[Free talk] I had a work presentation today about a project I’ve been working on for a few months. It went pretty well and my jerk boss liked it. I’m so relieved.

Congrats man. I know the feeling. I have a mild case of ADHD that results in me not being able to do anything productive until I get important presentations out of the way in a day so I try to schedule them early in the day. But my boss used to love them at the end of the day because it "gave him a clear mind". You can imagine how crazy I went the whole of the day before the presentation.

Oh yikes, I think I kinda understand what you mean. I don’t have ADHD (or it’s undiagnosed) and if I have a presentation later in the day I will obsess about it until it’s done.

Such a good feeling! Proud of you. Now heaps more room to stress about our next game, lol.

[–] throbbingpens 2 points 1 year ago

I’ve already been doing that since last week :P

Congrats! That must be so relieving

Thanks, really was! I was also glad that most of his comments were constructive and useful.

england needs its own song

[–] coygsu 2 points 1 year ago

You love to hear that

[–] Astrealix 3 points 1 year ago

Simon Hooper for the Everton game, with Attwell on VAR at least he's not malicious but he's gotta be one of the worst lol

That Southgate quote about Foden is really quite damning I'm not gonna lie

"He doesn't [play centrally] for his club, so presumably there's a reason for that," said the Three Lions boss.

"You'd have to speak with Pep [Guardiola], the best coach in the world, who plays him from wide. He's always got the freedom to drift if we play him wide and that's important. It depends on the level of the game, really."

(source: https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/66781875)

I do think I sort of agree that Foden is better from wide spaces but "presumably" is... extremely damning on his tactical acumen. Tbf as an international manager he doesn't get much time to experiment but like, cmon. "Presumably"? Meanwhile Wiegman just casually puts Daly back at LB and wins the Euros with her

Things just went from bad to worse for Scotland

[–] coygsu 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

now they might have a chance thanks to the legend Harry Maguire

[–] coygsu 1 points 1 year ago

and the door is shut, masterful build up by Jude Bellingham

[–] Astrealix 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Tbh it kinda crazy that we went from Cedric helping us push for Europe to Cedric failing to start on loan at Fulham in just a year

[–] Astrealix 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Honestly idk whether that says more about us or him or them

[–] throbbingpens 2 points 1 year ago

I completely forgot he went out on loan to Fulham.

[–] Astrealix 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Overslept my alarm; on the bright side, it's just a recitation and I haven't missed anything important

i'm a college student, you're joking

[–] throbbingpens 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Only half joking haha. I used to take sleep for granted until my mental health got really bad (because of other shit) and resulted in insomnia.

[–] Astrealix 2 points 1 year ago

I'm also joking about the joking bit, I know it's important but like, my mental health is nonexistent either way so it's cool

[–] Astrealix 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Fifa ratings are actually pure crack lmfao wdym Jen Beattie can't shoot and Ødegaard is worse than Bruno Fernandez and Rice is equal to fucking Diogo Jota

[–] coygsu 2 points 1 year ago

IT'S HARRY MAGUIRE

[–] Astrealix 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

[–] Astrealix 1 points 1 year ago

Also just realised I really don't care about this friendly lol, someone tell me how Ramsdale does though. Doesn't help that I don't get to see half of it cuz imma have to walk to class later but yea

[–] Astrealix 2 points 1 year ago

Ramsdale's reportedly starting today in the "friendly" against Scotland.

[–] coygsu 1 points 1 year ago

Love watching KT and Saka battle it out

[–] MHPengwingz 1 points 1 year ago

I absolutely feel bad for Maguire but eff you dude, Aaron could've had a clean sheet 🤣
