Difference Between Garbage Removal and Junk Removal Services

When you’re decluttering, renovating, or managing waste at home or on a job site, you might wonder—is this a garbage removal job or a junk removal task? While the terms are often used interchangeably, garbage removal and junk removal are two distinct services with different purposes, methods, and benefits.

At Moose Demolition & Junk Removal, we specialize in professional junk removal across Canada. Let us break down the key differences to help you decide which service suits your needs.

1. What Is Garbage Removal?

Garbage removal is the routine service provided by your city or municipality. It usually involves the collection of:

Household waste

Food scraps

Packaging

Plastic and other disposable items

Key Features:

This service is typically scheduled weekly or bi-weekly and is handled by city-operated trucks that pick up your bins or bags from the curb.

Regular, scheduled pickup

Limited to household waste

Handled by the city

Restrictions on bulk or hazardous items

2. What Is Junk Removal?

Best for: Daily kitchen waste, bathroom trash, recyclables, and compostable materials.

Junk removal, on the other hand, is a professional service you hire to clear out bulk, non-regular, or oversized waste. At Moose Demolition & Junk Removal, we specialize in removing:

Furniture and appliances

Renovation debris

Yard waste

Electronics

Old mattresses and bulky items

Construction waste

Junk removal is usually on-demand and includes labour. Our team comes to your location, lifts, loads, and hauls everything away—often recycling or donating items that are still usable.

Key Features:

On-demand, scheduled service

Includes labour and transportation

Handles large or bulky items

Often includes eco-friendly disposal

Best for: Cleanouts, moving, renovations, estate clearing, or construction projects.

4. When to Choose Junk Removal Over Garbage Pickup

You’ll need junk removal services when:

You’re doing renovations and generating debris

You’re moving homes and need to discard large items

You’ve cleaned out a garage, basement, or attic

You’ve inherited a property that needs clearing

You’re managing a commercial or construction site

At Moose Demolition & Junk Removal, we handle everything—from dismantling and hauling to sorting and eco-friendly disposal. Whether it’s a single couch or a full demolition clean-up, we’ve got you covered.

5. Why Choose Moose Demolition & Junk Removal?

 1. Locally owned and operated in Canada

 2. Fast, reliable scheduling

 3. Full-service removal – you don’t lift a finger

 4. Affordable and transparent pricing

 5. Eco-conscious – we recycle and donate whenever possible

We understand that every project is unique, which is why we offer flexible solutions tailored to your needs.

Final Thoughts

While garbage removal handles your everyday household waste, junk removal is the smart solution when you’re dealing with larger, heavier, or one-time clutter.

If your project involves old furniture, renovation leftovers, or large-scale cleanouts, Moose Demolition & Junk Removal is here to make the process easy and hassle-free.

Another Deltarune Dream for the pile...

I've been blessed... with one of those... The DR related nightmare And, I need to talk about it before it all slips away

I call it the DELTARUNE: Continuity (small ch 3 n 4 spoilers)

So, in this nightmare… I was in Ch 2, trying to get Spamton Neo, but instead of getting the Empty Disk from the basement, you went back to the alleyway you found Spamton, you open his garbage bin home, and inside there's piles of trash

Every time you Interact you remove a garbage bag, until there's that little item white star shine, at which point you get the empty disk… But you can keep going. Removing trash. At which point, after a while, there's a yellow item star.

If you grab it… a really fucking weird sound plays, I could not remember what it sounded like, but I recall it being anxiety inducing.

If you went to your key items after grabbing that item… welcome to hell.

The entire screen goes black, and the music stops, with the only things on screen being the heart, and the items DELTA RUNE DELTA CONTINUITY. (And for some reason the first Rune and the second Delta were highlighted in yellow)

If you exited from the menu, you were now stuck in this blue rectangular platform, and the background was a navy blue with the fucking CatPettz cat animation in different size going to the left at fucking light speed.

On the platform there was also Noelle, with her scared sprite, and pink and yellow eyes. And our good boy Spamton himseeeelf. Interacting with either of them made, nothing happen.

If you went into the menu again, the UI now looked like the platform you were standing on, light blue with a light yellow border. And the key items are talked about were still there. Also, forgot to mention, but Susie and Ralsei were still following Kris up to this point.

If you got close to Noelle, and used the CONTINUITY key item. The screen went black. And a green UT Styled Battle button with the words CONTINUITY with a green soul selecting it. Bellow that, the four UT battle buttons (fight act item and mercy) appeared, all in Green. Like the CONTINUITY button was the enemy.

I choose Green. Which made the screen go black again, and text to appear which said...

"Is this the fate you want?" I selected No. And went back to the UT styled battle. I selected Item and text appeared saying "I won't use items on it" Then I just used Fight.

And IMMEDIATELY I got transported to this fucking, nightmare reality, very similar to Yummi Nikki, where Kris, and Kris alone, was standing on top of some cloud which i think was made up of collages of like, magazines and shit. Meanwhile the background was only what I could describe as, the Marty red sky from Lisa the first, but purple, and now with fucking IMAGE_FRIEND

Next to Kris was a glitchy as fuck save point. Dream me didn't interact with it. I went down, and there was Spamton again, but in a different art style, also looking like something out of Yummi Nikki

Going up, there was a Water Cooler enemy, but extremely bitcrushed, like if you took the normal Water Cooler sprite and set it to 50% on Aseprite. It saw Kris charged forward, started a battle, the theme was regular Vapor Buster.

The Acts were ActNice, ActCool, and just Act (which required Susie, which wasn't in the party. But somehow was still usable since it was white??) For some reason, Kris was at 15 HP. And also for some reason, they had a lighter blue bar under their HP??? Prob the Lisa brainrot taking over In the items there were four items

3 Guards, which the description said - Protect, use Q or E to adjust radius (????????) And 1 SPAMTONAID, which the description said - SPAMTON WILL HELP AND AID AND SOON IT'LL BE OKAY. The description also had the entire Spamton overworld sprite right next to it

I used a Guard, and a 3 yellow bubbles, which seemed to have been using sprites from stock photos, like Omega Flowey, appeared behind Kris, and like the description said, I could hold Q or E to make them bigger or smaller

The Water Cooler attacks and the attack was the same as the regular Water Cooler enemy, only this the bullets were blue. But they still dealt damage even if you weren't moving. I died. Then

Text in uppercase said: WOULD YOU LIKE TO TRY AGAIN

I hit yes, and the battle restarted with me now with ONE HP. I used another Guard, and somehow was able to survive the attack, I used BeCool on one of the three Water Coolers. Then I died the very next attack. Now the text said "THIS IS YOUR LAST GUARD. IF YOU DIE AGAIN, YOU WILL NOT BE ASKED"

I tried again, this time coming back into battle with full HP I used a guard, survived the attack….

Then I woke up. Then I started writing this.

what the fuck.

