Another one-off suggestion, but Pumpkin Time fro the World/Inferno Friendship Society scratches that itch for me somehow: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=qqrF1BLWuK0

Obligatory mention of “Atheists don’t got no songs”: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=xmwAD7nHqaY

I had a similar question a while back and ended up with Voip.ms.

Hah. I tried doing some research about what this kind of drain is called, but I have no idea. I’ve never had a drain like this before, but I guess it must not be too rare?

In my case, the issue is that it starts to stink a lot. We had a plumber out a few years ago, and he opened that thing up and used a plunger to remove a ton of hair. He then suggested we wash it out every now and again, but I haven’t been able to do it for a while now, since I can’t get that thing open.

Not at all a silly question! I have tried, yes. Also, I’ve been able to remove it before, but the last time I put it in, I really jammed it in, I guess. There are no threads, so the turning is really just about generating force.

This looks very promising! Have you used something like this before? Most references I see online use this to remove the entire drain, not simply to turn the little thing inside. Is that accurate?

As St IGNUcious said, proprietary software is the sin. Using vi the penance.

With projects like these, I’m always torn between thinking that it’s cool it’s possible, and horror that someone somewhere will try to use this in production code.

I know I probably shouldn’t engage, but I really just wanted to spark a conversation. I find the trope interesting. I agree that my Good Place example isn’t that good, but still, no need to be so accusing.

I completely forgot to mention His Dark Materials! Hell doesn’t appear, but Heaven is portrayed as actively bad.

I would +1 this. I’m completely bald, and almost never leave the house without a hat, even in summer. It’s also important protection against sunburn :).

For something comfortable in the summer, I personally often go for brimmed hiking hats. A few that I like:

• Fjällräven Abisko Summer Hat
• Shelta Sun Hawk

I’m working on some outdated memories, but IIRC:

Germany allows dual citizenship now, but used to not allow it in most cases. In those cases, if you applied for German citizenship, you had to express that you were willing to give up your old citizenship. Once you were granted citizenship, you had a certain amount of time (two years?) to show a certificate that you renounced your old citizenship. If you didn’t, your German citizenship would be revoked.
