Finding an authentic japanese futon seems to be pretty controversial, but the consensus Ive gotten from this sub is that Futon Tokyo is the best? Can anyone experienced in the futon lore confirm before I drop a grand on this?
Thanks :)
Looking to get my first floor sleeping setup and am a bit intimidated with all the seemingly "Scam" futon/tatami products out there. I watched this guys youtube video, seems like a good dude, and he recommended products from The Futon Shop:

Their futon and tatami are definitely on the pricier side but I am willing to invest in a quality product. Does anyone use their products and recommend? Any other companies I should consider? Thanks!
Hey all,
I had a slap repair and bicep tenodesis 7 weeks ago, been out of the sling for 3 and its feeling a lot better; my pain throughout the day is pretty minimal and my function is improving. Im still on a 2lb weight restriction until week 10, then on a 10lb restriction until week 14.
2 weeks ago, I had a job interview and they offered me a position to start this month in ~3 weeks, May 25th, right when I end my 2lb restriction. I was fully transparent about my recent surgery and weight restrictions, and they want me to start initially part time, 20 hours a week, to see how it goes. Its a mechanic job at a shop that restores vintage cars, super stoked on it but the health of my shoulder comes first 100%. They said the job pretty rarely involves heavy lifting and I can avoid it as I heal up, but I still know I'll be using my arm a fair bit, reaching, grabbing, screwing/twisting; im worried about pushing it too much to fast and damaging the repair.
Spoke with my surgeon last week and she said confidently that I should take the job and start, gonna ask my PT about it this Thursday. Anyone here had experience with manual labor following a shoulder surgery? Am I making a dumb call?
