Pinky toe curled under and won’t straighten, anyone fixed this without surgery?

My right pinky toe has gotten progressively more curled and rotated, and now the pressure lands right on the edge of the nail when I walk, which is getting painful. I tried straightening it by hand and it barely budges, so I think it’s semi rigid at this point. I didn’t think my shoes were too narrow, but maybe I need wider toe box. I work from home these days so spend a lot of the day in slippers

From some research planning: wide toe box shoes, Correct Toes, daily stretching, and I’m getting a podiatrist referral going. For anyone who had a semi rigid curled fifth toe, did the conservative stuff actually improve it for you, or did you end up getting a flexor tenotomy? If you got the tenotomy, how was recovery?

Want to get back to barefoot running but feel I should manage this first…

Thanks!

What are these spikes? (WI)

This is on a young maple, more prevalent on the lower branches. But seems to exist a bit higher as well. Guessing it’s bug based? Should I be concerned?

[Tenant US-WI] Applying to rent an apartment after 2 years staying at a family cottage for free

Hi! Wondering if this raises any red flags and what I should do to mitigate them? The last two years I was staying at my family’s summer home and was not really paying rent (paid a bit in the beginning then did some work around the house but not market rate)

Now applying to rent a place from a management company and wondering do I just put my parents down as landlord and put $0 rent?

Credit is 790, have legit landlord references the years before current, income is 13k/month (gross 1099 contract) for a 2100/month unit. Also, I have enough in the bank to cover the full year in advance if necessary. No evictions, no debt etc.

Instinct is to be all above board in my application, cause I’m clearly a good tenant and getting cause in a pointless lie would be dumb, but what’s the landlords perspective on this?

Thank you!!
