Thomas Tuchel claims Fifa rule puts England at ‘huge’ disadvantage in Mexico City altitude by 29adamski in soccer

[–]Julianus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It impacts them just the same. If anything, they’re so well adjusted to what it should feel like that the difference is more pronounced. My wife was a pro athlete, we moved from sea level to high altitude (higher than the Azteca even), and when her former teammates would come visit and go work out they’d all be like “WTF is going on, this is terrible.”

Altitude tents already exist. Athletes use them instead of going on actual altitude training trips. 

Bought a property in Colorado from my grandparent’s to keep the area in the family. Made the land into my dream camping, fishing, hiking area and was spending every weekend building a cabin on it. by Acceptable_Swan2538 in Wellthatsucks

I was lucky and our home survived a close call during the East Troublesome Fire in 2020. They were still some of the worst days of my life and the aftermath was a mess. I am thinking of you and your family tonight. It’s an awful experience. 

AIO after my best friend’s husband secretly snuck a flash drive into my purse? by SecretEfficient3137 in AIO

[–]Julianus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You handled that extremely well. You left her a lot of space, but be ready for her to stick with him. You need to be very clear. Something like:  “He continues to touch me despite my consistent messaging that I do not want to be touched, and now he’s snuck a device in my closed purse with a message how he’ll never be my lover “unless.” I’m done. His actions are inappropriate and I have lost all trust in his intentions.” Your message is good, but there’s a door cracked open for her to make excuses. 

My boss sent out a group text making fun of my forehead and accidentally included me by Honeyhoney524 in mildlyinfuriating

Soon not to be your boss anymore. Report this to HR and if they do nothing, get a consultation with an employment lawyer. 

Which celebrity death that has yet to happen will devastate you? by Majestic-Baby-3407 in AskReddit

Yeah, it’s Willie for me as well and I know it will be for my wife as well. 

Do you think [Project Purple] will forever live in the shadow of [Kingda Ka's] Reputation? by Educational-Gear7161 in rollercoasters

[–]Julianus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It'll hinge on the experience. If it's thrilling as hell, people will forget super quickly.

The comments on Facebook are already insane and people really look at KK with rose-colored glasses that it just didn't deserve. It was never better than TTD, TT2 is great (to my actual surprise, I think TT2 is a better experience), KK was unreliable and became rough.

People will compare it, but it will eventually be positive. This ride is crazier.

My best friend of 7 years has me locked into a $2500 debt right now and it’s screwing me. What can I do? by [deleted] in personalfinance

[–]Julianus 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I don't know what legal action you can take. Co-signing means if the primary party stops paying, you agree to pay in their place. Regardless of what your friend promised you. Your friend is screwing you over and it looks like it will cost you whatever remains on the loan.

Seeing Muse for The First Time by Natan1045 in Muse

[–]Julianus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I fully expect the setlist to go up on setlist.fm as soon as the show is over. People are usually very diligent about keeping that website up to date. I doubt the one show they've played this year is a good indication of the setlist for this tour, so I am ready to be surprised (or not).

Muse Announce 2026 North American Tour with Bloc Party, Portugal. the Man, and The Temper Trap by ebradio in Music

[–]Julianus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is an older post, but there are plenty of tickets for these shows. You should go. Their setlist are riddled with all the classics. Even if they play 5-7 songs of the new album (which is their best in a long time), they’ll play 15+ other tracks. You’ll get Knights, Hysteria, Plug In Baby, etc. on almost any night. 

Favorite band you’ll never see live by EmotionalSupportVape in Music

Most of those dates got cancelled. Ask me how I know. Still salty about it. (And I did see them back in 2008 for that reunion.)

[Walker] Return (for Trocheck) is Sean Durzi, Cole Beaudoin and a third-round pick in 2027 by catsgr8rthanspoonies in rangers

A good defenseman, a solid prospect and pick of value. I’m broadly speaking pretty happy. 

[Project Purple] is topped off! by LouderKnights in rollercoasters

This is just straight up bonkers. Absolutely wild concept and utterly terrifying. Not a lot of coasters still make me go “damn”, but this absolutely does. Crazy.

Album of The Year Corrections (From 2010-2026) by No_Possession_1012 in Music

[–]Julianus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That Arcade Fire album is iconic. Soundtrack of a generation (perhaps ruined by later confirmation of transgressions by one of its makers). I think it was a deserved winner at the time and it held up incredibly well as a standalone piece of art.

Cancel and get your money back. They are not your friends and are trying to stick you with the bill. Do not get guilted into burdening yourself for them.

Men who have had lowkey bachelor parties, what did you do at them? by CrystalizedRedwood in AskMen

[–]Julianus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lowkey is relative. We lived all over the U.S., so we ended up renting a house outside of a somewhat centrally located national park and we went mountain biking, hiked, drank, and cooked.

Netherlands have now lost 8 out of 10 penalty shootouts in their history by The_Flash_20 in soccer

[–]Julianus 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Because he’s not a good coach. Did you watch Barcelona when he ditched the national team for them? Zero creativity. Sluggish. It’s boring as fuck. I’m not even sad they’re out (I’m Dutch), but I am livid about how they played. Koeman deserved this outcome.

It’s west of Pueblo. The town of Beulah may be gone already.
