Ring can be whatever you like as long as it looks nice and is well made. ...and isn't poisonous or radioactive or something.

Tungsten carbide ring could lead to you having a finger amputated in an emergency, it's better to have jewelry that can be removed easily by an EMT or doctor while you are unconscious.

Nah, tungsten is super easy compared to stainless. Stainless loving sucks. We have ring crackers for tungsten stored with the ring cutters, you can use vice grips from maintenance, and I once used the mallet from a Lebsche knife kit.

I went the other way with my ring and got titanium. It's amazingly light.

It also scratches like a motherfucker. I have one - that's why I have a TC one now.

Tungsten Carbide is also quite brittle.

They’re pretty easily broken off, either with a special tool or vice grips.

Lemniscate Blue posted:

Most ERs these days know that you just need a pair of vise-grips to crack a tungsten carbide ring easily and safely.

Hell, a hammer will do the trick. It's just a little riskier.


And I'm not worried about medical workers getting off because that. I've dropped TC stuff before...

I also really only wear it when we go "out". Most of the time I wear a silicone ring, because I have a fear of degloving a finger working on my cars and stuff.

It's apparently a single family residence, but with a list price that went from 38k to 350k to 310k to 600k, and an aesthetic that I'd charitably describe as dilapidated warehouse cum bar cum strip club. Excellent toilets and windowless bedrooms though.

Oh ejsus. Oh god. I won't make jokes about trafficking because that's horrendous and traumatic. But you know those vaguely misogynistic movies where the poor widdle teen girl gets kidnapped and the big tuff guy has to rescue her from traffickers or kidnappers and what not? This is the home base of the kidnappers in that movie. Just really. Phew. Look at this.



I love that this was the first image you see when clicking that link. TWO chairs? Amazing, first class.



Now WHO is responsible for placing that tv? All the loving way up there? The ceiling height makes me think this is a family of human giraffes.



As much fun as we make of those overpriced lounge chairs, I realize there is a good reason to include furniture and caring about its placement. Anyone see the movie Barbarian? This feels like the room under the house. You know the one. No spoilers, promise.


Please note the slider barn door. You will never have any privacy or ability to lock your door. Aww the one room that's not prison grey. However...



The fact that it also shows up in the torture dungeon esque colosseum gives me bad vibes. Like if this was a movie, it would be symbolic of something bad. Like indicating abuse or something.


This fire extinguisher is trying to commit suicide. This is in the bar / pub section of the house. Not sure what it's for as it doesn't seem to hold food or drink, or game equipment?


This is also in the bar area.This is the toilet the hero has the girl hide in while he viscously murders everyone in the bar area. First of two prison toilets.

Not even paper. Cmon man.

The TVs are all placed really badly for that gag.

I've only seen one bad degloving injury, and now I never ever ever ever ever wear my ring when doing anything at all where it could get snagged and pulled. Holy poo poo are they gross cases for some reason, and I say this as someone who routinely sticks tubes into people's chests.

Having a hot appliance in the middle of a room where people walk around it and there is no range hood above it.

That doesn't seem good to me. Is this okay?

Motronic
Nov 6, 2009

No range hood is never okay.

There's also wildly insufficient space on either side of that stove for actual cooking to take place and no real amount of counter space anywhere near it anyway.

So that's a display kitchen. I guess if the stove is never used it's fine.

There's also this fun little outbuilding!


:unsmigghh:

A good friend of mine was driving through Ohio a while back. She (note gender) stopped at a roadside rest stop type place to use the bathroom. Taped to the inside of the stall door was one of those posters with a line of tabs on the bottom for you to tear off. The poster said something like "Are you or someone you know a victim of human trafficking? Call this number." Most of the tabs were gone.

I'm pretty sure it was this part of Ohio.

Found this article

quote:

The program was launched around the end of 2020 "It was created by and in collaboration with sex trafficking survivors, so effectively, all of the content and everything that people learned was approved by individuals that experienced trafficking," said Jake Neeley, executive director of the Malouf Foundation. "In the end, together we created curriculum that they can approve and honestly say that this would have helped them in their situation. This would have helped their community see them sooner and helped them get out of that trafficking situation sooner.

whaddya know, 2020 is also the year this place was listed for $38k
there was a bust in Ohio in 2019 of a hundred person operation, including an ER doc, which has pretty grim implications

Now I've made myself sad

What I was taught is not to gently caress around with silicone rings and that in a no-jewelry environment don't wear so much as a nitrile glove.

I think you can "get away with" a little less ventilation if it's an electric stove, because then you've only got cooking odors and particles, but that looks gas to me, and you 100% need ventilation for a gas appliance because of the byproducts of combustion.

They still look off but I think that's just a problem with how realtors photograph things now. They really process the poo poo out of the photos, it was super obnoxious when we were looking.

Free Solo is an ok documentary about a somewhat interesting individual/accomplishment, but the house/fridge scene is beautiful. The biggering and biggering of refrigerators such that you can just throw a 20 inch pizza box in there is absurd, but domestic americans have been frog in a pot gradual enough we hardly notice, or even think "counter depth" is puny or for poors. Now comes Honnold, bumbling his way into money and a relationship, and with it buying a house. So when they shop for a fridge, the little one seems "totally adequate" resulting in a comically undersized fridge in a carve out made for one twice it's size. The polar opposite of Uthors prospective kitchen
