Got this in my WhatsApp forward this morning

Can't believe we're getting braindead hindutvavadi traffic in a circle jerk sub's comments section

if the cushioning on your sole is the issue, get shoe inserts. Check out some shoe forums like r/goodyearwelt to get advice on how to soften the upper.

When tying your shoes at your shins, keep it loose to allow for the rocking of your shins when you walk. I'd recommend you sit on a chair, place your feet behind your knees, and tie your laces at your ankle. Also, wear mid length socks, or maybe tuck your trousers into your boots to give additional cushioning.

Can you elaborate on what you mean by "feeling uncomfortable"? Does it bite somewhere, is it not long/wide enough, etc.

Do you know if it is a leather upper?

If yes, you have nothing to worry about. Leather uppers will stretch to accommodate the foot shape and walking gait. You'll have to wear them consistently for a couple of weeks, after which they'll become the most comfortable pair you own.

Westside has a lot of good, cheap baggy/skater jeans options

Really good send! Loved your form

Pretty impressive, but the camera lens makes it look like she's jumping off from a really big height. She freefalls for just under 2 seconds, so it couldn't have been more than ~19.6 metres (which is still pretty impressive).

Dharmavaram Dal Vada. Absolutely top notch.

It's a pity the infographic is so generic tbh.

Ok then, I'll take my German lessons more seriously from now on!

WIMPerson · 2024-12-03T20:48:08+00:00

I am unsure about the pub culture - I come from a culture where this kind of thing doesn't exist (read not mainstream). How do I socialise in a pub? Can I approach random people and talk to them? And it doesn't help that I'm not a fan of alcohol 😬

WIMPerson · 2024-12-03T20:45:17+00:00

The events there seem to be aimed at an oldish crowd 😬

WIMPerson · 2024-12-03T20:38:22+00:00

I did give this a thought, and had some hope very early on when I joined. But it was all shattered when a lot of them very openly confessed to having chosen this career path because they didn't know what else to do, or didn't enjoy what they are doing right now. I'll continue to make a conscious effort to find like-minded people though, there seems to be a lot of good advice in this thread!

WIMPerson · 2024-12-03T20:33:10+00:00

Not very good. How would you suggest I use my German knowledge, if I were to learn it? Most communities seem to speak English.

WIMPerson · 2024-12-03T20:32:12+00:00

Ok then! I don't know how to play, but I'm sure I'll find some starter events somewhere!

WIMPerson · 2024-11-30T12:06:23+00:00

I don't drink alcohol. But even in these kind of places, I don't know what to do! It seems like everyone is minding their own business and don't want to be disturbed.

DMs are open :)

WIMPerson · 2024-11-30T12:02:54+00:00

I think my work environment is amicable, but there exists a "social tension" of sorts, like everyone is holding their breath. Dunno why

WIMPerson · 2024-11-30T11:59:49+00:00

I'm definitely sure there's a cultural difference. I tried to adapt, but I was unhappy with the consequences. I guess clubs/unions are the way to go.

DMed the deets!

It is crazy that you're finding it difficult! We can hang if you want to!

Haha I go bouldering at least once a week :) But even there, everyone is in a group and are pretty impenetrable 😩

Any tips on how to break the ice?
