BOLD STATEMENT, I KNOW

So China does only handles

I haven't seen a door knob in 5 years

And now I'm in a house that's cursed with them

As someone with sporadic immobility in my fingers and wrists due to arthritis

It's like the pill bottle paradox

Yes, I'd love to reach my anti-inflammatory NSAIDs but their in a SQUEEZE BOTTLE and spoilers: I can't squeeze today .-.

That said: ty Aleve for creating bottles that are "top" pressured so you just have to push down with an elbow and spin. It's less bad even on bad days

BUT THIS PLURK IS ABOUT THE ATROCIOUS DOOR KNOB.

My hands/fingers have been on and off swelling a bit. Nothing major. But it's like 100% when I wake up and sometimes teeters off in the day

Today it was worse than usual. I blame the weather

Anyways, I just wanted to whine and complain and be mad at America for being FULL OF D&D equivalent doors against arthritic individuals.

So the question is.

Do I ask my dad if we can swap all the door knobs in the house for handles

I have a feeling he will say no because it will look frivolous

And we have perfectly GOOD door knobs

And then we'll get into questioning why I don't like the nice vintage door knobs

And I don't want to have to explain or justify so

Maybe I'll just

Whine here instead

Current door tactic on bad days, two hands
