How do I not absolutely vandalize my sneakers

So today I moved from my beloved Af1s to a DC court graffik (sue me I know) but I'm too scared I'll rip them completely and I'm not a fan of buying a new sneaker every 3 months. I started skating about 2 months ago and don't do any tricks but I find it pretty fun and I do some entry level stuff like rolling in, going up some ramps, going up a quarter pipe (about halfway) and gapping small gaps. I go about 3 times a week and spend about 4 hours at the park. I can't Ollie yet but I'm pretty confident I will by the end of the summer. What I'm most concerned about is ripping through my sneakers. I just can't afford it and as a teenager you guys know how important it is to go to school looking at least ok. I don't mind wear and tear on my shoes (my Af1s have torn where my ankles sit but that's no problem) I'm not digging having a massive hole tho. Maybe it's just me

Watching post Enies lobby for the first time is so painful

Im currently on Post Enies lobby and Im at the scene where Shanks goes to talk to Whitebeard about ace. Ive been spoiled Ace's death of course and I just feel like that gif from interstellar where he is punching the glass just going "Please whitebeard listen". The fun tone from the party at Water 7 & Franky getting ready to build the sunny just gets demolished

Warzone is impossible to get started in

I started playing warzone two days ago. I have 60 hours on apex and 550 on counter strike. First game i queued squads and it was fun I made it to second place. Then i started queuing solos and getting killed by people who bunny hop and have the craziest movement with insane gun skins and level 80s. What can i realistically do

Just finished season 8!

Well season 8 is done so I'm going to rant about what I liked or didn't.

STRONG DISLIKE:

BRING BACK THE FUNNY INTROS AND THE OG SONG NEEDS TO BE IN EVERY OPENNING

Likes:

Seeing lots of Wesley was fun

Glasser storyline was interesting

Pentagon storyline was interested (peak of the season)

Aaron's back

New important character - Helena

Ending (Even do I don't like the fact that we were so close to not have a cliffhanger season It ended up being one AGAIN)

Monica death and that storyline was pretty fun

Dislikes

Elijah Stone

?Luna cheating? (Not sure how to feel about this one)

Show was kinda going all around trying to do something just ended up being a shithole (ex: Why does Elijah Stone need to be back and why do we have an entire episode on Bailey's highly intelligent rookie just give her a job and continue)

Super shop was wacky

Wesley not having an office is also wacky

Wesley took the deal to work for Everett even tho he doesn't need more money

Celina phone thingy

The entire filming crue that worked with Dash

Abigail is so useless just don't

And some more which I forgot.

Overall Rating 7.2 it hit some high marks but mostly it was an ok season

The movie genuinely ruins everything.

Listen the more I think about rott it just makes the series worse for me and I don't understand how it could be this bad. As a star wars fan when I watched the sequels I thought "Yeah these suck ruin the concept" but I love the series. When my kid s.elf first watched troll hunters and the movie ended the way it did, it just ruined the entire franchise. Me and my friends at like 11 years old just all meeting up at someones house just to watch trollhunters and we LOVED it so much. We watched Trollhunters and 3Bellow together but the rest I saw myself. When I finished the movie I didn't realise just how shit it was. Yeah sure I thought "this ending sucks" but not too much about why it was that bad. However during my rewatch I realised and I just cried at some of my favourite scenes especially the one with Jim and Claire In episode 7 knowing that this masterpiece was completely ruined. I mean hell we had an entire episode on why JIM should be Trollhunter and than they were like "scrap that, he isn't good enough, let's make a time loop". But worst of all is without a doubt, the fact that Claire wouldn't fall in love with Jim. No amulet, no armour to impress her, no going to darklands. It defeats the purpose because. He knows strikler is a changeling so they just kill bular no darklands no Morgana no dark Knight NO DUXIE FOR FUCKS SAKES

Am I poser for having a skate pfp?

Yeah that's pretty much it. I have had an ok pfp on instagram for some time so I just got a pfp of me holding my board. I go to the skatepark every other day and can push correctly and tic tac and go up and down some ramps and about halfway to the quarter. Am I poser? Be brutally honest

Normal ban question

I was banned January first 2026 for child safety. A couple months back one of my friend sent me a couple of GIFs which were explicit but they didn't get him banned however once I sent them my account was permanently banned for "Child safety" the appeal was of course not won but the ban said that the account is banned but the violation lasts until January first 2028. Does this mean that I will be able to make a NEW account in 2028 or am I banned for life?

Controls are actually useless.

I dont know how multibillion dollar companies can be so bad at making something like this. I found a way to bypass screen time by the early age of 9 and found out how to make an email, and watch anything on the internet at the ripe age of 10. I dont think parents understand that the moment their kid gets a second browser they cant be cought. I cant understand how family link cant catch you even if you google porn every day just because youre on a different browser. Also screentime is just a curtain and theres an app called viber which you just text and it allows you to send stuff to yourself so I sent a "portable" google on viber and for some reason during downtime viber would never lock and i could just open it and do whatever i wanted. Google, youre doing such a shit job I was laughing with my mom together when she realised just how easy it was for me to bypass downtime

What are your thoughts on post justice Metallica.

Yeah it's that simple. I think all albums except St Anger are really good. MAYBE not completely thrash but I think they're good albums. As a drummer tho that snare on St anger is just such a deal breaker I always try to learn songs by listening so that I can play them without having to learn the tabs from the start and have a breef undertanding and that snare is just terrible. On the opposite note Hardwired and 72 are pretty good. Load and Reload are also ok cuz I pretty much listen to everything and black album is fantastic.

Video of Lars playing one in Athens since everyone is shitting on him for "sleeping"

Yep right here, to everyone saying "Lars was sleeping" its false. He has just swapped kits and the mics were off

Well it's simple. Our coach isn't confirmed and opinions in coach Smith are mixed also 70% the team is like 30-35 years old so I think we fuck the next couple of years and go for a rebuild
