Yes, we didn’t touch on attachment styles, but so relevant. I wonder if there’s research on avoidant styles and relationship satisfaction in general?

I was being a bit facetious - I agree; it's a drama. Just with moments of brilliant levity.

It's hilarious! It is, also, a wonderful depiction of complex family trauma......Jamie Lee Curtis is *exceptional*.

Really interesting, Connor, thanks. Love Thorup’s approach to the game. He’ll need at least another year, possibly two, before we can fully judge his approach at this level/with this budget.

Does Mark Robins count as a decent Ferguson player-turned-manager? An edge case, maybe?

Top TV: Colin From Accounts. Genuinely funny, moving, relatable.

The Trading Game by Gary Stephenson. Also really enjoyed Great Britain? by Torsten Bell, and Not The End Of The World by Hannah Ritchie.
Much of These Hills is Gold by C Pam Zhang (from 2020, but read this year).
All Of Us Strangers predictably made me bawl. American Fiction also excellent.

Your book was one of the most memorable I read in 2024. Really great stuff. Thank you, and keep fighting the good fight! Merry Christmas from the UK.

Behavioral addictions are likely *not* addictions in the same sense that substance use disorders are. Ideas around dependence, withdrawal, tolerance, and similar physiological processes do not, can not, and should not be uncritically applied to behavioral addictions.
