Troy's not wrong but it's not really about things looking good online. People have been buying junk in stores forever too, it's just easier to see it now.

Wait, 80 tiles in 10 minutes? That is crazy talk. I mean, I believe you but my brain is having a hard time processing that kind of speed. I remember my first tile job I spent a whole afternoon just fighting with the wet saw, the water kept splashing my pants and I had to keep stopping to wipe the blade. A snap cutter sounds like a dream for that kind of work, especially for simple subway tile like you said. It makes me wonder why I've been dragging my wet saw out for every small job like a sucker. But 80 tiles in 10 minutes, that's like a whole bathroom wall done in a coffee break, that's insane.

Paper tape was a TOTAL game changer for me in my own basement last year. That place gets damp like crazy and the mesh tape kept bubbling up no matter how careful I was with the mud. Switched to paper and never looked back - it pulled tight and stayed flat even after a few humid weeks. Took me a bit longer too at first but the finish was SO much cleaner. St. Louis summers are brutal for basements so you made a smart move.

Oh man, I went through the same thing a few years ago... bought a beautiful little cattleya on a whim and tried mounting it on a cedar shingle. It actually did great for about six months, roots gripping the wood and everything, but then my cat knocked it off the shelf and that was the end of that. These days I just use clear plastic pots with extra holes and a super chunky bark mix, lets me see the roots and they dry out fast enough that I don't kill them with love. I've got three phals in pots now that have been reblooming for years, so pots are totally fine for normal homes where you can't control the humidity like a greenhouse.

Public property" is exactly right, @ward.anna. It's not even funny how many places that password might still be active. @aaron880 hit the nail on the head too - you have to hunt them down like a detective. What I'd suggest is actually pulling up your browser's saved passwords list (if you've let it save any) and cross-referencing with the password manager's breach report. Then go through your email inbox for old account creation emails from like 2016 onward. It's a pain, but I've done it before with an old gaming account password that kept showing up in breaches. Make a list, change them one by one, and use unique passwords going forward - even if you store them in a notebook, beats having one key that opens everything.
