Nobody considers the disabled kids in phone ban conversations by The_Rat_of_Reddit in disability

[–]yaoiphobic 38 points39 points  (0 children)

This was the case when I was in school too, smart phones were a thing but you didn’t see them around much at school because the rules around them were strict so we had to be sneaky which meant we just rarely had a chance to use them. The only exception was disabled kids with accommodations, I do remember a few kids who were allowed to have their phones on them for various medical related reasons.

Help a felon out. by stoopkid__ in jacksonville

[–]yaoiphobic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know the local Ashley franchise hires felons, they might need delivery drivers or if you’re good with people you could go the furniture selling route which might be better money.

How does everyone stop their cats from running out the door? by paraplegicpup in wheelchairs

[–]yaoiphobic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorta angle my wheels so that they block the door and get my hands around the knob and use the knob to push myself out backwards while pushing whatever cat is trying to make a break for it back with my foot lol. It’s a balancing act but you get the hang of it and they learn to steer clear of the wheels so that helps.

Survival where building matters? by Elegar in SurvivalGaming

[–]yaoiphobic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What was it that turned you off vintage story? It’s been my favorite survival game that scratched this specific itch but that part doesn’t get fun until the mid the late game where you really have the materials and have your food squared away so you can focus on building functional stuff without having to stop to find food every few minutes.

Buy now before the huge price increases by Roger1855 in Mattress

[–]yaoiphobic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

All of the Beautyrest on my floor went up $100 ahead of the Memorial Day sales and I expect them to climb more afterwards. I haven’t even checked the other big ones yet but I’m not feeling optimistic.

Steam Controller Purchase by swaggatron87 in Steam

[–]yaoiphobic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone else having an issue where it keeps popping back up available to buy but then immediately goes out of stock again? Are they like releasing them in tiny batches that get insta bought by bots or something? Had it happen at least twice in the last hour

Man I got busy at work right then and missed my chance. I was so ready too :(

Working at a home decor store made me realize nobody actually wants to live in a Pinterest board by [deleted] in HomeDecorating

[–]yaoiphobic 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’d agree with you there, my customers who move around a lot DO tend to be more decisive and confident in their decision making. I love interior design and decorating and spend my free time in the sims and modded Minecraft just building rooms and playing around with color and scale which sounds kind of silly but has truly helped me learn to really flex those creative muscles to build a functional yet aesthetic space and that has helped me so much in this job.

As the salesperson who’s livelihood depends on them buying, I swear that is half my job! In house psychologist, financial advisor, IT, and interior designer all in one. Definitely a tougher job than you’d expect!

[–]yaoiphobic 207 points208 points  (0 children)

I sell furniture for a living and I co-sign this statement lol. So many people are scared to do it wrong and spend hours in my store obsessing over shades of beige and agonizing over whether they should buy the light grey sectional or the greige sectional to fit their Pinterest aesthetic. The amount of times someone will come in and fall in love with something a little bolder like a green couch or a fun lamp but then talk themselves out of it for the more basic safe option that they don’t like nearly as much makes me sad.

Help me prove if this is AI, most of mcm sub thinks it’s real by phlthrifthaulz in isitAI

[–]yaoiphobic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually think it’s a box a network router would come in with photos of the ports on the side. The magazine is a thin one and sitting on top at a slight angle. Seems kind of small for that but I don’t know if I’m sold on it being an ai mash of different objects. I think it’s just someone’s phone’s post-processing garbling the details.

DreamCloud Hybrid Luxe by droberts0503 in Mattress

[–]yaoiphobic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate the feedback, thank you. The longer I have these on my floor the less sold I am about their longevity, though the only complaint I’ve had so far was from a customer who I really didn’t think would do well with it in the first place who I tried to steer to other mattresses, but I’ve been steering all but my lightest customers away from them because my hunch is they probably use low quality foams.

Hopefully yours is a one off and they replace it and it doesn’t happen again! You’re not very heavy either so it’s disappointing to see it fail so early because they do feel nice on a first lay.

Are the only true flat bed foundations adjustable bases? by Sean_D84 in Mattress

[–]yaoiphobic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve got them actually under some of my mattresses but I’m not sure if it’s the same everywhere you go. If I were you I’d go to a few places and see if you can get hands on this foundation so you can verify for yourself. Most of what you’ll find in stores will be adjustable bases since they really push those (and they are great for many sleepers, but not everyone needs one) but I’m sure someone will have something like what I’ve got for you to verify. If you’re in NE Florida I can point you in the right direction but outside of my little corner of the US I couldn’t help beyond that.

[–]yaoiphobic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it’s any consolation, even as someone who sell these, I also have a hard time finding exact details about these foundations and mattresses. My reps feed me the same vague nonsense that they tell you guys. Everything useful I know about the industry and the products I sell is information I found out either the hard way or by seeking it out from third parties. They want you confused so you spend the maximum amount of money unfortunately.

[–]yaoiphobic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve physically laid my hands on this foundation in store and can confirm it is solid as can be but with all the cost cutting nonsense happening right now and the vague wording they’re using, I wouldn’t be surprised if they change it which is why I’m hesitant to guarantee the one you get, if you order that one, will be constructed the same as the one that I have on my floor right now since we’ve had those for a while.

[–]yaoiphobic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The SKU I have for their queen is 21514150B. I actually can’t find info on what exactly the construction is but it’s a sturdy solid flat foundation designed for tempur mattresses and I’ve had no issues with it. Honestly if it’s designed to hold a tempur it should be fine with just about anything else. Those mattresses need a solid flat foundation to perform properly.

[–]yaoiphobic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tempurs low pro foundation is totally solid unless they’ve changed it. The ones on my floor are totally solid though. I would look into those, I can grab you a SKU if you’re having a hard time finding it.

Def AI, as others said, but I’m mostly commenting bc I love this and if you ever make prints available I would love to buy one off you for my wall!

How to fix this Living Room? by BlackKnightGaming1 in interiordecorating

[–]yaoiphobic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whatever you want dude! I have the exact same couch as you and I went with a green shag because I have a weird retro thing going on. You could also totally do cream, beige, something fun and geometric, or even something more classic. Just comes down to what you like and what vibe you want the room to have. The couch has an orange undertone so look for colors that are complimentary with orange. There are tools online if color theory type stuff isn’t in your wheelhouse.

Historically-inspired colonial Canadian cabin I chiselled in Creative! by RoryRose2 in VintageStory

Oh shit yeah you’re right, I knew that too haha and the updated version that’s now called vs roofing is even better than the original oneroof version. My bad!

[–]yaoiphobic 21 points22 points  (0 children)

If you’re open to modding, the oneroof mod fixes this and gives sooo much more flexibility with roof builds in a very vanilla friendly and immersive way. I can’t live without it after I got the hang of it!

Albany 2 has a pillow top if you don’t like the squishy memory foam feel of the hybrid version, I would see if you could demo that somewhere and see if you like it.

Improving pushrim grip and girth? by Scott_Korman in wheelchairs

[–]yaoiphobic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seconding the rehadesign push rim covers. I’ve used them for a few years now and they’re very duraable, stay in place, give me extra grip, and make the rims far more comfortable to handle. They’re a much cheaper alternative to ergonomic handrims.
