Empyrion has a thread dedicated to facepalm moments. Some of them are hilarious but more often they provide some practical insight/tips/wtf/etc./etc. It also provides a less embarrassing way for others to see they aren't the only ones being their own worst enemy.

I can confirm that tree cutting is a low feather count endeavor. Hanging on the coast in an open field during a rainstorm is my formula for feather joy and bow practice - even though I can't craft with them yet.
