@justsnook older. also, even with flossing, when you discover a popcorn hull rattling around in your mouth 2-3 days after you ate popcorn.
@jerzone i’m cool with a screen and a chamber where it can build up until it’s emptied or something. i might research something like that (or put it off again until i need to fix the faucet next year)
@cabel i always think of those like secret messages, you have to select them to read. like when we would write notes with milk when we were kids
@jerzone i think i might at least put a screen inline at the shutoffs for the kitchen. $45/yr in cartridge tax is getting old
today i cleaned out the water inlets to our washing machine, after i was made aware that it doesn't fill from hot or cold.
we have well water, and lots of silt/sand/tiny rocks/rust get pushed through the pipes and land on the screens of the inlet.
i use a lab 'wash bottle' to jet the silt out of there onto an old towel.
i end up doing this every couple of months. this, plus the annual mixing-cartridge replacement for the kitchen sink, means i should probably invest in a whole-house filter.
since my old sneakers are literally falling apart at the seams, i’ve finally relented and began wearing my new ones (exact same model). i already miss the paracord laces, i might have to move those over.
