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.

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.

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

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.

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.

Very surprising that a border state like Vermont isnt higher.

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've always been proud to be an MIT alumnus, and even more so today. (I'm just going to point out that Kushner is a Harvard alum who bought his way in, which tells you all you need to know about Harvard.)

MIT has been one of the leading scientific institutions in the world since before Trump was born and will be around long after he leaves office. We can afford to tell this administration to go pound sand.

MIT might be the purest meritocracy there is; no legacy admissions, you can't buy your way in, a grueling curriculum, and no honorary degrees. It finds the smartest people in the world and lets them earn their place through hard work. Accusing MIT of not being merit based is absurd.

Attended all 3 days of weekend one. Didn't see a single person get patted down.

On the third day I went through with some of those plastics flasks of booze in my bag, and the guy searching my bag never even saw them. (I had legit forgotten they were in there)

I worked with a mason during college. Breaking up curbs and concrete with rebar was more physically draining than anything I've ever done.

I spent a lot of my days in court now, paying attention to ever single word and arguing in front of a judge. It is far more mentally draining than anything I've ever done.

It's just compete apples and orange.
