In response to this postokay so i think i am going to use glass clamps to hold it in place and hinge clamps on the lid.
for the glass itself, i am going to want to do a non-dense white with a light color pattern on top, yes? maybe a neutral oceanside spirit over white?

In response to this postclarification on the size thing: i am debating how big the cube has to be in order to fit both a light bulb and a light bulb fitting thingie in it. i believe the smallest light I can get for this is candelabra if i want the glowing cube to connect to ifttt

In response to this postalso what's an easy way to slot 5 pieces of 6mm glass into a cube shape if you don't have stained glass tools

In response to this postokay so let's talk about the cube. i am going to make it 5 sided, with the bottom open. it will go on top of either a smart light bulb or a bunch of smart Christmas lights or a light strip. assuming i get the smallest possible smart light bulb and just sort of put the cube on top how big does it have to be

In response to this posti think my main problem is that i spent years with undertreated chronic pain + neurodivergence and it makes it really hard for me to identify causes of pain, manage pain, etc. i also am traumatized by the whole thing
@nora That really sucks. I'm sorry to hear that (and I can totally relate, as an autistic person with a lot of trouble with proprioception)
After I had a lumbar disc prolapse a few years ago, it was really hard to find an exercise regime that didn't regularly aggravate things
The thing that made the biggest difference was committing 100% to training *very* lightly but very often

In response to this postmy problem is that every time i get physical therapy it's for one specific area but my whole back and butt are fucked up and the medical system is completely unprepared for the fact that a human body is a gestalt

hey does anyone have suggestions for how to make building muscle less of a curse and a burden? context is that my back muscles are really atrophied from years of having to avoid using them because of constant debilitating pain, but i had breast reduction surgery to help. i am willing to try "supplements"
