Sure, I post roughly fortnightly so the overhead is low. And, uh, big fan, love your work.

It really seems like I'm almost always right about confirmation bias.

After six months of our kitchen/laundry drain backing up and needing me to snake it, this morning these chunks (among several others) came out. That's about a 1.5cm buildup in a 6cm pipe, so a 75% reduction in drainage even when it wasn't blocked outright. Hoping this solves the problem.

I tightened the aerator on the sink faucet in the bathroom next to my office so finally after three years it doesn't drip on the counter.

I have a list of books I don't have physical copies of that I'm waiting for nice hardcover editions of. The Broken Earth was at the top. Immediate pre-order!

Magnesium.

Prior owner did all of the electrical work themselves, using parts they got on the cheap, and didn’t label anything in any of the six fuse boxes scattered around the house.

Who decides what “the same” means here?

My sister’s cat did the same thing recently. Maybe there was a cat con or something?
