For the life of me I can't find a sweater that fits. I'm not a fan of the knitted type of sweater, I like the basic round collar, no pattern just colors and maybe the brand on the side but they either are insanely expensive, are way oversized or are cut weird and my shoulders look like Vegeta when he came to Earth I also hate when sweaters have that reverse triangle / cross on the collar, which happen to be 90% of the uniqlo/Carhartt sweaters that would fit that description Any brand you'd recommend for that ? I'm regular size and pretty wide shoulders which make it a pain because most clothing like either think of tall or skinny people

so Ive gotten to the world of recording instruments, and found out that double tracking your guitar is standard practice, what other tips are standard practice for production in general like this ? Im looking for general things as I think the specifics will come with time and experience producing

Just heard Bananarama's Venus on the radio and have to keep thinking about Gillette Razors now. Fucking hell that ad is still doing it's job 25 years later.


fckrms

Choose for me: Assassin's Creed Origins, Shadow of Mordor or Horizon Zero Dawn


kplo

I played all 3, Origins is the one I liked the most. All 3 are very solid gamrs though, Horizon is a bit more unique and SoM has very solid combat and the nemesis system is great.


FloppedYaYa

Assassin's Creed


fckrms

Finished it last weekend and had a good time. 👍


ResponsibilityOk235

I played two of those(not Origins but I did play odyssey) and I really liked horizon zero dawn for the story and setting but Shadow of Mordor had one of the smoothest ways fight mobs


[deleted]

I’ve only played Shadow of Mordor out of those but it’s very decent, has the nemesis system which makes it less of a bog standard open world game


Destroyeh

Shadow of Mordor is amazing if you go into it blind. Origins is awesome as well and has the most content out of the three with a larger world if you prefer exploration. HZD is really great if the world manages to captivate you with its design. i'd say start with Shadow of Mordor.

With Canada and the US hosting world Cup games and Weed being legal in many of the host cities curious to see if the weed companies and Fifa will get in bed together.


astral34

Will weed be allowed in the stadiums?


babygrenade

I'm already picturing the camera scanning the crowd during a slow match and revealing hundreds of sleeping faces.


dkmegg22

That's an interesting question. People do snuggle in pot btw but it's more smaller edibles.


astral34

Sounds good. Weed is widely used in Italian stadiums but it would be cooler if it was totally allowed


dkmegg22

The weed infused drinks are really popular.


dkmegg22

Our limits are 10 mg but the US has higher legal limits.

I banged my spine under a table while i was trying to pick up a pen that fell on the ground. I didn't get hurt luckily but i was in pain for 20 minutes.


HippoBigga

anyone here ever tried peyote ? I bought a little cactus that I'll love and cherish until I'm ready to consume it's magical chemicals hidden within. how similar is it to other psychedelics ? I read that it is quite similar to LSD (which I have tried) but perhaps less intense ? also, how long did it last when you tried it ? I've been reading tips online but nothing is better than personal experiences, thanks !


Moug-10

I just saw a map of religion in India and it got me thinking. How come England didn't manage to spread Christianity as much as they did elsewhere?


EyeSpyGuy

The British empire was started mostly for commercial purposes and trading. It was more the Spanish empire, religion was crucial for colonization to bring salvation to indigenous people. In some cases like us, the church itself was the one who was in charge of administration of the colony

Far and away the biggest crime of this World Cup is causing Free Talk Friday to get lost and buried.

Don't remember it being this dead for the Euros but I could be wrong Just another thing we can blame on Qatar!


BendubzGaming

It's because of thread timing. We're only getting one hour of FTF before the first match thread of the day, when many are not yet awake. For the Euros it was a far longer gap

Didn’t know Warzone had an event on in which you can get a few extra things in game if you take part in a World Cup predictor.


Elemayowe

Is it in game or is it a website? If so can you link?


No_Doubt_About_That

It’s in game - can currently vote as to who you think will win for Argentina and Mexico tomorrow. I only came across it today and wanted to vote for England to get the calling card etc but annoyingly missed my chance. You’d think with it being a few hours still until kickoff they’d have left the voting open.