I'll maybe maybe some sprites on what some of the things look like

transforme-moi!

I finally started watching Transformers! And then I came across this request by @the-delta-42 to write a crossover but I still can’t write it, so I wrote my own outline

Here are the Autobots.

Miracle Charm

Alias: Marinette

Terrestrial mode: ambulance

Her original Autobot form is red and black, similar to Bumblebee and Ratchet in appearance. She is dubbed so because she has a variety of tools and gadgets that seem useless, but with her creative mind, are actually quite useful

Her bakery hires Tom and Sabine to run things.

Cataclysm

Alias: Adrien

Terrestrial mode: racing car

His original Autobot form is black with green highlights. Similar to Jazz in appearance. He is especially skilled in destroying stuff.

Cataclysm pretends to be a rich man’s son living alone with no one but his bodyguard (a projection)

Tikki and Plagg

Small bots like Wheelie and Brains

Plagg likes to dive into garbage to search for scrap metal to eat. He disguises himself as a cat.

Hawkmoth

Alias: Gabriel

Terrestrial mode: plane

A purple deception who looks like Starscream, and seeks to turn humans into his cyborg puppets. He sends out his akuma drones to latch onto his human victims when they are feeling vulnerable. He pretends to be a rich old man with nothing to do but tend to his garden.

Story outline: Hawkmoth is attempting to create akuma cyborgs. Optimus has assigned Miracle Charm and Cataclysm to stop him. The creation of an akuma cyborg is quite ostentatious because they go on a rampage. The Autobots must stop the cyborg without killing him or her and let Miracle Charm remove the parasitic drone.

The Transformers are able to blend in among humans because they are Pretenders like Alice, able to disguise themselves as humans, hair and teeth and skin and clothes.

Due to their partnership, people assume Marinette and Adrien are a couple despite their firm insistence they are just good friends

[obsessedwithkirby]

I wrote a pretty large rant for a friend about deltarune and I thought some other people might want to read so here dhdh:

(MAJOR deltarune chapter 2 spoilers below)

Ok so I am really into the weird theming of the game, mostly regarding kris, noelle, and spamton like, the three of them all seem to have a lot of theming/symbolism about like angels and freedom/puppets and hdhdhd yes I am just thinking heavily about all of it.

So first off before I get into anything else, there’s the legend of the ‘delta rune’ in undertale that says that an angel will come from the surface and the underground will go empty (referring to how the player will either release the monsters from their imprisonment or kill them all [in either case, the underground goes empty]) and the ‘delta rune’ itself seems like an abstract depiction of an angel. So the game deltarune is referencing the ‘delta rune’ from undertale, and in deltarune, the only human character is the player/kris, just like how frisk was the only human in undertale who was also the ‘angel’ referred to in that game’s prophecy.

So ok ok ok there is also a prophecy at the start of deltarune also referred to as a legend of the ‘delta rune’ that says that the three heroes will ‘banish the angel’s heaven’ and like, that was a Really weird inclusion to me at first but I think I actually have an idea of what that means. So kris is likely the angel in this prophecy to mirror frisk’s role in the first game, and at the end of chapter 2, it’s shown that kris is deliberately creating the fountains that create the game’s dark worlds (which are essentially just fantasy adventures that the lightner characters escape to to avoid their reality). In kris’s case, it’s implied that they’re upset from not being able to see their brother anymore so they could be doing this to have an escape and to be with the darkner ‘ralsei’ who is very reminiscent of asriel. So anyways the point I’m getting to is that the three heroes are supposed to destroy the dark fountains, and thus their respective dark worlds, which could be considered kris’s paradise or ‘the angel’s heaven’.

So ok, onto spamton now. Kris and spamton do nearly everything in chapter 2 alone, with each deciding to deliberately leave ralsei and susie outside while they interact. And when they interact, spamton relates to kris a lot in being a ‘puppet’ controlled by some outer influence. In kris’s case they are being constantly controlled by the player, while spamton appears to be controlled by gaster, judging by the phone calls he gets that are full of ‘garbage noise’ (‘garbage noise’ is also used in reference to the gaster sound effects the player hears when trying to use the cell phone in the dark world). Spamton makes a point of offering kris some sort of deal which is revealed to involve him removing his strings and obtaining his freedom with the help of kris and their human soul. Ironically, when kris goes through with the deal and tries to help spamton, he ends up literally tied to the ceiling by strings. Another comparison between the two characters then becomes apparent since spamton also gains angel wings and starts to talk about ‘reaching heaven’ and that he is ‘begging and praying to the audience’, mirroring kris’s angel symbolism. After kris fails to save him, with spamton falling limp/lifeless to the floor after his strings are cut, they seem extremely upset (kris yells when susie/ralsei ask if they are ok [and obviously kris can’t say anything else about it since they are still under the player’s control]) which is probably because kris sees their own situation reflected in spamton and is probably not too excited upon seeing spamton being killed the moment he tried to escape his strings.

Ok, so now onto noelle. This is mostly going to be in reference to the ‘Snow Grave’ ending of chapter 2, but I want to preface this actually with that I remember someone in a live stream of chapter 2 mentioning that kris/asriel and noelle/dess made respective angel toys and I don’t know where this was mentioned but it’s honestly a pretty big reason I started thinking more about this. Regardless, the two of them seem really linked together since they both grew up together and have absent older siblings. Now, about the snow grave ending: noelle is put into a similar position to kris where it seems like she is being completely controlled by the player’s actions. Kris/the player force her to kill a bunch of people to ‘become stronger’ which feels like a very similar lack of choice to what kris has been through in deltarune. Both characters are forced to do things they don’t want to do via the player’s actions. I also think it’s worth mentioning that noelle kind of has a similar angel theming to her. Like, she is based on a christian holiday and wears a white garment similar to what you would see in a christian setting, but like, more importantly she is filling in the role of the angel of death mentioned in the prophecy from undertale. She is essentially doing a smaller version of the no-mercy run from undertale, which would put her into the position of the angel described by the prophecy. (Also worth mentioning that spamton is the one that rewards her for killing everyone by giving her that armor when she is ‘strong enough’ which ties all three characters and their theming together).

