Or a chair?
I have personally never owned a chair and at this point I'm afraid to.
I just sit on large boulders.
What is this chair technology?
Gonna have to be binoculars too
Or a curved mirror for built-in zoom!
Black hole that only bends light... interesting concept. I'd gravitate to calling this unholy.
The only remedy is attending mass more often.
I always see those events on the horizon, but I dare not go to the Holy Ghost or how that one is called.
You could also use a mirror. And then a set of binoculars, so it doesn't look so small.
Two mirrors if you don't want your screen flipped.
Have you thought about moving your TV, OP?
Heresy
OP doesn't want to toil like a peasant

You are so wise
It's time dilation. Meaning it makes stuff take longer.
Does everyone think you need to be in bed to watch TV? There's a couch there.
Couch is strictly for casting purposes only.
isn't that for sleeping?
Just lay down the other way with your feet to the head board silly. 🪿

There way is simpler
Sleep on the couch. That bed is for guests only.
Have you thought about spinning the bed by 180 degrees, OP?
