Why Isn’t My Water Heater Working? Common Issues and Solutions

If your water heater has stopped producing hot water, is leaking, or just isn’t working as it should, you’re not alone. Water heaters are essential for comfortable living, but they don’t last forever. When issues arise, it’s crucial to know whether it’s time for a repair or a full replacement. Read on to explore common water heater problems, learn why they happen, and discover when it’s time to call a licensed << plumber near me >>.

Common Water Heater Problems and Their Solutions

1. Water Heater Not Producing Hot Water

One of the most frustrating issues is when your water heater is not producing hot water. Several reasons could cause this:

- Faulty Heating Elements: Electric water heaters have two heating elements. If one or both fail, your water won’t get hot.

- Thermostat Issues: Malfunctioning thermostats can prevent the water heater from reaching the desired temperature.

- Gas Supply Problems: In gas water heaters, a problem with the gas supply can result in no hot water. In many cases, a qualified, licensed plumber can help diagnose and repair these issues. Regular maintenance can also help you avoid cold water surprises.

��2. Water Heater Stopped Working Completely

A water heater that has stopped working altogether may need more attention. Here are possible reasons:

- Power Supply Problems: For electric models, check your circuit breaker. Sometimes, it’s a simple fix.

- Failed Gas Control Valve: This is a more complex repair, best handled by a professional plumber, especially if you smell gas or suspect a leak.

- Sediment Buildup: Hard water (common in many areas) can leave minerals inside the tank, reducing efficiency and causing a shutdown. When your water heater stops working, reach out to a nearby licensed plumber. Fixing issues promptly can prevent further damage to your plumbing system.

3. Water Heater is Leaking

If your water heater is leaking, you may be dealing with anything from a minor drip to a major flood risk. Key areas to check include:

- Tank Leak: This can mean that corrosion has compromised the integrity of the tank. If this is the case, you’ll likely need to install a new water heater.

- Temperature & Pressure Relief Valve: If this valve malfunctions, it can lead to leaks. It’s critical for safety, so don’t ignore this problem.

- Pipe Connections: Loose or worn connections can cause leaks. Our plumber can tighten or replace these connections to stop the leak. Leaking water heaters require immediate attention. Ignoring them can lead to more extensive plumbing repairs and higher utility bills.

 When Do You Need a New Water Heater?

Water heaters don’t last forever. Even with the best care, most units have a lifespan of 8-12 years.

Here are some signs that it may be time for a water heater replacement:

- Frequent Repairs: If you’re calling the plumber every few months, a new unit may be more cost-effective.

- Rusty or Murky Water: Discolored water can indicate corrosion inside the tank.

- Age of the Water Heater: Once your water heater reaches 10 years or more, it’s wise to budget for a replacement.

- Inefficiency: If your water heater is driving up energy bills, newer models can provide better efficiency and savings. Installing a new water heater isn’t just about resolving current issues. Modern water heaters are more energy-efficient and can lower your energy bills over time. An experienced plumber from Emergency Plumbing can help you choose the best option for your home and budget.

Types of Water Heaters for Replacement

When it's time to install a new water heater, consider these types:

- Traditional Tank Water Heaters : These are the most common models. They heat water and store it in a large tank, but they can be less energy-efficient.

- Tankless Water Heaters: These heat water on demand, saving space and energy. They’re a popular choice for homes where efficiency is key.

- Heat Pump Water Heaters: Using heat from the air, these systems are highly efficient, especially in warmer climates. Each water heater type has its pros and cons, and our licensed plumber can help guide you toward the best choice for your household needs.

How a Licensed Plumber Can Help

When water heater issues arise, finding a “plumber near me” is essential for peace of mind and efficient service.

Here’s how a licensed plumber from Emergency Plumbing can help:

- Accurate Diagnosis: With expertise in plumbing systems, a licensed plumber can quickly identify the root cause of your water heater issues.

- Efficient Repairs: From thermostat adjustments to replacing heating elements, experienced plumbers provide fast, effective solutions.

