bywent to go order a power strip and extension cord to solve something that's been mildly annoying for months. started moving stuff around in that area and while doing that realized I actually had those already (I thought I didn't have an extension cord I trusted, but it turns out I have a second one I actually do). so I guess I learned two lessons?
the gain here is I stop having the cord for my record player almost under tension at all times, and I in fact can move it around on its cabinet or move the whole cabinet if I want. Trying to pack more in to my existing living room/office space and to see if I actually need everything that's currently in it.
