  • Disclaimer: although I have experience building, I don't have personal experience with brick foundations.

    How old is this house? If it is a newer house, that seems like a sign of shoddy masonry, though it doesn't look new in those photos, so probably not relevant.

    Those cracks don't look that bad to me, and I have heard the rule of thumb of not worrying too much about cracks thinner than a pencil in old masonry, but idk

    What I can comment on is that I doubt that level of shifting was caused by the drainage based on the info you have presented. It could be caused by the tree and that is something to assess















  • All mechanical (fully non computerized) diesel engines are the only internal combustion engines which should be produced and automatic transmissions should be outlawed on new vehicles, and on board computer systems should be kept to an absolute minimum. Under a planned economy all cars will be tanks designed to keep running for 50 years with routine maintenance and anything else is counterrevolutionary.

    A large majority of pet owners are actively abusing their animals, either through neglect or through the inherent space limitations of their living space, or through isolation or through mistreating it. They in general don't have any regard for their animals except as far as they are cute or entertaining to the owner. This especially goes for anyone who keeps dogs in crates, but also any dog and cat owners who don't have space for their animal to roam- you have no business owning a pet. "B-but my pet loves me!" Of course! You are almost it's only source of food, companionship or any form of support
