#call an electrician

[spankerella]

My grandpa did his own wiring for a garage he added to their house later. He was not an electrician. He also poured his own concrete for the new driveway and got cement poisoning, but that's a whole other story. He also added a fireplace to the house that he did put a chimney grate on that caused a bat problem later... also a whole other story.

When there a problem later after my aunt and uncle bought that house from my grandparents, I will never forget the look on the face of the electrician they called when he saw how that garage was wired. The confusion and horror.

Long shot, but does anyone have a good “understanding electricity for complete idiots who like not being electrocuted”? I’d like to understand solar power setups better, but this seems to involve understanding things like volts and ohms and resistance and other concepts that have historically made my eyes glaze over.

Free stuff is nice but I do have a small budget if you have a particularly excellent paid resource to recommend.

Please reblog for eventual access to Electrician Tumblr. Thank you! 🙏

As usual, my dad is making one thing worse while trying to make another thing better. This time it's costing me more money tho. Sigh.

Here I am, minding my own business drawin' as per the Usual when suddenly the outlet where my power bar is plugged in died! :) And I mean the outlet. Not the plug or the power bar, the OUTLET. EXCELLENT ! (sarcasm)

Thankfully I have my secondary setup (of which I am posting from Right Now) but my first setup is where all my current doodles, wips and finished art and such are................... 😔man

You ever have a customer with a legitimate problem but they're such an asshole that they extinguish the embers of empathy within you with their insolence?

Well we went from not having internet at home to not having power at home, so that’s very exciting. Everybody say “thank you giant tree that snapped in half”!

Being lesbian means being deeply upset you were too deep in fight-or-flight to really appreciate the woman firefighter who was part of the team to show up and make sure the radiator in your bedroom that just arced wasn't going to kill you in your sleep

I loved the latest chapter of Wishbone and scrambled to your other fic Resisting the Current to help while waiting for the next chapter.

I now have two ongoing fanfics I really wanna read the ending to and finally understand the pain of reading something that is 'Just that good youll wait a really long time for an update'.

Aaaaaverygoodwritingimliterallygonnadie.

Anyway have a nice day unless its a bad day in which case I hope itll get better 👍

Ahhhh thank you so much!!!! So happy you’re enjoying both fics, especially since they’re so different! My muse is parked pretty solidly in the Wishbone camp at the moment, but it’ll no doubt go back to Resisting the Current soon. I do miss being in the electrician’s head; it’s a much nicer, well-adjusted place to be compared to the Second Mage’s lol.
