Heya /comfy/. I want to hear your discoveries and experiences on the numerous adjustments you made to your life to make it as comfy as it can be. It can even be plans for future comfiness. I want to see it all. It doesn't even matter if someone else posted about a similar experience. I want to read as much as you feel comfortable sharing. It doesn't matter how small, since even the smallest change can yield a net positive.

Sometimes, I just become too complacent in uncomfy stuff and assume it can't be helped until I see someone set an example. I have difficulty letting myself be comfy due to personal reasons and as a consequence, I do nothing.

Being comfy isn't just about doing nothing, but it's also about going out of your way to do stuff to be comfy. I'd love for this thread to be a helpful resource into achieving the comfy mindset and serve as a source of inspiration, so share away!

To start, here's a bunch of experiences that I'd like to share.

I always liked Logitech keyboards, but the keycaps they come with are pretty shoddy. The letters washed off when I cleaned them. They even peeled away and stuck to my fingers after some light use. To top it off, I'd have to fork over more money for replacements that likely would do the same. It always stressed me out. I did a little investigation and found out that there are different types of materials used for keycaps. ABS, PBT, and pudding keycaps from what I remember. 90% of keyboards these days come with ABS keycaps and Logitech was no different. Basically, ABS keycaps are the cheapest type and they're thinner, but they're decently quiet for typing. PBT keycaps usually have better ink and sometimes even letters engraved into the material, but they're thicker which means they might produce a heavier thonk sound when you type on them. Pudding keycaps are the best of PBT and ABS combined, in my opinion. The very top is PBT which makes it very durable, and the letters don't get worn off, but the sides are ABS and not inked, which still keeps the quieter typing experience of an ABS keycap. Now, most Logitech keyboards have their unique switches that the keycaps would have to be attached to, and finding keycaps for those switches is a bit tricky, but I was able to find a keyboard from them that used those common cherry switches. I ordered that one and some pudding keycaps in my favorite colors and voila, I now have a comfy keyboard that looks aesthetically pleasing, functions well, doesn't feel greasy after a day, and doesn't fall apart after some soap and water!

Regarding outfits, I decided to embrace wearing oversized sweatshirts about 2 sizes bigger than what I am. For both loungewear and when I'm out and about. Since I like to present myself as a bit dressier nowadays, I just toss a plain-colored collared dress shirt underneath it and I get the style and comfiness all at the same time. The oversized nature of each sweatshirt is perfectly comfortable enough to lounge around in on its own. I can tuck my knees under it to keep my legs warm. It's also big enough to be thrown over some actual clothes without feeling a bit tight. They add an accent color to my outfits since I wear mostly black and white, and it also generally gives me an excuse to wear some vibrant, yet soothing colors I love without it being too much. Efficiency!

And the last one for now since I'd like to avoid blogposting: Shaving is no longer something I loathe. I thought my skin was just extra sensitive to shaving, so I just lived with razor bumps, nicks, redness from irritation, etc. Turns out, I wasn't preparing myself for a shave as well as I should've been. I thought just shaving wet in the shower was enough. I picked up a much newer safety razor that was appraised for being gentle to sensitive skin, switched over to a different brand of razor blades, and started using actual shave butter instead of using my 2-in-1 shampoo as a substitute. My eyes no longer burn and turn red from the 2-in-1 and to top it off, shaving has never been faster and more therapeutic. Most importantly, it's now a comfy experience.

I do have plans to pick up one of those scented shower steamers so shaving and showering is even more comfy. I think I'll try those out sometime next month and give an update here, and maybe ramble some more about more of my experiences after I read some posts.

Keep your living space tidy and at least relatively organized. Have eberrything be easy to clean; compatibility with easy and quick maintenance is always underrated in eberrything. Put your less used stuff in boxes, mark the boxes. It's okay to clean and organize in multiple small bouts over the week. Turn on some relaxing/focusing music, or an audiobook, or a podcast. All so obvious, but it's so important that I must write it. Also, I'd recommend some non-datamining roomba, but I have never used one myself.
Get a really pleasant yet motivating desktop background, the kind you'd enthusiastically show to anyone at all. I lived with pure black backgrounds thorough my life before the lifechanger.
Once in a while, before your fall asleep, do a meditation where you relax and focus just on the senses of the body, gradually taking care of the body (rub the itch, massage the tense muscles, stretch out of joint tension). It helps to focus on not moving the gaze of the closed eyes. With training and practice, you can just do the relaxation/de-tension anywhere in any conditions even as you walk and look around. Visualizing a yarn ball unraveling itself, or any similar imagery, helps here.
Having any trouble with sleep? Take melatonin and sleep completely naked.
Don't ever be frugal over your health, hygiene, clothes, tools, equipment, devices, and do your research so that know what exactly you're paying your money for. Don't buy materials and textures that make you disturbed.
If you really like deafness-like silence, get industrial quality noise canceller earmuffs. I use 32 dBm ones at home sometimes.
Have your living space smell neutral or pleasant. If you can't tell how is it like, sniff around after a walk outside. Whatever you get used to consciously still rubs off onto your unconscious, which is berry susceptible to your environment as much as it can influence it.
Try out different teas, herbs, mixes of sorts, some are really relaxing.
Mind your posture. If you have to bend whilst sitting, try to do so at the hips, keep your back straight, spread your shoulder blades backwards.
Warm showere help with accumulated muscle tension, cold showers help with fibromyalgia and neuropathy and similar feelings of disruptive overexcitement. Mixed-switch showers help with both. I prefer to finish with a cold shower if I'm showering in the morning, and I finish with a hot shower if I know I won't be going anywhere.
Get a berry cozy mattress. It was another lifechanger for me.
Get some potted plants, and a pet if you're confident you can really handle a pet in a comfy way. I'll get a cactus or two.
Consider cutting off any unpleasant and toxic relationships altogether. Hate the people at your job? Change it, put in some effort.
In any hobbies, stop caring about doing eberrything perfectly, just roll with the mistakes. If you recognize the mistakes, then that's good enough, you don't have to always fix eberrything, just write some notes down, do some research, and you'll make less of such mistakes on your next bouts and projects.
Try out different non-fiction books on fields you have no idea about. It's just that, in my experience of random sampling, non-fiction tends to be way more chill to read than fiction, unless you have some strong opinions on the field. I'd recommend to start with books on dealing with troublesome people of different kinds where the discomfort and tension are shrimply defused, as it's the comfiest way to gain at least a part of such skills.