I don’t know how to end this train of thought I just really wanted to talk about this hdhdhdhfhfhdhdjdjdhdjddhjddn

Homesquared Chapter 4

I cheated and some of my chapter 4 thoughts leaked into the chapter 3 post lol

Mostly about the pretty obvious Garden of Eden metaphor Dirk is for some reason setting up for himself and Rose as Adam and Eve

and I was about to say which begs the question of what the heck role Terezi is supposed to play as but then it’s very obviously as the Snake in the Garden

Terezi is very much just barely holding back some irritation towards how Dirk is treating Rose, but she’s also very intelligent and is aware of How much Dirk sees/knows and controls about their situation, so she’s probably leveraging her powers over Mind as much as possible in order to stay hidden in plain sight from Dirk’s narrative

and she does so in a way that is one of Dirk’s only blindspots - How Mind and other people have an effect in the determination of the Soul/Heart

By acting in a manner and doing things in a way that aligns with his expectations of her, he assumes and pigeonholes her into a type of character and bases his predictions of her behaviors off of that archtype, never expecting her to act outside it, and when he sees her actions and thoughts and desires all align within it, never questions that it might one day change or was different all along. Dirk’s never really been good at reading other people, can’t see without the lens of “how would I do it” blinding him to things he would never think to do, a trap that he keeps falling into with his friends and one he’s probably trying to overcome by becoming Ultimate God Person/combining all perspectives into his own and uncovering blindspots like that

But right now Mind is the darkest thing in is corner still and I think he sort of knows that as well

Terezi walks the crazy wiggled line boundary between their two Souls that defines who each of them is, as expertly as a person on a tightrope, never wavering until she reaches her destination, at which point she’ll leap off of that line and leave Dirk scrambling to try and calculate her next move/who exactly is she/what her goals are, since’s it won’t be following the clearly defined Heart boundary he’s used to drawing his plans by, so she’ll have to choose the perfect moment in order to entice Eve of the Apple of Revelation once more, heck, she might even do that so sneakily that she gets Adam to take a bite as well, since as soon as Rose bites it she’ll have an ally with her against Dirk.

For God created the Serpent originally as well, so thus why did he not imagine it’s betrayal and prevent it before it could have happened? Or else why did he create something he knew was going to betray? Eden was a paradise, so why intentionally create Evil in that paradise?

If Eve corrupted Adam and the Snake corrupted Eve, Who exactly corrupted the first Serpent? That’s something that the bible never goes into really, at least in Genesis, except to say that the Snake was punished for it’s action to forever crawl the earth eating the dust of man’s heel, punishing all snakes, as Adam and Eve’s punishment punished all humans

(Later I think the bible would try to say that the Snake was the Devil all along, but then why punish the Snake and all it’s progeny for it? If it was the Devil’s doing that undid Adam and Eve then why punish them for the Devil’s actions they would have no way of guarding against or now way of knowing it was a lie? Was it not God’s failure? The Walls of the Garden of Eden were supposed to protect his perfect creation afterall)

Gotta say though I really Rose’s design

I would call her Evil Rose, but she things she does she does in ignorance, not really out of evil, it would be like calling Eve evil for listening to the Snake when she was purposefully blinded to it’s intentions by her creation by God.

Once again we get this idea of Knowledge and Choice affecting eachother, Well I say again but really I’ve been watching RWBY a lot lately and the idea that you can’t make a real choice without real knowledge comes up a lot in it’s mythos and it is really applicable here

Terezi’s design as well is incorporating a lot more Red, she really dug those red shoes aesthetic but gave it her own twist, she’s got a red tie, her ever present red cane and glasses and even in that shot of her her horns look more red and solid as well, even though i know it’s just the lighting

So really digging the whole Terezi is the Apple/Snake in the Garden metaphor, she has also been having that tendency to just snack on random plants, intentionally for her own or Dirk’s unaware benefit or not, it’ll make it that much easier to her actions of later betrayal to be seen as “in character and therefore expected and not dangerous” instead of pre-meditated and actually dangerous, to him

And then they start waxing about their various philosophical babble, Dirk seems really determined to also use this to try and figure out that whole problem of how other’s affect the self, he’s trying at least, I think, in his own way. But not for a good reason, not so that he can have a real understanding of that, but because he wants to use it to guard his own self even further

He’s maybe not using Rose here as an equal player, but more like a wall to bounce his own ideas off of and test them, like using a neural learning AI to test ideas or an actual literal wall in a game of table tennis.

Heh, I got a chuckle out of the fact that Dirk’s answer to the Ship of Theseus problem is “why does we even have to remove and replace parts of it, why not keep the original pristine and eternal?”

because it’s funny how avoidant of the problem that answer is, man he really really is uncomfortable with the idea of changing the self in any way

“He's avoiding the question again. It's amazing how one can technically have the maximum amount of metaphysical personal awareness possible, and still not notice these sorts of things. “

SAYS LITERALLY YOU but honestly this is just more fuel to the idea that maybe he can make a genuine connection and understanding with a person if he can recognize how he and her are the same

“It's stuff like this that makes me wonder sometimes whether there's anything about myself that I'm missing. Then I throw that wonder in the garbage can and turn the incinerate setting on.”

but nah he’s still firmly denying that possibility, he’s almost actually equating his trauma of self erosion with the idea that making friends and understanding others changes the self in subtle ways as well

He can’t even stand the thought of his own close friends influencing him to be different in small subtle ways or adjusting his behavior for others because that STILL counts as a change of self that he didn’t authorize or choose. 

Also can’t help but by be reminded of my wacky little fan made Gamma session I made forever ago by them using the name Delta-Detritus and basically be like alright, what if we do SBURB again but BETTER/worse this time?? Which is essentially the thread that most Homestuck fix it fanfiction tends to go towards

Though I am curious now

We got A/Alpha for Alternia which is based of off “Alternate” introducing the trolls as an alternate race to Human Earth

B/Beta for Beforus which is based of off “Before” introducing the planet of trolls that came before the first group

And then Earth C, now, there isn’t a letter C, the third in the greek alphabet is actually Γγ Gamma, (and the fourth is  ΔδDelta)

So I wonder what “name” Earth C really has?

It feels like it should either start with C OR with GA, as Alternia starts with the AL of Alpha, Beforus starts with the BE of Beta and same with Deltritus and Delta

As as “Another for Earth” Gaia isn’t a terrible option all things considered, now you just have to make it sound like a word which describes it’s use to the narrative

It’s is a very split place, having the two timelimes Meat and Candy associated with it, as well it does feel extremely mercurial in nature, being a sort of crosswords between Homestuck and Homesquared proper, and really exists in a place between stories, an ephemeral epilogue of sorts

really a merger of Gaia and Gemini feels the most appropriate here, like Gamini, also the word mini stands out in there as well, knowing that this Planet is sort of on a lesser status compared to the other three since it’s not going to be the birthplace of a session, also has the word Game in it

But then people will wonder why it doesn’t begin with a C since it still is called Earth C so *shrug*  

Honestly C K and G sounds are all very similar in the tongue, so maybe it’s both Camini and Gamini at the same time OH FUCK CA AND GA, ONE HAS CALLIOPE ONE HAS GAMZEE? SHIT IM ONTO SOMETHING (no im not)

I like Camini now better, it comes from a place of Gamma/Gamzee/Game/Gemini but ends up being more about the twinned Ca’s that were used to, Caliborn and Calliope and fits with the establish Earth C theme

So there you go, Earth C’s actual planet name should be Camini 

which also works because: 

Camini

home stove/furnace

smelting/foundry furnace, forge

vent (underground fires)

according to the latin language this word also has multiple meanings and many Irons in the Fire, I think the fandom will appreciate the name haha

Yeah both races are definitely going to both be playing one game of SBURB, despite what Dirk is intending, the pic does make it really clear

There’s something to say how Dirk seems to be represented by Purple and Rose by Orange in this here and then how all of the cave is a backdrop of that same purple.