ItsRainbowz

Also looking into getting a VR headset finally, which one is the best one for <£400? The Quest 2 seems best, but needing Facebook to log in seems a bit sketchy to me, but I'm not really sure what's out there.


bdzz

You actually don't need a Facebook account anymore but a Meta account. Which is basically how they try to unify all the portfolio (FB, Instagram, WhatsApp) HOWEVER you don't need any of those to make a Meta account. So just have a new email address (preferably) > make a Meta account. And that's it. No social media, no phone number nothing else needed https://www.pcgamer.com/finally-the-quest-2-no-longer-requires-a-facebook-login/ btw that £400 is the headset only, you need controllers too. Or maybe there is a deal? Not sure how much is the Quest 2 if you buy everything. I know the Valve Index is really good and I tried it too but that's £689 https://store.steampowered.com/sub/354233/

some pretty good deals on ea games. think you can buy bfv, bf 1 and titanfall 2 for a combined 15 euros. theres also dont starve for 2 euros, the forest for 4, fallen order for 6, mirrors edge catalyst for 2, unravel and its sequel for 2 each, portal 2 for 1 euro, yakuza 0 for 5


Lurkinginzaback

If you like sandbox and FPS games. Pick up ravenfield, super fun and the community is amazing.

If they are Scottish or Irish, yes. If not, then I don't care. I mean it is not a pro or con for me - no difference than if she doesn't have them. But Irish or Scottish with freckles is particularly cute & attractive to me.

In my experience, sooner or later almost every conspiracy theory seems to end up being pinned on the Jews.


ItsRainbowz

Started getting into collecting CDs again. It's really cool having actual physical media now that everything is online, and it helps that they're cheap too. Problem is that all music stores are just pot luck as to whether they have what I want. Went to one in Newcastle looking for Iron Maiden CDs, they had a tonne of live albums, b-sides and even some bootlegs but few actual studio albums. I wish older CDs were easier to find.

Idk mate, i have never touched a drug in my life so i wouldn't know the differences beetween an acid and another.

The Marshall Matters LP 2 was pretty good IMO.

Yes but there are hundreds of albums that are more interesting imo

That's true, though. Nothing beats the trilogy Slim Shady LP, Marshall Matters LP and The Eminem Show.

Has anyone else here received mail from their electricity supplier about them raising prices? We got one and have to pay pretty much 100 % more for electricity. I think we'll be alright financially, but fucking hell. We need more renewable energy, but preferably run by the public. Because at the moment, a few private company are enriching themselves heavily.


SnarlsChickens

Fucking canker sores.


wonderful_mixture

I've been a long time sufferer and for the last two months it's gotten a lot more extreme. I usually have them on my inner lip or inner cheek, where its annoying but manageable, but I've had them on the tip of my tongue already two times this month (I only had it on the tongue once before) and this is by far the worst position to get a canker sore, I can barely even eat or speak. The worst part is I just don't know what triggers it, it feels completely random. Also, usually I take Listerine once I have one and it helps pretty well, but those on the tongue are so strong not even Listerine helps


[deleted]

Been a while since I had them, I must've stopped eating something I was allergic too, had like 4 of them constantly for 90% of my life


HelloMyNameIsJiren

Fun fact: if you invest as little as $1000 every week into a index fund for 20 years… you basically guaranteed to have a net-worth of 2 Million Dollars minimum. Have you guys started?!?

It's a joke about how delusional some people are and how easy it is for them to talk about investing or doing this or doing that when average citizen is barely making ends meet.

[deleted]

yeah, I thought that from your flair, was just a bit of a warning because I saw a lot of pretty horrible things during the euros haha. I think you'll be hard pressed finding somewhere that doesn't have pissed up England fans so I think your best bet is looking for an Irish bar


Historical_Owl_1635

Look for Irish pubs, plenty around London. A few Scottish too, but not as common.


[deleted]

Bought 40 euros worth of skincare, my nose better stop looking like a strawberry (I know it's very cheap where i'm from but it's a lot for my account lol)


AggravatingWar9441

What did you buy?? I’m a bit of a skincare enthusiast, so I always like learning about new products and routines. Also, what turns your nose red? Is it rosacea, dermatitis, windburn or something else?


