    way cool. unfortunately, the shape of the step-treads assumes right-footedness. i’d be dead in a week. a crumpled heap at the bottom…

    You know, I totally noticed that. They were saying how it’s so great because you can sit and read, but realistically it’s only good if you’re right foot dominant.

    That is so totally cool! I wish I had an upstairs area at home so that I could do that!
