I think my sister maybe forgot, or I wasn't listening. Its pretty akward, and most likely my fault. It usually is when it comes to her and me.
The weird part is the relationship with her is actually a decent one. Both of us left out of state for life and I think we just got caught up is all. Still feel like an asshole even if someone else could have told me.

These OW Halloween cosmetics are top notch. And you can buy them with coins.

On a serious note things get annoying when they aren't in arms reach as well.

Yerp, it's broke'd. Multiple fractures in the tip, radiologist will let me know more, but whatever, this basically makes my workload super light until I'm laidoff for the year.

Along with many games, but that one looks super fun.

I thought automatics only take one foot If you're right foot is out of commission you're pretty boned. Not that you couldn't use your left theoretically but the doctor always tells you no driving. Also have you ever tried using your left? It's for a good reason they don't let you
|
The doctor tells you not to drive because:- 99% of people don't have any meaningful experience or practice using their left foot to drive, and without that experience and muscle memory it's actually very dangerous.
- If something has disabled your foot, you're probably on some medication which precludes driving anyway.
- Even if both of the above aren't true in your case, there's still a performance hit due to pedals being designed for the right foot and/or because you're right-dominant and your left foot is thus less coordinated in general.
So in theory you can drive effectively with your left foot, but if you didn't thoroughly train it before your right foot got injured you really shouldn't try (and even then).

i can drive manual with just my left foot (not very well but enough to go places*), automatic is probably super easy mode
ofc i dont think there is a doctor that would recommend it ayy
*unless those places require starting from 0 kmh uphill, then youre boned

Anyone have any particular preferences on music streaming services? I'm looking into them to see if I'd be interested.

I use I heart radio on my phone. Its pretty good once you get a custom station personalized, and it felt like less ads than Pandora.

When you say "drive" with just your left foot...how? Like, you can hit the bite point of the clutch and slowly engage 1st gear, but beyond that?

I use Google Play. In general I prefer the Play radio to Spotify, although I think the Spotify Discover functionality might be better. Are you looking for free or paid services? I don't have much insight on the former since I've paid for music streaming for years.

The discover stations on spotify have always impressed me.

I use spotify. Ads are a bitch tho. Probably way better with sub.

Like, you can hit the bite point of the clutch and slowly engage 1st gear, but beyond that? a lot of changing foot position to stop without killing the car you need to horizontal to hit clutch + brake, but otherwise you only really need one pedal at a time shifting up gears just requires you to go a bit faster initially (not even necessary once youre on 3rd gear or higher), shifting down is super ez
its really not that hard everything just takes a bit longer + engine complains occasionally
as said, the only real struggle is starting uphill. stop-go traffic is annoying too but possible if you dont care about ppl bitching at you
