Bed risers are the best thing ever invented, for your entire life.

Good to know! I was just thinking about needing something like this last night, and here it is!

I went to do this and the first thing it did was ask for my ID. WTF?!? I thought they told us this was somehow racist and they weren’t allowed to do it.

This is alright unless you don’t want the “then” to be “no.” “Please buy this, but if you don’t want to buy this, then...” and you’ve given them an easy way out.

I am coming up to the point where I will have to take care of my parents in this way (which moves me away from my entire life work and everyone I know), and then I don’t have children of my own, so I’ll be faced with the other issues on the other side. It’s good that we’re talking about this now, but with so many…

There is zero percent truth to this. I grew up in hot, humid summers without air conditioning, and this was in the days before it was normal for temperatures to be in the 90s and 100s every single day from May through September.
