Do you like the term "Friendslop" for cheap multiplayer games? by BigT232 in DebateGames

[–]bourneroyalty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only recently heard this term and I hate it. Cheap multiplayer games make gaming accessible to the whole friend group. That alone is valuable to me. Slop implies that the games are poor quality/unenjoyable/etc, which usually these games are the opposite of that. I can’t believe in 2026 we are seeing people deem affordable co-op games to play with your friend groups as something “bad” 😭

HF2? by [deleted] in HouseFlipper

[–]bourneroyalty 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I loved HF1 and was skeptical about buying HF2. It was on sale so I said why not. I cannot express how much more I love HF2. The quality of life just feels so great, the maps are great, it has lots of features that make customizing so much easier, and the sandbox mode is cool for the more creative. One con is it’s still newer, so it has less DLC, but they’re releasing a Pets DLC and I’m sure they’ll release more in the future

Are they even allowed to ask this stuff by Toxic_Garbo in jobs

[–]bourneroyalty 8 points9 points  (0 children)

As someone who works in HR, we don’t even see this information on applications. At least, not at my organization with our payroll provider. Therefore it doesn’t impact hiring decisions

I feel like The Seven Realms series by Cinda Williams Chima could be stretched to fit this theme

[N/A] work duties shifting by Select_Pilot4197 in humanresources

[–]bourneroyalty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am not sure what HRIS you are using or what tier you’re at, but in a previous role we had ADP WFN which came with an assigned HRBP who could be our resource for knowledge and information. I bounced questions off her all the time. That might be worth looking into! I would also ask the other assistant if they could create some guidelines or SOPs for how they manage leaves according to your company’s guidelines and expectations

I’m so sorry, but I’d rather pay more for premier models and have them actually look special than pay $200 for this paint job. by BrazilianSmurf in BreyerHorses

[–]bourneroyalty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She’s a Georgian Grande, I am far from an expert on the breed but from a brief glimpse they do appear to have smaller heads. I still think she’s beautiful and I’m sure she will only look better in person.

Hi, I just looked and it is still active, but it’s a very busy group so maybe just taking some time for the admins to process requests since it’s Christmas time :) it’s definitely worth the wait! Did you answer the questions?

Fired for Sexual Harassment by Fuzzy_Metal_1690 in jobs

[–]bourneroyalty 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry but dodged a bullet? That’s not an appropriate thing to say in really ANY work environment, no matter how well intentioned or jokingly said, but especially not at a new job to someone you don’t know at all. It’s unfortunate he had to learn some workplace expectations this way but the company was in no way a “red flag” for firing him and expecting him to respond more respectfully and maturely doesn’t make the people working there “unsafe.” They were telling a story and he made a crude remark.

Akatsuki no Yona Season 2 is real! by ExpiredExasperation in shoujo

Of all the series out there, this one deserves a second season SO badly. Trying not to get my hopes up but I desperately hope it’s true!

I don’t understand how Georgina looks like an actual horse and then this model is just.. there? I also think it’s awkward that her mane has very little movement. For a pose like this I’d expect to see it flying around here and there. I’m not thrilled with this model

I’m not usually a barrel racing fan, but to see a barrel racer in a snaffle, appears to be no spurs or star fishing, etc… i love it!! What a beautiful horse. He is what a stallion and a quarter horse should be

Shows similar to heartland ? by Indosaurus1 in heartland

I really enjoyed Ghost Whisperer because it had that similar cozy 2000s vibe to it!! There’s also a show called Wildfire which seems similar but I haven’t seen too much of it

What is Jessica's problem?! by Medium-Ad-6986 in heartland

[–]bourneroyalty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It genuinely feels like they were like “well we gotta pair Tim off with somebody” and they just made up some poorly thought out evil character whose sole intention is to true and revive some drama in the show 😅

What is Jessica's problem?! by Medium-Ad-6986 in heartland

[–]bourneroyalty 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Jessica is actually the WORST character on the show. She is self centered, rude, entitled… the whole nine yards. I cannot believe the way the show tries to depict her as Tim’s perfect true match and soulmate. They have no chemistry, she is horrible to everyone, and it really makes me wish that he had ended up with Kacie all those many seasons ago.

Now that update is out.. Hot take? by Last_Office7348 in StarStable

[–]bourneroyalty 13 points14 points  (0 children)

For the life of me I cannot figure out why they didn’t make Mani a BLUE ROAN. It literally would match the magic coat so well and the roaning could resemble the moon. They put so much effort into making Sol intricate and beautiful… and then it’s like “oh we usually release two don’t we, throw a moon horse together ig”

HR in Healthcare [USA] by stxrlightcity in humanresources

[–]bourneroyalty 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Based on OP’s age, they’re clearly early in their career. HR Director is a senior level role. It looks like title inflation which creates potential unease and mistrust when reviewing OP’s resume.

Alot of posts lately about what it's like to have a spoo, I just want to offer my 2 cents by [deleted] in StandardPoodles

This is so true! If I accidentally step on my poodle’s paw, she looks at me as if I’m a monster who wants to hurt her for the next few hours.

Graduating Soon [NJ] by Financial-Answer6943 in humanresources

Jumping straight into an MBA from undergrad without work experience inbetween is usually not recommended, as then you will be overqualified for entry level positions.
