Toilet Bubbles When Other Is Flushed #Shorts
Ok Drew. I don’t think he heard us. Go ahead and flush it, Drew. That is us flushing the other toilet in the house. And the air’s coming up here. So that means we have a vent that is not working. Now we’re on the hunt for a vent that is blocked. All right. Just let you know when you start seeing that bubbling anywhere else, you got a vent that’s not working. So keep that in mind. ????…

When the Pipes Cry Out: A Guide to Finding the Right Plumber for Your Needs
Tumblr media
Plumbing emergencies are never convenient. Whether it's a burst pipe flooding your basement, a clogged drain leaving you with a sink full of dirty dishes, or a malfunctioning water heater leaving you shivering in a cold shower, finding a reliable and responsive plumber is crucial to restoring normalcy to your life. But with countless plumbing companies out there, how do you choose the right one for your specific needs? This comprehensive guide will equip you with the knowledge and tools to navigate the world of plumbing services and find the perfect plumber to tackle your plumbing woes.
Understanding Your Plumbing Needs
Before embarking on your search for a plumber, it's essential to clearly define your plumbing needs. Consider the following factors:
Nature of the plumbing issue: Is it a minor leak, a clogged drain, a burst pipe, or a more complex issue requiring extensive repairs or replacements?
Urgency of the problem: Is the issue an emergency requiring immediate attention, or can it wait for a scheduled appointment?
Budget: How much are you willing to invest in resolving the plumbing issue? Be realistic and factor in potential additional costs for materials and labor.
Location of the plumbing problem: Is the issue located in an easily accessible area, or does it require specialized equipment or expertise to reach?
Exploring Different Plumbing Companies
Once you have a clear understanding of your needs, it's time to start exploring different plumbing companies. Here are some effective methods:
Online directories: Utilize online directories like the National Association of the Remodeling Industry (NARI) and the Better Business Bureau (BBB) to find licensed and insured plumbing companies in your area.
Personal referrals: Ask friends, family, and neighbors for recommendations. Word-of-mouth referrals can be a valuable source of reliable contractors.
Local home shows and events: Attend local home shows and events to meet potential plumbing companies and gather information about their services and portfolio.
Online reviews: Check online reviews on platforms like Google, Yelp, and Angie's List to see what other customers have to say about the company's work and customer service.
Evaluating Potential Plumbing Companies
Tumblr media
Once you have compiled a list of potential plumbing companies, it's crucial to evaluate them thoroughly before making a decision. Here are some key factors to consider:
Experience and expertise: Choose a company with extensive experience in handling plumbing issues similar to yours. Inquire about their portfolio and references to assess their capabilities.
Licensing and insurance: Ensure the company is licensed and insured to operate in your area. This protects you from potential liability issues.
Communication and customer service: Look for a company that communicates effectively, listens to your needs, and is readily available to answer your questions.
Contract details: Carefully review the contract to ensure it includes all the project details, materials, labor, warranties, and payment terms.
Pricing and estimates: Obtain detailed estimates from multiple companies to compare prices and services. Be wary of companies offering significantly lower bids than others.
Tips for a Successful Plumbing Project
Here are some additional tips to ensure a successful plumbing project:
Set clear expectations: Communicate your expectations clearly to the company, including your budget, timeline, and desired outcome.
Maintain open communication: Stay in regular contact with the company throughout the project to discuss progress, address any concerns, and make necessary adjustments.
Be flexible: Unexpected issues may arise during the plumbing project. Be prepared to adapt to changes and work with the company to find solutions.
Document everything: Keep detailed records of all communications, agreements, and payments related to the project.
Conduct a final inspection: Before making the final payment, conduct a thorough inspection of the work to ensure it meets your expectations.
Conclusion
Finding the right plumber for your needs can make all the difference in resolving your plumbing issues efficiently and effectively. By defining your needs, conducting thorough research, and evaluating potential companies carefully, you can find a reliable and experienced partner who will restore your plumbing system to optimal functionality and provide you with peace of mind. Remember to prioritize clear communication, set realistic expectations, and document everything throughout the process to ensure a smooth and successful project. With the right plumber by your side, you can tackle any plumbing challenge with confidence and get your life back to normal in no time.

