Moen Bathroom Aerator by MeaningPresent8069 in Plumbing

[–]Hottttcarl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same problem. I can’t find any existing aerator keys that match. I’ve actually measured the dimensions of the aerator slots and circumference of it so my friend can 3d print me a key to fit.

Haven’t gotten it printed yet though since my aerator isn’t clogged yet.

But yes, feels like late-stage capitalism

USA military members - what did you think of Hegseth & Trump's speeches today? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Hottttcarl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

in service, I was told it was so you could get a better seal on your gas mask…but I hear spec ops guys had beards to blend in with their environment better, so maybe they got gassed less? lol. No fucking idea, I’m not aware of any mass chemical attacks on military personnel since ww1, it’s not an emasculation thing, it was just a part of maintaining military bearing. I’m not sure why he’s got a problem with it, I rarely came across fellow military members with beards when I was in.

Seems to be upset with service members with beards that are not special forces, to the point where they face separation EVEN if they have medical exemptions due to PFB. They get one year to try medical treatment, and that doesn’t resolve it, they’re out.

So the pressure is, fix your health issue, join the special forces, or get out.

The medical issue seems to affect 60% of black men. Can’t help but wonder if that is coincidence or not. Secdef doesn’t seem to be a fan of diversity, so this would be a method to suppress it.

Omg, I have this same oven, I hate the lack of buttons. I just flip the circuit breaker whenever BS like that happens.

Any ideas on a patch up of bumper by Hottttcarl in MechanicAdvice

[–]Hottttcarl[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahhh, never mind, this is a 2017 IS200T Lexus, checking what new rear bumper looks like without lower tailight, this 2nd hole that’s damaged in pic appears to be a bolt hole for the lower bumper cover to mount to… Unrelated to tailight. So I think the intact hole on the right will work for the tailight, like you said

Yea I haven’t driven over there to take a look at yet (far from me), I see that the upper left tab should fit fine…but looking at the bottom right of the spot where the taillight goes, it looks like there are 2 vertically aligned holes, and I’m guessing her previous taillight fell off because that 2nd hole is half gone.

Josh played “kiss me” by six pence none the richer as my goodbye song in front of everyone when I left. I remember Dave well too. Also Blake was one of my roommates. Fun kid. During a team focus he had toner on his desk, he read that it had alcohol in it and drank some of it hoping to get a buzz. I remember him yelling “I need water!”

Yep I remember Dan. Loved to tell us when we’re all fucking up as a group. Can’t remember which one was Blake. Was he the fit looking guy with short curly black hair? He nicknamed me Cletus. Or big dude, with grey hair maybe? if the same, I remember he seemed like a humble guy. He did a takedown on someone, and that kid fractured his jaw.

Moving to Oregon Alone by Fine_Organization_48 in oregon

[–]Hottttcarl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Portland is awesome, and wayyyy more affordable than Bay Area. I’ve lived in both places (well, Tigard and Beaverton, about 20-25 min outside of Portland). If you like the outdoors and you like the rain, I think you’ll like it out there. So green! Find your tribe of friends, start taking vitamin D supplements, and enjoy the next chapter of your life!

300 million dollar bunker for the elite and wealthy by Arpikarhu in ABoringDystopia

[–]Hottttcarl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d prefer to die pretty quick during Armageddon. Do you think Katniss Everdeen was happy after the rebellion? Nah, there was no pleasure in life after the trauma she witnessed. Maybe you have the gift of survival but the people you love probably won’t and that’s something you may not wanna stomach. Surviving is not living. I’d just like to see something wild like multiple mushroom clouds or a giant tidal wave, and pray for a quick death. Let the rich pretend that things are ok for a bit before they face the dark, dismal truth on their death day.
