hey it's me black mold. thanks for running your window air conditioner all summer. whatever you do, do not regularly clean the removable filter. that's not necessary

you should also never ever unplug the air conditioner and stick a flashlight in the vent that blows air to see if we're in there. it's very bad, that place should not be checked

and whatever you do, if you've already made the mistake of unplugging it, don't remove it from the window for cleaning if possible. and whether it's possible to remove the unit or not, don't carefully disassemble the front panel, document where the screws go and plastic bits go, and open up the vent more to be able to get into it easily

as black mold, i'm an expert on this. you should heed my warnings: now, if you've somehow made the mistake of doing all of the above, you should not use warm water and dish soap to CLEAN the inside of the vent thoroughly. DON'T ever use a bottle brush to get into the hard to reach places. and certainly don't rinse and dry the cleaned area before carefully putting it back together

there's nothing wrong with us, black mold. we don't cause or exacerbate breathing conditions like asthma or other illnesses. it's cool, we're cool

furthermore, if you're capable of removing the window unit, DONT take a hose with the same soapy water and wash the portion of the window unit that sits outside the window and is therefore weatherproofed.

whatever you do, don't allow the air conditioner to dry before plugging it back in and turning it on again

and if you have a central air conditioner, you will definitely never ever consult a manual or sources online to perform a similar cleaning procedure on the cooling unit outside.

lastly, if you're physically unable to do the things we (the black mold) warned you not to do above, you should never ever ask someone to help you or hire a service to do it.

Also even if you do not have the time, space or ability to do some of the the things in the OP, definitely do not clean the coils (the awful sharp flat stacks of metal) with foaming coil cleaner. That removes the beneficial black mold (us) holding the unit together. It will be completely unsatisfying to watch the foam clean out the Super Beneficial Black Mold, Mildew, Hair, Lint & Dust Combo™ (that is not only a health hazard but making the unit less efficient at cooling necessary for air conditioner function) and leave the metal shiny.

It is a lot of elbow grease and definitely not just spraying a can and waiting. Especially do not use the ones that are self rinsing via the natural condensation of water around the coils where all you have to do is let the foam settle a couple hours before turning the unit back on. These foaming cleaners are also terrible to use on the removable air intake vent covers. You definitely do not just have to spray the opposite side of all the trapped shit on the plastic mesh and let the foam push it off. Also that stuff on the cover is great for you and your air conditioner.

Trust us. We, the mold, know much more about air conditioners than the people who make aerosol cans you can pick up for like $8 at home depot. Definitely do not do this a couple times a season.

I need a speedy and red hood miniseries where they go from begrudging allies to friends. I need them to have an in depth discussion on how ollie and bruce's mentorship affected them. They need to talk about how their childhoods affected them and come away with a mutual understanding. I need mia to beat up bruce

"Duke Thomas is too new" its been??? Over 10 years???? It takes you more than 10 years of appearances to care about a character?

You're a doctor. You've been taught the phrase "first, do no harm."

A patient comes in with a flesh eating bacteria that is rapidly spreading up their leg. The only way to save their life is to remove their leg.

So what do you do? To help the patient is to accept that you must also harm them.

You're a good doctor. Of course you remove the leg and save the patient's life, because trying to exercise a choice that will result in no harm is impossible where there are only two bad outcomes, but one is unquestionably worse.

This post is for for leftists in the US who still think either not voting or going with a protest vote in the next two major election cycles is an acceptable choice, when you know full well the Republican will cause more harm.

when you're at a point where you're publishing comics with worse, less substantial representation of black characters than you were in the 90s or 2000s, i feel like, and now maybe this is crazy, but i feel like maybe you should at least acknowledge that you have an issue

"how can m/f ships be good-" first of all through the power of bisexuality anything is possible so write that down. second of all if we start othering ships based on gender and nothing else we're no better than the opposition. third of all you need to watch more addams family

"Batman being abusive to his kids is so fundamentally wrong and makes him a one dimensional character"

So, fun fact about abusers, they often view their actions as coming from a place of love. Of knowing what's best. What's right. And, most applicable to Bruce and Jason specifically, control. Being abusive doesn't mean that Bruce doesn't love his kids. In fact most abusers do love their victims, but that doesn't make their actions any less harmful.

Bruce is a lot of things. He's a man who loves his kids, yes, but he's also abusive. He's great when interacting with other people's kids, yet terrible with his own.

And again, he does have his moments...

...but he's also the same man who did this.

Loving someone and abusing them aren't mutually exclusive things. Bruce being a vigilante and him being an abuser aren't mutually exclusive, nor does it make him a one dimensional character. If anything it adds dimension to his character, no matter how dark that may be.

I just love how much Duke loves his mom.

We rarely get male characters looking up to, idolising and openly loving female characters in this way. At most, mother's are used for comfort or grief scenes to give their backstory a little something.

But here, Elaine is a core part of Duke, not just because she birthed him, but because of her morals, the work she does and the way she always tries to make the world a better place. It's said and shown, again and again that Duke is the hero he is because of his mom.

It's her philosophy he uses, her methods, her empathy and compassion he adopts and her strength that shines through him.

He loves her so, so much and I think that's a beautiful thing.

Please, we need 100 Jason and Steph Robin stories before we get another Dick Robin story.

rice, like humans, is mostly water. thus, eating rice may be essentially equivalent to cannibalism. and as we know, cannibalism is frequently used as a metaphor or even stand-in for gay sex. therefore eating rice can be seen as the same as gay sex. in this essay I will
