So I wasn’t sure if you were an asshole, but based on this comment, I’m am not certain you are.

I say this because it’s fun for me and I’ve been taught to speak at my audience’s level.

It’s pretty clear the issue here is you. Specifically, your reaction. The solution to than can only come from you. The world will not bend to you and the world is not responsible for making you feel certain things, that’s all you.

Drop of water depends on where the water is. Watch online videos to diagnose problems, it’s the opposite of doing this for personal health. People have some crazy cheap ways to address issues.

Crack, draw a line parallel to the crack on each side. Measure it and it on the wall. Check back and see if the measurement is changing. Patch it if it’s stable. If it’s not stable, probably not good news, start with videos of what others have done.

Ants are the easiest. There are barrier sprays that will keep out any insects. Fall instructions on the product but typically just spray it on the outside of the foundation once a year.

Houses are over engineers to stay standing up so don’t worry too much. The expensive stuff will come around ever couple decades like roof replacement so plan for that but most everything can be remediated with little effort, especially if you don’t care how it looks. You said it’s a fixer up, each patch is just another layer to its character.

I’m jealous you managed to finish it in a single sitting. I’m still not done, started and stopped three times so far.

I place is squarely in the “It insists upon itself.” category of movies.

The one I have I bought long long ago and it does indeed cut without leaving any sharp edges. I’m not sure if that’s universal or just the type I have, I purchased it without any research.

I don’t want to suggest any specific brand because fuck corporations. But the one I have is “Hamilton Beach Smooth Touch Electric Automatic Can Opener with Easy Push Down Lever” so that smooth touch might be the keyword to look for or they could have some ridiculous trademark on the term.

I didn’t know this was an option until I bought this one and it appears I’m not alone on this. Such a simple device no one thinks about and the default option is primitive.

Side cutting openers are a must in a home with children.

It wasn’t a loan. It’s ours now.

Stop using it before we make you another state.

Discovery a truth of the universe is not going to affect the truth of the universe.

You’re appearing to claim something nonsensical. The sort of wow-bang nonsense one reads about in pop-science magazines.
