  • So… what’s the real endgame here? What’s the agenda?

    Is it strictly some mind bogglingly dumb but well intentioned effort to do what they genuinely believe is what’s for the best of human health, with a complete absence of understanding of how to apprehend let alone interpret the most basic of scientific studies?

    Could a large cluster of people really be that skull fuckingly brain damaged?

    Or - and I’m very cautious to not claim this as fact - is there some actual further nefarious agenda at play? (Which I’m having a bit of a hard time articulating?)

    Is it an “X superpower has dirt on the administration, and is pushing for things that will harm the US in order to comparatively increase their international standing and influence” kind of play?

    Or some “make them even more weak, sick and bankrupt (and having less access to education and critical thinking), they’ll be easier to control and manipulate” kind of play?

    Or an “if we make public health even worst than it is now, we’ll (somehow?) find a way to privatize even more health related see stuff? (I don’t know what’s left to privatize in US health though)” kind of play?

    Or literally “we need to fight overpopulation, and the rich will always have access to healthcare and vaccines anyways, so push that shit to eventually kill the poor in droves”?

    As a xennial with ADD, send me the short, I’ll watch it, hunt down the article, read it, then spend 3h down a rabbit hole to understand the validity of the claims and the bias of the news outlet, then I’ll get bored and stop typing in the mid




  • UPDATE thanks all for the comments, just a few clarifications and updates:

    • all electrical work is work-in-progress, we’re finishing it up tomorrow, it’s still an active worksite. The old outlet and old bx wiring is being removed, we’ll only have the newer wiring (and of course all outletd will be in their gangboxes and covers will be on)

    • the dryer vent will be changed and installed without sag when we finalize

    • the 4" abs drain connects to the old one with a rubber fernco gasket, those do require hose clamps and they’re up to code (though the top clamp could be straightened!)

    • the water lines are pex, they’re all good

    • we don’t have a choice but to push the water up with the washer pump - the drain evacuates to the city sewer around hip level in that basement

    The worries for me are really the 90° out of the sump pump and the other 90° into the drain column, shouldn’t that be a downward Y? And the double S p-trap, is it creating some risk?