TWO THINGS that will make me love any character guaranteed:
1) largely misinterpreted therefore giving me an "i (and perhaps a couple friends) am the only one who really gets them" complex. bonus if they're "high skill ceiling" IE a lot of information needed to Get Them is not readily accessible and takes digging OR they themselves just take a high level of Intellect and emotional awareness and love of nuance and semantics to get
2) a man who is such a big piece of shit (without crossing very specific lines) that i can make up excuses for and break my back trying to justify. usually they're "well-intentioned" but just go about things the worst fucking way imaginable AND/OR are a really good/nuanced portrayal of acting out because of trauma or just a nuanced portrayal of being a Bad Person

I've never had a cat before and I'm hoping to get one soon. Do you have any advice?
Treat a new cat as you would a new roommate. Give them space and time to settle, establish a pattern and a rhythm, and in time they may choose to become friends and spend time with you. Dont force a friendship.
Use simple words and repetition to establish communication. Words like breakfast, treat, snack, lunch, supper, dinner, food, and eat all basically mean, "I am feeding you; expect to be fed", but it's a lot for a little guy to remember. I just say "Dinner" when I mean "cat food is coming", and so my boy knows exactly what I mean when I say it. As a plus, using only one word for snack time means he has no idea what the other words mean, so I can talk about food in front of him without ruling him up.
Pay attention to body language. Cats all have different personalities, and you'll learn their likes, dislikes, and messages over time this way. Son boy here loves anything with plumbing but dislikes getting wet- his favourite blanket to chew and snuggle goes on his favourite chair, and he gives me a specific gesture when he wants me to kneel down so he can jump onto my shoulder.
Read into problematic behaviour. Cats pee in weird places when they're hurting, in distress, or have insufficient of unclean litter box space. Biting, attacking feet , and knocking things off tables often means they're understimulated and need you to play with them, or at least need some kind of enrichment or puzzle to tackle. Tail flicking can be frustration or irritation. Purring is usually good, but may also be self-soothing behaviour to alleviate pain, encourage healing, and relieve anxiety, like over-grooming.
Like children, "bad" behaviour isn't malicious- it usually means there's something you aren't seeing.
Learn how your cat expresses love. Loads of people think cats are uncaring, cruel, and indifferent, but the truth is, they're just not dogs. Spending time near you, showing an interest in tools you're using or projects you're working on, sitting the way you sit, laying on their back, rubbing on your legs, wiping their face on your shoes when you get home- these are signs that your cat is enamored with you. You're their family, they feel safe and protected around you, they're curious about things you enjoy and want everyone to know you're family.
Set reasonable expectations. Again, cats are not dogs.We bred dogs to desire our approval- cats walked into our lives themselves. They have no human-programmed need to fulfill a duty or perform a task to your standards.
Training cats to do tricks isn't as hard as people say, but the willingness or interest in doing the trick is more heavily reliant on personality and mood. Some cats will refuse all but the most basic requests- I'm lucky in that Ollie understands and is willing to do several, provided I don't abuse his trust and he's not crowded or overwhelmed or just bored of doing it over and over in a short period.
Ollie, for example, knows Up to stand on his back legs and hold my hand, Down to get to a surface I indicate, Out to emerge from a closed space, Come to find me where I am, Help? when I'm offering to let him use me as an elevator, Dinner when I understand he's hungry and am getting food, and when I put on his collar he knows to climb into his carrier 'cause we're going somewhere. And he'll do any of these about 90% of the time, either ignoring me or phoning it in when there's something interesting somewhere else, or if he's feeling anxious.
Lead by example. If you dread taking them to the vet, they'll see the anxiety in your body language and behaviour and likely learn to hate it, too. Again using my guy an example, I starred taking him on walks long before his first vet appointment, just to get used to his carrier and leash. Then his first checkup was relaxed and informal, with plenty of treats, and I let him explore the examination room with permission from the tech. Now he loves going, so I'm not stressed about taking him, so I don't stress him out in turn, and the vest doesn't have to deal with a stressed out cat slowing things down and fighting with them.
Make sure your sources are good ones, and also good ones for you. I will recommend Jackson Galaxy's YouTube channel for cat advice because a lot of what he does matches up with what I've learned and know to be true. I don't personally recommend Ceasar Milan because I personally find his methods distressing to recreate regardless of efficacy, so even if that advice was useful, *I'd* be miserable, and it'd just be trading one issue for another.
