Link soup, from quite a range of dates

[azurelunatic]

The usual mess of interesting things I've read, most of them quite out of date, in approximate order of my having read them. Brought to you by my browser crashing twice when I tried to start it after my most recent reboot.

As always, I use Export Tabs to wrangle this. And maybe my current 1,625 tab count will decrease some after I close all these?

Lisfranc (Midfoot) Injury - OrthoInfo - AAOS

If this is of interest to you, I've had it (freak climbing wall injury)!

If it's of interest to you because you have it/might have it, my commiserations.

[azurelunatic]

When I stepped on the wrong part of a disassembled sex swing. norabombay had always told me that I was going to get killed on it, but neither of us anticipated it would be like that!

[rydra_wong]

At least you have an excellent line to explain how you got injured?

If this is a current injury, I hope it doesn't require surgery and is healing well.

[azurelunatic]

Fortunately, it's old, December 31 2018. Late evening. (Which is why I didn't get medical treatment for it.)

[kore]

Oh neat!

Don't know if this is ...

[jesse_the_k]

negative or positive, but I must report
