wordle.

If you're heading outside tonight, don't forget to look up. The Moon is still very much visible in its current position in the lunar cycle, so, if the sky is clear, try and spot some craters or mares.

What is today’s Moon phase?

As of Friday, Oct. 2, NASA's Daily Moon Guide tracker tells us the Moon is in the Waning Gibbous phase, with 64% of its surface visible.

With just your naked eye, tonight you can see the Mare Vaporum, the Oceanus Procellarum, and the Kepler Crater. If you have binoculars, you can also spot the Alps Mountains and the Alphonsus and Gassendi Craters. Finally, if you have access to a telescope, you'll see the Apollo 12 and 15 landing spots, plus the Rima Ariadaeus.

When is the next Full Moon?

The next Full Moon will take place on October 25 or 26, depending on your timezone.

What are Moon phases?

The Moon takes around 29.5 days to orbit Earth, and as it moves through this cycle, we see different amounts of its sunlit side from here. That's what creates the Moon's different phases, from a thin crescent through to a half Moon and, eventually, the Full Moon. Once it reaches the Full Moon, the cycle starts over again. NASA explains that the phase we see depends on the Moon's position in relation to Earth and the Sun.

The eight phases are:

New Moon - The Moon is between Earth and the sun, so the side we see is dark (in other words, it's invisible to the eye).

Waxing Crescent - A small sliver of light appears on the right side (Northern Hemisphere).

First Quarter - Half of the Moon is lit on the right side. It looks like a half-Moon.

Waxing Gibbous - More than half is lit up, but it's not quite full yet.

Full Moon - The whole face of the Moon is illuminated and fully visible.

Waning Gibbous - The Moon starts losing light on the right side. (Northern Hemisphere)

Third Quarter (or Last Quarter) - Another half-Moon, but now the left side is lit.

Waning Crescent - A thin sliver of light remains on the left side before going dark again.

There's a good reason for that: Mashable readers love the brand's lineup of creator-friendly tools, from cameras and drones to all the gear that helps you get the most out of them.

Apple remains the most popular brand with Mashable's tech-obsessed readership, but DJI isn't far behind. When we write about DJI's drones, vlogging cameras, mics, and power stations, you read about it and sometimes decide to buy. That data is like gold dust, baby. It tells me that you truly care about DJI. And that means I care.

Tesla's Model 3 electric sedan has received a mild upgrade, though not every market got exactly the same features.

In the U.S., the Model 3 now has a larger, 16-inch touchscreen (up form 15.4 inches), with a higher resolution. This goes for every variant, even the cheapest, Rear-Wheel Drive Model 3.

For some variants, the changes aren't just cosmetic. The Model 3 Performance trim got 316 miles of range (up from 309) and 528 horsepower (up from 510); this variant also got the black headliner. And the Model 3 Premium AWD now accelerates quicker, with a 3.8 second 0-60mph time (down from 4.2 seconds).

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

The new features arrive shortly after Tesla announced a similar set of changes in China. There's one pretty big difference, though; in China, the Model 3 now also has V2L (vehicle to load) capability, meaning you can power other electric gadgets from the car's battery. In the U.S., this change isn't mentioned anywhere.

SEE ALSO: Tesla Roadster launch was postponed by two weeks due to 'high winds'

Another difference is the car's interior. In China, there's an option for a new, light gray interior; in the U.S. you can only choose between black, or black-and-white interior.

The prices for all variants of the Model 3 in the U.S. haven't changed. The Rear-Wheel Drive Model 3 starts at $36,990, the Model 3 Premium starts at $42,490 (all-wheel drive option takes it to $47,490), and the Model 3 Performance, which is only available with the all-wheel drive, now starts at $54,990.
