My life was changed when I stopped going to the gym for a long hard work out and switched to what I call “strength snacks”. I do two circuits of three exercises twice a day.

I think that walking can be a great start. But also doing some sort of resistance exercise is also important and useful. You can start with a body weight routine and move up to weights once you are solidly into the routine.

I had to read the title like four time.

It’s how I’ve made like 80% of my friends.

I wonder if someone tried claiming damage to their personal car?

I want to take a slightly different track than talking about how awful the US healthcare system system is (and I can and do rant at length about it since I’m a former healthcare worker). One rare but significant outcome of fractures is that because bone shards are really sharp, they can sometimes nick or sever your veins or arteries. Part of keeping you “under observation” was to make sure you were in a place to get care at the speed you would need in the case this happened to you. Doctors (especially EM doctors) are trained to consider the worst case possible outcome and mitigate that.

This is going to fuck over people who are exploiting WFH to say, work two jobs

can you explain how this would catch people working two jobs esp if they are both WFH jobs?

I have a bit of dyslexia/dyscalculia so writing numbers from step to step often results in errors. I also had a bad teacher in 6th and 7th grade so I ended up with a lot of stress/shame which means I have a pretty significant gap in my understanding of concepts that has carried through every step of math since then.

When my wife was in university and had weird down times she would do Amazon MTurk. It was pre-pandemic, so I don't know how things are now, but I think she was regularly getting $200-400 a month (covered her car payment).
