That's pretty much what I see several times a day. Except he's got a plushy toy in his mouth. Mostly he prefers a football (American), or a squirrel. He wants to take his plushy toys outside. Some may recall how in the autumn Odin picks up black walnuts and carries them to the same place. This results in a vexed neighbor who, I expect, wonders what's with the black walnuts on a corner of the lawn.

Yeah you find these things in high class boardrooms. $$$ Now why hasn't someone made an actual ergonomic equivalent for musicians? We get bar stools if lucky. In vinyl.

Product photography always looks boring to me. And those "offices" look soulless.
My hometown is Grand Rapids, MI. It use to be called the Furniture City.

We still have Steelcase, Herman Miller, and Haworth.
Now we are now known as a Beer City.
Say cheers to the 15 best beer cities around the world
Milwaukee was called "Beer city" on CB for years. IDK about now. 'Course Miami was "Little Cuba". Prolly still is, I haven't been on CB since I retired from 18 wheeling in 2007.
Personally, I would call Milwaukee a beer city before Grand Rapids. Here is a short list of some of the major breweries from Milwaukee (past and present): Pabst, Schlitz, Blatz, Miller.

I think Grand Rapids got it's title it was because we have way too many microbreweries here.

"This does not compute."
BTW, here's a listing based on per capita distribution: Invalid Link Removed
But the area I live in would top all of those by a good bit if taken as one urban area, which admittedly is a bit of a stretch. It'd probably work out to 40+ per 50,000, not counting the one non-microbrewery (way too big to be called micro), cider and kombucha makers, distilleries, and a zillion wineries.

The Herman Miller Aeron chair was the standard in recording studios for many years. Every shot behind the console, they were there. It's comfortable to sit for long hours. Many studios have lost their bugets for such things.
Musicians get stackable chairs at places such as Abbey Road.
Behind the consoles, they get Herman Miller.

PC or Mac?
Option A: It depends on the internet browser and the computer. Try a different browser and see if it can load the images.
Option B: It could be related to ad blocking. Try turning off “disable pop-up windows” in the browser preferences.
Option C: It could be down to settings that stop certain images such as avatars from being loaded and displayed in the browser.
Option D: Try clearing your browser's talkbass caches, again in the browser’s preferences. This will requiring reentering your password to log into TB.

Nice to see a console with lots of knobs!
I recall that. Odin probably doesn’t want the squirrels to get them.
Walnuts can be harmful to him if he eats the nuts, especially if they are old and are infected with mold or virus.

What I see is Odin selects, picks up, and carries the black walnut up to about 100 meters. He puts it down in a place he selects, and does the same on the morrow. About a dozen altogether before a puzzled neighbor notices. And now that I look at this, sounds a bit like something I might do, may have done, and/or could possibly do on the future.

Wilder Penfield, proprietor. Penfield was a distinguished researcher, well known for running a neurological brain research institute. It was a rough period for patients, what they did to people in the name of research was common in that era. A time filled with lobotomy and LSD studies, and the like.

I'd rather see if I could break the mood organ like in Barbarella.
Bullet points like #3 and #4 are a bit of a wonder being in the same column.

I’d rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy.