Have a person who can help. You never know when you might end up out of town overnight unexpectedly, or when your place may need serviced or fumigated, or if you may be called out of town. Before getting a cat, research reliable pet sitters, house sitters, pet daycares, whatever, just in case.
Consider pet insurance. No long spiel here, just think about it. Especially if you don't know your cats ancestry or potenyial health risks. An on top of that, fucking vaccinate them.
Dont let them free roam. At all.
I grew up on a farm with free-roaming barn cats. Do you know how many times child-me cried over having to bury them? Illness, disease, pregnancy, vehicles, other territorial cats, ticks, fleas, litter, poisoned prey, malicious humans, local wildlife, predatory birds, scrap metal, extreme heat, freezing temperatures, tainted water sources, poisonous or venomous critters, getting stuck in small or high places, tapeworms, loose nails, old equipment, falling branches...
I've seen some truly body-horror slasher-movie shit- just truly nauseating visual fuckery- and I'm telling you not to let your cat free-roam.
Leash training isn't hard. Supervised walks aren't hard. Even keeping your cat physically fit and entertained indoors isn't an impossible feat. Don't let your fucking cat fucking free-roam. Fuck
Also read up on foods and plants cats can't do, like every houseplant in existence is toxic it's insane
Anyhow yeah that's like. A couple things I guess
Here, have an Ollie Pic

mechanic reader who fawns over boothill's machine body with torrents of praise worthy of the sappiest romance novels—but doesn't even consider the man attached to all those gorgeous wires and fine pistons and elegant hydrolics and ooh, what an efficient system of dynamic pseudo-muscle memory!! you're so honoured to work with this beauty, to innovate upon it, even!
boothill, meanwhile, is fighting for his life to be acknowledged.
exhibit A:
he's laying on a metal slab in your lab, half of his chest popped open, your fingers fiddling inside with the tubes that feed into a fuel tank. you acquired top-grade Neutrinoil(TM) and you simply HAD to deep-clean and upgrade his plumbing. so he has to watch and bear it while you're straddling him, hands in his guts, cooing about how perfectly efficient he's about to be, how much energy he'll have, how that "awesome new engine's gonna exploit every last drop, not an inkling wasted, and this beautiful machine will run for ages."
"if ya like it so much, why not drop by my ship later? i could show ya a trick or two. put that new energy to use."
you perk up with excitement, and for a glimmering instant he thinks he's got it in the bag, until you gleefully announce, "oh, no, let's do it in my workshop! i'll hook you up to the scanners first, i must collect as much data as possible!! wait, is it a physical trick or should i also plug in the peri-mental data receptors?"

With moshang I think I'm equally fond of the possibilities/concepts where either Shang Qinghua is ludicrously attractive to demons in a broad sense (but doesn't realize it), or, where Shang Qinghua is just some weird little gremlin and everyone else cannot wrap their head around why THE Mobei Jun is so smug about seducing this man.
Or a combination, where no demon in their right mind would ordinarily look at Shang Qinghua and perceive a sex icon, but because such a high-ranking demon has clearly done so, they go "well there must be SOMETHING going on there" and then look closer and before they know it they're on the slippery slope to being horny about a guy who could help file their taxes or arrange to have their clan base's faulty plumbing fixed.
Basically it's all good. Demons en mass going "yeah yeah big scary dudes who punch good are a dime a fucking dozen around here, but do you know how hot someone who can skillfully use an abacus is?" vs demons going "the ice king is a respectable ruler but he has garbage taste in men, we all just smile and politely nod while he insists the weird rat guy he fixated on as a teenager is a catch" vs demons going "I really don't see the appeal -- wait he did what? he killed how many guys at once with 1 trick? he betrayed WHOMST? and lived?! and he knows how to get my door to stop making horrible squeaky noises?! okay yeah figures the king would marry him" but every option is a winner.
I'm also a big fan of both Shen Qingqiu and Shang Qinghua being not very attractive to demons in general, but it also being really common for demons to get super weird about first crushes and fixate hard on them, so in that sense they are completely normal choices for a couple of high-level demons to marry. Like the demon populace can appreciate the emperor actually landing his hot teacher and the king successfully marrying his teenage sweetheart. It's an idealized fantasy in terms of the scenarios, even if the actual guys are just weird humans. Nearly every average demon has lifelong daydreams about successfully seducing their first crush, so regardless of who those crushes turned out to be it's still a power move for LBH and MBJ to actually succeed.
