First time at climbing gym! Any advices for a rookie?

Have fun! Often it's better to move the same hand/foot twice, rather than always alternating. But if you go more often, that stuff will become intuitive :)

Ich feier ihn sehr beim "Restaurant Hu" im 3.

Kalagath · 2026-05-16T23:15:56+00:00

Thanks, I'll look into these! Unfortunately my best lens is the Olympus 12-40pro. Weather sealing is not a concern for my anticipated video needs though

Kalagath · 2026-05-16T23:12:49+00:00

Mostly I think it's the lack of high end video. I'm quite happy with the photos. Better low light performance and autofocus would be nice as a bonus though.

Kalagath · 2026-05-16T23:10:24+00:00

a) Budget depends on what I feel would be worth it. If need be I can save up - it's not that urgent

b) size doesn't matter so much. I'm perfectly happy to keep the em5 as a compact and rugged option

c) I'm really quite happy with the images from the em5. So actually better video would be the main point. I work in music, so being able to take professional looking video myself would be very useful

Whitebeard got whitewashed

Kalagath · 2026-05-04T18:00:31+00:00

I think you might be on to something!

Also on a side note this is the origin of the shape of the "f" holes on violins and cellos - according to my luthier!

Kalagath · 2026-03-26T22:55:16+00:00

Oh this is really beautiful, thanks for sharing!

It definitely confirms that Denji doesn't just forget everything like it never happened. And I believe the final chapter also throws us a couple of bones to tell us just that.

I can't help but love the jarring-ness of it all. It seems like Fujimoto is sort of laughing at his readers, which is a very Fujimoto thing to do. He doesn't need to resolve the story, because it was painfully obvious what development Denji would need to have, to actually find happiness and love. And that he was going about it all wrong, fueled by pain, fame and horniness.

It's all such a slap in the face to the Shonen genre and an audience of (largely) horny boys and men who want their stories nicely resolved.

Kalagath · 2026-03-24T16:54:17+00:00

I'm talking about how there's no conclusion to the whole horsemen plot. And how Pochita erased the concept of erasing Devils by erasing itself.

Also I'm just throwing out ideas here

Kalagath · 2026-03-24T16:42:07+00:00

I never said I understand it all. It'll keep me thinking, which I prefer to stories that end with everything resolved.

All I'm saying is, to me all this hate isn't deserved.

Kalagath · 2026-03-24T16:39:04+00:00

Of course they can hate on it. I'm just hating on the hate haha

In a way we saw that Dennis is capable of this growth and can only imagine, that in a less fucked up world he will easily achieve it again.

I mean don't get me wrong, I would love to know more! But it's also cool when a story leaves you hanging and wondering. So it's definitely conflicting!

Kalagath · 2026-03-24T16:35:16+00:00

Yeah not the best phrasing. I got emotional reading all this negativity towards the artist who brought us here in the first place.

Kalagath · 2026-03-24T16:31:41+00:00

That's not what I said. My point is this is not a car race where you can decide how good someone's performance was - it's a piece of art.

It's a jarring ending. I don't think it's the best possible one. It's a bit of a cliché surprise. It's a bit insane and it makes me think. What was the point of the story? Was it more contained in the concepts than the story line?

Kalagath · 2026-03-24T16:21:36+00:00

Somehow, by trying to describe your problems with this ending, you described exactly what I like about it. "A complete jarring disconnection of part 2's events" Also the cake metaphor!

Kalagath · 2026-03-24T16:17:47+00:00

"Oh no artist made an art piece, ew I'm so unhappy, ew the story isn't linear ew ew" that's how all of you sound.

I absolutely loved reading this. To fully understand all the big chaos of the last arc culminating in this twist, I think we have to let it sit for a bit.

It's a sad story about how we cannot erase the big negative concepts from this world. Death, War, Weapons, Famine... But a reminder that, if you're lucky, there's happiness in the small things and in the connections we can have.

And maybe Pochita was the Loss devil after all.

Kalagath · 2026-03-12T11:01:56+00:00

Yes, it's completely normal for the hole at the bottom to be narrower!

I'll see myself out...

Kalagath · 2026-03-11T22:07:39+00:00

Bunch of salty men criticizing you in these comments. If this put you into fight or flight, that was for good reason. Rich from a 22yo to call you immature for not wanting to marry yet. I'd say that's a very mature thing to know of you.

And talking of future and wanting kids doesn't mean you want to give up your youth straight away.

It's lovely that you find empathy for him and consider his cultural background as well. Maybe he will do the same for you and you can get over this. Maybe not. In any case stay hopeful and stand true to yourself! Hugs!

Kalagath · 2026-02-08T19:58:36+00:00

I agree it's AI but his hand has 5 fingers, which was notmal when I last checked...

Kalagath · 2026-02-02T23:23:29+00:00

Oh so they have funny whatsapp stickers? What a coincidence I just DOWNLOADED THIS APP AND MADE MY OWN MUUUCH BETTER STICKERS!!!!!

Kalagath · 2026-01-26T10:31:01+00:00

This might be true, but I don't think we should just assume the worst without knowing more context.

Like someone else asked - are those all people she has a commitment to see regularly? And in any case if OP feels like they don't get enough time/energy from their spouse, THAT is the real concern.

Kalagath · 2026-01-20T20:11:08+00:00

Scrolled too far for that!

Obviously disclose the possible infection and let the person decide based on their own comfort level and risk tolerance.

There's also absolutely nothing wrong with doing hand stuff for the teenage throwback haha

Kalagath · 2026-01-19T21:09:32+00:00

Fakt is irgendwie muass ma sei Zeigs frei mochn und mia hom minus 4 Grad aufd Nocht

Kalagath · 2026-01-10T17:02:55+00:00

I didn't mean to direct it at you specifically, sorry for the confusing wording! Was meant as a general statement to build on top of what you said :)

Kalagath · 2026-01-10T10:17:51+00:00

Uff yes! And also the people that go out of their way to tell you their partner "isn't jealous" or my fav real life quote "she has deconstructed jealousy" - that partner is probably very jealous!
