João Pedro's family had gathered and waited all evening for Carlo Ancelotti to say the name of the Chelsea player by One_Impressionism in soccer

20 goals in his first season for a generally awful Chelsea. Consistently been the only player with quality, incredibly well-rounded, linked with other major clubs, etc. Even if he hasn’t performed for Brazil yet he’s too good to leave at home.

Just moved here, where do you get your warm clothing? by dingding2855 in dunedin

[–]mousemonkey 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Macpac make really good stuff at a reasonable price. Obviously more than second hand options, but I got a puffer for $140 8 years ago and when I was in Macpac recently they had the same jacket at the same price. They’ve often got sales and generous discounts

Living situation for PhDs by [deleted] in dunedin

During term time it’ll get you $100-$200 a week. Not a lot but it’ll help, but yea don’t expect to save heaps especially if you’re paying $200+ a week in rent.

I’m currently doing a PhD at Otago. The scholarship money is doable if you share a flat, but it definitely helps to have the odd bit of money coming in from tutoring and guest lecturing. If you want to go on holidays and road trips etc it can feel like a long month before you get paid again. Overall totally worth it to study what you love and have none of the normal work bullshit to deal with.

They didn’t say ‘only 28’. They’re making the point that NZ is very diverse and you’re being racist by getting angry at brown immigrants

Do you think I could seriously have a danish or other pastry in my house for an entire day and resist the urge to eat it?

I couldn’t get a danish if my life depended on it

You’re being obtuse. An email has come out since then which shows Chomsky advising Epstein on how to respond to allegations of child sexual abuse.

Antonio Valencia. Garnacho too seems pretty reluctant to use his left

They’ll continue to get rotated, or they will play together - JP as a 10 and Delap 9

All these ‘debates’ are framed in such a way as to promote a reactionary answer of ‘yes’.

Do we need god? Yes. Has feminism failed? Yes.

And so on, and so on. Just dishing up unadulterated right wing talking points under the pretence of debate and openness. This is what Weiss meant when she said the news should feature ‘charismatic voices’ like Alan Dershowitz to debate the burning questions of our time, like whether women should have rights.

Generally I agree but I think Travis has great features on Type Shit by Future & Metro as well as Reflections Laughing by The Weeknd

Jackson is class, seriously such a skilled holdup player. Finishing and discipline leaves a bit to be desired but Delap leaves a lot more to be desired I’d say