Bonus if the fact that both SQQ and SQH are peak lords from the same sect leads to a bunch of demon kids developing crushes on the other remaining, unattached peak lords, and chaos ensuing. Especially for Liu Qingge. I think it would be funny for him to gain a flock of teenage demons with crushes, whom he keeps trying to fight off, only to discover that beating them up does NOT discourage them at all (actually makes the crushes worse). Or Yue Qingyuan getting mobbed like he's a pop star any time he makes a diplomatic visit to the demon realms. Sha Hualing deciding that she's just waiting for Liu Mingyan to become a peak lord before they make things official, since That's Obviously How It's Done, or Qi Qingqi doing a head count one day and realizing she suddenly has a bunch of unfamiliar "guest" disciples who sigh at her a lot and have funny-colored eyes...

Plumb bob tricks
Tumblr media
If a door or window is installed out of LEVEL, it will tend to rub on the jamb and it will be hard to get the reveal (spacing between the door and frame) to line up. Take a look at the picture above, the dotted green line represents LEVEL. The best way to describe LEVEL is to imagine a straight line that is perfectly horizontal. Take a read below to make sure your fenestration terminology is up to par. We hear these words used all the time, but have you ever taken the time to really think about what they mean? Equally important, these terms can have a major impact on your next door or window installation. What do they really mean? Our clear-cut explanation of Level Plumb Square & True. (as shown in the picture below) If the gap is larger than ⅜” from the string to the door, it is warped. An easy way to test for this is to use a string pulled tight from the top of the bottom of the door corners. If this has happened, the door will pop-out from the frame in one corner as mentioned above. But it is possible for the door slab to warp before it has been installed. The door slab is warpedĪgain, this is rare for a new door. Proper reveals are required to maintain Energy STAR® ratings on exterior doors 4. We’ve put together a diagram below to help explain this. As for the spacing between the door and frame (usually called the reveal) it is recommended that there is at least 1/8” on both the Strike and Head sides of the door and 3/32″ on the hinge side of the door. Fortunately, you can check that your door was made correctly by measuring both frame legs to make sure they match and both head and sill to make sure you have a matching pair. One of the door’s components was manufactured incorrectlyĮven though it’s rare and door manufacturer’s try very hard to produce every unit correctly, it is possible for a part to be made incorrectly and find its way into the field. (you can learn more about what installing a door true means here) 3. But if the other side of the door frame isn’t true with its partner – the door slab can appear warped because it will pop-out from the frame in one corner. It is possible to have a door slab level & plumb and one side of the door frame level & plumb. Note how the door legs don’t align with one another Here is a picture of another trouble-spot that we’ve seen on job-sites. The door’s frame legs are not installed true with one another (learn more about getting a level sill here) 2. Look at the picture below to get a better idea of what’s going on here.Ī level sill is the foundation for a good door installationĪs you can see, even if the door is level & plumb – if the sill isn’t, you will have a hard time getting your reveals to line up correctly. This is one of the most common issues when you’re facing the problem the door being installed level & plumb, but it still doesn’t work. The door slab is level, but the sill is not (learn some shimming tricks here) Let’s trouble shoot some of the possible causes below: 1. Even shimming properly at each hinge location, but no matter what you try – the door frame will not line up correctly with the slab. You’ve tried to do everything right, taking your time to find level & plumb perfectly. It won’t tell you where the front is, but does help with another big decision, inclination.Has this ever happened to you? We Can Help! But it’s not always possible to find such a spot and a wire wrapped at a convenient spot is a good second choice.Ī useful tool then, the plumb bob. If you can find a place on the tree to mark with a dot, where the bob hangs, then you can forgo the wire. Plumb Bob-a simple device for finding the correct repotting inclinationĪ few simple elements construct a plumb bob for a bonsai: a fishing weight, string, and a thick wire.īy altering the inclination of the tree the lead weight swings, and the ‘correct’ inclination (decided at the time of styling or restyling) is when it is directly over the wire tip.Īfter attaching it there’s only one rule: don’t bump the wire. You can get the orientation right with a far more accurate tool. The carpenter’s friend, a plumb bob, denies the need to revisit the photos you took when styling the tree. This gut-swoop is most common at a yamadori’s first potting, when huge inclination changes-sometimes 90 or more degrees-make us yearn for an alarm bell that will wake us from the close in work to stand back and see the big picture. Or, you are being careful, and have stood back, made adjustments, and then the final two twists of wire nudge the trunk 3 degrees. Posted by crataegus on Main Uncategorized | 10 CommentsĪ familiar dance at repotting time is excitedly getting a tree out of the pot, carefully working the roots, locking it all in with wire, adding media, and standing back only to realize the trunk is leaning 10 degrees off.

