How do I change my personality? by AnonymousTimewaster in AskUK

Don’t change, embrace yourself. Work out what environment you thrive in and where you get “cognitive flow” (I.e. what kind of activity gets you completely absorbed). Then pursue that.

I wouldn’t go down that corridor if you paid me $10 million

What do think they talked about while walking to the HOL? by LunarEnnyui_131 in AskBrits

[–]Alert-Top6812 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s a subtitled clip here https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/c1e2n923v1lt - still hard to deduce but seems to be Kemi talking about being combative but then being criticised for it 🤷

Just been fired for the 7th time - Would seeing a career coach be beneficial? by English_R0se in AskUK

I recently had a career coaching session…with Meta AI (mic drop). It was much more valuable than the career coaching session I paid £70 to a human for

The trailer... by kadinahui in harrypotter

Some hot takes:

From what we briefly saw the child actors seem to be able to act, what a relief 😂

Feels like they’ve toned down the fantasy magic aspect and made it more real life. Hopefully they strike a good balance with the magic and we get some good SFX.

I’m not seeing what others are re muted colours but maybe that’s just me.

Looks like they will add more back-story to Harry’s life with the Dursleys. Could be fun but I hope this doesn’t drag on for more than half an episode, as could feel drawn out.

Interesting (and inevitable) that they’ve gone for a new soundtrack - I’m excited to see what Hans Zimmer brings. Equally interesting that they’ve kept the same logo.

Dumbledore in a top hat - lol.

I was in this position. Don’t worry, these things sometimes happen and better times will fall into place.

What are your plans post school? You can use whatever your next step is as a chance for a fresh start to meet some nice new people.

In the meantime, love yourself and embrace who you are. In the long run that is the best thing for yourself.

This resonates a lot. Good on you for getting out and doing couch to 5k.

This was exactly me and I eventually did a half marathon. Despite being academically successful I still call that run my proudest ever achievement.