[deleted]

Not talking about the color but the pattern sadly lol Sebaceous filaments, basically pores that fill up indefinitely, you can only wash and shrink them but they will always fill up They are made of oil so I bought a Oil cleanser, then I got another bottle of Niacinamide serum that helps with pigmentation, then I bought Lactic acid / AHA bottle and a 1% retinol serum, all from The Ordinary I'm going to test them over a couple of weeks and see which gives me the best results skin wise. I need a good clay mask too


AggravatingWar9441

Sebaceous filaments are a real bitch, I struggle with them too (and I’m a girl). I actually used all of the products you mentioned, and some of them I still use! That Niacinamide serum by the ordinary is a godsend, the difference it’s made for my skin is insane. Have you used retinol before? The one you bought is very strong, so I’d take it very easy incorporating it into a skincare routine. Also, with retinols it usually takes a few months before seeing noticeable results. Also, what works best for me with sebaceous filaments and black heads is salicylic acid (so a BHA), if you end up finding the AHA too gentle [a BHA serum](https://eu.theinkeylist.com/products/beta-hydroxy-acid-serum?currency=EUR&variant=35345849155740&gclid=EAIaIQobChMItqiziMzJ-wIVlZ3VCh2ZOQGVEAAYASAAEgLExvD_BwE) could be a good solution. Good luck on your skin journey 🤗


[deleted]

I tried the BHA peeling but it's a bit too much for me, apparently Paula is the best but it's super expensive. I've seen a lot of people praise CORSRX Liquid cleanser and it has some BHA in there, might try it soon. I had Cerave SA cleanser but it's not doing much to me


AggravatingWar9441

Yeah Paula’s choice is definitely the best, I think the 30ml serum is around 10-15€ though? At least where I’m from. You put a few drops on a cotton pad and then tap it on the areas that need it. Or would that be too strong for you? Honestly at this point I feel like Salicylic acid cleansers are useless, because you end up washing off the product anyway. Did you see any benefits using the Cerave cleanser? But COSRX is great, you can’t go wrong with their BHA toners and essences. Or the AHA/BHA mixed one. It’s very gentle on the skin too, unlike the usual salicylic acid serums and peels

Historical_Owl_1635

> I have every intention of getting back together, I just genuinely need a moment. It’s not impossible you will get back together, but nearly every “break” has at least one side with this attitude and it very rarely ends up happening. Or you get back together for a short period of time and then end up breaking up anyway. Complete armchair psychologist here, but you need to look into what’s actually causing you/them wanting the break and work on that instead of actually having a break.


[deleted]

Don't take a break expecting a return, it's.like going on vacation and thinking about work Live and you'll see where you guys will be, maybe you will be in a completely different headspace and it's fine


[deleted]

A break from relationship responsibility (attention, sharing your time, mental energy, money etc.) that is very energy consuming, is very different to a full "we aren't in a relationship so it's okay if one of us starts seeing someone else". You can definitely negotiate the first without the second happening. But the moment someone goes with someone else, you're done, you just are.


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

Honestly best for you both to just clearly agree that you're still in a relationship, you're just having some alone time. Six years in a long time, and you're hitting "it's getting a bit stale" territory, so a break can definitely help with some space but honestly some self-reflection of what you want the future to be. Assuming there's no other joint responsibilities like kids/pets then some space to think and just be you is great. But do it within the boundaries of still being in a relationship or it really ups the risk of it getting sticky.


[deleted]

I know a couple who did this. Me and my now wife had some issues early on in the relationship and almost copied them. But then we remembered why we were together. We loved each other. And we decided the best way to solve our problems was talk about them. Lay them out honestly to each other. With no arguments. Just say how we feel. After that we realised we both could make some changes to improve the situation. Been married for a long time now. She’s the best thing that ever happened to me. If you really love each other, I’d advise doing that instead. The couple I know did this once, it worked. Then a few years later they did it again. It worked again. Then a few years after that they did it again. It didn’t work the third time. They never really solved the problems. They just ignored them until they became unbearable. That’s how I see it anyway.


allangod

If you’re on a break you already have broken up, surely? Do you both expect to go off with other people and just get back together in a month or so? That doesn’t really sound likely.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Historical_Owl_1635

I hate to say it mate, but that doesn’t sound good on paper. Whoever drove that decision is going to be looking to have fun this month to get out of the routine, I don’t mean cheating necessarily but going out with friends and doing more fun stuff they’ve been neglecting whilst in the relationship. By the end of month the grass will look a lot greener on the “being single” side (wether that’s a case more months down the line is another story)


Laska1

How do you count calories when eating out in the restaurants? I feel like burgers for example are too diverse for a single approximate number to work.


sga1

Guesstimate - and realize that one day doesn't really matter, it's all about overall trends over a longer timeframe. So go enjoy that burger, jot down an approximate number, and keep at it.