- Safe Installation: Water heaters involve gas lines, electrical wiring, and pressurized water systems. Our professional plumber ensures your installation meets safety codes and standards. Hiring a licensed plumber isn’t just about fixing the issue at hand—it’s about protecting your home and family. Emergency Plumbing professionals are always around and ready to help.

The Importance of Routine Water Heater Maintenance

Routine maintenance helps extend the life of your water heater, especially in areas with hard water.

Here are a few maintenance tips:

-Annual Flushes: Flushing your water heater removes sediment buildup, which can damage the tank and heating elements.

- Anode Rod Replacement: The anode rod prevents rust in the tank. Replacing it every few years can extend the life of your unit.

- Check the Pressure Relief Valve: This valve prevents dangerous pressure buildup. Our  licensed plumber  from Emergency Plumbing can check and replace it as needed. Maintaining your water heater regularly can prevent costly repairs or early replacement.

HEAR ME OUTTTTT YALL

Logan's bones are made of metal, right? And while adamantium is a fictional element, metals tend to follow a set of properties.

One primary property is that the majority of metals are conductors. This is reinforced in The Wolverine movie wherein the adamantium sword conducts heat extremely well to be able to cut off Logan's claws.

Therefore, Logan's bones are conductors (for both heat and electricity).

Most human bones (like Wade's) are insulators. This makes bones more resistant to electricity as compared to the rest of the human body, which is an electrical conductor because it's composed of water and ions.

I know the dark matter is different, but from how we see it flow through the veins and transfer we can assume it's conducted as well.

THEREFORE, THE REASON LOGAN WAS ABLE TO ALMOST INSTANTLY FORGE THE CONNECTION WAS BECAUSE HIS BONES CONDUCTED THE ELECTRICITY EASILY. AND IT WOULD ALSO MEAN THAT HIS PAIN WOULD BE SIGNIFICANTLY WORSE THAN WADE'S. BECAUSE HE LITERALLY FEELS IT RUNNING THROUGH HIS BONES, JITTERING HIS VERY SKELETON?? BUT HE STILL KEPT HOLDING ON JUST TO SAVE WADE.

Also, this means that his bones would retain heat. If he sits in front of the fire and gets heated up, he'd feel it in his bones. This means the human heater headcanons are 100% true, because he'd literally be hot metal wrapping around Wade if he's kept warm.

Inversely, however, this would mean his bones become cold due to a lack of heat. Metal oftentimes expands in hot conditions and contracts in cold conditions (which is why they leave gaps between train tracks to accommodate for this without them breaking).

So Logan would 100% get aches with cold weather because even if his body was more resistant, he can feel the chill in his bones and how they don't sit quite right and everything is too stiff and doesn't fit. (And Wade would need to heat him up instead because of this.)

Plus his thermal regulation would be compromised because it seeps into his bones instead of just his flesh. Imagine you get in front of a fan and your skin feels cool but your bones are hot. Logan would be temperature-sensitive, but he'd try to hide it because he's used to it (having lived in the mountains for years) and doesn't know what to do. (And so when Wade comes along and cares and tries to help him regulate, he nearly chokes up because it's so much easier to cope.)

Every Morning After

(cw pain, blood)

She left you with almost nothing last night; you clung to her as long as she let you, but as a shadow leaves after the setting sun, she evacuated your quarters mere moments after piercing your neck and drinking until she was full and sick of your blood. You called out to her by name, over and over and over, words falling onto the deaf nothing of the world outside. You cursed the quiet, empty space beside you in bed, the one you kept in case she ever wanted to stay through the night with you. Not that she ever would. Instead, she disappeared for days, sometimes weeks at a time, and you'd never get a notice she'd be coming around.

The only thing able to rouse you from your painful respite is the aching memory in your neck. She was never far from your thoughts, but when you move and feel that searing passion, everything floods back. You forget yourself. For just a moment, you forget your pain; the association itself breeds momentarily endless pleasure as if you were still feeding her. You want to sustain her. You want to support her.

