I think I realized why I prefer hand sewing to machine sewing
It is because it is really hard to get the machine and treadle at the right height for my body to not get into ergonomic hellspace
but with a needle and thread it's way easier to prop myself up on pillows and even if I am looking down somewhat, maintain basically decent posture
and thus not have hellish pain (as long as I take hand breaks)
even though machines are "faster"
also if I'm having sensory issues that day I do not have to deal with the noise of a sewing machine
huh
