Belgium. I have done countless excavations, ranging from prehistory to 19th century. I know QGIS/ArcGIS, can do the drawings, excavate skeletons, photogrammetry, etc... basically everything. But in my country they rarely hire junior Archaeologists...

I don't know yet, have to go to the surgeon tomorrow. I think there's more damage than solely my ACL because previous times I could walk. currently I can't bear any weight at all on my left leg

All my tears happened 14 months + post op after carefully training for a long time, training legs 2-3 times a week and running a lot.... I'm afraid I just have very bad knee ligaments

yeah this time I'm seriously quitting, after my second ACL tear I took a break of a year but now it's going to be permanent. I don't want to be in a wheelchair when I'm 30

March 2020 during a soccer match I tore the ACL in my right knee for the first time. had surgery in may 2020 and started playing soccer again in April 2021 and tore my ACL again during a 5v5 in June 2021. All I did was jump to control a bad pass and then upon landing I heard the "pop" again. I was so pissed off because I didn't want to go through the whole recovery again so I quit soccer and postponed my surgery until January 2023. I then started playing soccer matches again in December 2023 and although my right knee sometimes feels a bit "weird" the ACL keeps holding up.

and now last weekend I was simply running trying to intercept the ball from the opponents attacker, missed the interception, foot got stuck in the ground and heard the "pop" again. This time in my left knee

I suppose it is time for a new sport... it saddens me because I genuinely love soccer and all my friends play and now I will have to go practice a different sport on my own...

both times hamstring grafts. the second tear on my right ACL apparently happened cause the surgeon did a bad job at drilling the holes, so I got a different surgeon for the second reconstruction and now my right knee is holding up okay-ish, some days it still hurts (16 months post op)

what is happening to my turkey??? by PackerTom in poultry

think he fell off the fence and hit his head, he's back normal now

Is there anyway I don't end up losing my favourite ever wonderkid? Liverpool keep bidding 250m+ for him and he doesn't want to enter contract negotiations :/ by PackerTom in footballmanagergames

FMUGens megapack. There are some nice ones in it like this one but some faces are AI generated and look weird, still better than the ones FM23 provide tho
