It's the final positions in the group. bottom to top, 1st to 4th

In a very different way to most of the answers on here so far:

A Pigeon Sat on a Branch Reflecting on Existence.

It's simultaneously excruciatingly dull and mindbendingly interesting. A genuinely fascinating film, but requires a huge amount of focus and commitment from the viewer. Possibly my favourite film ever

I've been using the term "post-developed" for a while now, mostly as a crude joke. However, unfortunately I think as time is going on it is becoming more and more apt to describe certain western economies.

Perhaps something along the lines of "when a society shifts from long-term investment to short-term cost saving, it is at risk of becoming a post-developed economy."

So much of the UK's decision making seems centred around how "we are so great" (cough EU is stopping us from achieving our potential cough) rather than "we need to invest to be able to compete."

Even Thatcherism, as toxic and awful as that was, was centred around pushing the economy forward to a new level of (horribly misguided) development.

Of course, I'll caveat that I am severely under-educated on these topics, but it is a running theme I'm starting to see emerge.

Had a quick scroll through and didn't see it anywhere yet, so:

Dear Esther.

Actually, reminds me I should play through it again, it's been a few years.

Not seen anyone say this yet, but last year my partner and I were in a similar boat. Bumble (the dating app) has a "BFF" mode for making friends. It's worked out amazingly for us and we now have a great group.

It can take a bit of persistence, and like dating, some won't work out. But it's a great way to meet potential friends, and even in relatively small cities you'll find some people on there.

I read somewhere he has a special release clause in his contract if he isn't registered by a certain date, so he would probably end up back at Man City (or if someone else wants to snatch him in a free)

This is honestly such a spectacular shitshow. While simultaneously being an incredible work of financial engineering to manufacture these levers and injections of cash. Likely we will see courts involved, and it would be interesting if the nonpayment results in barca retaking ownership of assets that were "sold" last summer. Effectively renewing a "lever" for them.
