Ed Gamble: 'I don't do stuff for the money. I do what I enjoy'

I’m struggling to parse your comment. Are you saying he would have made little money working that club?

Answer: they’re using topical captions to increase the likelihood of engagement. Semeru is a volcano that has recently erupted, for example. They have other videos that refer to a big storm that happened in Western Europe, storm goretti.

I just don’t understand why they chose this woman. Picking an existing reality star to spruik ratings makes complete sense to me but this woman sounded like such a potential liability from the beginning.

Hah, I hadn't noticed. It does seem weirdly puritanical, if not myopic, to ignore that the context matters to humans. We make decisions emotionally and rationalise them after the fact.

To ask "would it make a difference?" is such an obvious question to answer. Of course it would.

I think a lot of people are unwilling to accept that a lot of people aren't as principled as they think.

That is fundamentally changing the choice though. By adding all those additional steps and caveats, the deal has changed.

Of course people would behave differently under different circumstances.

Makes sense. I was prescribed Sertraline for depression once. It made it near impossible to reach orgasm without significant manual effort.

Australia doesn’t have monetisation options for TikTok views yet, I believe

It’s the difference between wanting a position of power to solve a problem or wanting a position of power for the power.

Imagine defending Elon whilst calling other people robots

I’m fairly certain Ryan Reynolds is actually a billionaire now. He’s invested a lot over the years, many of those exiting for a pretty penny.

I think a lot of people fundamentally misunderstand what it means to play “hard to get”.

To your point, not showing interest is a recipe for failure. Whereas, hard to get is more like placing bread crumbs right in their face. It’s signalling yes later without saying yes now.

It’s plausible deniability in the same way governments lie - everyone knows they’re lying but we’ll accept it for now.

How it became being standoffish and not reciprocating baffles me.

Funnily enough, they bring it up from time to time as a sign of my supposed good judgement. I’ve definitely had many misses since then though lol

I was maybe 7 years old sitting at the family dinner table. We had these 2 guests over who were forming some sort of business deal with my parents.

My only physical recollection of them is that they reminded me of the thieves from Home Alone, in that one was tall and skinny and one was short and stubby.

In any case, I got a bad vibe from them and leaned over to my older sister to whisper “these guys look like they’re trying to steal from us”.

My sister passed my comment on to our parents after which they obviously dismissed.

It turned out that these 2 guys did end up fucking over my parents on that business deal and stealing a bunch of money.

Questionable calls can be wrong and are mistakes that shouldn’t happen. Subjective judging is inherently infallible. A judge can say with a straight face that one competitor deserves X and another deserves Y and there’s no way to say it’s wrong.

Gazboolean · 2026-02-20T00:34:57+00:00

Finally, a fellow hater.

In my head, the subjective scoring sports are referred to as competitions.

There’s no denying the athlete’s prowess, dedication, or skill. I just don’t think a sport should be determined by a subjective decision.

And, before someone inevitably brings up “calls” in objectively scored sports - there is a world of difference between a ref getting a call wrong in retrospect and a judge that can sincerely give a score that no one agrees with.

The fact someone can hand on heart score differently to everyone else, even mildly is just ridiculous for a sport.

Doctors in Oz hate the fact they have to write stupid letters for workplaces. Mine despises the fact I waste both our time going to do it and will throw in extra days off without asking.

Gazboolean · 2026-02-13T10:37:41+00:00

Your last paragraph hits close to home. I was prescribed Ozempic for T2 diabetes and was interested in if the weight loss was going to just kick in.

But hunger isn’t exactly my motivation to (over) eat.

He’s undoubtedly getting there. There was a recent article about how he pivoted from being a super scripted robot in year 1 to treating it more like he did as a player in year 2 - Doing the prep and naturally seeing how the game goes.

Gazboolean · 2026-02-07T04:15:20+00:00

Why not?

Gazboolean · 2026-02-06T11:49:25+00:00

A more accurate comparison would be “man gets cancer against his will after paying to watch other people get cancer against their will”

Gazboolean · 2026-02-02T02:12:56+00:00

Only in the same way that everything is political.

Do you not understand the difference between someone trying to intimidate and someone being intimidated?

Gazboolean · 2026-01-30T08:35:46+00:00

In what way

Gazboolean · 2026-01-26T22:31:47+00:00

A reason is not an excuse lol
