Two Christmases ago my neighbor ripped out a 40 year old moss bed for fake turf. Same energy as people throwing away their grandmas cast iron for Teflon.

Man, I feel that. Paid myself $150 for a "life changing" breathing app once and ended up hyperventilating into a paper bag because I missed a session. The irony is real when you're paying to relax but end up stressed about not relaxing. Best free thing I found is actually just a timer on my phone - set it for 5 minutes, stare at a wall, and call it meditation. Way less pressure than some app telling me I've "unlocked the beginner lotus tier" or whatever.

Six versions of a chair leg by hand? That's insane. I would have lost my mind by version three and thrown the whole sketchbook across the room. The fact that he didn't just give up and switch to a tablet halfway through blows my mind. I get the "friction helps you think" thing but that's some next level patience right there. Honestly I don't have the attention span for that kind of repetition on paper. I'd need at least three coffee breaks and a walk around the block just to get through two versions.

Yeah but at least yours was dramatic skyler_lane83. I just shorted out a perfectly good toaster for a 2 dollar cord. Not even a good story out of it.

Got mine a few months back and it works fine as long as you don't press too hard. Start on the lowest setting and work up so you don't irritate your skin. Rinse the head right after each use to keep the bristles clean.
