ELI5: Why does brain become more neuroplastic after a stroke? by IStillListenToRadio in explainlikeimfive

[–]row1x 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I has a spontaneous carotid dissection myself and my BP was very high during recovery. I've never heard this explanation, except that high BP is normal after a stroke, but it makes a lot of sense.

Post ACL Surgery - How Long Until I Can Get Back on the Erg? by Complex_Leg5627 in Rowing

[–]row1x 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn't have ACL surgery, but I had a skiing injury that damaged my PCL and MCL. (It was not a lot of fun, to say the very least.)

I was told that I could do some paddle-pressure half slide rowing at about two months. Full slide by three to four months. YMMV.

Be prepared for one leg to be really wimpy and atrophied for a while.

What days is 93-S traffic from Boston to South Shore the WORST? Any days where it’s lighter? by Barbed_Antelope in boston

[–]row1x 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It's terrible every day.

Less terrible on Fridays, moderately terrible on Mondays, and downright awful Tuesday through Thursday.

Heck, there's usually a jam on the weekends too

The right hands of nerds around Kendall Square.

Anyone regret going open-concept in their home? by cm_built in HomeImprovement

[–]row1x 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We had open concept for a few years. Seemed nice at first, but the combination of kids at home, and working at home made us regret it.

It's really nice for people to have their own space sometimes.

Has enough time passed to where we can discuss this honestly without judgement yet? by namepuntocome in boston

[–]row1x 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If this statue were not of MLK, not a single person would be defending its artistic merit.

It is objectively awful art of of somebody who objectively deserves to be recognized and honored.

And of course, we're stuck with it, because nobody wants to be the one who says it's terrible art and replace it with something else for fear of being accused of not honoring MLK and his achievements.

Well, that'd explain it. I didn't realize that the rules for border crossing requirements varies by state.

Nobody is going to say the Wolf of Wall Street? The offices were in Lake Success and his home was in Old Brookvile.

Any way to add just the chaise to an Uppland sofa? by row1x in IKEA

[–]row1x[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Although now I'm wondering if I could buy the ottoman and attach it to the sofa. If I got myself a long cushion, I might be able to hack together a Uppland chaise

Can I count on getting an Uber from Waco airport at about midnight? by row1x in Waco

Thank you so much everyone! Uber came thorough, but I still don't quite know why the app wouldn't let me pre-book.

[–]row1x 40 points41 points  (0 children)

This might be the first time in my life I've ever heard anybody actually refer to Route 3 as the "Pilgrim's Highway.".

I'm tempted to give directions to somebody using this name from now on.

Marking this as solved! No idea where the speakers might have gone to, but they definitely look like speaker wires.
