Thankfully there aren’t any strong smells as far as I can tell. All the rooms smell pretty clean.

When we moved in there were a couple of sites of water damage that us and our home inspector could see in the basement. The biggest one was below the main bathroom, looked like a pipe busted at some point, but the inspector noted that it looked like it was cleaned up ok and that there didn’t look to be any mold growth on the spots he could see.

As far as anything recent, we haven’t had any notable water spillage since we moved in.

We’ve been looking into hiring a contractor for some remodeling work so I’ll be sure to ask when we’re talking through what we want with the house.

Thank you for the advice!

The physical battery idea has been a thing for decades in the form of a pump storage plant where during times of excess electricity, they pump water up a hill, and when power is needed it works like a hydroelectric power plant. The problems with these however is that in order to get a meaningful amount of power and longevity, you need a lot of water and space to build one of these which makes them massive and expensive up front. I have one near me, but I also live near one of the biggest lakes in the world, which helps.

If I recall correctly, Switzerland has a lot of gun control laws that dictate who can own a firearm, when and where the firearm can be used, and ownership requires strict training and licensing that often comes from the compulsory military service that the country requires. All of that would be great to have here in the US since the little tidbit about guns in our rule book mentions a well-regulated militia.

I haven’t been arrested by Italian food cops yet so I’d say it’s fine. Do whatever you want to food that makes it taste good to you because taste is a very subjective thing.

Hey, on the bright side, manpower is manpower.

What’s wrong with galvanized square steel? It’s a strong, corrosive resistant material great for regular use in damp environments. Just don’t cut it, weld it, eat it, etc. Zinc isn’t all that healthy in large amounts.

Does Carmen San Diego work there or something?

I remember when Michigan once ruled the great seas. Good times.

I’m having trouble understanding the purpose of this clarification. I don’t think anything I said disagrees with anything you said.

How could she live knowing she could have protected Jaxon but had decided she was too afraid to have a gun?>

It doesn’t sound like she’s living well knowing she could have protected Kimi but had decided she was too afraid to not have a loaded and ready to fire gun.

Imagine not living in 616 though.

It’s what plants crave I guess.

I’d be worried about the now excess co2 levels disrupting the normal saturation levels in the groundwater.

Where’s Upton Sinclair when you need him?

Man, equating voters wanting transparency to voters wanting to bring slavery back is some water park level slippery slope fallacy at play here.

Nothing says punk more than enabling for profit corporations to hold sole ownership of the utilities that we need to continue living in a bare minimum standard of living. /s

Looks like Space Station 13.
