The woman posted her dilemma on Reddit’s popular Am I The A**hole subreddit, under the name Czechvegan, revealing she nearly begged her other half to at least get her a Christmas card. But she claims he branded her “materialistic,” despite spending the last of his money on video games for himself, and having the cheek to ask her for gifts. The woman, who revealed she works as a librarian, said: “With Christmas coming up, I did want a gift from my husband, mainly for the symbolism like the thought of getting a Christmas gift, I know he doesn’t have much money because he’s very reluctant to work and skips going to his part time job most of the time, so I told him it could be something small, like a little stuffed animal or a keychain or even a Christmas card, but today he told me he doesn’t have money and won’t have any until next year because he spent his last money on a video game he had been wanting....

How many minutes did the interview last in the end? 24 minutes! This will be just a small crux of the interview as there is a LOT to cover and not enough time on my hands right now....

According to the Premier League website, Sky and BT subscription fees from UK viewers with domestic and UEFA regulations help boost the Premier League’s television revenue. It’s a good bargain for Premier League clubs as they rejoice in spending more than they earn, especially when it comes to individual spending caps for each team. To put that into perspective, the total £3.6bn earnings of Premier League clubs in 2015-16, reported by The Guardian following their review of the club’s most recently published accounts, is projected to have increased to £4....

Instead, phrases that refer to aligning a person’s body to their gender are more appropriate.

The rapid recent rise of AMD is reflected in the impressive Ryzen range, while Apple has successfully moved away from Intel and embraced its own silicon. After a few years of minor updates, Intel shifted to a new hybrid architecture with the launch of 12th-gen Alder Lake chips.

For many decades, the medical establishment and the general public unkindly referred to affected individuals as “feeble-minded,” “moron,” “idiot,” and “imbecile.” In the 1960s, the American Association on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (AAIDD) and lawmakers adopted the term “mentally retarded," which experts considered to be more sensitive at the time. The term “intellectual disability” came about because of Rosa’s Law, passed in 2010 and named after a young girl with ID....
The Nerazzurri sacked Frank de Boer last week following their 1-0 Serie A defeat to Sampdoria, the Dutchman having only overseen two wins from their previous eight matches in all competitions. Marcelino and Pioli were heavily linked to take over as De Boer’s replacement, but it is the latter who has been tasked with reviving Inter’s fortunes. Pioli, 51, has agreed to a two-year contract at San Siro and will be presented to the media on Thursday before Inter plays the Milan derby after the international break....

He has brought his Naples magic to Milan with his side unbeaten in six games (W4, D2). Despite this run, they still trail today’s opponents by four points going into the game....

A Dutch Tragedy Thank you for the article on the assassination of Dutch political leader Pim Fortuyn, who has now become an icon for many Europeans (“Sudden Death,” Europe, May 20). In the context of your May 6 “Europe Turns to the Right” package, the reaction is a reflection of pent-up anger with the political culture that the EU imposes on its member states. A significant result of this culture is that Europe has become a shelter and a hotbed for Islamic groups that can foment their evil plots in the comfort of lush welfare systems and under protection of the democratic institutions they hate so much....
The New Sexual Revolution As the mother of teenagers I found your articles on abstinence most enlightening if not a bit too optimistic for today’s kids (Special Report, Dec. 9, 2002). If the current administration really wants to instill family values among teenagers they would do better by putting more pressure on the media. How can kids expect to remain virgins if they are constantly bombarded by overtly explicit images everywhere they turn, whether it be on television or in movies, magazines or billboards?...
