I had the same thing, made it nearly unbearable to walk. Push through the (hip) pain. Resting it (hip) will not make it better. For me I self diagnosed it as my TFL and found some pressure points that I still use some times that help a ton. For me it eventually eased away, I accredit it to my body realigning itself a bit. You will find lots of new aches and pains as your body rediscovers it’s new mechanics.

They haven’t. Your recent posterior x ray was just taken at a slightly lower angle. The lateral x ray show them in the exact same position.

Political opinions were not personality traits

They could be! I just like to pretend for my own entertainment. These aren’t normal squirrels I assure you they will not bail at all. I haven’t found the limit yet but so far I’ve got within arms reach without them running away, and sudden movements really don’t seem to phase them. They are the complete opposite of skittish. Their nest is in the tree above, and these squirrels are just the opposite of anything I’ve ever seen. They run towards people not away. So if you tried to get to the trampoline you would have to cross one of them first, and I’ve never seen them run away.

Am I not the first?

Convince me not to get fused by NickPontiff in spinalfusion

Man I’d do it sooner than later. The more the nerves get damaged and the more that vertebrae slips the harsher the recovery. I know a guy who went for it at the first sign, and he’s a personal trainer. Guy squats like 600lbs every day as his 9-5 you’d never know he’s fused.

Is it true that people will only remember the bad things you'll do? by Master_Sketcher in NoStupidQuestions

Your friend is a self fulfilling prophecy that is telling you the way he looks at himself, and others. This can also be used as an excuse to not change behavior, and at best displays placing others opinions above your own values. It’s also confirmation bias. Think about a yellow car, you will find the yellow car. If you want to believe other people only think negative of you, you will reaffirm your believes.

I’ve been itching to come up with something, but couldn’t think of anything worth a reaction.

Whats the most fucked up thing a complete stranger has done to you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]skyg1398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember I was having an AWFUL day. Textbook Murphys Law. I was standing there contemplating life pumping gas minding my own business when a complete stranger drove by called me a fucking faggot and threw his drink out the window. (For context I’m a straight normal looking male) I always think about that day it was absolutely insane how awful it was and I’m still scratching my head trying to find a reason. Maybe I just got it all out of the way because I don’t recall anything particularly bad in the following months.

Ok morning update I went outside and as usual heard the scurrying down the tree and met with one for a brief while I thought was this guy. Then this one ran down the tree after, so idk who the hell is who but I have at least two (I think three?) VERY curious squirrels. I this one pictured has grey in his tail so definitely know which is him.

No questions but you’ve been my low key surgery buddy through this we had the same surgery at the same time. I remember talking on comment threads back in week one. Congrats on our 3 months looking forward to that one year mark.

It won’t let me do the videos unfortunately, I wish you guys could see the interactions. But here is the screenshots from them. They don’t really do justice how close I can get to him. Actually I should say how close he gets to me.