Look at even the controllers on the machine having purple and orange knobs, even being solely on Dirk’s side of the image

I guess Dirk intends himself to be the force behind Derse, since that’s the force that always “wins” and Rose fitting in her place as the ultimate loser (since of course Dirk will want to win his own game) but also to be like Skaia the force of Prospit

So Dirk intends to be a whisperer like a horrorterror, choosing to manifest his influence that way, while Rose will give visions to her race like Skaia?

makes sense honestly

but again even with the themes of duality, the theme of the trio is bright and center in that piece of ultimately technology, the third influence hidden unseen in the furthest corner behind the curtain of snakelike tubes and wires that Dirk will not expect to interfere, or even have the capability to interfere, Terezi

heck it’s even in the buttons next to the controls being colored red blue and green

there’s so much duality in homestick with destructive red and creative green but then there’s also always been that mercurial breathy blue as the third

God, tell me that doesn’t look like a baby proto horrorterror

I can hear it raging it’s revenge against it’s cruel human creators even as I type

No wonder they become associated with destruction, they know theyre the pawns of two heartless cruel god children playing at life like it was a game

Rose you MUST KNOW how bad this is, it’s not a theoretical discussion anymore, that things exists and is alive and has feelings and you did it to that

and that thing is technically a Dirk too

Is this how Dirk get’s his revelation? Or downfall? As his Heart is unwittingly invaded by the horrified cacophanous screams of his grotesque tortured progeny crying out for his blood?

His end unintentionally ending up as the thing he feared most? Inner self destruction caused by his own sharp and bloody splinters turned and pointed inward, tearing himself apart with the pieces of his own Soul? Caused by his own Hubris?

I will say typing that all out is pretty good

I’m just sad the same will probably happen to Rose too though ): Maybe she’ll make careful more humane species? Something that has the potential to exist and be happy as it’s own creature while Dirk just creates monstrosities forever in conflict with Rose’s race?

They’ll each be the master of their own eventually destinies I suppose but Homestuck seems to have a good track record so far of the Ultimate Female Creator being out to protect the happiness of the children that exist in her creation while the Ultimate Male God just ends up destroying everything in his

Why Shed Removal Is Important for Home Renovations and Landscaping

Removing an old or unused shed is often an essential step when tackling home renovations or revamping your outdoor space. Whether your shed is deteriorating, no longer needed, or simply in the way of a new project, professional shed removal can help clear space and improve the aesthetics and functionality of your property. At Moose Demolition & Junk Removal, we specialize in efficient and safe shed removal, making your renovation or landscaping project smoother and hassle-free. Here’s why shed removal is so important.

Creates More Usable Space

Old sheds take up valuable space that could be repurposed for something more functional. Whether you’re looking to install a garden, build a patio, or expand your lawn, removing an outdated shed opens up new possibilities for your property.

Enhances Safety and Prevents Hazards

A damaged or aging shed can become a safety risk. Rotten wood, rusted metal, and structural instability pose threats to children, pets, and anyone who enters the space. Removing a hazardous shed eliminates potential injuries and liability concerns.

Improves Property Value and Curb Appeal

A well-maintained property is more attractive to potential buyers and guests. An old, deteriorating shed can be an eyesore, bringing down your home’s overall appeal. By removing it, you create a cleaner, more inviting space that enhances your property’s value.

Prepares Your Yard for Landscaping Upgrades

Planning a backyard renovation? A shed in poor condition can limit your ability to execute your vision. Removing it allows for a fresh start, giving you the flexibility to add features like a new deck, outdoor kitchen, or green space without obstructions.

Prevents Pest Infestations

Old, abandoned sheds often attract pests like rodents, insects, and mold. These unwanted guests can spread to other parts of your property, causing damage and potential health hazards. Professional shed removal ensures that pests don’t have a place to nest and thrive.

Saves You Time and Effort

Attempting to remove a shed on your own can be a time-consuming and physically demanding task. It involves heavy lifting, dismantling, and proper disposal of materials. Hiring a professional junk removal service like Moose Demolition & Junk Removal ensures the job is done quickly, safely, and in compliance with local disposal regulations.

At Moose Demolition & Junk Removal, we provide fast, efficient, and eco-friendly shed removal services. Whether your shed is made of wood, metal, or other materials, our experienced team can handle the demolition and cleanup process seamlessly.

I for one would love 2 hear ur thoughts on the hannibal novel 👀👀 - bloodybrahms ☺

ahhh thank you BB!! <3 I’m gonna throw it under a cut bc I know people aren’t gonna want my ramblings clogging up their dash lol. 

Edit after I’ve written it: Holy shit this turned into a monster but tbf I did say I was going to rant. I think I miss writing college essays...

Also, I would like to note bc I’m about to bitch, I do still love Hannibal and Clarice and all of the franchise. Hell, I even love book Hannibal because I’m garbage and want to be special. So yeah. It’s a fond bitching. 

Okay where to fuckin begin man... This novel was a fucking Shit Show, my dudes. It was like baby’s first fanfiction. 

Let’s just jump in, shall we? 

So by now, having read both Red Dragon and Silence of the Lambs, I know Harris injects of lot of sexual shit into his novels, fine whatever, but the amount of pedophilia is insane. Like, Red Dragon with the grandmother threatening to cut his dick off by holding it in between scissors????? And then we have Mason Verger, worst human on the planet. Like jfc I’ll go into him specifically more later but just. Men. Why does it always have to be sexual. 

Like that time Clarice wasn’t wearing a bra and she wanted to prove to Paul Krendler she wasn’t wearing a wire so she flashed him her tits?? Unnecessary, Harris. Bullshit on all counts. 

Next, poor Ardelia Mapp. So he clearly wrote out her accent in Silence, which frankly reads racist since to me it seemed like he did it every time a character of color was met but he didn’t for Clarice’s Southern accent except for this book when she was talking to Ardelia. Now, that’d be a cool way to show how close they are, sure, but it just... She didn’t show up enough to warrant that reaction from me, plus all the other casually racist shit he throws in. 

Ardelia’s literally there as the wise Black best friend to help Clarice along. She doesn’t feel like her own character, she’s only there in conjunction with her, or doing something for her. She was the fucking valedictorian for Christ fucking sake, she also works at the Bureau but if her department was mentioned it was only once in passing. She was not a full character which fucking blows because she could’ve been so cool. 

