Right! Like where they even pull this from and they whose the genius that came up with it.

Hands. They’re freaking awesome and allow you to do lots of things.

No this is a pre existing condition called Dupytren’s Contracture which is an hereditary condition.

I would recommend climbing as a sport, or at least giving it a shot as it’s really fun, engaging and rewarding.

Aww missed opportunity my me there.

No, I don’t think I will thanks.

Edit: Added a comma.

I don’t think it’s good to just generalise a whole country of people. I’m not American but I realise we only really see the lunatics and crazy opinions. The regular people are as boring and uninterested as the rest of us, it’s just that doesn’t drive engagement.

Edit: Dudes complaining about mods here being as bad as Reddit stating no alternative opinions allowed. Strikes me if you’re having comments removed on multiple sites, that you’re the issue and not the mods. Perhaps conduct yourself better.

This is what pisses me off about people that go on about I’m sick of this woke society or sick of these “crazy trans people”, or whatever else.

And I’m like brother I do not care and most people do not care. Let people do what they want it ain’t that deep. I’m off the view if it doesn’t negatively affect me then what business is it of mine how people live their life. The things they get outraged over is just from some minority of loons on Twitter and not everybody.

As I say I’ve had no issues with AirPods and my current B&W are passable.

Sure for audio quality isn’t as good Bluetooth as wired but as some who listens to a lot of classical I don’t really have the ears that can distinguish between different bitrates.

I have some B&W Px2s and they’re fine when using the microphone, although the sound quality is the main selling point.

Any of the AirPods that go in your ear have exceptional microphone quality.

I find it hard to believe every pair of headphones you’ve ever tried has been trash, unless you’re just buying trash quality and expecting amazing hardware.

Come again?

Thanks for the response and congrats on your climbing journey. You’ve managed to put into words which I failed to in that the biggest draw is that it allows me to escape my mind if only for an hour a few times a week.

I do plan on speaking with my doctor but being realistic it seems like a non-starter really which is disheartening.

Thanks for the response and I didn’t read it as hostile at all.

I think you’re right and it makes sense really as you only get one body so may as well look after it. It’s just disheartening as this is the only thing I’ve found that allows me to escape my mind and be in the moment if only for an hour a few times a week.

Thanks for looking out dude.

I think I knew that I should stop, but just needed to hear someone else say it. That said I will have a chat with the doctor and see what they suggest.

Cycling is a good suggestion as running isn’t something I can do too often, but could mix it up. Hiking is something I want to do but I need to travel and camp really for that so not something I can use to keep my mind from going to dark places too much.

Thanks for the response.

So generally if you had non fucked up hands to begin with then they would toughen up and build callouses in the places I currently have cuts.

The issues is my Dupytren’s Contracture, but as the other person said I should probably see my doctor about that.

Thanks for the kind words.

The pain isn’t crazy, it’s more just very tender for a few days until I go again.

Thanks for the suggestions. Hiking is something I have been keen to do more, but that’s something I need to travel a ways to do and maybe go camping to do it.

Woodworking is something I’d love to get into but space is a not conducive for this. Same for gardening really, sadly.

Running is something I already do, as a former addict I need those endorphins to be happy, but I am taking it slowly getting back into it.

I will check out the fitness instance though.

Thanks again.

Image 1 is left hand and you can see where I had an operation on the ring finger and you can also the pinky bent at 90 degrees. As well as all my ripped skin.

Image 2/3 is right hand and the main issue is finger 2, and the arrows are pointing at a very pronounced tendon and this is the one that is causing a lot of pain and I don’t know if climbing is exasperating the issue.

Isn’t it the case that a lot of the research is funded by governments through universities and then the pharmaceutical companies come in and scoop up the IP and charge crazy prices.

That’s an interesting read. Thanks.