And that surge is enough to get you out of bed. Standing leaves your mind swirling and your legs shaking, and you reach for the cane beside your door. Your hand shakes as you grasp at it, and you just barely nudge it to clatter onto the floor. You do bend a handful of your vertebrae to pick it up, but the instant vertigo tells you that if you finish that lean, you won't be getting back up again. So you let it lie there, useless as your own legs. You swear she drank more than normal. You also know your own memory of every feeding is beyond hazy, and that she gets to do whatever she wants. She also gets to tell you to do anything; if you don't care for yourself, she won't come back. When that beautiful pain doesn't drag you out of bed, that ultimatum certainly will. You need to see her again as bad as she needs blood. You tell yourself it's equal, that she needs you as much as you need her - it makes you feel better, even if it's completely untrue.

You stagger to the kitchen, the countertops there your only support. The kettle feels so heavy you nearly drop it, but you manage to get it under the sink with a clatter - you know its base isn't able to shatter the ceramic plates you always leave over night. You've done it enough times. You grab the lever of the faucet, your blood pounding and rushing from your neck to your arm, and you can't close your hand around it. You see stars as you force it, your fingers closing with agonizing tension like forcing shut the jaws of a cardboard wrench.

Lifting it while it's even a bit full of water is nearly impossible. You rest it in an open palm and brace it against your chest, both of your hands rocking so much you spill some from the spout onto your bloodstained shirt. You do make it to the heating element, though, and force the switch on. You heave your breath, wishing you could lie down beside her, her firm touch the only thing keeping you alive.

She left a new box of tea right beside the heater, unopened. On the front was a sticky note, one taken from your own desk, with a little heart drawn on it.

"Enjoy every morning for me, Sunny.

-M"

You feel part of yourself trying to hate your new name, but it is impossibly weak. You have no idea what's in the tea - the note covers the ingredients. It's not like it matters; you would drink it if it were nothing but a bunch of hemlock if it meant another night with her. The box is difficult to open - she requires you keep your nails long, so you don't want to risk breaking them trying to pry the box apart. You have to use a knife, balanced so shoddily between your fingers it would've slipped without the friction of your fingerprints. You take one of the teabags - they were clearly made by M herself - and put it in your lightest mug.

When you pour the hot water in, you spill plenty onto the counters and some on the floor. You pretend you didn't singe your foot fucking it up. The water goes a deep brownish red as the mug fills, and the whole room smells fruity and dark like a chocolate strawberry. When you sip it… It tastes like her. It makes you feel like you can slump back, so you do, right onto the couch without a second thought. The sudden motion makes you spill more onto your bare leg, but another sip drains your focus into the liquid and before long, it's like you are made new. You swear that you can feel her near you, her arms wrapping around your midsection to bring your lower into your seat, her lips trailing sweet kisses from your cheeks to your neck, her hands down to your hips and up across your ribs…

But when you turn, you are as alone as you were minutes after she bit you. As alone as you were when you woke up this morning. It wasn't her bringing you into your comfort; it was your pain, the only companion you truly had, the only thing she would ever leave you with.

If Swiss and Dew were to cuddle would Dew be like a personal heater? (Dew Being a fire ghoul)

i’m crying real tears i swear i had an old doodle of this somewhere but i cannot find it so i will talk abt it instead ☝️

swiss can handle a lot of heat, he’s part fire after all and it’s one of his more present elements that he has more control over. dew loves that shit. he burns hot as coals on top of swiss and swiss is just like hehe :3 warm and it makes dew raise his eyebrow so high like wtf. montage of dew doing fire ghoul experiments on swiss until aether has to stop them because No Dew, You May Not Put Swiss’ Head In The Air Fryer.

it's convenient for full moons when swiss’ water in him makes him run a little colder, and there’s a bit (a lot) of steam in the room from the temperature clash. queue a comment from one of them about how it looks like they just hot boxed the place.