And real quick before I forget, I hate how she’s treated in the end. I do like she gets a reference and that brainwashed Clarice sent her an emerald ring and a note saying she was okay, but Ardelia was abandoned by her best friend (that she had lived with) with not even a phone call and they will never see each other again and I think Ardelia knows it. It sucks and I’m heartbroken for this woman. 

I’m gonna touch a little bit on the racism too. Now I’m white and not the most qualified to talk about this shit, but I do wanna mention it because it makes me mad. There’s just so many unnecessary slurs, any POC is more of a background helper character to Clarice than anything or a foil. 

For example, Evelda Drumgo. She starts us off. Badass Black woman who runs a drug cartel. She chooses to shoot at Clarice and risk her baby’s life, and we have Clarice wash the baby off and save his life. Then Evelda’s mother is written as irrational when she slaps Clarice for visiting the baby in the hospital; I get Clarice’s impulse, but that woman just lost her daughter because Clarice killed her. I would’ve slapped Clarice too, even if it was a totally justifiable shot. 

The baby himself is used as a foil throughout other parts, most notably to me when Clarice goes to visit Mason the first time. There are two Black boys from a foster home playing in a room with a camera so Mason can watch them, and it shakes Clarice up a lil bit because of the baby, but it says she’s getting more used to it.

Now this is half and half well written and shoddy to me. It’d be a cool moment, if the whole incident wasn’t nearly completely forgotten for the rest of the book shortly afterword. It could show growth, if Clarice had any growth to show. 

And then the Romani people who are literally just used and thrown away. Sickening. Also very broadly used the stereotypes we hear which Sucks; the three we meet in any sort of depth are pickpockets, one was already in jail and Pazzi used his leverage as a police officer to get her to do what he wanted and threatened to have her baby taken away from her permanently, like it was just bad. And then the man got killed. Pazzi let him bleed out. Asshole. 

The slurs. I could take out all of them and pretty much have the same damn thing. Like I get showing negative aspects of characters and just because a character’s racist doesn’t mean the author is, but with the characters already being as shitty as they are, fully didn’t need it to make them worse. Entirely unnecessary. Racism or the character being racist has no impact on the plot is the major thing, I think. And you can replace that with anything along those lines, like sexist, homophobic, transphobic. It didn’t impact the plot, they can still be shitty, you just don’t need to use them. 

This also goes in reference to Margot being a lesbian. And the transphobia holy shit, it was disgusting. Harris had Clarice think something so cruel and unnecessary it’s like my guy why was that even remotely something we needed to hear. We didn’t. I wanted to stop reading because that’s not my Clarice, first and foremost, and second, this is supposed to be the character we LIKE. And now I don’t like ANYBODY in this damn book. 

And he treats Margot like shit too, and Barney. 

Their friendship was beautiful and great and finally for once something nice was happening in Margot’s life and I was happy reading it, and then FOR SOME REASON Margot goes to shower in the same room as Barney after a workout, which makes no sense, and then Barney tries to force a kiss on her (and he was hard, Harris made that very clear) and she had been sexually assaulted by Mason her brother and ruin the whole damn thing and none of it would have changed any other piece of the novel if you removed it!!!!!!!!! Entirely unnecessary!!!!!! And Barney had the gall to say well I couldn’t help myself like none of that was realistic in the slightest, she never would have went in the same room to shower with him. 

Something you need to do is basically get some suspension of disbelief from your reader and maintain and stretch that as you go, right? Well mine was gone at that moment.

Also side note Margot is basically just there to show how shitty Mason is for the umpteenth time. Her whole thing is lesbian sexual assault victim.

Also heavily implied she was a lesbian because of the sexual assault. And we rarely see Judy, her girlfriend, so. Bad. Bad all around. 

Circling back around to Clarice and how disappointing she is in the books as compared to the movies. Well, Clarice is also a poorly written character. She’s 1000x better in the movie. Hell, she’s even better in this book than she was in Silence, but that’s not fucking hard. 

Pretty much all the characters are so flat they don’t even classify as two dimensional. 

Like sure, maybe we wanna say Clarice didn’t really solve much in the first book and was just handed everything because she was a trainee and that’s what Hannibal wanted. 

Like if you remember the John Mulaney sketch of Delta Airlines where he’s just going “Okay!” and running to the next place he’s told, that’s Clarice. 

Okay so why does she get goaded into all this shit now? She should know better. She should know how to handle herself better. Like she messes up basic fucking shit like clearing a room before untying Hannibal, which was stupid, she seems oblivious to some of the politics at work even though she’s been in the FBI for like 7 years now, she would at least have more fucking contacts than Brigham who died in the beginning and Jack Crawford who died at the end by rolling over in his bed to his dead wife’s side and Ardelia who would be near the same level as Clarice I guess but I still don’t know her damn department???? Like you fucking network. 

Plus after her final fall from grace with the FBI, we meet or are told of random side characters that go no where and do nothing just to say “hey look at my special little girl, everyone likes her and looks up to her!!” Why? Because she caught Buffalo Bill 7 years ago and then never got a promotion or even worked with the BAU? Again, it does not make sense. People may pity her? But a random girl in the lab wouldn’t be fangirling. Starling herself said her career had gone nowhere because of the politics and not sleeping with Paul. You need to show me why she’s likable in her actions not others words. 

We spend more time away from her than with her anyways but Jesus. 

AND HER IN THE ENDING. She was fucking BRAINWASHED????? Bull FUCKING SHIT. He completely ruined anything he even remotely might’ve had in this cluster fuck of a novel. 

Case in point, difference from the movie, Hannibal spends weeks (possibly? it’s left purposefully vague and I’m guessing that’s because Harris didn’t know the ins and outs and wanted his novel done) meticulously brainwashing Clarice, he had stolen her father’s bones and she’s so far gone at that point she doesn’t care, and the whole scene where Paul is getting his brain eaten? Yeah, she happily indulges and when he insults her, she asks Hannibal for more. Fuck you, Thomas Harris. 

And Hannibal’s a Gary Stu, fucking fight me. 

In the movie he either is or he’s tap dancing on that line, don’t get me wrong, but in the novels it’s insufferable because it doesn’t seem earned. The pigs didn’t attack him because they didn’t smell fear on him. No. He’s easily able to drug and brainwash Clarice and take her as his lover. No. Go away. He’s so smart and one step ahead and can manipulate anyone and everyone into doing what he wants and blah blah blah shut up! A character being perfect isn’t interesting even if he’s evil!! We all know he’s never truly in danger because of how Harris writes him and that’s boring!! 

And I personally have a pet peeve where the villain is described as a monster or unstoppable. That’s boring and I no longer care about your story. I know 9 times out of 10 your main character is going to find a bullshit way around the impossible and kill it. Or it’s just like a default personality and nothing else is added to it. And that’s Hannibal. 

