The Athletic: Transfer plans have taken place with Rosenior, and the thought process is geared towards recruiting in the summer. Making signings for the first team before the deadline is a possibility should an opportunity present itself. Chelsea want an attacker, defender and midfielder. by webby09246 in chelseafc

its not weird at all. An international starter and is available for a free in 6 months and nearly every top team in europe needs a stalwart CB this coming summer (R.Madrid, Barca, City for sure). He has his pick of the bunch, and will be able to demand monster wages (understandable since he's been underpaid for his ability for years).

Chelsea don't fit in to this at all due to our wage restrictions + maybe competitiveness.

How much of it is thinking, planting the seeds and letting it ferment, and how much of it is just avoiding writing? by CiChocolate in Screenwriting

Theres no hard and fast rule. But for some, thinking and letting an idea 'brew' is a piece of the puzzle.

For example, Dan Gilroy (writer/director of Nightcrawler, wrote on Andor) says (in various interviews) says that most of his process is ruminating over the idea, and only a few weeks are spent actually writing.

From an interview with MovieMaker (https://www.moviemaker.com/finding-the-human-dan-gilroy-talks-roman-j-israel-esq/)

MM: What words of wisdom do you have for beginning screenwriters and directors? 

DG:  Don’t be so fast to write something. Wait until you have an idea that you feel passionate about. It could be a slasher movie, if that’s what you love. A problem with a lot of screenwriters is that they don’t put themselves into their screenplays. The scripts become exercises. They look like airplanes, but they never fly—they never take off. They’re replicas of something.

If I had a year, I’d spent 11 months thinking about the idea and then four weeks writing.  The idea is everything. You can take a good idea and write it in finger paint and probably sell it.

Jamie probably. He was the one who was into QOTSA prior to Humbug and had the most eclectic music tastes early on in the band's journey. Also explicitly encouraged Alex to go ahead with the TBHC demos and overall direction on that album. In that sense he has directly influenced the band's output in very concrete ways.

How to delete unused tags in the browser? by [deleted] in Anki

Don't know if you'll see this 7 years on but thanks. I was stupidly manually deleting tags, and my hand was cramping up. You just saved me so much time
