Onigashima
[wrist saga]
Onigashima
Did not even bring my wrist braces to work today
Onigashima
lingering pain is halving every day
Onigashima
barely even noticeable now
Onigashima
finally I can go back to a life without sweaty hate clamps latched onto both arms
✶ 天鈿女命
you rise, stronger than ever before
you rise, stronger than ever before
Onigashima
well, slightly weaker, but
Onigashima
now I know about wrist stretches
Onigashima
Worrisome Red Spots persist but I'll give those a few more days I guess
Onigashima
and certain angles are still a bit painful
Onigashima
but my life can return to normal
Onigashima
casualties: six weeks, guitar as a hobby
kamikasei
Yeah keep up those stretches
Yeah keep up those stretches
Lord Nick
I'm just gonna be That Guy and point out that defeating the evil in that scene doomed the human race to extinction
Lord Nick
But congrats on your wrists feeling better
Onigashima
#yolo
Lord Nick
Fair enough
Onigashima
we had it coming
RobotApocalypse
did they give you steroid shots for 'em?
Onigashima
some kind of shots
Onigashima
I forget the details
RobotApocalypse
probably, then
RobotApocalypse
awesome that it is working for you
Onigashima
yes
Onigashima
I'm ready to have functioning hands again
RobotApocalypse
RobotApocalypse
i got a steroid shot for tendonitis once upon a time and it went away for like a month and it was great BUT THEN IT CAME RIGHT BACK so i have some advice from that experience for you
Rama
I googled to try and find the source of that image and it turns out The Cabin In The Woods is a very different movie from what I thought it was
RobotApocalypse
which is even though they don't hurt anymore, keep treating them like they do
Onigashima
Cabin is great
Onigashima
very strange, but one of my favorite Whedon works
RobotApocalypse
ie keep activities restricted in the same ways you were when they did hurt
Onigashima
thanks for the advice
Onigashima
am I cool to at least not use the fuckin wrist braces as long as I'm being fairly chill and taking my meds
RobotApocalypse
because if you do what i did and just go on like shit's normal suddenly, you don't actually give it the chance to heal and it just gets worse!!
RobotApocalypse
yeah you should be fine w/o the wrist braces
RobotApocalypse
i'd still wear them to bed but during the day you should be cool as long as you're nice to your wrists
RobotApocalypse
steroid shots reduce the inflammation and thus eliminate most of the pain, but don't actually heal any of the stress damage, they just provide the chance for it to heal w/o inflammation interfering
Onigashima
I will continue with my stretches and not playing guitar
RobotApocalypse
o7
RobotApocalypse
MAN it's a huge bummer that you have to put down the guitar bc of it though
Onigashima
it
Onigashima
really is
Onigashima
I'll probably bum aruond on it once in a blue moon still but
Onigashima
yeah
RobotApocalypse
why are bodies just the worst
Onigashima
keeping my hands intact takes priority
RobotApocalypse
when is science going to allow you to scan your consciousness into a computer so you can exist entirely free of pain
Onigashima
then I can achieve my true dream and shitpost 24/7
RobotApocalypse
the true american dream 
Easted
you could even still run games by distributing your consciousness to roll20
Onigashima
I'd GM more often
Onigashima
no rent, no food, I just need to work enough to cover my streaming subscriptions
Onigashima
shit I'd miss food so much
Onigashima
kamikasei
You could have food in the simulation obviously
Onigashima
oh OK even better
Onigashima
now I can eat whatever I want and not gain weight too
Onigashima
