doesn't using your bad hand feel like a stranger?

You would know more about that than I would. I prefer not using my hands.

Show me the hottest girl in the world and I'll show you a guy that's gotten bored of plowing her.

Nobody makes love to me, better than me.

With the news about Realpage getting sued in the states, I wonder if something similar is coming here in Canada, it's one thing to have software that helps you do market research to set your prices, but when everyone essentially outsources their pricing to the same 3rd party, it starts to feel a lot like price fixing.

I mean, there's been complaints about these companies for a while now, the question is whether something beyond "calls for scrutiny" will be done here now that more a spot light has been put on the practice.

Too much of one thing can be detrimental as we saw when CrowdStike’s single automated software update brought much of the global economy to a sudden halt. It affected 8 million Window machines and industries such as hospitals, airlines and banks along with 10s of thousands of other businesses.

Tech giants are involved as dominant players in software (and/or hardware), payment systems and content. Does the general public/consumer benefit from these multi-trillion dollar companies consolidating and dominating multiple markets, or would more competition behoove the average citizen/consumer?

Let it heal up properly, and do the strength exercises. Don’t be an idiot like me that kept playing two years with foot problems. Specialist just told me that full recovery is usually as long as when first injury occurred.

Physiotherapists are the bomb. Use exhaustively, if you have health insurance.

I second this advice. Similar journey with my shoulder after a sleeping on the couch injury and it wasn't until I finally dragged my ass to Physio that it started improving after complaining about it for at least half a year prior. Even after all that time she found the lump and had to go to town on it for a while. Of course a large part of that is following through on the strength exercises, as mentioned, but at least they give you specific helpful ones.

I also agree. Take your time and really strengthen it; go to physio and actually do the exercises.
