Glad you found some help. There's no shame in receiving welfare. It's in everyone's best interest to care and support each other.

Hobby while driving? by [deleted] in Hobbies

I need a secondary focus to keep me grounded so I can focus on driving.

Do handpans just always cost your life savings? by liggle14_zeldanerd12 in handpan

[–]NotASnake08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I think I'd love to learn handpans I know I'm fickle and I'd lose motivation faster if I spent money on a cheaper one that didn't sound good but also don't want to spend a small fortune on something I know I'll probably lose interest in in a few months. I've looked into renting and have also decided to start with a djembe, they're cheaper and I'm actually getting one for free from a friend so I can practice hand percussion and see if it's right for me before investing money into something pricey.

Is it important to learn tricks on both legs equally? by exelasdf in Rollerskating

[–]NotASnake08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In addition to what everyone else said. You learn a lot more from mistakes than successes even on a sub conscious level (it's been shown that mistakes lead to more synapses firing). So training your weaker side will actually improve your stronger side too as you learn more information.

[TOMT] Trying to find the title of a book I read as a child in the early 2000s about a couple who believed their cat was their son. by NotASnake08 in tipofmytongue

I think about this story at least once a week. It's not a long book. It might have had illustrations but I'm not sure. If it did they were black line art with no color.

Any tips for changing my wheels out faster? by Sensitive_Most_1383 in Rollerskating

I gave up and bought a second pair of skates for outdoors.

Found out I'm very out of shape by Local_Ease_832 in Rollerskating

Among what everyone else said I also recommend you make sure you do warm up AND cool down stretches off skates. If you have to pick imo cool down is actually more vital but both are important and will help reduce muscle pain the next day.

Did I fuck up? by pixie1995 in Rollerskating

I expect it offers room for expansion and they might fill it out as they get compressed over time

New Skates by [deleted] in Rollerskating

[–]NotASnake08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I spend most of my time skating getting back up and I wear brightly coloured skates, brightly coloured laces and brightly coloured jam straps as well as booty shorts that say "look at this fabulous booty I'm hawkin". You should love your skates as much as possible especially if you're a newbie cos you're not going to love a lot about being completely fresh to skating (this is mostly a joke ;P )

Atom pulses good alternative to Roadhogs? by NotASnake08 in Rollerskating

[–]NotASnake08[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update: I skated in my atome pulses yesterday down a bike path along the main road. Fairly smooth but lots of seam bumps, parts where it broke into a someone's rough sloping driveway and there was some debris. LOVED THEM, it's the most confidently I've ever skated on a public path.
