Popping in to share some Levi brainrot I've been mulling over for a bit.

I noticed your idea of Levi making the Vees resentful, but I personally think the opposite is somewhat more likely, allow me to explain. Sure, Levi still has most of the market, but so do the other Sins, and they (or at least most of them) don't really have a concrete rival for their business, again, mostly *cough* Ozzie is shit at his job *cough*. Sorry...I've got a soar throat. Anyway, The fact the Vees are able to be an opposing monolith at all is enough to seriously get under Levi's slimy scales.

Speaking of his appearance, I have a rather ironic observation regarding Levi, given his nature, he's the most likely to be resentful of the other Sins' successes, he would also sometimes scheme against them. This made me think of the Divine Comedy and the treachery circle being a frozen lake. So I thought, what if Envy's ocean is distinguished by having a lot of ice in it?

Though everyone's heard his voice somewhere, Levi is generally more comfortable expressing himself through written means, this is partly due to it being easier to lie through writing, and partly because when people read a witty insult, it's easy for them to makeup the proper delivery for it in their heads.

Also relating to his work, Levi is a publishing titan and has an easy pattern for approval. 1- When someone submits a work, look for places you could insert discussion bait. 2- Tell them to add it in or you're not publishing their thing. 3- If they agree, go all out on promotion for like 3 weeks before release, if they don't follow their activities in the industry and crush them with a scathing review if they publish elsewhre.

Levi has 1-3 lairs of teeth, depending on what for he's in.

And that's it for Levi time, at least for now.

Really sorry for the late response, I’ve been pretty busy today and then I lost the original draft to my reply. I really enjoyed these ideas, so I’m going to address each point:

You raise a good point about Levi being the jealous one. Honestly, that opens the door for a really fun dynamic. While the other Sins don’t think the Vees, or any Overlord for that matter, are anything to worry about, and you’ve got Leviathan whose just seething in his custom built underwater mansion and ruminate over how a trio of dead people have managed to build up their own mini empire over a period of decades when it took him, a proper demon, centuries to get his publication business the way he likes it. Not to mention how they’ve got a hold over a good chunk of the Pride ring, while his influence is rooted in Envy (The fact that he has a pretty strong presence in the other five rings isn’t good enough). The other Sins have probably gotten on Levi’s case for obsessing over (what they see as) relatively minor stuff like this in the past, so he’s begrudgingly decided to settle on just trying to slander the Vees and their brand.

The Vees for their part see the fact that they caught the ire of a Sin as a mixed bag. On the one hand, one of Hell’s biggest names sees them as a big enough deal to try and slander them. On the other, they recognize they are in a precarious position given the possibility of Levi actually taking a more active approach to dealing with them. Of course, this doesn’t stop them from taking time to subtly aggravate him. Then of course, there is the possibility of the Vees actually being mutually jealous of Levi, if only for the fact they covet the power and status being one of the 7 Deadly Sins grants.

The idea that Envy is a massive ocean populated by frozen islands is really interesting, especially given how much it differs from all of the other locales shown in both shows, barring Andrealphus’ mansion.

Levi is definitely that relative that makes passive aggressive comments or backhanded compliments when you succeed and tells everyone when you’ve failed, and given his field of work, I do mean everyone.

You cannot convince me that Levi is not petty and selfish enough that he started complaining the second Lucifer and Lilith announced they were having a child, strictly on the grounds that it would take the public’s attention away from him.

Leviathan preferring nonverbal means of communicating is a neat idea, especially given how nicely it ties with him potentially being the “creepy one”. I mean, being in the presence of a massive sea serpent is bad, but being in the presence of one that just silently stares at you and covets what you possess is even worse. Then of course is the rare instance that he does address someone verbally, because that shows, without a shadow of a doubt, you have Leviathan’s full, undivided attention.

That abusive way of managing fits really well, but I feel he’d take it even further and pit those under him against one another, fostering a toxic work environment where all of his employees are at each other’s throats and jealously doing anything to make sure their work gets approved for publication.

