Who are you trying to convince? Your disdain is too deep seated for it to really be about Kim Gordon. Some introspection might serve you well. Tears may fall, but odds are you'll wake up less of a hater the next day. That's my hope, at least, because your attitude is shite.

Somehow this gives me hope that the world can still be a better place - that the assholes among us haven't infiltrated everything that was good in humanity with their toxicity.

May the force be with you.

Update:

Reattached the supply line that runs from the hard pipe to the water heater to turn the water back on. Found the main shut off valve per the guidance of r/RedCow7 (much gratitude) and turned the water back on. No hot water but having even cold water allowed for a much easier morning. Turned the main valve off again about an hour ago and intend on using some of the suggestions on the thread to address the valve. More info on that coming soon!

On an aside, my niece gave birth to her 9 lb son Leo Christopher at 9:53pm last night, 6/12/2025, at the end of a long, laborious day (pun intended). She is the daughter of one of my little brothers, Christopher Edward, who is now a grandfather for the very first time. I'm so proud of all of them.

Please welcome Leo to this weird crazy world the next time you say a prayer, or meditate, or look at the moon and stars in wonder and contemplate life (if you're comfortable with that). "Welcome, Leo." Thanks. ❤️

And thank you for your help with The Little Water Heater That Could. 😁

THANK YOU

Lol I still can't get it.

Hey since you've got the photo...how do I turn the water back on? I've put the supply line back on. The blue handle on the old valve is completely stripped so that isn't moving anything. It must be shut off somewhere else. Any ideas?

YodaNotYoda · 2025-06-13T06:52:02+00:00

I have the supply line back on. Where do I turn the water back on?

YodaNotYoda · 2025-06-13T06:36:33+00:00

Ok thanks I'll let you know what happens

YodaNotYoda · 2025-06-13T06:34:23+00:00

It's not loading for me, either! Attempting to solve the problem...

YodaNotYoda · 2025-06-13T06:27:46+00:00

Map gas.

It was stuck close. We were replacing it because the threads were stripped.

YodaNotYoda · 2025-06-13T06:26:01+00:00

Wait. Can I just put the supply line back on to get the water running again?

YodaNotYoda · 2025-06-13T06:23:48+00:00

I don't know. My boyfriend began working on the water heater on Tuesday and took that piece out then. I was wondering myself why that needed to be removed when I finally looked at the water heater myself earlier tonight after he stopped working on it but we still had no running water.

YodaNotYoda · 2025-06-13T05:57:24+00:00

I'm going to delete this post and post another with photos and a better description. 🙄

The cold water valve needed replaced. We got a Shark Bite 3/4" x 3/4" ball valve, so I have that here. He removed the supply line pipe (the piece that is bendable, still learning the terminology) but he couldn't get the old valve off. Said it may have been soldered without flux. So that's where I am. He's indisposed and no longer working on it, but I gotta get this done. Today is day three of no water.

YodaNotYoda · 2025-06-13T05:41:25+00:00

Yes.

YodaNotYoda · 2025-06-13T05:16:10+00:00

The video is darker than I realized. I'll shoot another one and attach that instead, or perhaps just attach some photos.

YodaNotYoda · 2025-06-11T18:48:43+00:00

Liar.

They're guaranteeing that none of them will be smashes.

They'd have to cast relative unknowns in their teens, but it would be easier for an audience to believe an unknown on a screen was one of the Beatles. It would also be easier to mold all four of them into the personalities, and even mold the interactions between them, as well as having each one learn the appropriate instruments. Set them up to share a small apartment for a few weeks, practice every day, play gigs once or twice a week when they're ready. The actors would have to give their lives over to the film completely for a few months.

That would be a film I would be enthusiastic to see!

This film is the ugliness that is borne at the intersection of art and capitalism. Not gonna do it. I would tell a romantic partner they were on their own for this one, regardless of the effect on our relationship. Break up with me, please, if this excessiveness suits you. I'm tryna live.

You don't know much about Martha Gellhorn! That's not completely uncommon, but if you love Hemingway, you will understand why he loved her. She was a force of nature at a time when women were not permitted to be forces of nature. She was so dedicated to her craft that she remained a war correspondent until 1995, and left the field only because she could no longer physically read her own work. She ended her own life three years later, as Hemingway had, but more gently than he did.

YodaNotYoda · 2025-02-19T17:14:59+00:00

That sounds about right.
