My son is in year 4 (9 year old) sorry I don't know grades. He doesn't want to be left-handed anymore. His teacher said told he has amazing handwriting. In their class they have to work up to a handwriting pen from pencil. He has always had always now he's paranoid about smudges. He wants to wants smudge it on purpose.

For your right hand only

I confused said, "How is one even supposed to be able to drink out of that one?" before I realised that it was a right-hand mug. Not my proudest moment.

A bit of a strange design for righthanders, too. Held in your right hand, you can only see the tail. And you need to reach around to get the biscuit or whatever you keep in the little trough.

Looking for a new left handed ergonomic mouse

Hey everyone

I've been using a Logitech LIFT for quite some time now, but the clicks have been faulty for quite a while now. I rawdogged working and playing games with it, but I honestly can't take it anymore. Having to giggle it and forcing clicks if I ever push it so slightly to have the switches align perfectly and not get stuck (very common issue with it) is getting really annoying. But... The LIFT is kind of our best option right?

I tried to check the web for a while to find another one, I missed the DELUX one which I might have gone for as I've had a keypad of theirs for 10 years now... Do you have any option? I'm kind of lost right now

People call my R’s v’s all the time. It could be ADHD as well but dear lord writing A lowercase g I just never get it right

Any other lefties that had to create their own surgical / procedure tool kits?

For my science, biomedical lefties, or lefties in fields that require tools of any sort. Curious if you have your own special tools.

Side note: I learned during covid that circular saws are not lefty friendly lol I didn’t lose a limb or digit but it was for sure a dangerous experience