Hey, I really appreciate you putting the effort you put in writing your post and I've even  implemented some of these into my own routine! Thank you:)

>Learn to feel your freedom

I love this. To add onto it, sometimes I like to take walks in random directions. Whenever I'm in a place I've never been to before, I like to just explore!. I walk or drive (mostly the former) in all kinds of directions. I'll go off paths, down crevices, up bushy hills or just down cool looking alleyways. I try to focus on being in the moment and if something catches my eye, then I'll go to it and examine it! 
It's really a lot of fun, you really never know what you'll find or see, so you feel berry in the moment and berry in control of what you decide to do and what direction you decide to go. After I've had my fill, I turn back and try to retrace my steps all from memory. 
It's so funny, eberryone is always going to some predetermined space for a logical reason, which is fine, but there is such a special feeling where you're going just to go! These memories are so much more vivid than the normal day to day ones. Best part is, you can do this virtually anywhere. Explore some woods, head down some random city streets on foot, take a night walk through parts of the neighborhood you've never really paid attention to before. 

It's really something special for me, so maybe someone here w

Love it! For me it was finding low noise electronics in the house - fanless laptops or large, low-speed fans for PC cases, high quality components that don't hum (expensive amplifiers for audio)... stuff like that. I might go headphones next!

>On Yahoo! there also was a section with Flash games
I recall that but i mostly used my regional sites for that, my brother used one i never knew the name but the games were much more slicker in terms of art style, nothing like the raw nature of amateur flash stuff.
Newgrounds was something else too, somehow i knew how to get into the adult section and played a couple, Frank Adventures and the Love Hina one. Good times, later i used funny-games.biz which was quantity and no filters at all, also had an adult section which was bonkers, way too much for a teenager let alone a kid.
Funny that unrelated to this there is a discussion regarding Winamp and visualizers in the 'ring, the hivemind is real.
>RealPlayer
I used the built-in video player in my p2p downloader, Ares, which is where i got most of my vids. Used eMule later but had few peers and back then never knew how to connect to other networks to search for more users.

Are you still here? I'm curious about your story.

I strongly dislike emojis. I am so thankful that after all these years of imageboards, even halfchan users barely ever use emojis. One time, I asked a tech support group how to configure my system such that emojis wood only display in the default colorless fallback font, and I was called a maniac and laughed out of the place. The lack of emojis is part of what makes imageboards inherently more comfy, in my opinion.

I think someone should do something about the Unicode Consortium and especially Ms. Jennifer Daniel.

If I'm not reading, I'll probably watch an episode of some somber anime. Top so far have been Haibane Renmei and Girls Last Tour.

speaking of Jennifer Lawrence movies, have you seen Silver Linings? It's about a man with mental illness trying to live in the real world. Nice touching story, I think you'll like it.
I went to one of those 'retro' theaters that only play movies from like 1990-2000ish... gotta say I don't see the appeal (other than it weeds the kids out). Bretty run down, just like the last drive-in theater I went to. It only reminded me that my hair is falling out and friends and family are dying, and that my sense of style might be lagging. 
Nostalgia is good over drinks or lunch, but I don't want to be stuck in the past.

There's an old movie palace from the silent era that sometimes plays silent movies well within range of a day trip for me. I bet tickets cost a lot, but I think it wood make for a fun experience. Especially if there's an organist playing and eberrything for the full experience.
>my sense of style might be lagging.
With the way people dress nowadays, I don't know that that's such a bad thing. I have a hard time even finding clothes that fit these days.
>Nostalgia is good over drinks or lunch, but I don't want to be stuck in the past.
I think there's a healthy balance between the two. I'm not going to pretend I don't live in the 21st century, but I also try to avoid most modern culture as it doesn't connect with me at all.
