inMy sourdough starter survived a 5 day vacation, but my oven spring collapsed anyway
Swap the proofing basket for a simple bowl lined with a floured towel next time. The temp matters less than shaping and how tight your dough is.

inTook a ceiling down twice in one morning over a stud layout mistake
I burned 40 minutes on a laser level once and still missed the joists, so now I always pop a few test screws before I commit to a full layout, saves my back and my drywall order.

inHit 500 followers on my art account and it freaked me out more than I expected
Honestly same energy when my dumb little doodle account hit 250. But the secret is most of those followers are bots or people who followed once and forgot you exist. Post the weird character sketch you made at 2am. That's way more fun than trying to impress a number that'll change next week anyway. If you lose 50 followers for posting something you like, that just means the right people are still around.

inSpent $40 on a lightweight folding lock, now my commute is actually faster
You really trust a $40 folding lock with your whole bike? I watched a guy pop one of those with a cheap screwdriver in about 20 seconds outside a grocery store last summer. My heavy U-lock has stopped two actual theft attempts, and one of them was a guy with a cordless angle grinder who gave up after five minutes. That folding lock might save you time on the ride, but it costs you way more time and money when your frame is gone and you're filling out a police report. The balance thing is just a matter of getting used to it. I'll take a sore shoulder over a missing bike any day.
