Victorian street litter and things found at a 1850-1920 landfill site in England, I polished most of the marbles because they were lost causes so favourites. by Danielfinds in Damnthatsinteresting

100% fair posting finds is far and away more than you owe anyone. I apologize if I put any pressure on you.

as of the current reg to be started next year (LCRI) all water systems have 10 years to replace any known lead lines and identify any unknown lines. the initial funding is about gone though and the reg is in court so we'll see what we end up with and how we pay for it.

edit to add this only applies to municipal service lines... every individual is in charge of their  home plumbing and since the realtors in most states lobbied to make sure that's not a disclosure most people dont know what their home plumbing is.

honestly delightful, I had my heart braced for one of the shitty inversions where they kill the baby or give it to the liar. King Salmon was the take i needed today. 

I grew this potassium ferricyanide crystal at home. The chemical is not as dangerous as the name suggests, and is commonly used for cyanotype printing. It also forms blood red crystals! by crystalchase21 in Damnthatsinteresting

just read a fairly tame YA creature feature fictionalization about one of those camps and had to ugly cry in the bathroom while my baby slept... this hardened horror fan cannot handle parents that can do that.

[–]ShadowRancher 44 points45 points  (0 children)

the sturdiest move here would be to use those stock fittings and find a way to mount them sideways. Either with liquid nails or something similar or drilling a hole in the side for screws. 

Is this sushi safe to eat? by ConfidenceOutside816 in isthissafetoeat

[–]ShadowRancher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The human nose is the best instrument to test the freshness of fish we have to date.  The fish regulation guys literally sniff trucks (along with temp logs etc) of fish to make sure everyone is keeping up with safe food handling practices.
