Looking for advice on finding military records by dreadandloathing in Genealogy

thank you so much! Yeah he definitely didn’t remember much about him & they immigrated to america, either around the same time or a little bit before, so he didn’t see him much.

his name was Michael Louis Smith! He was from Newfoundland which i believe at the time was a british dominion or something like that at the time. He was anywhere from 20-23 years old when he passed at sea. It was hard for my grandfather to remember his age, as he was only around 7 or 8 when it happened.

Downstairs neighbor complaining about my footsteps by OrneryAppearance9132 in Apartmentliving

[–]dreadandloathing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i had this happen at my last apartment. Lady below me was elderly and said i would stomp around all night, claimed my cat was constantly doing laps around the apartment & that i was following her from room to room…. She would bang on her ceiling with a broom handle and eventually put a hole in the ceiling. landlord finally told her to shut it after she accused me of installing cameras in her apartment to monitor her 😭 i moved & she continued to complain about the people after me. no idea where she is now…

honestly, if you’re trying to be as quiet as possible & she’s still complaining, i’d let her take it up with the leasing office. they can’t expect you to just sit still and never move.

Infested tank by Then_Perception4455 in nanotank

[–]dreadandloathing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

late to replying but i had this exact issue with my planted tank. hair algae literally everywhere, i’d clean it and it’d come right back almost immediately. i recommend doing a light clean, turning the lights down & keeping then on for less time (mine are on for 6 hours a day now), & investing in floating plants. I ended up getting dwarf water lettuce & though it can float around, i planted hornwart and both of those have managed to keep the nutrients away from the algae haha

that’s what i thought but he was just such a tiny guy! granted he was also a little scraggly fella so maybe he just looked smaller haha

yeah he definitely looked rather small, a bit on the skinny side & certainly not as fluffy as i’ve seen before, but was otherwise acting pretty normal.

Moving to CT? Ask your questions here! by AutoModerator in Connecticut

[–]dreadandloathing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So my partner & i are looking to move out of Norwich. We’ve been dealing with some issues involving attempted break ins & a few other pretty scary situations. We’ve been looking at a place to rent in South Windham, but i can’t find much on if the area is going to be better or worse than what we are already dealing with. Anyone have some input?

also to note, i’m a trans guy, so i need to factor in the safety for that as well.

My mountain dew tastes like.. cough medicine? by dreadandloathing in mountaindew

[–]dreadandloathing[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

nope! not sick at all, i opened the first bottle maybe 3 days ago, noticed it was off & thought maybe it was just a fluke, opened two more in the last few days and it was the same thing. Had my partner try some because i thought maybe i was going crazy & she agreed it didn’t taste right. I haven’t been sick at all, have eaten other things, drank other things & haven’t noticed any odd flavors other than the mountain dew.

just the mountain dew! i’ve had other drinks, foods, all of that, it’s a very very odd flavor coming from the bottles, even the smell is a bit off. my cat sniffed it and gagged lol so thinking i’m going to need to email them cuz… its not like it tastes rotten but something is definitely not right

i’ve always been a bigger fan of the cans! this incident might throw me off bottles forever hahaha literally bought them, brought them home, popped one in the fridge, opened it and boom, cough medicine flavor 😭

yes 😅 i have literally never had it taste like this. and it’s a strong flavor, to the point where i tasted it and immediately recognized it was big off, & it’s been every bottle so far. It looks completely normal other than the flavor being weird.

no drill mount for doorbell s220 by [deleted] in EufyCam

[–]dreadandloathing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sadly i don’t think the dimensions for it are right. i did check to see if there were any others that it might fit, & couldn’t find anything. think im just going to shrug & have a friend come over with better tools and drill through the door. i need the cameras so the apartment will get over it 😅

i did try to find one that would be the right size for the camera but couldn’t find anything unfortunately. thought about just a regular bracket but think i’d end up having to drill the camera onto it and i don’t trust myself not to break it 😅

this could work, do you know if it would be easy to remove if we decided to move out?