I think Levi having multiple rows of teeth is really fitting given you suggested he looks like an eel, as real eels have a second set of retractable jaws and (it could just be me) how there have been some subtle hints that Envy has a subtle duality motif. But I feel that it would be neat if the concept was pushed even further and each row of teeth is actually an individual, nested mouth Levi could talk out of, both for added demonic appeal and the fact it would literally allow him to lie through his teeth.

Now, with all of that said here are some ideas I had after reading them:

I will die on the hill that Leviathan was once the smallest member of the Sins and used to be envious of the others for their greater statutes. Fast forward to the present, Levi has done a complete 180, because unlike the others, he can’t make himself smaller, only bigger than he already is. This in turn makes him envious of the more “normal” sized demons, as he’s now stuck as a big fish in a world that doesn’t always accommodate him.

While reading your Leviathan ideas, I actually had a Golden Goose idea. I imagine Mammon revealing he found love with Stella completely floored the other Sins (especially Asmodeus), as he had been married to his job for millennia. After Mam leaves the meeting the others talk between themselves about this development, which leads to Levi going on a tirade about how Mammon found love before he did (which he’s done every time one of them has taken a lover), which leads to this:

Leviathan: “What the fuck!? Mammon!? Fucking Mammon!? What does that green sack of shit have that I don’t!?” Satan: (Not even bothering to look up from his phone) “A girlfriend.” Leviathan:

Thanks for the ask, I hope you enjoy my ramblings.

Summer Memories

Sitting down as I write this; I can hear the splashes of water from children making cannonballs in the neighbor's pool and the subsequent banshee-like screams of a pack of now-drenched mothers yelling at their kids. I'm also sneezing gunk like I'm having a demon exorcised from my body (The Zelda Rubinstein way, of course).  

You may be asking yourself right now - Lincoln, what does that have anything to do with this post?  Well, my dear Watson, it means summer we are just beginning another summer! So, for the inaugural post of The Bone Goop, I'll discuss eight great summer memories!  

#1: Ice Cream Trucks

Okay, okay – Maybe I never had a traditional Ice Cream truck come down to my town – so sue me. I was raised in – said in my best George Burns Voice – God's Country—a place forgotten by all who didn't dwell there. But like an oasis in the desert, we did have one truck that came around town once a month - THE SCHWAN'S TRUCK. While serving primarily to adults looking for overpriced frozen steaks and vegetables, they did sell a minor assortment of ice cream goods. Let me tell you, orange cream push pops never tasted so good as when I bought one from the Schwan's man. He dressed in all white like Reggie from PHANTASM and would sometimes take pity on poor country kids by putting in an extra push pop for us to fight over like wild dogs.

#2: Summer Minutiae 

I'm a big fan of waxing poetically about life, so only I could think back so nostalgically about the utter boredom summer can bring as a kid. We all remember the highs that summer can bring, but there is also beauty in the lows. While I'd take riding bikes with my friends any day, many summers were spent alone, bored in my mother's backyard garden, watching fish in the pond or imagining a safari adventure through her overgrown Pampas grass.

And if one was truly bored in the summer heat, find the closest slab of concrete and a bucket of chalk and spend your day expressing the inner Ar·teest inside of you.

#3: Water Parks! 

I have a confession – I've almost drowned twice while visiting these water-themed wonderlands. I was 11 and full of youthful confidence in my swimming abilities as I stepped foot in Lexington's Pirate-themed water park during a trip with my best friend. That was until I was pinned underwater by a giant plastic riding Crocodile like I was in a Wrestling Federation match. It takes real love to enjoy something that tries to kill you.

#4: Sleepovers

As a kid, one of the best things about summer was the Sleepover with your buddies. A one-night no-holds bar contest of wills - fueled by junk food, movies, and chaos. We had it down to a science: Blanket forts, Hot Pockets on tap, Gameboy Colors holstered in our pockets ready with Pokémon (complete with link cables), and maybe most importantly the tape rentals. Setting the mood for the night was imperative, so finding the perfect movie was the priority. STAR WARS or JURASSIC PARK were the faithful standbys, but the best nights were when someone smuggled a VHS TV recording of ROBOCOP and HALLOWEEN. It was like sneaking contraband through airport security.

