I remember 2008. McCain vs Obama. I preferred Obama but honestly I wouldn’t have minded too much if McCain won, it was just Sarah Palin that was crazy.

Contrast that with Jan 6th, 2021. The loser of the election incited a riot and attack on the US capitol and democracy. This individual is running again.

It’s coming for you… I’ve already bought it and played it all the way through on pc, switch, and android

Having mixed gender friends is not the issue. They sleep in the same bed and do sexual stuff together. OP said they are a package deal. OP said the roommate may not be able to move out.

I’m going to be honest. This will be a big hump to get over for most people. They have to be very trusting or vulnerable early in the relationship because this situation makes it very easy for you to cheat on them. Or your friend to get jealous and poison the well

I’d suggest anyone intrigued read Gaia’s Garden by Toby Hemenway and look into permaculture!

Starting your own forest garden is fantastic but please don’t alter any existing forests without learning about the existing eco system and which native plants would best fit into it

I don’t think so. As long as nothing gets inside the outlet box there should be no fire hazard. There are acoustic caulk that don’t dry out and crack, which helps with sound proofing. I’ve heard Red Devil caulk works just as well, but it’s less expensive because it doesn’t have “acoustic” on the label

In addition to the socket sealers on outlets you can caulk any gaps between the outlet box and drywall. (Don’t put anything inside the outlet box)

The same thing can be done with can light fixtures if you’re on the top floor
