      I fed the cable through a hole in the wall, not that it matters since the door doesn’t shut all the way. The building is old and the frame doesn’t match the door shape anymore.

      It was easy to feed the line because, well, the monitor is in the hole too. It’s a big hole. Honestly, it’s kind of embarrassing. A mouse infestation took out the supports and drywall around an exhaust vent/air conditioner wall-unit thing and it fell out of the wall. Plus the landlord is a slum lord.

      I can’t really do a current picture for complicated phone reasons/problems. Just imagine a monitor in this hole, instead of the portal to Narnia which I lovingly crafted in GIMP: https://i.imgur.com/BLHhUF0.gif

      The monitor is in that, mostly held in with spray foam and duct tape. My rent is $325 a month, no contract, no late fees up to 3 months. My landlord is a slumlord. IDK, I feel that might help explain things around here.
