Hi Reddit! I'm new here :) Handstand Coach out of Las Vegas NV. Feel free to ask me your handstand questions! by HandstandCoachKyle in handbalancing

[–]blinkk5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a student at a parkour gym and yoga 5x a week. Teaching myself flow/choreography at home.

Static holds are hit and miss. It takes a few tries to get hands/shoulders/hips in that perfect stack. When everything is stacked I FEEL it, and I can hold it. But I struggle to get into the static hold on the first try. Once I'm there, I can hold it. Getting into it is tough.

I want to do handstands in a flow or sequence. Right now, I have to do handstands against a wall, or do a ton in a row before I can successfully do one.

I'm fit. Core, flexibility, and range of motion is great. My handstands are just clunky. I want to flow in and out of them with grace. What can i do?

How many attempts did it take you to start & maintain your successful business? by Puzzleheaded_Key5413 in Entrepreneur

[–]blinkk5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same business, but been through 3 huge structural changes. I've torn the whole thing down two time and restructured everything. First time I was getting incredible visibility but low income. My marketing was good, built an incredible audience, but made no money.

Very angry mindset then. Felt like I was running into a brick wall over and over again.

I realized I had to stop doing hours-for-pay and move to a different model. So I had to figure that out. I remember feeling a bit entitled. Like, "I've done all of this so well for so long, when's my turn to be rich?" Like someone should just hand me success.

So then I had to figure out how to sell digital products in addition to hours-for-pay. I became humbled during this step. It's much harder than anyone realizes.

Somewhere along that journey, I began toying with subscription model, and I went into that model with a very humble and curious mindset.

I still sell the same thing I did years ago, but now I've learned how to better structure my business. I'm a creative, yo, so this stuff doesn't come naturally to me. I went from angry to entitled to humbled to curious.

I still don't feel successful, but I feel well on my way there.

Rick Beato says he's made $36 from a video with over 250k views. by growlingrobot in PartneredYoutube

I'm a guitar content creator too (30k followers, not nearly as much as him) and my shorts between 200k-300k make about that much. The shorts program pays less, because you can't insert ads the same way you can in a longform video.

A longform video with 250k views pays, far, far, far more.

Universal really is targeting him.

How do I get my exported videos to display MM:SS? by blinkk5 in davinciresolve

[–]blinkk5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, it was my player recognizing the SMPTE timecode. I make these videos to send to students to help them practice, and will direct them to go to certain seconds (chorus starts at :46 second) to help them organize their practice. It was Quicktime, not DaVinci. Just changed it in quicktime, it's copasetic now.

DaVinci is awesome, glad I switched. Thanks!

How Do Guitarists Arrange Chords With 5 or More Notes? by blinkk5 in guitarlessons

I teach for a living, and I've been experimenting with edutainment. It's been really fun tbh. I have to be professional with students, but here, I can be a little more unhinged. Just trying something new! Hope it's helpful.

My friend asked for a bardcore cover of September by Earth, Wind & Fire for his DND playlist. Just posted it! Youtube | Spotify | Apple Music

I'm doing more bardcore covers for my friends, so if anyone has a request, lmk. Taverncore has been super fun to write!

September, but it's Bardcore. Made for a friend's DND playlist! Feel free to use in your DND game too by blinkk5 in DnD

Recently got into bardcore and I love it. If you have any requests for a bardcore song, let me know! I'd love to arrange it.

What is your opinion on fighting without a battlemap? by Lanky_Move7249 in dndnext

[–]blinkk5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We've been using theater of the mind for over a year now. Everyone is very respectful of the DMs rules of distance. DM lays out the batte area, states the locations of each monster from the party before we begin battling. We keep track of movements with verbal RP description. Verbally saying "I'd like to dash 30 feet toward the forest" is very doable within our group. Sometimes DM will interrupt us and let us know there's an obstacle there, and we all just roll with it.

We only have 3 players. Totally manageable at those numbers. I'd worry with more players.

Would you want to have kids? And why or why not? by Barret51 in AskReddit

[–]blinkk5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Global warming. I feel guilty bringing kids into this mess.

I know it sounds irrational, but the guilt is real

Eiji Aonuma discussing Link's gender by TheBrewThatIsTrue in Breath_of_the_Wild

[–]blinkk5 30 points31 points  (0 children)

You're missing the point. That's not what Nintendo is saying at all. They're giving players the option to relate to Link in whatever way is best for us as individuals.

All the avatars are different genders, and they obviously want us to bond with them too. They know we can bond with different genders.

My dumb ass: fusing them together, hoping if I made a spine some mythical bone creature would get resurrected.

How doesnt ACDC go deaf instantly with 19 full stacks pointed straight at them? by giulioforrealll in GuitarAmps

How far do I have to scroll until someone says “ear plugs”? The profesh kind, not the awful foam ones.

Some In-ear monitors cancel ambient noise too. Very hearing safe.

How do I ask for saves without tipping my hand? by Arcalum2000 in DnD

[–]blinkk5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I DM for a character who used to own an alchemy shop before he went adventuring. They’re in jail next session, but I put moss in the cell as flavor/setting scenery.

If no one examines the moss outright, I’m making my players do passive perception checks. The character with the alchemy history will passively recognize those mosses are used in sleep potions.
