I recently gutted out my kitchen and took down a wall next to a dining

put 3/8" sheetrock on the ceiling in the new kitchen due to concerns
on sagging, and plus I wanted to use 12 foot boards, so 1/2" sheetrock
was the choice. I tried my best to spackle where the 2 meet ( 4 times
already) it still seems its noticeable, although each time I do it it
seems to get better. What is the best way to spackle the joints?

Is the step in a place where you could put a beam in without it
looking too unnatural? Maybe it could be something you hang pots
on.
