Exaggerates my double chin, makes me feel like a slob, and my neck gets sore after 20 minutes. Also, doing this too much disassociates my bed from something used just for sleeping and it's harder for me to fall asleep at night knowing I spent a significant part of the day in that position.

Master race:
Patio, switching between legs resting up on the railing and sitting cross-legged. I can go 3 hours like this.

Extremely narrow bed and neck strain while wearing turkish slippers.

I pace

I used to read in a cheap chair but it was fucking up my neck really badly. I purchased a second hand HM Aeron from Kijiji and it fixed everything.

I highly recommend purchasing a good chair.

the nearest chair—and there's a reason for that.

Imagine you're having a great conversation with the most lovely girl (or boy, if that does it for you) you've ever met. Both of you are laughing, both of you are completely into it. Do you care what you're sitting on?

Conversely, you pick up a very dull book. Maybe it's a textbook and you need to study. Now your chair is making everything impossible. It's hard, it's too low, it's too plushy, you can't sit up straight, you're sitting up too straight, there's nowhere to put your feet, you need a table or something

It's all mental. If you are enjoying the book, any chair works (as long as it has a back, anyhow). If you are not enjoying the book, no chair in the world can make it better.

So if I'm trying to read, and I start thinking about my chair, I dismiss it as a distraction. It won't help any to find a better chair, because the chair isn't the real problem.

Used to have that exact chair. Spooky.

Temporary, but what I wanted.

Someday in the future, I'll have a giant workspace, a table the size of fucking infinity, with cement floors, white walls, a wall of windows, and every wall taken by a bookshelf, or else some other media storage or tool storage. Closets full of files and office supplies. Etc. I want to have PhD knowledge and trappings without the bullshit of a degree, though I'm certain I'll end up back in school at some point to get that doctorate.

I want to be a professor. I want to be a writer. I want to be a lecturer and speaker. I want to create media.

And I want to do it all from a somewhat uncomfortable chair in a lavish-yet-spartan room.

The hardness of it keeps me focused, you know? The lightness and smallness of it make it very mobile.

I like to work in the cold, too.

Mate you know your stuff

Hammock, diagonally in front of my 27' screen. I turn the pages with a wireless game controller.

>>8663151
Is that meant to be a blonde woman standing at the head of your bed? Is she your odalisque?

>>8666353
I had to read this 5 times before remembering what a hammock was

>>8662116
literally that one

>>8666353
I also read in a hammock.

That hammock was one of the best purchases I ever made. I was sick of moving a bed around when I moved after every school year so I bought a hammock and started sleeping in that. Way easier to move around with a hammock stand when you gotta pack up and go. But it solved a back problem I was having where I would wake up extremely stiff in bed. When I slept in a hammock it went away.

>>8662217
that bed is like way too short
