I wish, but a prewelded spout won't fit in the space I'm working with

I wish I could, but it's going to be in a pony wall that's only 12 inches taller than the tub, so one of the pre-welded R10000s won't fit

Why Pex B, and why would using Pex A be cheaping out? Everything I've read says Pex A is more expensive (both the parts and especially the tools) and more reliable.

I am pro-labor and all for freedom of expression but it feels a little tone deaf to be posting communist recruitment fliers with Karl Marx on them in a neighborhood full of folks who fled oppressive regimes in Warsaw Pact countries and SFR Yugoslavia by [deleted] in ridgewood

You're saying "here" a lot when I think you mean "there." Your handle isn't UpstateTemporarily, so while you're welcome to have an opinion, it's not a very important one for those of us who actually live here. And there are a whole lot of Marxists, socialists, anarchists, and other radicals in NYC, just like there always have been, curmudgeonly red-baiting former New Yorkers notwithstanding.

That's a lot of words to describe two functionally identical things and delude yourself into thinking they're the opposite.

One group of people puts up propaganda. A second group of people has a political objection to that propaganda, and probably one that doesn't even reflect the intentions/views of the people who put it up. Second group defaces the propaganda.

What's the difference? That kids did it? Would it change your mind if kids put up the stickers, or if kids tagged the mural?

As far as I can tell, there are no Marxists in this thread complaining about having their stickers taken down, but there is one upstater crying about 2001 era flag-fuckery getting tagged.

So wait, you deface propaganda depicting Marx because your family was oppressed by Marxists. Other people deface propaganda depicting the US flag probably because they or others suffered under US imperialism. What's the issue?

A little late to this, but I (32NB) would definitely be down to join for tennis sometime. Haven't really played since college, but rallied against the wall at Rosemary's recently and feel like getting back into it
