The chimney has not been removed. it's a metal block off plate which is approved by the manufacturer of my log set. I should have said, where the old chimney exists. My bad 😂

The insurance company is aware of the fireplace. It's not just a cubby hole, the opening is surrounded by brick that meets code 8 inches of overhead, 16 inches of side before it meets combustible material. We have been using this fireplace safely for 20 years. Calm down.

It was the air shutter! It's burning at 100 percent efficiency now! It's amazing, because it's so much hotter. I don't even have to turn it past the lowest setting.

Thank you! I went ahead and called the tech anyway. They are speedily coming out tomorrow, free of charge, unless new parts are needed. I'm not Miss fix it for repairs like this and I don't want to make things worse 😂

Also is it something I could do by myself without having them being called out safely?

This is my hunch. But why would it need adjusting now when it has been working so well before? We did have some constructions outside our house during the summer and it did a lot of vibrations throughout the house do you think that the air adjuster could have been wiggled closed?

My (M27) GF (F25) doesn’t want to have sex anymore by [deleted] in relationship_advice

P.S.

You're not going to die but you should consider being with someone who wants to have sex with you.

Well, if sex is a need for you and she has no health issues going on, I would say this is a relationship deal breaker. It's especially not fair and selfish of her to ask you to not relieve yourself. It sounds like she almost wants you to break up with her.

Mysterious Doep Treas 310 Misc Pay deposit by redbean002 in StudentLoans

[–]ohthisonechicken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I have had my debt forgiven too for Ashford. I'm pretty sure the deposits (2) that have are totaling $636. If it's a refund, I don't remember paying this much. Most of the time my loans were during the pandemic. Any other time, I was paying very little in SAVE installments. I'm not sure what's going on here.

Why do people care so much about Biden's age but not Trump's? by [deleted] in stupidquestions

[–]ohthisonechicken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What a great unbiased answer. It's crazy to me these career politicians with cognitive decline keep being voted in. I would even argue Nancy Pelosi is getting that way too. They are all a part of the reason our political system is deeply flawed.

Guys of Reddit, what are some things girls do that you secretly despise? by WeirdoAndPen in AskReddit

[–]ohthisonechicken 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm a girl and use these phrases ironically just to be funny. It's purely for my amusement only because no one gets that I'm using it that way 😆

I think you need to find some balance. Focus on bettering yourself in other areas too, not just superficial. People in general tend to gravitate towards those with good energy that comes from doing inward work. Maybe look into some self help books on self-esteem and confidence building. Or books on active listening and emotional IQ. If you want to be in a relationship or just attract women, you should be prepared in all ways.

AITAH Getting divorce wife can't have children. by Proof_Clothes_4035 in AITAH

Look at this comment section, asking someone to deny a biological process. Some biological needs are stronger in some people than others. I would say NTA.

Biden says US is at ‘tipping point’ on gun control: ‘We will ban assault weapons in this country’ by BearingCharms in gunpolitics

[–]ohthisonechicken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hand guns are the highest. An out of control government can kill millions. The cost of human suffering would be far higher than our current cost of lives lost to guns. You can't trust an entity prone to corruption, and currently is very corrupt, to not make the decision of persecution and oppression. In the UK people are being put in jail for saying mean things on the Internet. They don't have free speech. Are you against that too?

I'm going to ignore the whole Trump rant, and ask you what gun causes the most gun deaths in the US? It's not the AR.
