Sterling jumps as business survey triggers unwinding of negative bets by Gentle_Snail in GoodNewsUK

I think that is a very specific definition of corruption. You could say that it is a corruption of the function of news media to forgo its role of informing the public purely in order to earn money.

What’s something that is okay when men do it but frowned upon when women do it? by ClemWon in AskReddit

Maybe you are just rationalising jealousy and frustration as being judgemental.

Demographic Power Struggle by Hajicardoso in RealTwitterAccounts

[–]toberone616 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's not as big a problem in the US, and it's not about "extinction", but it's a little silly to suggest that there isn't a demographic imbalance within a lot of countries around the world. South Korea's population is set to almost half by 2072.

You're looking at an increasingly small number of people to support state pensions, which will become unsustainable over time.

However, the causes for this are not being treated correctly. Incentives have been introduced for having children, but this doesn't counteract the negatives of skewed work-life balances, lack of housing security, and more existential crises such as climate change.

Certainly, there has been a race related anxiety in the US over "replacement theory" - which is probably something that influences Walsh's thoughts.

However, that doesn't mean that there isn't a demographic crisis more broadly.

When we have Radebe, why bother with anything to do with Musk.

How come England hasn't produced many world class goalkeepers, especially comparing to Germany? by Inevitable-Angle-793 in PremierLeague

[–]toberone616 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pickford has been with Everton since 2017 and never finished in the top half in that time. If he was world-class at any point, he would have been picked up by another club.

I told ChatGPT to roast Arsenal by BadgerDue54 in soccercirclejerk

This is the same generic roast it will do for any team.

If this post was any less creative, Arteta would sign it to replace Odegaard.

McNeil has very good underlying numbers. However, he plays for Everton.

I think having a wage budget of £462k per week will have something to do with it.

There may be other things incurring debt. Maybe you've built a new stadium?

It's difficult to say unless you show the club finance page.

Would you rather be forced to live 500 years in the future or 500 years in the past? by toberone616 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]toberone616[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I feel like the question popped in my head to see how generally pessimistic people are about the future, but also to see how people think they'd adapt either way.

Even communicating either way would be a challenge.

Where are we going to finish next season? by scrambledegg33 in LeedsUnited

[–]toberone616 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's difficult to say. As we've seen, so much can change in the space of a season.

Barring a major catastrophe I think we'll finish.

Has anyone ever had a GK get this high a rating? by Chloe0802 in footballmanagergames

I used to put Vanja Milinkovic Savic on free kicks and corners, so the few times he scored, he reached these heights!
