My old man loves to lay behind me in the kitchen as I make food. He doesn’t mind “helping” when I load or unload the dishwasher.

Our tax dollars are already being wasted. The people they capture aren’t a threat, physically. Why?

I bought these for a plumbing project that ultimately I couldn’t do. They are both opened and the packaging is gone. Can I return?

The bad: Not great looking, awkward at first, not a fan of cats or traveling the world.

The good: well educated, proudly nerdy, ferociously loyal, emotionally available, fiercely compassionate, saves lives thru donating blood and packing meals, unafraid to be vulnerable. I’ve helped over 60 foster dogs find their forever homes.

I enjoy exercising, magnet fishing, axe throwing, archery, board games, fix it projects, puzzles, dog agility, reading suspense novels and being a good dad.

Message me ladies! ❤️😘

His legs are weak but his spirit is strong. He loves to catch his lamb toy, lick a peanut butter lickmat (he even carries it with him around the room), and hunt for treats in his snuffle mat.

I don’t think he will last much past the fall. 12 years old, myelopathy and a “mystery lump” (which the vet said is benign but the next step is surgery $$$ if it grows).

I love this guy so much. ❤️❤️

2019 Toyota RAV4. 120k miles. Automatic.

Each time I drive there is a leak on the passenger side. It’s hot out. Maybe related to air conditioning? Should I be concerned?

We live in Minnesota. He’s originally from Costa Rica but doesn’t like heat. We go outside, he pees, and he runs (best as he can anyway) back to the house.

Years ago, I attached this t-shaped piece to my shower head to attach a separate hose, which I used to bathe my dog. I want to soak the whole thing in vinegar and water to clean it, not just the white shower head. There is green build up in the “T”. Would vinegar do any damage to the thread tape (I think that’s what it’s called)?

I needed the main water shut off valve replaced (my fault). The pipe originally had foam insulation wrapped around it. The plumber had to remove it to do his job. He says it doesn’t need new insulation. For context, it is a town house. This space is an “internal” room. The wall behind it is a neighboring unit. So no exposure to winter temperatures unless you want to count the concrete slab and the fresh air intake. It’s also where the water softener, heater and furnace are.

Is he correct that I don’t need to replace the insulation?

I need to replace all the shut off valves in my house. I didn’t realize there are so many sizes!

Here is one photo of a toilet valve. Others have green corrosion on them. The nut leading to the toilet is 5/8”. The pipe from the wall is 5/8” diameter. The nut on that pipe is 1”.

What size valve do I need? Menards didn’t have anything “5/8 x 5/8”.

For tools, I have crescent wrenches, emery paper, thread tape, and a pipe brush. What other tools do I need?
