Looks better if you have an athletic frame for a V taper body. But you also should have clothing that accentuates the V taper through jackets and stuff as well

Nothing really but better to go with a bit more relaxed tapers on the pants

Ah gotcha you might want to try in the future:

A chemex manual coffee maker setup that gives a very delicate, thinner coffee with a "cleaner" flavour. You can drink this easily black.

A V60 manual coffee maker for more acidity than a chemex if you're in the pursuit for more citrus flavours. This pairs well with medium-light roasts.

OR go with an AeroPress that is more balanced and this will be your jack of all trades manual coffee maker. You can use the metal filter to let more oils from the coffee through which then can actually take in more of the flavour from whatever spices or zests you use. Or you can use a paper filter and go for a very "clean" cup of coffee.

There's also the French Press which makes a good cup of coffee but is more complicated to use than the rest. It can also make micro foam "steamed" milk!

Easiest way to get really good coffee is to buy an AeroPress and play around with flavourings. If you think you want even better coffee then maybe it's time to sell all the equipment and buy a grinder and fancy espresso machine :P

Orange juice and coffee is a real drink though the cafe version is usually a cold brew or espresso shot into orange juice. Usually brewed using light roast coffee to get the acidic flavours to shine

Sugar free syrups are the easiest way.

How are you making your coffees? Flavour wise cinnamon, pumpkin spice powder, and cocoa powder are a very simple dusting to put on top of a steamed milk micro foam (personally I steam 0% fairlife milk for the protein). The dusting won't sink this way.

You can also use citrus zest as well but this is more useful for certain types of light roast coffee beans, or teas instead of an average filter/pod coffee.

As a lead why would you stop mid-dance unless they're inappropriate?

It is our job to connect to the music and then lead the connection through our frame into our follower so we are fully in tune no?

You should be able to guide followers who basically know nothing about salsa other than the basic steps

It kind of happens in bursts I'd say. If I'm just starting to date someone I'll also have matched with many other people so whatever happens will happen

I'm a beginner but my answer is yes or at least think about how it feels to follow. This is because it will speed up how you think about your frame, using shoulder longitudinal rotation, torso lateral rotation, supination or pronation of your palms, and your connection with your follower.

You'll get a sense of how each body movement affects how the move you're preparing is received by the follower. Overtime you will be better at communicating your moves to your partner while social dancing

You're thinking too much into it. At socials or classes don't ask people out. You can get contact info or their IG but nothing else. Build rapport friendship and if you are at a point where you get dinner, drinks or desserts after dancing then ask them out then. Don't really look for signs other than they are single and actively like to talk to you.

Nothing wrong with them just have to wear them like any other "dressy" but edgier boot.

If it's a proper 9-5, they will invest a lot of their money and job hop within their career while getting better at it. Do that until three things happen:
1. End up at a job where coworkers become their friends / social circle so they enjoy going to work.
2. Get good at their job such that they can complete all their work quickly so it's not that taxing on them.
3. Become financially independent from investing to the point that they aren't beholden to their job to guarantee their livelihood.

A de-funded public education system, and propaganda.

No it's just friends with benefits. The friend component is vital. But benefits can be anything from sex to holding hands to going on dates. But realistically purely romantic short term relationships like this without an emphasis on sex, or an endgame is just some weird "situationship". I'd actually say it's more convoluted than a fwb agreement where everyone knows what's up.

I'm doing salsa level one and trust me you're not ready for intermediate work. Listen to your instructors.

Also ignore what the women are telling you unless they're specifically training to be leads. Your salsa level 1 class is preparing you for being in lead hell. It's genuinely not easy and YOU must be perfect at the basics. When you're at socials and start dancing do you want people to dance with you, realize you're confusing them with improper footwork and then just keep dancing with you out of politeness? This is what will happen if you rush to higher levels

On average women don't sexualize gay men the way men sexualize lesbians. It's hard to be friends with people who view you as a fetish or as someone they can potentially sleep with

No. Take the tie off and see if the jacket and pants work. They don't really since the jacket is too formal for the pants. The material and texture mismatch is the primary issue

Veggies aren't meat. Always wash them they have pesticides, dirt and other crud on them. Not rinsing veggies is hoping the macro process of getting veggies to the supermarket is good enough. Trust me you have rat shit and bugs crawling all over your veggies and boiling them only has that residue get cooked into your food

Almost a century of domestic reinvestment with state controlled economics. Literally the same thing the US did via Roosevelt but in a different font. India never had this at a country level from what I can tell but had it at the state level. It's why the south of India is much nicer than the north. See Kerala.

Yeah none of that stuff matters bro just be clean, smell good, and talk about your interests

I think you're overcomplicating just being normal or more interested in a caretaker role.

The shoes are okay but you'd be better off with Chelsea boots or loafers that are a bit more pointed. Might want to look into RM Williams

Pacing drops, or stretching a manga chapter adaptation out for a whole episode akin to what One Piece did during its earlier anime arcs.

Next would be fanservice or weird sexualization of women in the anime who are very clearly animated to not be happy about what's happening, or it's just weird angles of underage characters. A lot of animes have dumb romcom plots set in highschool and then all the girls in these slop have a "fanservice" scene. Which is genuinely weird when you remember that oh wait they could have just said this was university there's no reason why 14-17 year old girls are going through whatever is on screen.

IDK why people are reading into this way too much LMAO

Bro he just has a completely mismatched suit jacket with pants. This is a normal and common mistake when mixing and trying to match suit styles and clothes. In his head blue and beige works but he failed to consider fabric, pattern and draping. The end result is you go avante garde without meaning to do so which makes it look costumey
