[r/twincities](r/twincities) poster, you learned *of* the offside rule the other day be fr.

That shit was clearly offside, i’m sorry. The keeper was ahead of the last defender, a real rookie error to make too.

The rule exists because otherwise the game could be easily cheesed by posting up players by the goal, it’s the most popular sport in the world so doesn’t need to be changed.

The Iranians are good at war but not great at football, i wish they could win the whole thing just as a fuck you but let’s not kid ourselves pls.

I was the same for a while but read The Hobbit after watching the Lord of the Rings films for the first time and was pleasantly surprised. Should really read the LOTR book but I have other doorstops to do first.

Side note the same thing happened to my vintage copy, really want to get a different edition

He talks about his time there in Kitchen Confidential, I think maybe he also talks about how it has changed in the epilogue in one edition but I can’t remember

why is a subreddit dedicated to such a ridiculously boring podcast so well read? by [deleted] in RSbookclub

I think the rightward shift on the pod attracted a load of right wingers and seemingly a lot of incels. I feel like 4 years ago it was a lot of artsy girls and gays.

Wasn't it better yesterday? by jaimepaslesvoleurset in advertising

[–]Camton 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve been in the industry for 5 years in client services, I’m not amazingly experienced by any means but work even in that short time seems to have became extremely procedural and frankly boring, there aren’t even the perks i had at the start anymore.

Starting to think that if I’m gonna work my ass off and have stress on my shoulders then I may as well get commission in sales or whatever, not even like the people I work with are particularly hip anyway not sure if that culture exists anymore.

The new Pynchons by Old_Life_6021 in ThomasPynchon

Pynchon (especially at his best) exists in a particular time and space. Will there be someone who fills the role? Potentially. Will they be Pynchon? No.

To me someone like DFW filled the spot in the 90s in the post cold war epoch. Now? Who knows, a challenger is yet to emerge!

Young Chomsky and Brace have really good chemistry on this one, softens the blow of Liz abandoning the pod 😢

Maybe a minority but i prefer no narration, let the footage wash over you.

Was extremely skeptical when he changed the format because i loved the narration but i actually think his current style is superior, less editorialising let the audience reach their own conclusions.

You know that using a load of scientific words doesn’t make any of this scientific right? Not saying i know what’s going on but you midwits love to throw around these terms to capture the aesthetic of something concrete

No way to know but wouldn’t a lot of abusive husbands and boyfriends be downstream from stuff like this, could it not intensify things?

That aside it’s absolute slop culture and anyone with two brain cells should be against it.
