If You Don’t Feel These 12 Specific Things, It’s Likely Not True Love | Jed Diamond

Looking for that special someone is a big deal for a lot of people. With tens of millions of Americans using dating apps and websites, it’s pretty clear most of us are still searching for real love, not just a distraction or someone to fill space. Finding a relationship isn’t the hardest part anymore. The harder part is knowing whether what you’re in is actually love or just comfort, routine, or chemistry that fades away over time. Not everyone knows how to recognize the difference, or how to tell if love is growing in the right direction. And when certain key feelings are missing, it’s often a sign that what you have isn’t true love and likely won’t last the way you hope it will. If you don’t feel these 12 specific things, it’s likely not true love: 1. Romantic love Vera Arsic / Pexels We all know the feeling. We meet, we connect, and we fall in love. When we’re in it, our world is turned upside down. We’d rather be with our beloved …

The Dominik Diamond alternative game of the year awards 2025 | Games

So, how was 2025 for your household? Was it really all as good as you pretended it was on Facebook? Full of A-grades for the kids and riotous themed fancy dress birthday parties for the grownups? Or was it a sea of disappointment with only occasional fun flotsam? And was any of it actually real, or are we all now seven-fingered AI slop beings with Sydney Sweeney’s teeth? I have gathered my thoughts (and the Diamond household) together, whether they wanted to or not, to reflect on the most important thing in any given year: which video games we enjoyed the most. Without further ado: Game eldest daughter played the most: Just Dance 2024/Horizon Zero Dawn/Pikmin “Can’t you pick just one?” “It’s not my games column.” On her phone, meanwhile, she’s been playing Cityscapes and “trying to find decent healthcare”. “In the game?” “In real life.” Overwatch … respect. Photograph: MJB/Blizzard Game middle son played the most: Overwatch“I don’t play games on my phone.” He was offended that I even asked him that question. I …

Jim Belushi on Kristen Stewart, Ken Kesey, Neil Diamond, and the Sweet Music of the Milwaukee Accent

Jim Belushi on Kristen Stewart, Ken Kesey, Neil Diamond, and the Sweet Music of the Milwaukee Accent

Jim Belushi is having another moment. The 71-year-old actor has spent December pinballing between red carpets and media hits to promote a pair of new movies. In between, he’s driven up the New Jersey coast, visiting several dispensaries to celebrate his cannabis brand’s partnership with High Grass Farms. And he capped off his east-coast adventures by sharing the stage with his daughter, Jami, and the James Montgomery Blues Band, headlining Rhode Island blues shows in Newport and Cape Cod. A very Belushi blend of family, work, and fun. “It happens every so often when everything kind of lines up,” he tells GQ, checking in from a Manhattan hotel. “I feel very lucky this year.” The “luck” started with a supporting role in The Chronology of Water, Kristen Stewart’s directorial debut, based on Lidia Yuknavitch’s memoir. He pops in about halfway as Ken Kesey, the generational LSD-guru author of One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, who takes Lidia under his wing in a creative writing class at the University of Oregon. As a tender, goofy, pot-smoking …

Igor Jesus is becoming the diamond in Forest’s £200m spree for European glory

Igor Jesus is becoming the diamond in Forest’s £200m spree for European glory

While there remains question marks over some of the other summer additions, Jesus is far and away the most impressive of the lot. “Igor has come on and looked sharp, he stays alive and his finish was absolutely superb,” said Dyche. “It’s a really good win for us and I think it would have been harsh if we’d not won with our performance. “I stepped into European competition when it was a tricky time but the squad mentality is really good. “We’re going to the next phase after Christmas and now it’s about getting on with the Premier League and we know we’re still got a lot of work to do in them.” This was Forest’s first away victory in Europe for 11,013 days since a win over Auxerre in October 1995. The goal on that night was scored by Steve Stone, who is now part of Dyche’s coaching team. Forest’s return to Europe, after a wait of nearly 30 years, has felt like a trip down memory lane. In their last match they faced …
