People be like "oh you get four days off a week?" Like one of them isn't just spent glued to the couch in a vegetative state watching reruns unable to add 2+2. 3x12 has upsides and downsides like anything else.

How big is this thing? Without a sense of scale in the picture I thought it was about 2 ft / 60 cm long.

Isn't that just a pair of tongs?

Is once, or maybe a couple time a week maybe a more realistic schedule? Trying to do a post evey single day seems difficult to sustain

Both in terms of energy/time required, and in terms of coming up with enough things 😅
