My partner and I are hoping to do 3-4 days in Seattle and considering another 3 days in Olympic Park. I broke my ankle 3 months ago so I will probably not be ready for any steep ascents/descents. Wanted to check with experts here if we’ll be able to have a good experience in the park. We’re good to drive around, walk on flat ground, taking it slow.
Bought these over the course of two weeks. I blame my frequent visits to this subreddit, it’s become such an influence.
From left to right:
- xzotic ballpen crafted with wood
- Lamy Safari in charcoal
- Uni Zento Signature in black
- Uni jetstream lite
- Zebra Delguard mechanical pencil
- Pentel Orenz Nero mechanical pencil
The Pentel Art Multi 8 seems to be marketed towards creatives to use it for sketching and illustrating. I’m not artistically inclined at all and aspire to do some doodling with it but mostly just to underline or do color blocks for journaling or planning.
Does that make sense or totally overkill for my basic use?
Does anyone else use this Multi 8 for similar purpose and can share pics for inspiration if you’re ok to share?
I’m looking to stay at a one bedroom apartment downtown and have narrowed my search to these 3 apartment buildings:
Northshore
- Pro: best location imo since it’s very walkable to Lady Bird trail, Trader Joe’s, and Whole Foods.
- Con: kinda old
415 Colorado
- Pro: very new, about a year old
- Con: very few units available at a time, so it’s hard to view an empty unit before committing
Hanover Brazos
- Pro: the rent is lower than the other two options for a one bedder Downton
- Con: views are blocked by either buildings or neighbors balconies
Do you have any insights to these options?

I couldn’t find a pouch subreddit and hope this belongs here. Couldn’t resist buying double of almost every pouch I liked at Muji over the last two weeks 😳
Update: Also, this is only my recent Muji collection. You haven’t seen the Tom Bihns and others I’ve amassed
Update 2: I used to only look at non-Muji pouches, kept being on the hunt for pouches with lots of compartments, water repellent material, etc. But I think in recent times Muji has increased their variety of pouches and the quality is pretty good! Obviously I’ve become a Muji convert. 🫣
Only this group will be able to empathise with this!
I got cleared to FWB this week at 6 weeks post op after quadmal fracture fix with ORIF and syndesmotic fix. 3 plates, 12 screws. 💪
Still trying to find a use case for it to differentiate it from my bible size, but here it is!
Do you guys gift your surgeon and staff anything once you can start walking? 😁
Do y’all keep your plotters protected in a case/pouch? I’m still on the hunt for perfect sized pouches to keep my plotter bible and mini (and maybe mini 5 TBD 🤪)
For anyone else searching, the plotter mini 5 fits into the Muji nylon compact pouch perfectly, as shown by this Instagram post I chanced upon (with lots of other plotter inspo too): https://www.instagram.com/reel/Clr2I2cjpJL/?igsh=bGZ2Y2VoemIyZnJl
I’m guessing sports with quick pivots are gonna be tough/risky? Especially right after we can walk again? Eg football, tennis, badminton, dance
I can only think of swimming, strength training, pilates on reformer for now.
Happy to be wrong and that we can all go back to everything we used to be able to do!
My very first Plotter! Was checking its delivery status every single day for almost two weeks. After laying my hands on it, I immediately bought another (I have a problem, I know).
After trying Hobonichi, Sterling Ink, Stalogy, Moleskine, Leuchtturm, etc, I’m liking the idea of a highly customizable system with Plotter. I will still be using the Apple ecosystem for most of my life and work planning and reflections, and intend to use the Plotter for other scribbles like language learning and brainstorming.
Really liking the matte black backplate and the overall feel on my hands. Looking forward to using it proper, as opposed to babying it now (keeping it in box, wrapped with its protective bag).
Hi! I’ve been seeing varying timelines and curious to see patterns in weight bearing and walking timelines across ages and locations.
If you can reply with your:
- age
- location
- injury
- pwb/fwb timeline
- walking without aids timeline
This is me:
- 41
- Singapore
Left ankle:
- Quadmal fracture or Trimal + Tillaux–Chaput fracture.
- PWB at 25% body weight from 1.5 weeks, 50% body weight from 4 weeks. FWB target at 6 weeks (TBD)
- walking without aids TBD
Right foot:
- 5th metatarsal fracture
- FWBAT for 6 weeks in boot
- Removed boot at 6 weeks, FWB
I’m 3 weeks post-op, ROM is somewhere around 75-80. When I try to move the ankle to the sides it’s feeling very tight. Can I already try working on the side to side movements or stick to only flexing?
