I just pre-ordered the Grand Stand multi-functional music stand, coming out later this month (early-bird pricing starts at $110). Pretty bonkers:

1. Table, Desk/Sitting, and standing mode (20cm to 160cm height), including horizontal mode (goes flat & has clips to secure a laptop)
2. Super-simple twist & friction-lock height-adjustment system (see video below)
3. Swappable media plates (sheet music, books, tablets, laptops)

This may not seem like a big deal if you're not a music person, but I especially because have ADHD & get frustrated easily (I want to yeet most stands out the window lol), having a music stand that I can use on a desk, or sitting, or standing, that goes up & down easily, that also lets me switch between devices (iPad + laptop) & media (sheet music + books) easily, is AMAZING!

What are you gonna grow? Oregano?

 

[lxskllr]

Probably aloe. Supposed to be good for sunburn.

Just ordered 10 auto-flowering "feminized" Girl Scout Cookies seeds for $70 shipped. (these are considered "hemp" and are fully legal nationally)

Kills me to think of the literally thousands of seeds I chucked in the trash back in the day!

Today, I climbed on my full bed, right at the left front corner, searching for a lost item and CLUNK! the foot at that corner of the bed frame broke. I says to myself, "now you have a REAL problem!" I figured I could maybe jury rig something to hold up that corner of the bed but decided I should buy a new bed frame. There are casters on the corners of my current one but the feet they sit in are plastic. The rest of the frame is steel, of course. The plastic just sheared. I want my frame on casters because the bed sits in a corner of the bedroom and things fall behind and I can only get them by moving the frame. I ordered this:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00JI6TM1K/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Then I did jury rig the frame so I can sleep in my bedroom until the new frame comes. Duct tape and a couple pieces of wood taped together (to support the left front corner). The caster at the left back corner was practically broken out, I duct taped that too.

I should buy a new mattress too. Gonna get something quality. A quality mattress will outlast a crappy one 5 or 10 to one.

Hmm, so you *paid* someone to vomit in a Styrofoam takeout container?!

I'll have you know that that is carne asada, pico de gallo, cilantro, cheese, and sour cream served on a bed of flamin' hot cheetos, known locally as Cheetos Locos. TBH, it could do without the Cheetos.

Either that or its a tray of "Gourmet" dog food!

I think I'd prefer the dog food!

(The carne asada and pico sound good skip the rest for me!)

Sometimes food sounds much better from the written text than actual pictures. I thought those looked like crunchy Cheetos, but said, no, it must be something else .

I ordered it sight unseen. I didn't have a clue what would be in it until I opened the box. It's not as bad as the Toasty Locos which are similar except with Tostitos, chamoy, and gummy worms.

I am assuming you couldn't fit the gallon margarita in the frame?

This is a vigorous defense of having purchased acid reflux.

Microwave containers, from a New Zealand Brand.

Sistema: MICROWAVE

A dedicated Microwave range for hassle free cooking and reheating

www.amazon.com

They are better than Tupperware cuz you can use them safely in the microwave, also if your dishwasher has a steam setting and heated dry stage.

A pet squirrel would be kinda fun actually. Used to let them eat from my hand all the time as a kid back when I had summers off and camped a lot.

 

[snoopy7548]

Some of you guys buy weird stuff.

Even in Canada it's illegal to "purchase" relatives!