another reason why dew is very vulnerable around swiss is because he literally and figuratively can handle dew's heat. dew on fire ? swiss can carry him out to the lake and let him boil in there until he cools (hehe) down. swiss can also be unbothered as hell when dew gets a bit nastier and says things he doesn't mean. swiss has tough skin (via his older sister) but still its always talked about and ends with an "i'm sorry" on dew's behalf and a "prove it 😼" from fuckhead swiss. then they kiss with tongue or smth idk i don’t support them

cuddles are a favorite for them esp with dew’s tendency to knead and purr and groom when he’s all happy like that. he’s like a ford F-150 engine with how loud he is and how hot he runs when he’s being smothered by swiss. if he’s not a rubber duck under a hydrologic press he gets pissy. and oh how convenient it is that swiss is bigger in the colder seasons and needs a heating pad (dew does the most evil grin and acts like he’s freezing)

and of course, after care. when dew is cooling down and the sheets are soaked and singed, swiss likes to lick him clean with a cold tongue to help him cool down. likes to blow cold air on his neck and behind his ears and on his stomach and his hands. dew gets fuckin dizzy from the rush of the temperature clash and tells swiss to run them a damn bath already. swiss tries not to get too caught up on dew wanting him to run Them, the two of them, together, a bath. he kicks his feet and giggles like Okay baby ^___^ !!!

tldr idgaf about these guys they’re cringe and i’m glad phantom home wrecked them

Dewdrop elemental transformation angst.

(TW: Abuse + Descriptions of violence)

Dewdrop curled up in pain, searing heaters surrounding him. He can feel his gills sear and burn off, the pain too much for him. He can barely keep his eyes open as he thrashes against his restraints. He wants to scream, but is muzzled to an uncomfortable extent. He was once so strong, a cocky water ghoul who had so much ahead of him. The clergy had deteriorated him into a whimpering, silent crying mess on the floor.

Hot sticks were poked into his back, his body being forced to adjust the heat. The ministry has always viewed ghouls as subhuman, they can withstand anything. They're like wild animals with thick skin, they can take it, they can handle it. They're monsters, demons without feeling or sensitivity.

Men would come in and kick him along his spine just for the hell of it. Pain makes a fire ghoul, fire is a symbol of destruction and rebirth. He was being reborn, not abused. That's all this was, surely. Dew hacked and coughed as they kicked at his chest, knocking the wind out of him as hot liquid pooled in his eyes. By now, the transformation has begun slowly taking place. The tears coming from his eyes burned like magma.

He felt so hot all the time. He begged for water, dehydrated. His skin clung to his bones weakly as though he had been starved of nutrition for days. His skin seared uncomfortably, he could hardly sleep. He always craved air, he would wake up drenched in sweat and gasping. Truly a fish out of water, the people behind the stained glass joked. They mocked his suffering as they watched the display of horrific mutilation.

Finally, when it was all over with, he was no longer himself. His eyes blinked open, the heat still burning his skin. He was used to it now. The skin once adorned with a beautiful aqua tint was now a light shade of red. His eyes burned bright yellow and smoke bellowed out of his mouth when he opened it.

The transformation had worked. But he didn't feel like he had transformed. He felt like someone different.

Dear Hrodwyn

[843 words; a Lancer RPG fic]

06 SEP 5010u

Dear Hrodwyn Vorobyev, what to say to you? You have her eyes You have your father's name When you came into the world you cried And it broke my heart

Here, on this ice planet in its lonely orbit, life thrived.

As the sun's first rays carve peaks out of darkness, see how bones of copper and steel are nestled between treacherous mountains. See how they are buried beneath white snow and frozen in azure depths, weathered by the elements but preserved by solitude.

Quickly, before the sun parts with the land again, look how this metal skeleton twists along the planet's veins, the great frozen river. The river streaks blue and green across white, and with the sun's warm blessing, it brings forth minerals and algae, water and valour.

From afar, this planet is death. But closer, the river carves a path through the white void. The river carves life.

I'm dedicating every day to you Domestic life was never quite my style When you smile You knock me out, I fall apart And I thought I was so smart

Here, on the fringes of exploration and expansion, life thrived.

No one recalls when the first colonies arrived, but the winds remember what they came here for. It was not for the bones of metal, but it was for what the bones once were. It was for the red-hot core of energy housed within, the dying heart of a star.

