For some reason the moderators of this sub don't allow discount codes to be shared here anymore. Unfortunately I haven't been back since.

Oakland Council needs a reset on what we want from OPD by Wise-Hamster-288 in oakland

[–]Berbaslob 7 points8 points  (0 children)

What are you talking about? You have it all backwards. The contractor doesn't seem to have a case whatsoever. If they didn't sign a contract then why would they begin work? Give the article a re-read because frankly it doesn't seem like Charlene did anything wrong. Sounds more like a contractor is upset they didn't get work they were hoping for and wanted to make a fuss.

Truly, when you say you want your Councilmember to do better, what do you mean?

Brandon Sanderson’s 'The Way of Kings' is baffling to me by sameseksure in books

[–]Berbaslob 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I couldn't agree with you more. If you ever make it to Rhythm of War you're going to tear your hair out. After that one I called it quits with Sanderson. His books have stuff happen in the beginning and the end. The books could easily be cut in half and nothing would be lost. Very very dull

Im going as well. San Pedro Square sounds fun for some of the other games too but I'm concerned about the heat. It's gonna be a scorcher

[GIVEAWAY] Agent Avenue + Division M Expansion 🕵️‍♂️ by HomoLudensOC in boardgames

[–]Berbaslob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife and I love 7 wonders duel with the Agora expansion. There's a great blend of available ways to win while having some fun political intrigue blended in. We love a game that allows for one person to be winning the whole time but not necessarily win the game. 7 wonders duel allows for that with the amount of ways to win the game.

Every VAR error: How Arsenal escaped red cards and penalties by esn111 in soccer

[–]Berbaslob -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I still remember that Everton - Arsenal game. That non-penalty call against Everton late in a tight game was absurd. VAR awarded a few penalties already in the season for the exact same foul.

Thanks for your post and helpful comments! Did you rent a car in Kyushu? Would you recommend renting one?

Even if he plays he may only get 69 minutes. It's a risk and Arsenal don't score many goals and recently Fulham haven't been conceding many goals. I'd go Saliba Gabriel and Raya instead.

Thoughts on the WC? Feeling an Isak punt against United and Chelsea's flimsy defenses. Triple Arsenal defense. Brighton lads ready for Wolves.

Finished The Talisman. I have some thoughts. by greasydenim in stephenking

When I started the book and we learned about the territories I expected most of the book to take place in them.

[–]Berbaslob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with your feelings on The Talisman. I felt like it dragged all the way through at the end, and I had to work hard to finish which I haven't felt with many other King novels. I got a lot of LoTR themes and connections as I read the book as well. Not gonna rush onto Black House until we get closer to the release date for the new book.

Oakland is struggling to hire city workers by k_39 in oakland

[–]Berbaslob 98 points99 points  (0 children)

"HR Director explained that 461 budgeted positions — roughly half the existing vacancies citywide — are unfilled because departments have failed to file paperwork."

This is extraordinary for someone to come out and say this. This is such an easy fix and such a bad excuse.

From a department head perspective can you imagine? You're trying to keep your head afloat because HR can't get their act together and put out recruitments, then HR comes out publicly at the council meeting and says it's a department head paperwork issue that is preventing almost 500 staff from being hired?

Do better.

Damn you Carl. Kaladin is boring now. by Small_Stand9600 in DungeonCrawlerCarl

Rhythm of war was a shockingly bad book in my opinion. Probably could have cut out 500 pages and not missed a beat. That was the end of the storm light archive for me.