Prompt: Sukuna is too proud to ask for cuddles so you pretty much have to guess what he's pouting about when he does. But this time if he wants cuddles, he will have to explicitly ask for them.
Content: Sukuna/Reader, silly, jealous sukuna, toji cameo, unwelcomed flirting, cursing.

It always starts with Sukuna sitting a little bit closer than usual and being especially quiet.
It is the most subtle of changes, that’s why you miss it most of the time.
You sat on the sofa on your phone and Sukuna –who is normally a big fan of his personal space and is always keeping himself busy with something– sat on the other end of the couch and stared at the wall without saying anything.
When proximity was not enough to call your attention, he sighed loudly, spreading his legs on the cushions and his arms over the back of the couch. He throws his head back and looks at the ceiling, waiting for you to ask him what's wrong.
'Nothing' he would answer, and look away from you; so you would ignore it and keep doing your thing.
When being dramatic didn't work he would throw side glances your way, and you had to be very dense to miss them because he was in no way subtle about it. He would bounce his leg up and down, crack his neck and knuckles or even click his tongue. Anything but calling your name and telling you what he wanted.
Normally that would let you know he wanted something, but sometimes you had your mind on something else and you let it be.
If that didn't do the trick either you would be facing a problem, because Sukuna's next tactic to gain attention was starting a fight.
It was cute, needy Sukuna throwing a tantrum. You never knew why he refused to ask for a hug or to lay his head on your lap directly, but Sukuna's pouty lips had their charm. And today you felt like playing him around for a bit.
“The brat told me the cashier from the grocery store flirted with you again”, he suddenly spoke.
There it was.
He had the tendency to start fights when he wanted something from you because you had the habit of offering pets and kisses in exchange for forgiveness, or to help him calm down when he was particularly cranky.
It was true.
That morning Yuuji and you went to the store together to restock on food and snacks.
Sukuna had been up late trying to fix a plumbing issue in the bathroom so you didn't want to bother him so early in the morning, but postponing the task for later also felt like an inconvenience.
You called the youngest of the Itadori for some company and he turned up to be planning on running his errants as well. To celebrate such coincidence, you both agreed on going to a coffee shop together to have breakfast after going to the store while the grumpy ghoul slept.
So you picked Yuuji up and drived with him to the market, and you both got there early enough to avoid any of the exhausting waiting lines.
But after you finish gathering all the items on your list, because you were chatting with Yuuji the whole time, you didn't realize you both had queued behind a lady over that man's station.
The first time you crossed paths with this cashier a few weeks ago, his eyes had pissed you off a little bit, even when his words might have sounded sweet to anyone else. You thought a sterned look would be enough to shut him up for good, but apparently it wasn't because he had tried again that very morning.
It was infuriating.
You raged about the guy and his condescendent smile the whole way to the car. Yuuji had also wanted to go back and complain to someone about the man because he had also perceived his nasty attitude. You wished you could, but at the time you decided against it –for Yuuji's sake.
Yuuji was a ray of sunshine, always kind and smiling. But he was still an Itadori. His personality could be deceiving for what laid under the surface, he was just as predisposed to get into fights as his brother. Ugly fights.
You would get the guy next time. You couldn't afford getting Yuuji into trouble because of that asshole.
So you moved on with your day. Yuuji and you eventually forgot all about it after some cake and tea at the cafe, reason why the whole deal didn't come to mind when you finally came back home to a Sukuna that had just rolled out of bed on sweatpants and without a shirt on, and whose hair spiked in every direction. It was a sight that often made you forget about things.
But now that uncomfortable situation could be of use to you.
