    Now THIS is something that needs to be boycott. ASAP! Think of all the productivity losses the world will suffer if we let this innovation fester until people forget how to use their left arms 😱

    You could probably invent something like this that’s not a cast, just an arm accessory holder sleeve thing. The cupholder would need to rotate for horizontal and vertical orientation probably

    Took me a long time to realize this is a cast on someone’s arm and not a strange cream cheese train model…

      That actually seems to be the photographer’s hand, judging from the heels.

      (Is that the word? Heels? The two large fatty bits on your palm #NotANativeSpeaker)

        We don’t have a common parlance word for those two bits of the palm in English. Do not say “heel” though, that is very wrong.

        The medical term in English is “thenar” and “hypothenar”, but if you had just said “based on the palm" that would have been sufficient explanation for another speaker to get it.