#5: Jackass

While the show was watched under cloak and dagger at night, my friends and I would often recreate the extraordinary stunts we saw during the day. Johnny Knoxville had a shopping cart, but we had a Big Wheel and trashcans! Hot summer days were spent building ramps up coal piles and flying off in terror. Hi, I'm Lincoln, and this is Jackass!

#6: Calling Your Bluff

Many of my formative summer years were spent at my neighbor's kitchen table playing various card games like Canasta and Poker or Scrabble. We didn't have air conditioning, so they'd make Kool-Aid pops out of plastic ice trays wrapped in plastic with toothpicks poking into each cube. These were MacGyver: The Adolescent Years.

#7: Yard Sales

Summer is Flea Market season, Baby! Truthfully, I don't make the time for Yard Sales like I used to, but rummaging through other people's trash was like second nature as a kid. So, it was even more devastating that my mom once went without me while I stayed with my grandparents.

The fogs of memory preclude me from knowing why, but I remember being extra grumpy about life while she was gone. The childhood vitriol melted instantly when she picked me up, and I saw the treasures she'd bought me – a pristine RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK VHS tape and a MONSTER IN MY POCKET figure!

#8: It's Good to Be King

Summer wasn't summer if it didn't include one trip to King's Island - the Ohio amusement park made of dreams and overworked costumed employees. At the time, every ride and character were made to resemble Hanna-Barbera properties. Having lunch with your partner is great, but having lunch with Scooby Doo AND Space Ghost? On top of riding roller coasters? That was pure magic.

The night was complete only if I bought a blue Candy Rock stick for the ride home. It was the perfect day (Ignore that everyone but me got Pinkeye on that trip.)

I hope these memories stirred up some of your own about the magic of Summer. Thanks!!

10 Stunning Pool Designs with Windows for a Luxurious Indoor-Outdoor Experience

Pool Windows: What They Are and Why You Need One

Imagine swimming in crystal-clear water while watching the outside world through a stunning glass wall. Or relaxing on your patio while admiring the tranquil underwater movements inside your pool. This isn’t a scene from a luxury resort—it's what you can experience with a pool with windows.

In recent years, pool windows have become one of the most striking trends in luxury home and pool design. But what exactly are they, and why are so many homeowners and developers opting for them? In this blog, we'll explore what pool windows are, their benefits, and why installing a pool with windows might be the best decision you make for your property.

What Are Pool Windows?

A pool window, often referred to as an underwater or acrylic viewing panel, is a transparent wall or section in a swimming pool made of strong, shatter-resistant materials like acrylic or laminated glass. Unlike traditional pool walls made of concrete or tile, pool windows provide a clear view into or out of the swimming area.

Pool windows are not just small portholes; they can span entire walls or be incorporated into multiple sides of the pool. Some designs even feature them as skylights for pools on rooftops or suspended floors. Whether built into the side of a pool or used as a design centerpiece, they transform an ordinary pool into a showpiece.

Why You Need a Pool With Windows

1. Aesthetics and Visual Appeal

Let’s face it—there’s nothing quite like the elegance of a pool with windows. These installations instantly elevate the visual appeal of your pool area. Whether you're aiming for a sleek modern look or a luxurious spa-like ambiance, pool windows deliver a "wow" factor that impresses guests and enhances the overall property value.

From inside the pool, swimmers enjoy a panoramic view of the outside surroundings. From outside, observers are treated to a captivating underwater view, often enhanced by lighting, landscaping, and movement within the pool.

2. Increased Natural Light

A pool with windows allows sunlight to flood into the swimming area, creating a brighter, more inviting space. This is especially valuable in indoor pools or basement pool installations where natural light may be limited. Not only does this create a more enjoyable atmosphere, but it also reduces the need for artificial lighting, which can save on energy costs.

3. Enhanced Safety

While the visual beauty of pool windows is undeniable, they also offer practical advantages—especially when it comes to safety. For families with children or pets, being able to see into the pool from the outside can provide an added layer of reassurance.

