TV sound. Having bigger speakers In a bigger box produced a decent quality sound. We have a flat screen TV like most people nowadays and the sound was just ok. I’ve happened upon a home theatre amp and found on Facebook 2 speakers bigger than my child. The sound at the lowest of volumes really fills the room and my wife was genuinely shocked at the difference. My project was given tentative approval, but now she’s very happy. Getting the rest of the speakers now is a lower priority but being quite deaf it’ll be a massive help.
We were in Currys yesterday looking at new TVs and all they seem to offer is sound bars to go with them.
If I have one piece of advice it’s to get yourself down to richer sounds. They have things to help all budgets, even cheap bastards like me.

Light bulbs. I recently learnt that the longest burning light bulb was first installed in 1901.
I moved into my room 3 years ago and already changed 2 light bulbs.

Shoes
f*****g shoes
more and more cushion
don’t y’all notice that your feet hurt after wearing them all day?
i switched over to minimal shoes and have had zero foot pain at the end of the day. takes a bit to get used to, but 100% worth it and “regular” shoes hurt like hell after 30 minutes. Stop squishing your feet! The hell, balls of your feet, outside of the foot, and toes are what hold you up. Not your arch. Arch support in shoes spreads your body weight to parts of your foot that are not supposed to carry that weight all day long
