Idk, wombat says it all the time so I just copy it from their profile when it feels appropriate
Holy fucking shit I didn't noticed.
Why the fuck you like carpets so much, it's fucking gross just to think about them.
I have always lived houses with tiles and I mop the floor every week else everything is filthy. How the hell you mop a fucking carpet?
gonna be mold central, especially with that half height open, uh design of the shower itself. But it's cheap and easy I guess haha :agony-shivering: fuck, how do you build this and feel like it's ready for human habitation - let alone take money for it goddamn
The place I'm staying in is all carpeted except linoleum in the kitchen and bathroom. Thing is, it's a converted stand-alone garage so there's no foundation, it's just ground, concrete, padding, then carpet. When it rains, water seeps up from cracks in the concrete. The carpets get slightly damp, repeatedly. It has been like this since the mid 90s. I know I'm getting fucking poisoned with mold, like literally, I have some weird neurological issues that my psychiatrist was convinced was the result of mold toxicity before knowing anything about my living situation. But I have nowhere else to go, so every day I feel like total shit and wonder how much long term health damage is being inflicted on me by fucking spores emanating from carpet.
Yea, I can relate; got some mold here too, though probably not as bad. It's a fucked up feeling when you know each breath is detrimental to your health, and that there's nothing you can really do about it. Masks maybe, but you can't really wear those at night... I hope you can get out of there somehow soon.
It’s a fucked up feeling when you know each breath is detrimental to your health
It really, really is, and it makes for a nice little closed loop of health deterioration because constantly recognizing that^ fact is also detrimental to mental health.
Thanks. I'd like to get out of here too, but I don't know if that will ever happen. It's weird because in other ways I know I'm really lucky to have it as good as I do, being able to stay here basically rent-free with no income. I'm rather stuck. Anyway, yeah I likewise hope you can get a place where you don't have to worry about that shit either, or if it's not too extensive, get the mold dealt with somehow, ideally by the fucking landlord, assuming you rent.Yep, that's what I do. I've got a HEPA running 24/7. And I sleep next to an open window with a little fan directing their airflow towards my head to try to get as much fresh, outside air as possible. It's a bit much when it's a real cold night, but still worth it.
I dunno, that sounds pretty bad to me. Even with the door closed, the fucking spores can still permeate the whole space pretty easily. If it's that thick, I'd be surprised if you weren't still being exposed quite a bit unfortunately. And from my limited understanding, a person may not feel effected by it at all until a certain threshold is reached. A threshold of either amount of exposure, length of time exposed, or getting sick in some other way just being too much for the immune system which then suddenly can't deal with the mold toxins even though it previously had.
Yes, the Maoist revolution can't come soon enough.
Also, too bad BMF isn't still around to guide us through these issues.

I mean, call the city inspectors, but who knows how they'll actually deal with it
There's gotta be some law or something that says you can't poison your tenant like that. Or maybe you can at least make them think there is so they'll replace the carpet with linoleum or something.
I should look into that, yeah. But complicating everything is that the landlord is a relative who is letting me stay here more or less without having to really pay rent. It's a weird situation and I'll spare the details, but yeah, I am trying to look into what can be done without upsetting too many balances.
That’s probably a pre-ww2 relic - these were said to be used by steelworkers and miners; grimy from the day's labor; they could use an exterior door to enter the basement directly from outside and use the basement's shower before heading upstairs.
I wouldn’t be shocked if they just kept going after they stopped doing exterior entrances “because we’ve always done it that way”
How the hell you mop a fucking carpet?
You don't. You buy a vacuum cleaner!
But the sticky things, how you get them off then?
Say your dog shat on the carpet, or you spilled something oily, or jam, or whatever.
Just wipe it with a baby wipe and forget what happened. That’s probably not the “right” way to do it but there’s a reason I refuse to have carpets
There are specialized carpet cleaning products for this that are widely available in stores. For the ones that I am familiar with, you spray it onto the dirty area, brush it into the carpet, let it dry, then vacuum it up.
There are larger machines that one can rent for "shampooing" the entire carpet area, which is something that ought to be done regularly. There are also professional services that do this.
I'd rather just have a rug that you can take outside and beat the dirt out of.
It's the same as cleaning car seats. You use a machine to shampoo them.
It's a line from "Silence of the Lambs." A psycho has imprisoned someone in a pit and keeps making them moisturize their skin or get sprayed with a hose. I've never actually seen it.
Skin that the psycho intends to wear as a dress later.

I'm sure the moisture regularly rising into the structural members of the home will have no consequences
So many details to appreciate
- The fact that they painted just the inner cube of the shower a different color
- The fact that the shower head is hooked directly into the water lines (or is it just the cold water line?)
- The curtain rod with rings and no curtain that only covers one of the four sides
- The fact that the wall opposite the shower head is not high enough to stop water from splashing out
- The carpet that looks suspiciously new (guess where the last tenant’s security deposit went?)
- And then it’s hard to tell but it looks like that one hot line running upstairs is forked from the one in the shower. So there’s a decent chance that running your kitchen sink will make your shower cold or something

The shower from the prison cell in Oldboy looks better than that.

LMAO. Shit the game seems like it's no longer available at the original place, did someone took the job of reloading the thing somewhere else?
check it. The environmental storytelling is impressive
(I had to go via the floorplan on the bottom left to some parts)
Oh god that's fukcing disgusting it land me right in the living room with the cat's shitter and it's litterpebbles-dust everywhere. AND THAT'S WHERE THEY PLAY GAMES AND WATCH THE ENTIRETY OF ANCIENT ALIENS. ALL COVERED IN CAT'S SHIT DUST
Thanks tho, I'm having fun.
Have you seen the production facilities yet? The warehouse? The living quarters? The little rug in front of the urinal? Have you found the bathtub? It just goes on and on and on °_° Oh, and soo many TVs
Enjoy, I was in there for about an hour probably, it's incredibly surreal
I actually found it organically lol, it was so surreal. I was just walking the endless aisles of presumably counterfeit dvds until suddenly, there it was: a blue... room? Is this, is this the fucking 'bathtub'? Are you serious? It's more like a shower room that you could flood - in the middle of what's essentially a warehouse. And it's also the only shower in the entire house-labyrinth. Bizarre.
oh, and it has the smallest drain I have ever seen for a shower that size; totally weird dimensions. And stairs that lead to a wall - - which may have been a door sometime ago. I don't even know man
I really liked the concept of a minipool that size but why. WHY. WHYYY in a fucking second floor of all things
seeing the general build-quality of that house and the custom-made nature of that pool-room - I wouldn't even trust that thing to still be structurally sound when filled with water. Like, I could see that whole thing just falling through the ceiling, especially if there has been a bit of rot over the years
But yeah, as a concept it's kinda cool; I'd like a huge-ass walk-in shower that I could turn into a little pool for sure