Parents can monitor swimmers easily through the transparent sides, reducing the chances of unnoticed accidents. Similarly, lifeguards in commercial or resort settings benefit from improved visibility, making it easier to supervise large groups of swimmers.

4. Versatile Design Options

One of the reasons pool with windows installations are growing in popularity is their versatility. Pool windows can be customized in terms of size, shape, and positioning. Some popular design ideas include:

Infinity-edge pool windows that combine the visual effect of water flowing over the edge with transparent glass walls.

Corner windows that provide multiple viewing angles and create a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor spaces.

Basement or indoor pools with wall-length windows that bring in natural light and connect isolated areas of the home.

Because they’re made of high-strength materials, pool windows can be safely installed in a variety of configurations—from in-ground pools to rooftop or elevated designs.

5. Adds Property Value

Real estate trends consistently show that unique, visually stunning features add to the market value of a home. A well-designed pool with windows doesn’t just serve as a pool; it's an architectural statement. Whether you're planning to sell in the near future or just want to make a long-term investment in your home, adding a pool window is a smart way to enhance both function and value.

Materials and Installation Considerations

Pool windows are typically made from either acrylic or laminated glass. Acrylic is favored for its strength, clarity, and flexibility—it’s 17 times stronger than glass and much lighter. Laminated glass, on the other hand, offers a sleek look and resistance to UV damage.

Professional installation is critical. Pool windows must withstand immense water pressure, temperature fluctuations, and long-term exposure to chemicals. A qualified contractor will ensure proper sealing, structural reinforcement, and drainage considerations are taken into account.

Is a Pool With Windows Right for You?

A pool with windows isn't just a luxury feature—it's a blend of beauty, practicality, and innovation. Whether you're designing a new pool or renovating an existing one, adding a window can redefine how you use and experience the space.

They are especially ideal for:

High-end residential properties

Indoor pools seeking natural light

Rooftop or elevated pools

Hotels, spas, and resorts wanting to attract premium clientele

Anyone looking to make their pool a standout architectural feature

Final Thoughts

In the world of modern pool design, few features are as transformative as the pool with windows. Combining aesthetic beauty with functional benefits, it turns an ordinary pool into a masterpiece. Whether you're captivated by the visual appeal, drawn to the practical safety benefits, or seeking to increase your property value, a pool window is a compelling choice.

So next time you envision your dream backyard oasis, don’t stop at just water and tiles. Think crystal-clear views, natural light, and unforgettable design. Think pool with windows.

How to Choose the Right Underwater Sealant in Dubai?

Choosing the right underwater sealant in Dubai requires considering durability, surface compatibility, and environmental resistance. Different sealants work for various materials like concrete, metal, or fiberglass, so selecting the right type silicone, polyurethane, or epoxy is essential. Dubai’s hot climate and exposure to saltwater or chemicals in pools demand high-quality, long-lasting sealants. Look for marine-grade options that offer strong adhesion and flexibility under submerged conditions. Reliable suppliers in Dubai provide tested and certified sealants for construction, marine, and industrial applications. Proper application techniques, including surface preparation and curing time, ensure maximum effectiveness. Investing in the right underwater sealant prevents leaks, enhances durability, and maintains structural integrity, making it a crucial choice for long-term waterproofing solutions.

Understanding the Importance of Underwater Sealants

Underwater sealant in Dubai play a crucial role in various applications, from marine repairs and swimming pools to industrial structures and pipelines. These specialized sealants are designed to maintain their integrity and adhesive properties even when applied in wet or submerged conditions. Choosing the right underwater sealant in Dubai is essential, as the region’s climate and environmental factors can impact performance. With numerous options available, selecting the best one requires careful evaluation of materials, application methods, and long-term durability.

Key Factors to Consider When Selecting an Underwater Sealant

Not all underwater sealants offer the same level of performance, and selecting the right one depends on several factors. The first consideration is the type of surface that needs sealing. Concrete, metal, fiberglass, and plastic require different formulations to ensure proper adhesion and waterproofing. It is also essential to check for flexibility and resistance to harsh chemicals, as some applications, such as swimming pools or marine vessels, may be exposed to chlorine, saltwater, or other corrosive elements. Additionally, the durability of the sealant under extreme temperatures should be considered, especially in Dubai’s hot climate.

