This is a horrible video recording, but I have always, always loved the furniture assembly scene in Celeste & Jesse Forever.
I have switched to batch cooking an enormous batch of breakfast bowls and drinking canned prosseco and this is going much better for me.
AND...because I'm stubborn as fuck, I went back and powered through. The end result was, um, not worth it. This is usually the case; the more frustrating a piece of furniture is to assemble the more shitty it is when it's done. I'm sure there's a life analogy in there...

Itβs fine to pay attention to what Design People are saying on the Twitters, but always be suspicious of anyone talking about My Great Method or Tool or Framework that Fixed All the Things. Especially if they are benefiting financially from a specific approach or viewpoint. 3/10
