Expanse = yes, if you dig slower-paced sci-fi. I started it when it released and couldn't get into it. 6 months or so later and I couldn't stop watching it. There is a Battlestar Gallactica (reboot) weight to it that really grounds everything. Season 1 works as a decent private eye mystery set in space, so the genre blends may help those uncomfortable with sci-fi approach it with more confidence in the material. I'd suggest at least three episodes before making a judgment to pull out. Around that point was when everything just started working for me, the second time around.
Hmm, I guess it depends on how little you can use it. I was able to kinda type a week later, which helped.

I guess the main thing is just to accept the parts that out of your control and redefine productivity for the time period necessary. If you can't work, then hey, reading half a book or getting through a couple of seasons of something you've been putting off is what you CAN do, so feel good about having gotten that done. Any sense of productivity/progress should be relative to ability. And enjoy the peace of mind that comes with a pared down set of options.

I know, right? I remember your hand disaster, not comparable of course, but if you have any self-management tips while it heals, I’m all ears.

Btw, has anyone heard of ‘The Expanse’ (show) and is it worth it?

Sorry to read this! Take it easy with that wrist, eh?
Thanks . Here comes a good excuse for a few days of binge watching. I mostly type with the left, but all sorts of household activities are suddenly a Herculean effort.

Just a long, dark, bleak, mask-filled winter to look forward to now. Sorry!