I’m on Hannibal Rising now and, spoiler alert, he’s very bland as a character. (Also Harris switched some details in the novel which kinda annoys me like get your own canon right my man but whatever.) The plot itself is pretty fun? I guess? Like there’s action and stuff and I’m enjoying that. But it’s the same set up where Harris’s Gary Stu always wins, like he was 13 in the book when he killed the butcher. Let. Your. Characters. Lose. 

Also even more racist shit but what did I expect really. 

Anyways, I have no idea who I’m supposed to root for in the novel because all the characters are just kinda shitty. It really just boils down to Harris not showing any redeeming qualities or actions from any of his characters. I liked Margot for a while out of spite but she never really went anywhere and the way she killed Mason (btw she sodomized him with a cattle prod to get his semen bc side plot and then stuffed his Moray eel down his throat and somehow I still don’t think that’s the worst part of the novel) just. No thanks really. 

All the random little side plots were also pretty not great. How many time does Harris have to say Pazzi of the Pazzis? Like I fucking get what you’re going for, even if I hadn’t watched the movie I’d be like, “Oh this dude’s gonna get hung outta that window, dope,” the literal first time. Stop treating your readers like idiots. 

And then Margot’s side plot was that the will their father left said she needed a biological heir to inherit because he was pissed she’s gay and we needed the homophobia I guess, so Mason got everything, and she was helping him with the Hannibal shit because he’s pretty incapacitated duh, and in return he would give her his jizz so Judy could be artificially inseminated and they could have a child and get some of her inheritance. I don’t care. It was all very gross, and Mason kept saying shit like suck me off you’ve done it before, I won’t be able to feel it anyway, maybe Judy’ll suck me off you think she’d like that. It’s all gross. 

And I guess this is a good a time as any to finally start on Mason. So a great rule of writing to make everything work better and give your story more depth is to give everyone both positive and negative traits right, even and especially the bad guys? Like, rules can always be broken if you’re a good enough writer, but I believe I have established that Harris isn’t quite there yet, to put it nicer than I have. 

Mason is one bad trait after another. It’s like when Harris was bored of constantly writing about plain ole pedophilia, he threw a dart at a board of horrible things and landed on topics such as: pedophilia but make it incest, extreme sadism, sadism but against children now, and good old fashioned racism! Fucking Cordell was supposed to collect the children’s tears after Mason would make them cry and put them in martinis for him. Realism went out the goddamn door real fast with this novel y’all. Like a fucking Scooby Doo villain over here. 

And he loves talking about being a sadistic pedophile, he will literally not shut up about it to Clarice when she first gets there telling her about his trip to Africa and this portable guillotine he has and just. I get it was probably like trying to make her uncomfortable on purpose because he’s a Freak, but it went way too far if only because it was annoying, not even uncomfortable for me as a reader. I was bored real quick. Get to the shit I actually wanna know. 

And it sucks because of the weird, over-the-top way of how he died, I got zero satisfaction from his death. I couldn’t even be like, “Well at least Margot got her revenge,” because that’s not how she originally wanted to kill him!!! She wanted someone else to extract his semen for the insemination but couldn’t find anybody to do it for her, and then Hannibal, whilst tied up, said use a cattle prod and you won’t have to touch him and when you kill him you can blame it on me, and I’m pretty sure even if she hit his prostate right every time and he COULD cum from that alone in addition to how his body is Fucked Up now, it would’ve been a lengthy, gross, and re-traumatizing experience for her because all she wanted to do was avoid seeing and touching her brother’s private parts again, which I think is a totally fair and rational desire. 

So I have to live with the fact that she was desperate enough to not lose the house and business because of her homophobic father to go through her childhood trauma again. There’s no place in this book that has a somewhat positive conclusion. 

Even the very last bit where Barney has a girlfriend and a ton of cash from Margot, all he wants to do is see every Vermeer in the world right? Well, because Hannibal and Clarice are in Buenos Aires where one of them is on display, Barney gets spooked and has him and his girlfriend leave before he can see it and it ends that bit with he never got to see it ever so he didn’t even complete his dream!!! 

Also for good measure, Harris throws in that Hannibal and Clarice enjoy having sex regularly. For no reason. Just letting us know. 

I know this seemed like just a bitch fest, because it was, but I kinda sorta enjoyed it? It kept my attention at the very least. It’s really disappointing because like I said, I love the movies, all of them, and have since I was little. To see the original not stand up to that image in my mind is a little heartbreaking. Especially Clarice. She was a strong female role model to me, but turns out she’s... just kinda there. And her ending is that of her no longer being herself and getting that agency taken away from her. 

There is a reference to her waking up from a sleep, if she is asleep (that’s kind of how he worded it), that kinda let us draw our conclusions on whether she was just brainwashed into being good for him or if she was willingly going along with this and was in love with him I guess and it felt like a slap in the face. She turned from a hardworking, modest country girl working her way up to the FBI into a female Hannibal. Which on the surface sounds kinda cool because we love luxe serial killers, but that’s not what she wanted or who she was set up to be. And to insinuate that she would even remotely consider choosing that path for herself is at its best an insult to her and at its worst a complete erasure of her background, what little character Harris did set up. It also completely erases my own connections to her, as a girl from a small town myself who has bigger dreams than this and also... a good, strong set of morals. He just tossed that out the window. 

Obviously if you’re on this blog, you like slasher x reader shit, and this is a novel with a slasher x a person, right? So why am I so mad about it? Because the whole point of this blog and reader insert fanfiction in general is that you are taken as you are and loved wholly as yourself and that you are worthy of that love (in a fictional setting, not really loving people who are like this, which I think we understand but I want to clarify). She was not taken as she was. He is not in love with her, she is not in love with him. She was transformed into what he wanted out of her. He couldn’t get her to be Mischa, his first plan, so he made her like himself. And the fact that he was so easily able to do it makes me upset, and even more so is that it’s not written like it’s weird or wrong. It’s written like they’re in love and this is a good thing. 

He may have been going for the classic “everyone is capable of doing bad things” stuff we see a lot, but we got that from Margot already. And Barney, for stealing Lecter’s stuff and selling it. And Paul, and the entire FBI for turning on Clarice, and the kidnappers, and Pazzi, and random shitty side characters. And none of it was particularly well written or made some sort of strong statement. It just was. And that’s not a good enough basis for a novel. 

Anyways, if you made it this far holy shit you’re a saint and I love you, let’s be friends?? <3 Have a good day y’all, thank you BB for giving me permission to ramble.

