I have completed my MSc (Business Psychology) from a German university and I'm now looking for PhD opportunities. I have already tried cold emailing (very low response rate) and postings for job opportunities on University boards as well as LinkedIn (these are posted very erratically, I do try my best to apply but finding the postings is a huge task in itself).

Was wondering if there are other avenues I'm missing? Sorry if this question has already been asked and answered here, I didn't find any such posts yet though. Thanks in advance and happy to provide more info if required.

Basically what the title says. I enjoy the Smosh Games content more than anything else and was wondering if anyone had recommendations for similar channels/groups who play games and have friendly vibes (not just competitive game vibes)?

So I (26F) have a really close friend (28F) who I've known for 3 years. She's been with her boyfriend for 6 years. For the entire time I've known her, they have been in a long distance relationship. Also for various reasons, it's not easy for people (eg her boyfriend) to visit too often. I have met her boyfriend because he visited a while ago, we all hung out together, and me and the boyfriend had a friendly relationship.

My friend and her boyfriend were planning their wedding together. They set a date, and even sent out invites to friends & family. 2 months before the expected wedding, we found out that the boyfriend was cheating on my friend. Even worse, he wasn't the one who confessed, it was the girl who he was cheating with that informed my friend. Through the entire time that I've known my friend, she's always said that cheating is a deal breaker to her. However, for her own relationship she wants to see if they can fix this. She did decide to cancel the wedding for now though. The boyfriend is of course very apologetic and says that he is ready to do anything to get back her trust. He said that he only wants my friend now, and that he would be okay if my friend wants to be in an open relationship now. So my friend is free to pursue anyone else if she wants, however he has already messed up and says he knows he doesn't want anyone except my friend, so he would not be with anyone else, even if my friend is dating other people. My friend hasn't dated anyone else yet though.

The boyfriend is also in the process of moving to where we are (initially the plan was for him to move here after their wedding). My friend is aware that I do not like her boyfriend anymore after he cheated on my friend, don't maintain the friendly relationship we had before and that I personally am of the opinion that they should break up. However, I am not and will not impose my opinions on her. I've been very clear from the start that I would support her if she decides to stay with this guy or not, I don't badmouth the boyfriend to her and the only times I've expressed that if I was in her situation I would break up with the guy is when she's has pressed me on it. Otherwise I try to just emotionally support her without giving any opinions because I do not want to influence this decision for her.

My friend and I are planning on going to a trip soon. She has already communicated to her boyfriend that she's gonna 'be single' on this trip, ie open to being with anyone else. I told her I encourage her fully, would wingwoman her whenever she wanted, asked her if she wanted to create a dating profile etc. I'm not influencing or pressuring her to do these things, just being open that I will encourage her if she wants to do them. I also made it clear to her that the extent of communication between her and her boyfriend is up to them. Ever since I initially found out about the cheating, I blocked the boyfriend (because he texted me to check up on my friend a few times) and I have not been in contact with him ever since. So for whatever she chooses to do on the trip, I would not be telling her boyfriend. If she wants to, she can.

I don't know to what extent she has conveyed my encouragement to the boyfriend, but he has since been making comments like 'does OP know we're still in a relationship' and that my friend can do what she wants since they are in an open relationship but why is 'OP being so encouraging about it'.

So, WIBTAH to keep encouraging her to pursue other guys on the trip (if she wants)?

TL,DR: My friends boyfriend cheated on her and she found out 2 months before their wedding. They are now in an open relationship. WIBTAH to encourage my friend to pursue other guys?

not sure if I'm late to notice or what but it seems on the Smosh games youtube description it says 'new videos every Wednesday, Friday and Sunday' but for the last few weeks I can only see 2 videos per week, not 3? is there a change to the schedule or am I missing something
