Fantastic! I really hope you like it :)

And yes it is! !idlehands@lemmy.ml

I also have a few posts on there in my post history, if that’s easier to navigate to!

Yep you can! I have a set on my wrist right now, in fact. Some styles can be very clunky and annoying (esp with the tassels, which are needed to be able to slide the closing bead down to slip it off your wrist and give you slinging room) but if you shop around a little I’m sure you’ll find something that works for you.

I personally never go anywhere without arounsquare’s nano mkultra set - pricey, but I’ve definitely gotten my moneys worth. You can see them in a few of my other posts on here. I also got a great set from workshopfidgets on etsy, similar to this set here. There’s also loads of other great sets on etsy, and the internet in general!

Sorry if this was long, I’m just very passionate about skill toys and fidgets of all kinds - hence having the ‘idle hands’ community here haha

Komboloi might be up your alley. They’re more skill toys than fidgets, but it’s still something to do with your hands

That image makes them even more frightening looking...

Very cool though. It's astounding how it's simultaneously not that long ago that this was, how long it took for humans to have the collective knowledgebase for this to happen, and how exponentially far we've come since then.

it's in the walls

Literally anytime I send my dad (retired IT) a script I've been working on and he sends it back with the equivalent to red pen corrections on a paper / telling me all the various avenues of exception handling I need to add

Oh this sounds really good! Alfredo sauces are usually a no go for me (I’m lactose intolerant and vegetarian) but Parmesan doesn’t contain too much lactose so this seems perfect.

Seems like the addition of something like peas or asparagus would be extra delicious as well!

Loving actually having conversations with people, instead of talking into the void where by the time you see a post it's already so old that commenting is useless

I love the concept of a federated network, it definitely feels way more punk than just being another data set for a corporation

I do wish a few of the more niche subreddits had similar communities here, but I'm trying to do my part by making that content

That’s what’s nice about getting older though, you stop giving a shit lol
