I read on my phone wherever I am. I can get an hour and a half before I even go home for the day. Then I just sit in a moon chair I have or on my bed, might switch to my computer.

Seattle. I’m trapped here, I literally cannot leave because I got into big trouble invoking the governor and a huge cache of weapons/ammo. So I’m locked on the top floor of this building for a year, forced to watch the scum of the earth scream their heads off and bums run rampant on a once-beautiful city. I have no choice but to pace all day, read, smoke, recite Greek plays to myself at 4am.

I talk to my dog more than my gf, who sleeps in the rafters of the loft. I typically don’t sleep.

I live with my mom and two dogs. I usually read on one of my beds, with my dog on the floor next to me. I like to lay on my tummy and look down at the flat book, although the pressure this puts on my elbows and shoulders is unsustainable for my entire reading session; I will usually roll from side to side, alternating as appendages fall asleep or shoulders begin to ache.

I also enjoy reading in the tub, always with the fan on. I think reading in the tub is the best way to block out the stimuli of the world and really become invested in your book. I usually will sit in the tub until the water gets cold, and most of the time for quite a while after it does as well.

OP here. I had 30 books sent into the facility I was imprisoned at, and despite being thrown around by the guards every morning and me bringing them home via walking/train riding 60 miles back home on foot with a net/mesh laundry bag crumpling all the books, they still look pristine.

Used to read for a few hours then fall asleep on a bean bag chair in the library at my college. Only thing is the library is in the middle of the campus and it's impossible to get there by car if you're not a student or faculty. You would have to park at a mcdonalds or something 30 minutes away and walk. My college is so shitty about parking because they want everyone to live in dorms on campus. Fucking jews

>Splendid edifices and apartments are for princes and kingdoms. Those who live in them feel at ease and contented, and desire nothing further.
>To my own nature this is quite repugnant. In a splendid abode, like that which I had at Carlsbad, I am at once lazy and inactive. On the contrary, a small residence, like this poor apartment in which we now are, and where a sort of disorderly order—a sort of gipsy-fashion—prevails, suits me exactly. It allows my inner nature full liberty to act, and to create from itself alone.

Just some old radio equipment.
This desk is actually a one-legged table that I built from scratch to fit perfectly between those two shelves. It's supported by the shelves on either side and has a single leg in the middle to provide strength. I had my obese friend jump up and down on this and it didn't even creak.

I use the drill to power my manual coffee grinder which makes it become automatic. I also use it for drilling, but I grind coffee every day so that's why I leave it plugged in. The crock pot is unrelated, it just sits there because my kitchen is full.

I get that your brain operates on troon reason and requires constant attention, but why cant you realise how fucking pathetic you look are for using a trip. like people wouldnt recognise your disgusting writings without it
Do you really lack recognition irl that much that you need to tripfag and derail for attention every thread just to feel a human connection?

I wear one of these posture-correcting braces, it basically forces your spine straight and your shoulders back, so you can completely relax all your muscles without curling over into a painful hunch. Trying to sit without this thing feels excruciating now. I realize that's probably bad because I'm causing all my core muscles to atrophy from disuse, but I don't care because I want to die anyway

Hey KingCo anon, I appreciate you making this thread and giving Gov ClarkKent a hard time (mainly for his support/complicity in 1639). I used to live in the boujee moated place east of you. Hope you weren't one of my students I trained on basic infantry squad movements when I was into the bigigloo scene a few years back.

But anyways, what can I do to make my office space more cozy and reminiscent of commercial air travel? Something like the vibes of pic related.