See how greed tries to dig its venomous claws into the stars. See how, in greed's self-declared war against itself, it tears apart scraps of alloys, weapons of titanium, and frames of carbon fibre. It is a hunger that ravages; it is a hunger that tears its stomach inside out to house the mass graves of the first colonies.

It all ends like how it all first began: with silence. Life, innocent in ignorance, crawls out of the graves to start anew. No human remembers what they came here for.

The wind warns them in whispers, but it cannot control who listens.

You will come of age with our young nation We'll bleed and fight for you We'll make it right for you If we lay a strong enough foundation We'll pass it on to you We'll give the world to you And you'll blow us all away Someday, someday

Here, on footsteps that follow the river eternally, live thrives.

From dust, tiny specks come together like ants to form new colonies. Though humans have greed, they also have resilience, intelligence, and creativity. Observe how they dig through the snow with their own hands, wrangle with tooth and leather and stone, and explore for years to reignite the machines that first brought them here. Watch as they create tools with the guidance of ghosts. Watch as they teach themselves to walk, to run, and to fly once again.

What was first a single colony in the beginning has now scattered into multiple colonies -- some big, some small. The biggest colonies were grown on the secret to reawakening cores. Their strength fuels machines, their warmth radiates from hearths, and their light is a beacon from which cities are built around. But though their light welcomes all to hide from the frigid cold and dark days, the secret of the cores remain tightly grasped within the palms of handpicked engineers.

Cores are scarce and so are the cities that followed. In their wake, smaller settlements are nurtured around other sources of life: the geothermal energy volcanoes bring, the lamps and heaters machines bring, and the fresh food and water rivers bring. Trade routes are forged between these settlements, and when the first port to the rest of the galaxy opens in the largest city, the settlements begin crossing paths more and more like constellations across the ink-black sky.

But some colonies do not settle. Some continue to fare across the white void as their ancestors once did. Forever walking, forever migrating, these nomadic colonies follow the planet's orbit as they seek the longest days of warmth, the longest hours of light. The sun is their beacon, their core, so these colonies continue to follow it: living off the river that melts and freezes and melts, marching across the planet's equator back to where they began again and again and again. ⠀ Nothing changes from this never ending track. In these nomadic colonies, the scouts go scout for shelter and danger on foot, the hunters go hunt the feared and the fearing on machines, and the rest of the farers follow the path cleared through the snow.

Nothing changes until a settler hears the song of a farer.

Nothing changes until the settler, with her wit and her machine, joins the farer on his eternal voyage; and the farer too embarks on a new eternal voyage of walking in the settler's shoes and seeing through the stars in her eyes.

With time comes love, and with love comes life.

Yeah, you'll blow us all away Someday, someday...

Life learns, life changes, and life thrives.

I wrote this all the way back in 22 May this year, and here it finally is with some light editing! (Don't mind the grammar errors, it is late and I am tired lmao). I ported the Birdfam yet again into Lancer, in which Gavrill Vorobyev is, yet AGAIN, my PC! (I just really want him on a Swallowtail idk I think it fits him well) The biggest differences here is that he's 21 instead of 41, his wife Leyna is alive, his kid Hrodwyn was just born (coincidnetally, the campaign kicks off a day after), and he doesn't have thirty four mental illnesses.

I do not take credit for this worldbuilding! This planet is directly ripped off of the planet the Birdfam originally came from, which was from a 4e campaign. So it's my GM who came up with this; all I did was write about it here.

(i'm gonna throw in all the hamilton references i want FIGHT ME)

Just thought I’d dump this to give people a better understanding of my writing! This was really inspired by @/turbulentscrawl (I don’t know if tagging is fine with them, but I’ll link the original work below!!) after this I’ll get back to requests!

Oletus manor - General Headcanons

｡☆✼★━━━━━━━━━━━━★✼☆｡

Tw : none

Extra : I’ve been doing a lot of fun writing on Freeform topics recently, and have gotten some fics to 3,000 words. Perhaps I’ll share them here someday.