High Tech Plumbing In Your SOHO, Making Your Life Better

With all the advances in technology it sometimes seems that the plumbing industry has fallen way behind. You walk into a bathroom and you see a standard faucet with a lever or a set of handles in most bathrooms. The only place we seem to notice a difference is in some commercial bathrooms where there are automatically flushing toilets and faucets that operate when you put your hands under the spout. Yet, there are many advanced faucets and fixtures available of which the public is mostly unaware. We will start with one example from a company by the name of Toto. Now, I'm not trying to sell you on their products in particular; they are one company that has taken technology into the bathroom and the kitchen. It's a good place to start. When you walk into the bathroom at night the light on the Neorest toilet blinks on. As you approach the toilet, the toilet seat automatically opens for you. After you are finished the toilet washes and dries you. When you get up and walk away the toilet seat automatically closes. If you're like me, you'll still feel like you have a reason to wash your hands even though there is no good reason to do so. When you place your hands under the spout of the Neorest II faucet the LED surrounding the drain lights up just before the water starts to flow. You don't need to think about setting the temperature of the water because it is perfectly set to your preferences. Now you decide you want to take a bath. You head over to the Neorest Air Bath and the water comes out automatically at your usual desired temperature and rises to the level that you prefer. Doesn't that sound wonderful? One technologically advanced system that is sadly no longer available is the Kohler Habitat environmental enclosure. It was certainly ahead of its time. When you entered into this habitat you could program wind, heat, steam, sauna or rain with the simple touch of the control panel. Sound futuristic? It was. The suite of products from Toto is not something out of science fiction. These fittings and fixtures are available today. Toto is not the only company making groundbreaking technological advances in plumbing. Let's take a look at some of the other companies advancing home plumbing designs. Delta faucet has products called Touch2o TM. These faucets allow you to turn them on and off by simply touching the faucet anywhere. This reduces the potential for cross contamination. I don't know about you but I'm not fond of constantly having to turn the faucet handle on and off while working in the kitchen. One wonders why it took so long for someone to come up with this simple solution. Although other companies do not have this touch-the-body design they do have hands-free sensor operated faucets. Some of these companies include: Moen, Sloan, Kohler, American Standard, Hansgrohe, and Symmons. In general, electronically operated faucets are more stylish than their counterparts which are manually operated. Grohe's Ondus line of digitally controlled bathroom faucets have programmable features including temperature, volume of flow, and duration. Of course, they can also sense your approach and turn on; they turn themselves off when you remove your hands. AO Smith's Voltrex Hybrid Electric Heat Pump Water heater actually absorbs environmental heat and transfers it to the water; at the same time it also cools and dehumidifies the air around it. It uses a liquid crystal display to make it easy for you to choose what mode you would like it to be working in: high efficiency, hybrid, electric, and vacation. There have been changes to gas water heaters as well. Gas water heaters no longer run a pilot flame all day long. They have a pilotless ignition system. Some water heaters, such as the AO Smith high efficiency flue damper heater, meet the .67 energy efficiency rating required to be listed as ENERGY STAR. On these heaters a special flap closes when the heater shuts off and heat is trapped within the flue which makes these heaters more efficient. The day is coming when faucets and fixtures will have embedded chips that will be able to tell you when they need service. Computerized appliances such as refrigerators, washing machines, and dryers exists today that do this and more. When that day comes for home plumbing you will be notified if you have a slab leak, if your garbage disposal is wearing out, if your water heater is starting to fail, and if your faucet needs repairs. The day when you can go to your computer, your iPad, or your iPhone and check out your plumbing system to see if everything is functioning normally is not far off into the future.

You've got me curious now as to what anime youve seen, enjoyed and why.

Oof, I don’t track that type of thing. I’ve been asked about anime I like previously, and I feel like I always forget something. I suppose I should start a MyAnimeList one of these days, just for reference.

So let’s list everything I can remember, as well as a pithy reaction.

Baccano!This one is just so much fun. It’s violent and crass in a classy way, it’s funny in a weird way, and it’s a great example of a non-linear narrative. I love it.

Code Geass (Season 1)Ugh, I only watched this one because people solicited my opinion on it. Well, my opinion is that it’s not as smart as it wants to be, there’s too much contrived melodrama (and considering the wild premise, that’s saying something), and Kallen would be a wonderful and interesting character if she wasn’t always being demeaned for fan-service. I quit when the first season finale kicked off, because I felt things were just getting too contrived. I hear it really fell apart in the second season.

Cowboy BebopI found this a bit pretentious. It had good episodes and bad episodes. The production quality is good. But I'm not sure why it's legendary. Still, I liked its sense of humor, and enjoyed it when it wasn’t trying to be super serious. My favorite character is Ed.

Demon SlayerI'm mainly watching this because my brother wanted to give it a try on Toonami, but I kind of checked out when it unceremoniously removed everything difficult about the sister being a demon and made her into an order-following sidekick that fits in a suitcase. Now the latest episode introduced a loud annoying side character, so we may quit. I have no idea why this one is so popular.

Fullmetal AlchemistCovered

Gatchaman CrowdsI was asked to watch this one, as well, but it went a lot better than Code Geass. It’s a bit weird, and I think it's naively optimistic about the internet in many ways, but I still found it's exploration of Internet-age superheroes to be interesting, and it's the best, most mature take on the Power Rangers-style ‘sentai’ genre that I've seen. I don't know how well it matches up with its Gatchaman legacy, but as its own thing, it's pretty good.

Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex (including 2nd Gig)This is another legendary one that I think is good but a bit over-rated. It's a good piece of modern Cyberpunk, but it's very talky, and very jargon-filled. I'm almost convinced that the viewer is not meant to follow half of the conversations, that they're just part of the ambiance. I tended to like the stand-alone episodes better than the storyline episodes. Still, it’s a very smart series, and probably the best thing in the franchise, from what I’ve heard.

Log Horizon (first season only)I’ll tell you what- I think it’s possible to make a good anime with the premise of people from the modern, real world entering a fantasy realm (either another dimension or a VR video game). Log Horizon did not end up being that ideal. The main character is a Gary Stu, his romances with girls who are either ten years old or just look like they’re ten years old are creepy, and it got boring seeing the protagonists’ plans always succeed without much of a hitch.

Lupin III (series 4 and 5)I like this franchise when it's being clever, when it's springing a twist while playing fair. Sometimes, though, it doesn't play fair with its twists, leaving me underwhelmed. And while the regular cast is amusing, they're fairly shallow characters; this isn't always a bad thing, as that allows them to slot into all kinds of genre fare, but does limit the storytelling ambitions. It’s fine.

Macross franchiseSuper Dimensional Fortress MacrossI still like the original, despite how dated it is. It's probably the best possible implementation of 'soap opera in space.'

Macross PlusI'm not sure why this one is so revered. I feel like it doesn't play fair with its mystery, despite being such a short story, and whole thing with the killer popstar AI just left me cold.

Macross 7I like the music, but the story really drags for the first half with a formula that’s repeated far too long, and then falls apart in the end. The love triangle isn’t resolved, and in fact I’m of the opinion that two of the participants didn’t even know they were in competition. The bad guys are allowed to sail off into the sunset, forgiven, despite still inhabiting the bodies of kidnapped humans. But this isn't a series you watch for the story; this is a series you watch because you like the idea of a rockstar flying into space in a transforming mecha, controlled by an electric guitar, to sing at alien invaders. Personally, I think the idea is dumb. Plus, this ruins the premise of the original series by adding in what is effectively magic.

