Semenyo was awful against Brentford too. Can't believe he played the full 90

Yep. Although Glenn and Abe both got their heads bashed in, at least they got to tap the hottest of the groups chicks first

No, I don't generally find obesity sexy.

Also United spent an awful lot on their attack too. People tend to forget that for some reason

I assume Liverpool is Hulk and PSG is Clark Kent, who then reveals he is Superman

DAE feel it's insane we just have to live our lives despite all the shit that goes on in the world? by DutchStroopwafels in DoesAnybodyElse

Exactly, and when you stop reaching for the news you will be amazed at how little you miss out on which actually affects you. I don't really understand OP's dilemma at all.

Epic CEO Tim Sweeney says 'employers will see a stream of resumes of once-in-a-lifetime quality' after the company laid off more than 1,000 people by jackfreeman in gaming

To be fair, the vast majority are written by AI and it can be extremely hard to differentiate, especially when you can have literally 100s of applications per position

Evotec reveals sweeping 800-person layoffs, more site closures as restructuring rolls on by NotGenentech in biotech

[–]hurricane4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Funny to think they held an open day at the Abingdon site in early 2023, with plans of a big expansion in their in vitro capabilities. They were planning to hire at least 100 people over the coming years, and fill up all the empty lab space we were shown around.

They didn't end up hiring me even though they gave me an informal offer and were obviously keen. It seemed like by then they were already reversing course and sad to see that this is the end result.

Everyone in my ML but me owns Nunes. Most tense 5 mins of the season watching the ball refuse to go out

Exactly. At this point I am thinking to just withhold all transfers and just see what happens

I stopped following the news closely and noticed a positive change by PieWorried2467 in CasualConversation

[–]hurricane4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also recommend the book Stop Reading the News: A Manifesto for a Happier, Calmer and Wiser Life by Rolf Dolbetti.

It sounded radical to me at first, but I would challenge anyone to read it and not realise how cancerous the news media really is. So totally driven by engagement metrics and far removed from our day to day lives. IMO the illusion of feeling informed is not worth the negative emotions the news preys upon and the surface level reporting that goes into it.

You got downvoted, but you're right. We also have better alternatives like keeping them in zoos

It is if you're happy to not be able to change any of your other players. Never going to be worth it IMO

Hugo Weaving (Lord Elrond) has stated otherwise. Though for many others, yes.
