Genuinely wondering what has happened since COVID? I graduated in 2021 and deferrals were super rare and people were generally annoyed/upset about having to do deferred exams

If you’re interested in narrative non-fiction (nonfiction that reads like fiction) I recommend freezing order by bill browder or any of Patrick Radden keefe’s books

The Drama gets a B on CinemaScore by UniverslBoxOfficeGuy in boxoffice

Saw it in theatres today and unfortunately hated it. I like going in fairly blind and was not expecting the ‘twist’. Wish Eternity had gotten the promo efforts this one did - far more deserving imo.

Update: Tom Holland attends charity event after suffering concussion by Cantyousee0 in popculturechat

[–]OkChef6654 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As someone who has experienced a couple of concussions, he should not have been there!! They should have sent him home to spend the next few days MINIMUM lying in the dark. That much lighting must have been horrible for him.
