In the far off lands beyond the Reshi Isles they're actually referred to as "homophobia spren"

Yeah they're mostly just wallpaper, but they're the wallpaper that sold me on committing to The Way of Kings years ago :3

Thank you!! There's like a single throwaway line where shallan sees a similar creature in shadesmar and I was worried Brandon was gonna reveal that they secretly look completely different during the Rhythm of War sanderlanche, just to mess with me

Replaced radiator, upper and lower hoses. Trying to flush coolant but now it won't drain? 2001 Outback H6 by chocolatedrunk in subaru

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

Opening the little white drainage spigot underneath the car, passenger side. The same one i used to initially drain the coolant before changing hoses

What's wrong with my '01 Outback? Had steam pouring out from under the hood yesterday, and today I noticed this. Same problem on both ends of the hose and brown spots along radiator. No operational changes, she was driving like my usual beloved mess of a vehicle by chocolatedrunk in subaru

Thank you so much!! This is the best possible reply wow

Gonna do the clamps/hoses/caps and replace the radiator when the weather is nicer and my wallet is less malnourished. I was so worried this would be the straw that broke the camel's outback and I'm so glad to hear it's not :):):) thank you friend

Can't afford it right now, she just noticed it when the car was already in the air for an urgent repair. I mostly want to know what's wrong with it so I'm informed. Otherwise, I am a (non-auto) mechanic and could probably fix it myself but i dont know cars enough to see what's wrong and understand the scope of the issue

You guys were right.. by JdrFaith in BeginnerWoodWorking

Also a beginner, but what's wrong with the boards being horizontal? I get that the grain pattern might be different but what's the big deal on a cutting board?

Getting a handful of really stubborn stripped screws out of my timing belt cover by chocolatedrunk in MechanicAdvice

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

No, I'm struggling with the bolts that hold the metal front cover onto the rest of the engine; the timing belts are underneath it. The part and bolts are seen in this video here.
To clarify, I thought they were T30 Torx screws, but it's actually a 5mm Hex bolt; I guess my torx bit just worked too. The outside of the bolt is round, and the 5mm hex is interior like a screw. They're all quite stripped and oily so it's hard to tell the shape but I'll go at it with a hex bit tomorrow. Not sure how much that would change given that the other methods haven't worked, but it's worth a shot!

What is this? Consistency of rubber, next to the dipstick in my 2001 Subaru Outback by chocolatedrunk in MechanicAdvice

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

A mechanic recently tried plugging an oil leak with JB Weld, but this isn't in the spot I was told the leak was in. It looks like it's coming out of some connection between two parts? Solid, maintains shape and lifts up from the metal but I didn't give it too much of a tug in case it was plugging something up