Types of Underwater Sealants Available in Dubai

Several types of underwater sealants are available, each designed for specific applications. Silicone-based sealants are widely used for their flexibility and water resistance, making them ideal for pool repairs and minor leaks. Polyurethane sealants offer excellent adhesion to various surfaces and are known for their high durability in extreme conditions. Epoxy-based sealants provide superior bonding strength and are commonly used in heavy-duty marine and industrial applications. Hybrid sealants combine the properties of different sealant types, offering versatility and long-lasting performance.

Where to Buy the Best Underwater Sealants in Dubai?

Dubai has a wide market for construction and repair materials, and finding the right supplier for underwater sealants is crucial. Reputable suppliers offer high-quality products from well-known brands, ensuring reliable performance. Some specialized stores cater to marine and construction industries, providing expert recommendations on the best sealants for different applications. Online marketplaces and hardware stores also offer a range of sealants, allowing buyers to compare products based on price, brand reputation, and customer reviews.

Application Techniques for Underwater Sealants

Proper application of underwater sealants is key to achieving a long-lasting, watertight seal. Unlike standard sealants, these products are designed to be applied in wet conditions, requiring specific techniques for best results. The first step is surface preparation, which involves cleaning the area to remove dirt, algae, or debris. Some sealants work best on dry surfaces, while others can be directly applied underwater. Using an applicator gun or spatula ensures even distribution, while pressing the sealant firmly into cracks or gaps helps create a strong bond.

Common Mistakes to Avoid When Using Underwater Sealants

Despite their advanced formulations, underwater sealants may fail if not applied correctly. One common mistake is using the wrong type of sealant for a specific surface, leading to poor adhesion and leaks. Another issue is inadequate surface preparation, which can prevent the sealant from bonding effectively. Applying too much or too little sealant can also affect performance, as an uneven layer may not provide complete waterproofing. Rushing the curing process by exposing the sealant to excessive pressure or movement before it sets can compromise its durability.

Ensuring Long-Term Performance and Durability

Selecting the right underwater sealant is only the first step; ensuring its long-term performance is equally important. Regular inspections of the sealed area can help identify any signs of wear or deterioration. In marine applications, periodic checks are essential to prevent water ingress that could lead to further damage. If you notice cracks, peeling, or weakening of the sealant, reapply a fresh layer to maintain a watertight seal. Using high-quality products and following the correct application techniques will significantly extend the lifespan of the sealant. Investing in a durable underwater sealant may require a higher upfront cost, but it guarantees superior performance and reduces the need for frequent repairs.

Conclusion

Choosing the right underwater sealant in Dubai requires careful consideration of surface compatibility, durability, and application techniques. With the region’s high temperatures and exposure to various environmental factors, selecting a reliable sealant ensures long-term performance in marine, construction, and industrial applications. Understanding different types of sealants and where to buy high-quality products helps in making an informed decision. Proper application and avoiding common mistakes further enhance the effectiveness of the sealant, providing a strong and watertight bond. By investing in the right underwater sealant, users can achieve durable repairs and maintain structural integrity in submerged environments.

Why Concrete is Used Vastly for Construction Purposes?

You will be shocked to know that concrete is widely used for all types of construction purposes in the world. If you are also planning for a project then the use of concrete should be there to make it successful. Concrete is a versatile, durable and strong material with a wide range of benefits. If you are eager to know more about Port Lincoln concreting then this blog is for you.

The cost of producing cement concrete is quite low when compared to engineered cementitious materials used in buildings. Once more, compared to steel, polymers, and other building materials, it is widely accessible and reasonably priced worldwide. Cement, water, and aggregates are the main components of concrete. These are all inexpensive and easily accessible at local markets.