Macross ZeroThis is pretty good and has the best dogfights in the series, but it has one of those weird arty endings that anime sometimes likes to do where no one can tell what actually happened and we need to find translated interviews with the creative team to get it explained.

Macross FrontierBy this point, I was wondering why everyone is so eager for the Macross franchise to get American distribution. It’s better than Macross 7, but feels like a first draft of the intended story, and the creative team lost track of their own subplots. The two AU movies do a more satisfying take on the same basic story, but sometimes they come across like an abridged recap of the series, so you really need to watch everything to get a satisfying experience. That said, the final experience was indeed fairly satisfying, making this the second best thing in the franchise for me. Still, I wouldn’t say it lives up to the original in any way.

Macross DeltaBoy, this one was dumb. Everything wrong with Frontier is worse here, with none of the good stuff.

The Melancholy of Haruhi SuzumiyaI still want an ending for this, despite nothing worthwhile coming from it since 2011. It wouldn't even be hard to pick it up again; set it in modern times, and explain the fact that everyone has smartphones now to be a result of some weird off-screen Haruhi antics.

Mobile Suit Gundam franchiseMobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded OrphansI've only ever experienced the Gundam franchise because my brother wants to get into it and he keeps trying to find a vector. This was my first experience with it, and I found it very 'teenage boy,' in both tone and story. I was underwhelmed.

Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn RE:0096Another case where the storytellers reached the end only to have forgotten the rest of the story. Why does that happen so often in anime? And I think it assumes the viewer is familiar with the whole rest of the franchise, because there was a lot that just went straight over my head but didn't seem like it was supposed to. Nice animation and art style, though.

Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin - Advent of the Red CometEverything I said about Unicorn, only more.

My Hero AcademiaCovered

NichijouThis thing is still hilarious, even after a rewatch. Stick with the sub, as the new dub's voice-acting doesn't have the same range and power of the original, losing a lot of the humor.

Outlaw Star I'm struggling to remember a lot of this one. it’s another I watched because my brother was interested in it. I do recall that it was a fairly standard Space Western that ends in a way that's more like serious science fiction, and that for some reason a Japanese swordswoman in classic clothing was part of the cast. Now I wonder if that was an homage to Lupin III. Or maybe Japan just really loves throwing classic samurai into everything, regardless of setting or genre.

Pokemon (part of first series)I was in high school when this franchise first came to America, and for some reason all the geeks in my high school thought it was the greatest thing. The games were good, yeah, but the anime? I don't think it's bad for a kiddie cartoon, but it obviously has no greater ambitions than pleasantly occupying the kids for 22 minutes. Personally, what I really want is a series about Team Rocket done in the style of Cowboy Bebop.

Princess TutuCo-owner of the Best Magical Girl designation. I forget who asked me to watch this, but I owe them.

Puella Magi Madoka MagicaCo-owner of the Best Magical Girl designation. I still haven't bothered with anything but the original series, and I continue to be happy with that choice.

Samurai ChamplooI liked this better than Cowboy Bebop, but only because its ambitions were lower. It leaned more into its genre, had fun with its style more even when being serious, and as a result became more enjoyable. I overall liked going on a journey with these rascals, but I think it ended at a good point. I don’t need more.

Spice & Wolf (first season)I watched this on someone's suggestion, and found it a little underwhelming. What I really appreciated were the two main characters, especially that they seem to be into each other, romantically and sexually, and aren't freaked out by it while at the same time not being in a hurry to become a couple. It was just a kind of, "Yeah, this could really be something if we ever find the time." It was so amazingly mature and real. Too bad the main Economics plotlines just wound up being tepid.

Tekkaman BladeMy thoughts haven't changed on this.

Tiger & BunnyI'm still fond of this one, and I'm actually kind of curious to revisit it in light of My Hero Academia.

Transformers ‘Unicron Trilogy’These three cartoons are true anime, produced by and for Japan. (The other cartoons in the franchise were written, and sometimes animated, in the west.) It's garbage that assumes its child audience are morons, and on top of that the first two series wound up with laughably bad dubs. How this trilogy revitalized the franchise, I have no idea, and thankfully I'll never have to worry about it.

Volton (original)Either this or Robotech/Macross was my first anime; I was too young to say which I discovered first. I'll admit that the original Voltron isn't good, despite the toy being neat, but I have a soft spot for it. I tried the Netflix reboot, watching the first three episodes, and found it to be vacuous junk. Maybe some day a version of this will come along that will do justice to the toy.

And I think that’s it. If I remember anything I left off, I’ll reblog with the addition.

[junkremovalservicesbc]

When it comes to clearing out unwanted items from your home, office, or construction site, you may be wondering whether renting a dumpster or hiring a junk removal service is the better option. Each method has its advantages, and the best choice depends on your specific needs, budget, and timeline. At Moose Demolition & Junk Removal, we help clients determine the most efficient and cost-effective waste removal solution. Here’s a breakdown of both options to help you decide.

Dumpster Rental: Pros and Cons

Pros:

Flexibility – With a dumpster rental, you can take your time loading items at your own pace. This is ideal for long-term projects such as renovations or large-scale cleanouts.

Cost-Effective for Large Jobs – If you have a significant amount of debris, renting a dumpster can be more economical than multiple junk removal pickups.

Great for Ongoing Projects – A dumpster on-site allows you to continuously dispose of debris over days or weeks as work progresses.

Cons:

Labor-Intensive – You have to do all the heavy lifting yourself, which can be physically demanding and time-consuming.

Space Requirements – A dumpster requires adequate space for placement, which may not be feasible for some properties.

Potential Permits Needed – Some areas require permits for placing dumpsters on public property, adding to the cost and hassle.

Junk Removal Service: Pros and Cons

Pros:

Convenience – Professionals handle all the heavy lifting, sorting, and disposal, making the process quick and effortless for you.

Faster Turnaround – Unlike dumpster rentals, which require you to fill them over time, a junk removal team can clear out everything in a single visit.

Eco-Friendly Disposal – Many junk removal services, including Moose Demolition & Junk Removal, prioritize recycling and responsible disposal, ensuring that items are handled in an environmentally friendly way.

No Space Concerns – Since the team arrives, removes the junk, and leaves, you don’t have to worry about having a dumpster sitting on your property for days.

Cons:

Less Flexibility – You must be ready to have all your junk removed at once, rather than working at your own pace.

May Cost More for Large Jobs – If you have an ongoing project with large amounts of waste accumulating over time, multiple junk removal visits can add up.

Which Option Is Right for You?

Choose a dumpster rental if: You have an extended project, prefer to load items yourself, and have space for a dumpster on-site.

Choose a junk removal service if: You want a fast, hassle-free solution, need heavy lifting handled for you, or have space limitations for a dumpster.