“Oh... Was that what it was?” You said non chantlant without lifting your eyes from your phone.
Sukuna scolded you with his expression, crossed his arms over his chest and asked, “Was it the same dude as last time?”
“Yeah… I think it was. The big guy with the black hair and the scar on his lip.” You saw him clench his jaw on the corner of your eyes. He sat up straight, fully turning at you with the whole intention of seeming offended.
“And what did you do about it?”, he asked with a stern voice.
You guessed deep down, it was annoying for him to hear about another guy flirting with his partner, but if that really were a problem for him he would be less sulky and more –like you said before– picking up the car and going to find the guy for a quick talk.
Right now Sukuna was probably half putting up an act, half wary about your odd reaction to him being defensive about something. Normally when he used that tone with you, you would match it, annoyed at him for talking to you as if accusing you of something.
You kept to your roll, not letting him stir you.
Calm and collected.
“There was not much to do about it. He just gave me a compliment, I said ‘thank you’ and paid for my groceries.”
In truth you told him to go to hell.
Maybe you should ask Sukuna to have a quick talk with the guy.
“Is that all? ‘Just a compliment’? Did you even mention that you had a boyfriend?”
Oh, the guy sure knew that. After all, the first time he hit on you Sukuna was right beside you and he was very vocal about what he thought he should do with his compliments.
“He didn’t ask.”
“He didn’t—?!”, he inhaled sharply. His next line was delivered between greeted teeth, “Don’t you remember how much you complained about him flirting with you even after you told him that we were there together, two weeks ago?”
“Yes, I remember. But if you think about it he wasn’t doing anything wrong.” Bullshit. You paused hiding a smirk, feeling his burning gaze of disbelief from the side. “Also, he’s very good looking. I was kind of flattered.” Yeah, right.
At your comment, Sukuna stood out from the couch as if his pants were on fire. “’Good looking’”, he repeated fuming, “’flattered’”.
“Yes,” you added for some flavor, “you don’t compliment me like you used to. It was nice to hear it.”
“THAT I DON’T—” Sukuna repeated as a broken record, incredulous.
Sukuna wasn't the type to give compliments with words. Yes, he said them because he knew you liked them, but when he actually saw something he liked about you he was more... physical about it. Pulling you close, kissing and staring in a way that made your skin tingle and your blood go hot. Sometimes he made you feel as if he could actually take a bite out of you, he would.
Sukuna walked the few steps that separated the two of you in a blink. You dropped your phone so you could see him in the eyes. One of his eyebrows twitched out of pure anger. Soon he was bending over you on the couch, both his hands pressing over the cushions next to each of your shoulders, cornering you.
“You’re needy for more of my attention, is that what you’re saying?”
You bit your lip to keep a smile from slipping out of you. You could never get enough of Sukuna's attention, that's for sure. You reinforce your serious expression. “I kind of do, yes.”
His nostrils flattered open as he snorted at your complaint.
“C’mon, Suku”, you chimed, seeing your scheme work. “Don’t be angry. I know you don’t do it on purpose.” You flashed an angelic smile at him, “No hard feelings, really. Why don’t you lay on the sofa so I can give you pets?”
“I don’t want your pets”, he bit off.
Ding, ding, ding!
We have a winner!
“You are right,” he said while still looking enraged, “I neglected you, let’s fix that right now.”
Yes! Let's fix that– wait.
It took you a second to understand what he meant but it was long enough for you to not be able to react in time to avoid the way he locked his hands on your hips.
“Suku, wait.” You tried to stop him but your protest fell on deaf ears as he used all his strength to pick you up from the couch. “Suku! You're gonna drop me, hold on.”
Sukuna lifted you up without showing much effort, in a way that left you no other choice but to wrap your legs around his waist for balance. He adjusted your weight so he could hold you properly.
“Don’t get all cranky now, I’m trying to mend my mistake.” You held on to him as best as you could, pirsing the back of his neck with your nails, while he walked with you on his arms towards the other side of the room. "Poor you, needing strangers to compliment you because your boyfriend wouldn't do his job right."
“Suku, it was a joke!”
“Joke or not, it’s true that I haven’t taught you some manners in a while.” He said and he kicked the bedroom door open.
You let out a high pitched cry, and like that, both of you disappear into your bedroom.
