In my language chocolate is “coklat”, which is also the word for the color brown. So you’re not wrong

I kinda dropped off during Smith’s era and I’m now catching up. Up to the last episode of series 12 and I’m actually enjoying Jodie’s doctor much more than the ratings/reviews. And strangely I didn’t enjoy Capaldi’s run as much as I’ve seen people love him. I kinda got tired of how angry he was throughout his run, so I was glad to see the joy back with Jodie.

Is TTRPG live play community allowed?

!criticalrole@lemmy.world For live play D&D show Critical Role (and all their other ventures, including Daggerheart). Currently it's just us 2 mods posting mostly even though we get comments from other members here and there.

That's fair! And honestly, since it's been so long since I've even picked up a racquet, I wouldn't even know how I hit. It seems that even though the tennis courts don't have a shop, they have racquets for hire so I might start with that for a few sessions and see how I go. Thank you again!

Oh the 430m is mile? I read it as meter and was confused by the 690k

Do you know which Pro Staff you have currently? I checked online and they seem to range in price from $150 to $400 (AUD).

As for the K-Swiss Hypercourt, I do notice that it's recommended for wide feet in a lot of reviews. Unfortunately I can't seem to find it in a physical store near me to try them on.

Thank you!

Barricade is still known as a top tier shoe

That's what I thought as well from a quick look online. I went to the store to get them but they also had On shoes that I tried, and they felt more comfortable, but I wasn't sure about its durability so I haven't bought them. Looking at reviews online, it seems that durability wise they're okay or below average maybe. But then again, a mid-30s woman playing beginners tennis probably doesn't use the shoes nearly as hard as those reviewers so I shouldn't be too worried about durability.

Thanks for the advice on the racquets as well. Unfortunately the tennis complex near me doesn't have a shop so I'd have to find one.

My grandma loves miniature everything, especially cute homey things (she has sets for different “rooms”). Whenever I travel anywhere I’m always on the lookout for them cos she’d appreciate these more than the generic city/country souvenir. Always really hard to find though. These look amazing!

 

Hello! I'm a beginner tennis player looking for a racket and some shoes. I technically played growing but it's been about a decade since I stopped. I used to use Adidas Barricade (I think) and a Wilson Hammer. I liked the heavy head. But it's been a very long time, and everything has changed since I last played. Just wondering what's a good racket for beginners or intermediate.

For shoes, I'm considering On Roger Pro since they feel better on my wide feet than the current Adidas Barricade, but open to suggestions as well.

Household of 2 adults (me and my partner), where we mostly do things that we prefer. Personally I think I end up taking charge of things that he would do less often than I would.

  • Shared: vacuum (1-2x a week), taking out trash/recycling (as needed), dishwashing, general cleaning (tables/countertops, dusting, etc)
  • Partner: cook (2-3x a week), floor mopping (as needed)
  • Me: laundry (as needed, ~1x a week), changing & washing towels (every 1-2 weeks), changing bed sheets (partner often helps, every 3-4 weeks)

Just a warning, I’m a wimp and got scared in one specific scene/puzzle. It’s a very minor horror theme, ended up having to have my husband sitting on the floor next to me facing the other way to complete it cos I got too scared. Loved the series though, amazing games.

Can we bring back Relics & Rarities and have Jon on as a guest?

 

The 24-year-old from the Czech Republic is ranked 42nd in the world and becomes the lowest-ranked woman to win at the All England Club, and the first unseeded woman to reach the final in 60 years.

What a win for Vondrousova, but it hurts for Ons.
