Hi welcome to Well There's Your Problem, it's a podcast about engineering disasters. With slides. What you see here is an X-ray of a right-hand. It's not supposed to look like that.

That's cool, but keep in mind it might not be smart to link your Twitter and hexbear accounts publicly. Makes doxxing easier.

they already are and I am already a local public figure thanks though.

slapped the ham too hard, didja?

This makes me wonder what mine looks like after I dropped a 4x4 on it last spring. The grip in my left hand has really not been good since then, and when it's cold outside it gets very hurty and pointy and swollen in the areas that got smashed, especially if I try to grip anything with it.

But from what I understand, the "fix" for this is immobilization or surgery! Yours doesn't look very complicated - so just the cast to immobilize for a while, and then check in? What's the plan going forward?

If you don't mind my asking - how did you break it? Forward force - like punching something - or did something drop on it?

Car crash, he posted about it the other day in the megathread.

...I need to log off, don't I?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 7 months ago (2 children)

Maybe, or maybe I need to log in harder and more often?!

Hey, neighborliness with the folk in your local that are at least half-way on go is worth a smashed wrist to me at least. I'm just tryna figure out how you're typing with a wrist that look like that, are you just like-- one handing it or smth?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

yea left handed typing

[–] [email protected] 6 points 7 months ago

You really don't, but the general megathread is a good time.

This is not a feetsie

Your handbone looks like an anime character dashed neatly past it with a katana

Yup that there'll do it.

Wishing a speedy healing process.

Ouch.

I hope that you're okay and that you're receiving adequate care and will make a full recovery.
