Research shows the more you have in common with someone the higher the chance of that relationship succeeding. There are 5 main areas, I always forget one, but it's basically family, religion, education and money. I think Background (ethnicity) is the other. But honestly, as long as you respect...

I've noticed the big surprise is the Swiss squad, a couple of surprising and convincing victories. Canada is destroying everyone as expected, but yeah, I wish there were more coverage of it here, not just in Mexico, it's also hard to watch in the States as we have the NHL playoffs to worry about.

Well, Toronto Leafed like they never Leafed before and lost game seven. I'm not going to be as hard on them as others have saying they had a complete meltdown, cuz hey, they did force a game 7 at least. Guess I'm cheering for Edmonton now. Actually, Either EDM or Dallas will do TBH. Anyway...

Ideally, urban life tends to allow people to NOT follow patterns and norms, but people still do to a great degree. BUT it also allows you to find your tribe. I'm 41, I can count on a single hand the people I consider family/really close friends. One doesn't really need more than that if you stay...

Priest, I was in talks with the Jesuits. Anyway, I don't think I'll be participating much if at all to be honest. There's already a religious belief thread and I really haven't bothered to brush up/keep up with anything outside of the broad strokes of "abortion bad!" "gayness bad!" "Usury is...

Taking a break from crushing student's dreams IRL. I'm on my last week of the semester, putting up grades and meeting with desperate students, ugh. Anywho, haven't had much time for gaming, but I've made a summer resolution of sorts. I have A LOT of games on my gamepass play later list, so I'm...

LOL This reminds me of when I was in 7th grade and a classmate of mine asked me why I read so much. I was reading Crichton's Disclosure. I handed him the book and said, "page 114," he flips to it and couple seconds later his eyes just go wide. the NEXT DAY he had his own copy LOL.

For tonight I'll just post this, I'll make serious contributions when I'm not stressing out over minor life events

So because talking about an American becoming pope isn't US politics enough or at all guess here will do

Didn't someone open one already? I think Forostar opened one, I'mma look

I wonder if anti-catholic sentiment will rise, since they've always been criticized for following a foreign leader.

So The new Pope is from the U.S Robert Prevost aka Leo XIV. Time to make the Vatican great again?

up until fairly recently it used to be common that to skip the automated menu one could just press 0 and get a person or even random menu buttons and then that person could get you to where you needed to be. A good example is my bank. I call with a simple question, the menu options have NOTHING...

An Ex of mine back in college read Grapes of Wrath and HATED it LOL. Said it was boring as fuck. However I have seen the movie for East of Eden and LOOOOOVED it. James Dean, gone too soon. I'lll keep an eye out for both. I'm still, slowly, working through The Great Train Robbery.

I've only read Of Mice and Men and loved it. Any others I should read?

Could be both, could be inflated ego from being a celebrity who have ridiculous easy access to anything they can think of. I'm not a fan of Kiss, they have one or two enjoyable songs and that's it. However I was a big fan of the reality show Gene Simmons' Family Jewels. The reason for that being...

Went to Foreigner last night. It was a really cool show. A coworker told me about it 2 months ago and I was interested, then she said, "They're performing with the original singer!" "you son of a bitch, I'm in!" Lou Gramm is one of the reasons I love early Foreigner, not to mention the parade of...

And he fell asleep, lol The bigger headline is he had a one on one with Zelenskyy. From the looks of it it was WAY less contentions than the one in front of the cameras AND from the little I've read it looks like Trump is finally putting two and two together that Putin isn't interested in peace.

Thanks! I forgot to mention the most surreal part. I went to the pet store where I got my dogs and the guy that sold them to me was still working there. As soon as he sees me his face lights up and with a huge smile says, "Hey Onhell! How's it going!?" I greet him with a big handshake and then...

That definitely sounds like a good possibility and I agree next time you could ask her out to chat. I have no idea how it works in Europe, but I always tell my students to go out for coffee on a first date, no alcohol, no food (like dinner), that way no risk on making a fool of yourself by...
