I custom ordered a recliner from them and when i found it uncomfortable they picked it up and refunded me, no questions asked.
But yeah, good furniture is expensive and that’s the only place I’ve gotten any (nothing else got returned)

Dude this is epic and just in time for my most hated relative to visit for the holidays so she has a private room and a bed to sleep on (it folds flat into a sofa bed). If there’s one thing you should know about me by now it’s that I’m an irrational cheapskate when it comes to material goods and if I don’t feel like I’m getting an enormous deal I’m just not interested.
I was already eyeing this Novogratz Brittany futon in persimmon but I found it on Facebook Marketplace in near-perfect condition for $100 which is about 1/3 of its regular price!! very satisfying buy and it’s so small and portable (you can remove the arms and legs and fold the seat and back in half) that it fit perfectly inside of my Subaru Crosstrek 🥹
I like it a lot and would recommend it at full price if you‘re in the market for something cute and cheap for an office or guest bedroom but the only caveat is that you cannot lean back on the arms which is kind of a bummer… so that’s my review.

Ok I’m gonna let my New York PI family in on maybe the best rec I’ve ever received. There’s a magical place called OHR in the west 20s that is essentially a graveyard for failed startups. They predominantly sell used, but high quality fancy office chairs.
I got a $1500 chair for $500 with a freshly installed cushion. I’d have to look up exactly what it is, but wow it’s a total dream and I feel a major difference the rare times I sit in it (combo of traveling a ton and often having too much shit on my desk to sit there).
They have strange hours and don’t always follow what’s posted on Google, so I had to make a few attempts to go. But wow I’m glad I did since I have both a fabulous chair for a fraction of the cost, and a wild New York story all in one (the people who work there are, um, characters, and it was a very funny interaction). I hope I don’t need another chair in my lifetime, but if I do wow I know where I’m going.

I have to re-oil this couch frame yearly but now I don’t have to worry about the leg randomly falling off

The occupation persists, the oppression persists, the torture persists.
The occupiers are psychotic and their work is never finished.
People who’ve paid attention won’t be surprised by this photo from Gaza.

I’m 50, I say because that makes me unusual in this context. I paid [redacted] for a ticket to the Eras Tour after listening to tswift for 3 weeks, and it was worth it. In second grade my teacher gave kids birthday spankings over her knee, and in sixth grade my teacher told my mom I hadn’t blossomed yet. I’m a good friend, mostly to people on the internet. I’m good at conversing with strangers. I’m usually the oldest person at the show but don’t feel like it. I’m good at being helpful. I’m sarcastic and funny and make myself laugh. I’m a good graphic designer and a conscientious driver. I’m a good photographer and I can successfully follow recipes. I don’t use my Peloton enough. I did a lot of caregiving for my mom for several years, and we enjoyed spending time together even if it was mostly in waiting rooms and my car. The fastest I ever ran a mile was eight minutes and six seconds. I drove the same car for 20 years and then replaced it with another one. I enjoy tipping, giving money to people on the street and Disneyland. I am a fan of baseball, Formula 1 racing and the Criterion Channel. I solve about 80% of New York Times crosswords. I take Prozac and Wellbutrin, and take Trazodone to sleep through the night. I wish I had a glassed in solarium so I could sleep in it on rainy nights. I would like to have a pet cat and a garage. I could happily live eating only cereal and fruit. I overshare on the internet and undershare elsewhere. ✌️💛