The liquid state of fresh concrete allows it to flow. Therefore, on a construction site, concrete can be poured into different formworks or shuttering configurations to create the appropriate forms and sizes. By modifying the mixture, concrete may be cast into intricate patterns and shapes. At room temperature or ambient temperature, concrete sets hardens, and becomes stronger. Cement is a low-temperature bonded inorganic substance, which explains why. As a result, concrete can be utilised regardless of the weather and, if necessary, enhanced using admixtures. However, chemicals in water can cause reinforced concrete and concrete to corrode. Whyalla concreting is more resistant to severe deterioration in water than steel and wood. This characteristic makes it perfect for submerged and underwater applications, such as linings, canals, pipelines, dams, building structures, and shoreline buildings.

Which is the best cement for house construction ?

Cement :

Cement is a powdery substance that, when mixed with water, turns into a paste. This paste hardens over time and is used to hold building materials like bricks and stones together. It's an essential material in construction for making structures strong and stable

Types of Cement :

There are more than 15 types of cement available in the market. Here we are going to explain the major varieties that are commonly used for construction. Using the right cement for foundation is essential to provide a strong and stable base, preventing future cracks and ensuring the safety of your entire building.

Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC)

OPC is one of the most common types of cement used in India. Produced by grinding limestone and other types of raw materials. This cement comes in three types of grades: OPC 33 grade, OPC 43 grade, and OPC 53 grade. It is primarily used for general construction purposes, such as building dams, bridges, roads, etc., since its main features are strength, durability and originality.

Portland Pozzolana Cement (PPC)

Portland Pozzolana Cement (PPC) is a blended cement that has three constituents: pozzolanic cement, gypsum, and clink. PPC is regarded as eco-friendly due to its low carbon monoxide emission rate. Moving to its properties, PPC makes the concrete dense and thick. Compared to OPC, it has a higher resistance to various chemical reactions within concrete.

Pipe Coatings: Innovative Solutions for Preventing Corrosion and Damage in Water and Gas Pipes

External Protective Coatings for Pipe Coatings The external surfaces of pipes transporting fluids face some of the harshest conditions, from being buried underground to being exposed to weather elements. Protective coatings provide a barrier between the pipe material and its surrounding environment to prevent corrosion and damage. Some common external pipe coating types include: - Fusion Bonded Epoxy (FBE): An epoxy powder that is electrostatically charged and sprayed onto primed pipe surfaces, then baked on. FBE forms a very tough and adhesive coating to protect from corrosion underground or underwater. - Polyolefin: Made from polypropylene or polyethylene, polyolefin coatings are heat-shrinkable and provide effective moisture and chemical barriers for buried pipes. They have excellent mechanical protection and resistance to cathodic disbondment. - Polyurethane: A two-component liquid system that cures to form a tough, flexible barrier coating. Polyurethane coatings are widely used aboveground on pipelines exposed to weathering and physical damage. They withstand thermal expansion/contraction without cracking. - Concrete Weight Coatings: Applied over other external coatings, concrete weight Pipe Coatings add extra protection as well as ballast weight for unstable soil conditions or areas prone to water movement. Internal Linings for Pipelines The inner surfaces of pipes carrying liquids or gases are also protected using various lining techniques to prevent internal corrosion and ensure flow is unobstructed. Common internal pipe lining types include: - Fusion Bonded Epoxy (FBE): As with external coating, FBE is commonly used as an internal lining for carbon steel pipes due to its corrosion resistance, adhesion and flexibility. - Polyethylene (PE): A thermoplastic applied by fusing to the pipe interior to form a non-porous impermeable layer stopping corrosion. PE linings are often used for potable water pipelines. - Polyurea and Polyurethane: Sprayed or brushed on, these form smooth durable linings that expand with the pipe on curing. They protect pipelines transporting abrasive materials from internal erosion. - Concrete: Cement-based mortar or grout is pumped into the pipe and allowed to harden, providing an alkaline environment resistant to many corrosive fluids. Coating Application and Quality Proper application and quality control are key to ensuring pipe coatings fulfill their protective function throughout the design life of pipelines. Common external application methods include spray, paint brush, powder and heat shrink wrapping depending on the coating type. Internal linings are applied by centrifugal spin casting, spray or trowel/grout techniques.
