I'm the groom!

The "white" tie actually has a small deep blue pattern in it, the photo really doesn't make it justice (but I'm still open for changing things up). I tried some double breasted but none of the models I tried on felt "right"; and yeah of course I'm going to try to fix up some of the hair ahahahah

 

Ignore the messed up face!

I believe it's quite obvious that Girona can't operate at the same kind of level that Man City does, even if they belong to the same state fund. Market just opened up, I wouldn't be surprised if they placed some interesting transfers aimed at generating income for the team while consolidating the identity of the squad. Plus, Savio leaving for Man City is quite a telling sign of this behaviour, imho.

not really; 30 minutes of decent football (which is kind of expected considering the quality Southgate had available) and nothing more.

I wouldn't say he's been a disappointment. His role as a striker has always been more akin to what he's shown in this tournament than what some might expect of him, and especially with this team you could predict that his playing time would mostly be spent on refining offensive possession rather than scoring.

in defense of Matt and Trey, they did apologize on the ManBearPig thing. And it's not like their depiction of Trump is very flattering, either...

We didn’t have Hitler in our history though. You can’t compare roman salute with wolf gesture

Turks committed genocide towards Armenians (and are still perpetrating one against Kurds).

Europeans are uncomfortable with the fact that we just exist.

It's not about existence, it's about extremism and authocracy making its way into Europe. I don't think any European looks at Hungary with respect, either.

Italy also symbolizes wolfs.

Wolves are not correlated, at least in Italy, to paramilitary fascist organisation responsible for war crimes. And, of course, there's always a degree of interpretation: a wolf is a wolf, a wolf salute is a reminder of the violent recent history of Turkey and its accommodation into the reality of "the normal".

I believe Turkey is a wonderful country, but there's definitely better ways to show patriotism than to resort to extremist political affiliation for doing it. Like, I don't know, a Turkish flag?

the fact that "80% of Turkish people use it for pure Turkish symbol", when it is clearly associated with a paramilitary fascist group, should really make you think about why Turkey isn't looked upon nicely by the EU in general. And I'm frankly surprised that even as a "non right wing Turkish", you still think it's fine to use the symbols that are now widely associated with that political group. I can't think of a world where I, an Italian, would use the Roman salute because it's a "patriotic" salute and because "everyone does it here" (even if a large majority of Italians don't, thank god).

could be a whole lot of reasons: he's still the symbol of this Portugal team, after all. He must have a say in the locker rooms (and why shouldn't he, considering); Martinez must think of him as the glue that keeps the squad together (same reason why he must have brought Pepe along, probably). And yeah, probably sponsors too.

taught me once and for all that while death might be always near, a fear that's constantly devouring our lives and paralysing them to the point where it feels like our deepest, inner self is a husk shell of what we once were, we can still find the reason of our existence in the joys of living a life that's devoted in equal part to mystery, sensuality, knowledge and wonder. And it says this in the most democratic way you could think: everyone is entitled and deserving of the complexity of life. Oh, and also: it's an absolutely hilarious book to read through.

never found Joyce to be pretentious (the man knew what he was doing, and definitely succeeded in doing so) or obtuse (I mean, how many writers you can think of that could pull out the mastery of language and human sensibility out of nowhere like he does). I might be biased because I believe Ulysses saved my life: it's definitely one of the funniest, most touching, humane books I have ever had the pleasure to read. I'd push Ogre to keep up with the good work.

Knight moves to C-2, black responds by expanding the chessboard with rook to H11.

 

This shit ass site proposes a paying plan for downloading student notes and I'm so fucking tired at the idea that they basically got a monopoly on it. How can I download the docs?

 

La mia domanda è a fronte della recente comunicazione di ISP riguardo al passaggio a Isybank, e ho pensato che potesse essere un momento adatto per guardarsi attorno.

 

Bella occasione per parlare di un sacco di cose diverse: in primis di Killers of the Flower Moon, che per quanto mi riguarda è balzato direttamente al primo posto dei film dell'anno. Poi, di Letterboxd: voi lo usate? Lo conoscete? Che ne pensate? E come bisogna valutare la decisione di Scorsese di aprire un proprio profilo? Mossa di marketing, sicuramente: ma quanti possono vantare di avere un mostro sacro del cinema tutto tra i propri utenti attivi, tra l'altro con un gusto così eccentrico e fuori dagli schemi come quello di Scorsese?

 

I recently started another run and I wanted to try a fascist Harry but I guess I'll never have the heart to delude Kim. On the other hand, I started interiorizing Revacholian Nationhood AND Krasmazovian Economics at the same time. Am I building a Nazbol Harry?

 

Speaking as a total ignorant from a coding perspective. But I guess that wouldn't be the hard part, considering that most of Duolinguo is just boxes and text inputs. How difficult it is to create a database of competent linguists with an efficient training who can progressively enhance your understanding of languages?

 

And most importantly, what do you think about it? I think it's quite bad except for a few nice details and while being definitely shorter it also feels like it's missing some of the features that make OP such a quintessential read. Nonetheless, still amusing lol

 

As per title. New releases especially are quite hard to find on other clients or p2p resources; what's the best way to get them from the source so that I can share them back?

 

In questi giorni mi sto ritrovando a pensare sempre più spesso a come sostituire il mio povero Motorola Moto G8 Power, con il suo schermo rotto e la sua OS completamente outdated. In tutto ciò, però, mi sto facendo domande su quale possa essere una scelta etica e sensata: il Fairphone mi intriga molto, ma le sue prestazioni non mi convincono. Il primo Nothing Phone poteva sembrare una valida alternativa, ma non so se sia un prodotto "etico" e aperto come Fairphone. Insomma, voi come scegliete quello che vi mettete in tasca?
