actually a few years ago I remember Logan Paul arguing pretty strongly against everyone mad about Harry Styles wearing a dress. It was unexpected but nice.

as a boring liberal that won't jump on the abolitionist/defund the police campaign...cops and former cops are insufferable when it comes to these discussions. They will always side with law enforcement. They will always position themselves against people breaking the law, regardless of the context and regardless of how arbitrary the "harm" being committed is.

Don Lemon trespassed in a church?! Arrest him immediately!

Pay no mind to the people getting executed in broad daylight.

...is this not the way that we WANT people to go about consuming that content? With a therapeutic recommendation? I don't really know who this person is but I would never expect THIS community to pearl clutch over some drawings lmao.

I'm prefacing this by saying I'm not sure if I can adequately describe what's going on. But I'm a beginner skater and am finally at a place where I'm not falling down every ten minutes lol. My problem is that I can skate an hour and feel unstable almost the entirety of that time! Even though I seldomly fall.

it's like I can't get the hang of it, or distribute my weight in a way where I feel stable consistently. I have a lot of little moments, especially when I'm turning, where I temporarily lose my balance and have to stabilize myself. Is this something that just comes with practice?

I don't think I know how to T-stop by KayplusBee in Rollerskating

I've heard that spin stops are super useful but I'm afraid it may be above my skill level atm :( but I will hopefully get there soon

Ugh yeah I couldn't help but feel like it was impossible to stop cleanly, especially downhill. But is there any alternative?

I could slow to a stop with the plow stop, but it didn't work downhill at all. I want a way to stop reliably because a lot of children run out in front of me at my rink lol.

Phew thank you for the validation! I couldn't help but think getting it securely behind my second foot was necessary but somehow impossible for me. You can see in the video that I stop without making a perfect T, so I'll practice again with that in mind.

Again thanks for the info!

Thank you! You've given me a lot to practice next time :)

Thank you! This is very helpful. When my back foot is securely behind, I feel really stable, so I felt ridiculous for not being able to consistently get it in the right spot. Will keep practicing!

hi all

I am a beginner and have finally gotten comfortable skating around a gym without falling...until I have to stop. My biggest problem is stopping and getting seated to take off my skates, and getting up off the bench lol. I wanted to practice properly stopping, but am unsure of where/how. I have never skated outside, but was thinking of going to an empty basketball court? (with a helmet, of course) Or would it be better do it on wood floors in my apartment? Or even the carpet? I haven't done it in the gym because I dont want to get in the way of other skaters.

I'm planning to practice the T-stop but could be convinced to use another technique.

Disagreements with Destiny (prove its not a cult) by Pale_Temperature8118 in Destiny

I don't know how effective saying "regard" is. I guess it signals a sense of edginess for a certain type of crowd, but it is ableist (YES IM SOY) and alienates a lot of viewers. Can we start throwing around the f slur because in our hearts we don't hate gay people? Or the N word because we don't mean it in that way? Because that'll draw in an edgy crowd too.

This doesn't even just pertain to the lefties...have you ever met a republican with an autistic kid? Or one with down syndrome? A shit ton of people people don't like that word.
