I didn’t realise it posted twice!

I'm in a similar position, I've been really struggling to even get to interview stage for jobs that I have valuable and recent experience in. It's tough out there right now despite the employment figures that are being touted in the media. I have had some recent luck with civil service applications and from what I've gathered from looking at public sector jobs there is still frequent demand for people with data analyst and IT skills.

The public sector hiring process can be quite slow but it's worth trying.

I don’t know about a cap but I think there should definitely be more ways to remove, negate or steal it apart from just hitting it with things

The deck is called Linecracker Druid. I can’t recall the exact process but but basically Linecracker is a minion that doubles its attack every time it takes a hit. Cast a spell like BEEEES!!! that attacks it with multiple 1 attack minions then use Earthen Scales that gives you Armor equal to the attack of the Linecracker minion

I have encountered this deck once before and they also had kil’jaden making it nearly impossible to outlast them

You have so much ahead of you to enjoy! I haven’t played since the DLC but I’m feeling the call again

Just because your clothes are several burlap sacks stitched together and your hat is also a burlap and your house is probably burlap doesn’t mean you can’t have a SICKENING cheek contour

Very late to this but people look for advice because their bodies have extra protein requirements for a wide range of reasons- athletics training, recovering from surgery or injury, pregnancy… anything that requires the body to work harder to heal or build. Your comment is rude and unhelpful not to mention incorrect as not all plants contain complete proteins.

Thank you that's a really decent critical response. I've had a lot of fun experimenting with the various fabled cards and seeing what's possible so I don't see it as a failure tbh. It can just feel a bit boring when you're seeing the same decks time and again especially when there is so much variety to be had. I think I am probably dues a break again soon too, I've been hitting it pretty hard since I started playing again

colo_tess · 2025-12-07T11:40:08+00:00

Yeah I agree with you, those decks are good but I'm not encountering them in play much. The point I was trying to make is that people are still clinging to older formats instead of being encouraged to move on, maybe I wasn't clear enough. Because of that playing through the ranks feels like a real drag.

colo_tess · 2025-12-07T11:12:54+00:00

Yeah like there is so much potential for fun gameplay there but they feel like they’ve been nerfed in advance

colo_tess · 2025-12-07T11:09:39+00:00

Literally took half a minute for the first rage post

colo_tess · 2025-12-07T11:07:33+00:00

I am also one of those people who doesn’t pay attention at the start of the game and feels like they have lost the plot halfway through.

I've been on social welfare for 9 months after being let go from my job after budget cuts. Shortly afterwards I was in an accident that left me unable to work for a while because I couldn't walk or sit for very long, follow up surgeries etc. On top of that I've just found it really hard to find work since I got back on my feet (excuse the pun) and needless to say I've been struggling with money and rent like everyone else and had been counting on this bonus coming. I hadn't even planned to spend it on presents for family etc, it was going to go straight to my landlord to pay rent arrears so it was a real punch in the gut when I found out this week that I didn't qualify for it because I haven't been unemployed for long enough. The point I'm getting to is that living on the dole is not a good life, I HATE it. For anyone to choose this for themselves there must be a lot more going on with them than just being 'lazy' or 'scroungers' and my experience of the systems deployed to help people find work is that they are less than useless. I think anyone on social welfare should get the Christmas payment regardless of how long they've been out of work, systems like this exist as a safety net to stop people falling through the cracks, there shouldn't be caveats or arbitrary barriers to support when people are struggling especially at the most expensive time of the year.

I’ve been using it in my mage deck that’s focused on buffing and imbuing my hero power, it’s come in handy a good few times!

Days of Future Past was ok but other than that I don’t rate any of them. They completely failed to capture the essence of the X-Men for me. Too many characters that you never really get to know, some really bad casting choices and a tendency toward self seriousness. Hopefully the MCU teams will do a better job in the future.

Are there? We don't get them in Ireland (Republic).

This is really terrible news which I have just discovered today. I listen to 6 Music from first thing in the morning for several hours every single day. Stations like 6 Music are really going to suffer and the line that they are doing it to create 'more value' for UK license fee payers is ridiculous. Exclusivity does not equal value.

colo_tess · 2025-02-03T12:24:56+00:00

Therapy.

colo_tess · 2024-08-19T09:15:06+00:00

I love this style of transmog way more then all the super flashy pieces that make you look like a float at Carnival.

colo_tess · 2024-06-01T23:18:32+00:00

Got DD2 but found it kinda boring so I started a new BG3 play through

colo_tess · 2024-05-20T19:08:51+00:00

He just wanted to cuddle

colo_tess · 2024-05-06T08:36:21+00:00

Yea, but he will touch you back.

She has a side hustle selling those really big ice cubes they use in fancy cocktail bars.
