Just had this discussion/argument with my mom last week!

Tree fiddy!

Fair enough - I’d also go with ‘the data is corrupt’ so looks like I must eat my own words!

The singular of data is datum though?

Thank you for the details and suggestions. My plan is to have boxes of differing widths, and while my floor and walls are pretty flat and straight and children shouldn’t be a concern, I was considering adding restraints as it grows taller.

I didn’t consider the glue in the pine boards - that’s a good point. Thanks!

Ah gotcha. Well I’m pretty sure there are studs on the right half of the wall (the left half has space for a pocket door). I think there are two but my stud finder is not very good and I’m not sure if they’re wood or metal studs.

Your last question is a good one. I have no idea - I’m pretty new to this stuff. What is normally used to keep a wall from flexing?

I think you’re right! I just checked and the pocket door is definitely much further behind.

Now the question is - how exactly do I use these to mount the shelf? Is there some sort of hidden bracket I can buy?

Thanks for the info! Since I’m making the shelf, I can put more mount points so that should be no problem.

However - the problem with the Molly bolt things will be that the left half of the wall has space for a pocket door behind it so I’m worried that the toggle/molly bolts will get in the way of the door.

Maybe I should throw away the floating shelves idea…

Extremely fitting user name

This is definitely a hot take. I’m yet to see broadcast content that comes close to streaming content in quality.

I don’t have a cat but the internet has me believe that this is normal cat behavior - isn’t that true?

Inflation

That’s what the investing is for isn’t it?

What would be the point?

Faye Wong, perhaps?
