Gifts for my best friend who broke both of his arms? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

My bestie broke both of his arms and wrists two days ago. He's in his 20s, a gamer, has a pregnant wife and a young kid. Any ideas for gifts I can get to cheer him up? He'll have no use of his arms for 3 months.

Already got a bidet for him and hooked it up. Looking into accessible gaming controllers, but he said that the pain is so bad rn that even alternative controllers are probably a no go.

Jerk your buddy off for him since he can't do that right now

Nothing says you care like a no-homo handie.

OP never said they were a man. Maybe it's a no-hetero handie.

Let's maybe just leave that to his wife. Or his mother.

Than one day he had an accident, they had to amputate his arms -- and he was sad that day. Yes he was sad that day. He can't surf, he can't skate and he sure can't masturbate no more.
