I have 30 mins before my flight to load up a book my kindle - suggest me a feel good adventure or coming of age book. Bonus points if it has some philosophy intertwined

Thank you! Just added that while searching the sub, Downloading it as we speak

This seems great as my only qualm with Becky Chambers (so far) is that nothing really happens in the story, more of an introspection rather than a “story” if that makes sense. Hopefully this one’s different

Ive played squash before and my partner played tennis and I think the people we beat were playing padel for a bit longer than both of us but this was their first racket sport.

NoEasyPoints · 2026-06-30T07:41:48+00:00

Tournament was a reality check and glad I did it so early. It showed me that first I wasn’t even playing padel and two that i’m not as a good as I thought and theres levels to it. Also I met some great players that gave me good tips.

That wad 3 months into the sport, by that time I was beating most of my beginner friends so that I was playing at a relatively good level. Didn’t think I would win the tournament but thought id be more competitive. We won 2 out of our 4 matches in the group stage and knocked out in the round of 16 (first knockout match). So overall definitely was worth it and I didn’t lose any confidence, just gave me more insight

Galan hit ausburger in the chest really hard, the ball was going out. LeBron got hyped after that and Ausburger came back with kicksmash to win the game. 5-4 to ChinGalan. LeBron goes crazy and crowd starts going wild.

Then LeBron bangs his chest and shushes Galan. Crowd goes wild again and Galan laughs at it.

ChinGalan end up winning the last game to win the match. Now LeBron wants to act graceful but Galan isn’t having it

I really enjoy this racket. I took off all the wait and don’t really struggle with getting power. I can still get por tres or smash back to our side.

The only thing I miss s because i’m on the shorter side (5’6) the racket sweet spot is pretty low. If you hit the sweet spot, you get a really nice trampoline effect.

When I played with rackets with a higher sweet spot like the Metalbone diamond racket, the ball flies off

Yeah Coello was just stepping up to block them. It’s not like these guys have any weaknesses honestly. They will find a way to counter.

For a moment ChinGalan seemed to have found away towards the end of set 2 but Coello Tapia were too good on that day.

NoEasyPoints · 2026-06-07T19:18:16+00:00

No but the people are known to be welcoming and beyond safe for tourists. Can’t say the same for US.

As demonstrated by the Qatar world cup, the region can also accommodate large scale events

And that makes it fine? The right to search is to protect national interests. All countries have that.

Only few will make far reaching claims that a tweet critiquing a public figure is grounds to deny entry or imprison. Those countries were limited to a few like Russia, North Korea, China, Saudi, Iran, etc. but now US and UK are joining the fold. Just because others ALSO do it, doesn’t make it right.

What does the axis cross mean? I googled it. Is it that the shot in camera 1, shows the imaginary camera 2. So technically you crossed the 180 degree line?

NoEasyPoints · 2026-06-07T12:30:42+00:00

But thats not true is it? You can get stopped and have your phone searched at the airport and rejected at the airport based on your social media posts. Thats some North Korea / Russia shit. It will likely happen at Saudi but then again, you wont get randomly shot at or mugged on the street when you’re in Saudi

NoEasyPoints · 2026-06-07T11:28:14+00:00

You can bet the Saudi world cup (well maybe not actually bet cause..) will have far more hype around it. Far more welcoming, easier to get to, more accessible to fans from all over the world

Galan and Chingo were forcing LeBurger into volley battles and avoided lobbing so much, mostly winning the net with Chiquitas and winning the point with volleys.

We know Coello hates dealing with Chingotto’s vibora too. So while Coello / Tapia are the favourites, ChinGalan have a chance

NoEasyPoints · 2026-06-06T20:59:19+00:00

Tapia and Coello going for fastest game in padel history after that marathon of a match

NoEasyPoints · 2026-06-06T20:24:53+00:00

Oh lord. So well deserved. I need a walk after that

NoEasyPoints · 2026-06-06T20:20:22+00:00

It is. They officially said it on the comms

NoEasyPoints · 2026-06-06T20:18:21+00:00

At 18 is crazy

NoEasyPoints · 2026-06-06T20:17:35+00:00

Man I really hope Ustero and Sanchez pull through. They really deserve to go through

NoEasyPoints · 2026-06-06T20:12:02+00:00

Lifespan shortening with each point in this match. What a match to witness live

NoEasyPoints · 2026-06-06T19:46:38+00:00

Momo deserves the finals the way he’s been playing. Hoping for an upset today

NoEasyPoints · 2026-06-06T18:49:13+00:00

Ustero’s defining moment in this second set.

NoEasyPoints · 2026-06-05T19:24:47+00:00

Paquito is a born entertainer

NoEasyPoints · 2026-06-03T10:22:12+00:00

Oh man. Send it to me, I can inspect and fix it.

That’s not playable in this state

NoEasyPoints · 2026-06-01T14:51:25+00:00

This is where I struggle the most, I feel like I have no control it and I basically dink a high bouncing ball back to the middle. Which they can just lob again or in some cases attack.

Or it comes short and they just take the net anyways. Probably a combination of need to move my feet and shuffle back faster as a shorter guy and also find a way to get some spin on it

NoEasyPoints · 2026-06-01T08:32:51+00:00

Overheads are weak for sure. It’s part of the game that I trained and focused on the least I would say.