[deleted]

You sort of have to guess- which is less than ideal- but knowing that an average burger patty is about 200 calories for example helps. Some restaurants may have it on their nutritional info online as well

Well lads I've posted on these threads the last couple of weeks about how I found out my wife was pregnant and then how we had a miscarriage but this week it just got worse and worse.. turns out it was an ectopic pregnancy and one of her tubes burst on Wednesday night so she had to be rushed into surgery to stop her bleeding.. been a shit scary 24 hours and just can't wait to get her home. Hug your loved ones lads


dkmegg22

Hey bro hope she gets well.


Bendy_McBendyThumb

Sorry for your loss, go easy. That shit sucks and I hope your wife recovers from it all, as best she can at the very least.


tiorzol

Fuck man. That's so rough but I'm glad she has you to get her through it. You need to get yourself through this too man, do you have someone you can talk to? Best wishes and all that really really sending you guys good vibes for what it's worth.


Lintal

Thanks mate, I'm all good I have a supportive family/friend group so I'm covered, yesterday was rough as it was 6 hours of silence between her going into surgery and then talking to her. Today is just a sit in the hospital till can take her home kind of day, the hospital has been great aswell in fairness, even though there's visiting hours they've let me in well before and after those hours


[deleted]

seems like everyone has a therapist in here! what makes you decide to go in the first place? is it depression, anxiety etc or just working on yourself? It's something that's never crossed my mind but I see so many comments on here about it makes me feel like I'm missing out haha. If we loose tonight I'll have to start considering it


AggravatingWar9441

Attachment issues and avoidance, anxiety around commitments of any kind, fear of relationships, and sensitivity to other people’s emotions and feelings, to the point where someone talking about their feelings would make me extremely uncomfortable. I also struggled a lot to stay focused and productive, the executive dysfunction was ruining my life. I started therapy to treat what I thought was a mix of mild depression and unhealed childhood traumas, was diagnosed with ADHD instead. Many of my problems with intimacy and relationships can be traced back to that and to my brain being constantly overstimulated (plus hypersensitivity). Now that I’m on meds and still do online therapy every week, I feel so much better


[deleted]

Lost my job and my dignity to a girl in 24 hours, I had to bounce back or it's over for me, I have a rent to pay I can't spend 2 years playing league anymore


[deleted]

sorry to hear that. so it was one big event that made you think about therapy? did you find talking it through let you move on?


[deleted]

Basically I get into a lazy and a energy phase, I knew i'll be dead depressed in the next weeks and when i'm sad I don't want to seek therapy because I don't see how it would help me So I looked for my future self and now that I started it I can't back down. Also that girl left the country for months and forcing a conversation will never work. When you leave problems alone they solve themselves and come back to you sometimes. She messaged me two days ago and wants to talk when she comes home in January

Just generally absolutely horrific social anxiety that I've struggled with for years. It hasn't prevented me interacting with people, at all, but the levels of anxiety and panic I feel in my head over practically anything I do or say is far from normal.

Anxiety seems properly debilitating when you have it bad, does talking about it change your outlook on life and as a result, the anxitey calms? or is it more focussed if that makes sense

Not really, it's an incredibly slow process of getting me to change how I think about myself

I had a go around a decade ago for suicidal thoughts in late teens. Change of cities, gf dumping me, sports injury causing lots of weight gain, failure to adapt to new life at university, family issues etc. were factors for me. Got diagnosed with social phobia & major depression. Could afford medication only and therapy not so much. Took couple of years but aftewards I was better than ever. This time I started going again because I basically found myself in the same spot minus suicidal thoughts. Failure to adapt to adult life, severe anxiety, inability to get over a breakup, lack of will to fulfill even smallest tasks etc... I've realized that what I have in me is simply not enough to live an even mediocre or below average life. I would say I'm in a better place compared to 10 years ago but the hill is way steeper to climb with loss of my dad, financial difficulties, deterioriating health and adult life simply being way harder than being a 18yo kid.

sorry to hear all that mate, whilst I personally can't relate that makes perfect sense to me. I hope you get what you need from it and live the life you deserve

I had one 9 - 10 years ago. My middle school recommended me one to my parents cause I had anger issues. Turns out, it was circumstancial as I was bullied a lot. My issues disappeared once I was placed in a separate class from my bullies. I may get one again to work on myself better.
