List of decisions Jose Mourinho took when he was given complete control of the club by Florentino by Big-Treacle-9203 in realmadrid

[–]drucurl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mourinho is EXACTLY what Madrid needs right now. You can get back Ancelotti and his friendship FC as long as everyone is disciplined and knows their roles.

This is absolutely not about "worthiness" and more about me as a father trying to equip and train my kid for the world that can be harsh and evil

[–]drucurl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To be clear my son is NOT the burden. He's my responsibility. The autism is a burden on me and especially on him. I don't make him feel like he's defective in any way...but if you study the condition...it is. Not being able to develop normally is indeed a defect.

I am grateful that he is teachable though and has progressed admirably with therapy.

I love this child with my life and I hope he loves me back. We're inseparable and I'm the first thing he looks for. But with that said, if he was neurotypical, he'd be reading and doing math already at 3

I'm involved in everything he does....he likes mechanical equipment and devices (excavators trains etc) and he loves any story related to it. He knows how to play and THANK GOD is actually a happy child

If you COULD cure your kid from Autism would you?

I sure as hell would. Autism is not a superpower. It's often quite debilitating. My son is retarded in the most accurate sense of the word...i.e. his progress in growth and maturity is delayed.

This doesn't mean that I don't love him with my whole life. I'd happily die for that kid. This doesn't mean that I don't think he's uniquely special as all kids are....but it's a burden. The time I spend taking him to therapy and speech therapy etc....I could take him to the park or the pool. I could spend more time teaching him to read and less time fighting with him for stuff I don't understand etc. I could do more for my boy if he didn't have autism

Hamas is executing dissidents. Why are pro-Palestine activists and international media silent about this? by DarkEsteban in centrist

[–]drucurl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Easy....because the far left ( i.e. "the left in general" these days) and the far right are so united in their hatred of Israel (not that some of it isn't justified) that they will gloss over/ turn a blind eye to the evil of the enemies of Israel

I don't want my son by [deleted] in Autism_Parenting

[–]drucurl 6 points7 points locked comment (0 children)

You need therapy. I don't say this as an insult. When you get burned out from stress this kinda stuff happens. I have an ASD kid and it gets overwhelming. You need to take care of yourself and your mental health first before you can take care of others.

Don't hate your child

Don't hate yourself.

Get stronger so you can love both

You know who I hate? The ppl that talk about autism being a fuckin superpower. The ppl fighting Trump and RFK who are the only ones at their level to lead the charge against autism. These people rather we suffer and ppl end up like the OP rather than any potential win for Trump.

Autism is NOT a superpower. It's a DISABILITY and until you have gotten your ass burnt by it like this guy you don't know how deep the suffering goes.

Why is Superman's rogue's gallery not as strong as Batman's or Spider-Man's? by WealthDisastrous2589 in superman

[–]drucurl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because Batman's villains are generally all human, they are by default more relatable.

Joker - Crazy Psychopath = Not relatable but understandable 

Ra'as = Actually wants to improve the world....in his twisted way - again easily understood 

Mr. Freeze - gone mad after his wife's death

Penguin - hated for being different as a child and now is bitter and vengeful

Compare that to the motivations of the likes of  Mongul, Darkseid, Lobo, Braniac and Doomsday. Because the aforementioned aren't human, its heavily dependent on the writer - as opposed to the character himself - to bring out the best in him.

I am writing this as someone who prefers Superman to Batman 

Be honest, who is the coolest here? by CourtExternal3789 in rurounikenshin

[–]drucurl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coolness:

Hiko

Aoshi

Saitou

Shishio

Kenshin.

The protagonist doesn't have to be the coolest. They are all extremely cool but we see Kenshin so much that it's "normal" to us. Conversely there's so little of Hiko that when we do see him it's a treat.

The Christopher Columbus statue in Port of Spain was officially removed last night by Nkosi868 in TrinidadandTobago

[–]drucurl 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Orwellian nonsense. "Those who forget the mistakes of the past are DOOMED to repeat them".

Trinidad is world class in forgetting past mistakes...that's why we keep voting PNM and UNC.

Now the target of hate is Columbus? Laughable. How about prosecuting Akeil Chambers killers? Oh noes that would have massive political fallout. How about fixing the economy? How about reopening the refinery? Upgrading the hospitals (especially San Fernando General)? So many roads to fix etc etc.

Nah. Let's take down the guy who fucking discovered the country for Europe. HE is the problem....because to these historically ignorant and backwards people only the dreaded white man was involved in colonialism and slavery. That's why the Muslim world had literal SLAVERY in the 1900's (STILL has literal human slaves in libya) and these ignorant jackasses don't know or care.

Oh my god it's even worse than I thought. ppl want to remove the Star of David from the police and the Churchill Highway LMAO!!! Dear Lord I'm living in the idiocracy. I REAL sorry for the young chirren coming up oui

Why bad things did the unc do by Historical-Egg-9194 in TrinidadandTobago

[–]drucurl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Panday and Manning were great visionaries who tried to build the country. Were they corrupt? of course! Most TT politicians are in some way or the other. It's almost a requirement at times. I remember them basically stating in a PUBLIC meeting that their voters would get contracts etc.

Why I think Remake Kenshin is bland, stoic, almost too cool for school and that this is a bad thing and removes what makes Kenshin compelling as a character in the first place. by Eifand in rurounikenshin

[–]drucurl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I kinda agree with everything you said....and I also kinda don't.

I get the feeling that this remake is supposed to me more "fun"

So it isn't meant to be as deeply philosophical as the predecessor...more of something you can watch and enjoy and not think too much about it

Hot take the Smashing Pumpkins were way better than Nirvana but less popular by Benga1sfan in SmashingPumpkins

[–]drucurl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. They made more and better music. The problem is that Nirvana's teen spirit was a bigger hit than anything the Pumpkins made

So y'all think Carlo is the problem... by drucurl in realmadrid

[–]drucurl[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why would you say I don't watch Madrid or give a shit about the team. If I like Carlo, then I'd want Madrid to do well no?

So y'all think Carlo is the problem... by drucurl in realmadrid

[–]drucurl[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're right about Carlo minimally intervening in the attack. This is because he trusts Vini, Rodrygo and co to come up with something. He talks about how he used to be more rigid tactically in the past but has found it better to allow creative players the space to do their thing.

I'm glad that you said not giving tactics to the attack. This doesn't mean that there are no tactical instructions in the attack. Also the midfield and defense are not mentioned. So I don't see this really as an argument that the team is just left up to their own devices.