｡☆✼★━━━━━━━━━━━━★✼☆｡

|🩷| The size of the manor can be quite shocking to people. It appears large on the outside, yes, but not large enough to house over 40 residents. (I think the total is currently 43 at the time I’m writing this?). Inside, there’s some sort of reality warping magic going on (for lack of a better word) that allows the manor to extend as much as it may need to inside without it expanding on the outside.

|🩷| Hunters and survivors do reside in the same manor, but are divided into two separate wings.

|🩷| The east side houses the Survivors rooms, a gathering area, kitchen and dining area among other necessities. This side of the manor is significantly larger and more tedious to get around due to the amount of residents.

|🩷| The hunters side of the manor has all the same basic elements with a smaller size. Though they may have slightly larger rooms.

|🩷| Dual faction residents can choose between which side of the manor they would prefer their room to be in.

|🩷| In the center of the manor is a large shared space, including yet another kitchen and dining area, a ballroom, the garden and a large gathering area among others.

|🩷| Outside of matches, the survivors do not have their doll like appearances. The reason they look like dolls in matches is simply because it’s easier to repair a doll than to heal serious injuries on a person.

|🩷| I’d like to say that the hunters appear more human outside of matches. There’s no real reason for this, other than the fact that I doubt anybody is going to date a giant talking lizard (.. if you are I’m a little afraid /j)

|🩷| There are long periods of time without matches, sometimes there’s matches daily, while other times the residents can go weeks or even months without matches. They’re randomly selected as well.

|🩷| The manor has people from varying times in history, and each residents room reflects the time they were alive. Say there was a modern era resident, they may have electronics in their room! The rest of the manor could theoretically be updated with more modern items as well, but any updates are usually kept to the kitchens and bathrooms. (Televisions may scare the older era residents too much.. Ithaqua)

|🩷| The showers are heated by several water heaters but are unfortunately not unlimited. Because of this, there are instances where the hot water will run out, and arguments ensue.

|🩷| The weather is typically predictable and can provide the residents a sense of time they may otherwise lose track of. There is no threat of serious weather like tornadoes, but the storms can still get quite violent and unnerving for some of the residents.

|🩷| Injuries sustained during matches do not carry over to the survivors or hunters real bodies (hence the dolls!!) but all the pain that they feel during the matches is very much real.

|🩷| Unfortunately, the manor residents do get sick from time to time. This mostly occurs when a new resident joins the manor, as most peoples immunity cannot protect them from the diseases. But they are unable to die from them.

|🩷| Survivors and hunters can access the match locations when matches are not taking place (for example they can play at moonlight river park)

|🩷| Since everyone is going to stuck together for an indefinite amount of time, relationships do form.

|🩷| Survivors who had health conditions or disabilities before coming to the manor do still suffer from them in the manor (but in cases like Joseph’s, the mental effects of mercury poisoning are not as prominent, and they are left with the physical effects like tremors, weakness, ect.)

|🩷| Some npcs are also in the manor (the ones that lore has confirmed, like miles, or the ones that have been dragged in through costumes like Nathaniel. Im really desperate)

|🩷| Food items and other necessities such as hygiene products are refilled or restocked whenever needed.

|🩷| Each room comes with decorations of the residents preference, and also has a small bathroom with a shower or bath inside. This way, people don’t have to share showers.

|🩷| Wardrobes are not limited to just in game skins, but they are included in them. Casual and sleepwear is also included!

|🩷| Skins from other franchises are debatable. If the skin is still the original character (like Joseph and Emma’s hello Kitty crossover skins), then they are part of the residents wardrobe. But if they’re another character outside of the manor residents, it is only cosmetic (same goes with truth and inference)

|🩷| Same goes for skins from other universes, like Coa or Morningstar essences, for example. Once costumes where a character is reverted back to childhood don’t translate either, like blind spot. But if they’re adults in their once skins, they can translate and have effects on the mental status of the wearer, such as Joseph’s hangover skin

….THIS WAS SO LONG- but I do enjoy dumping Headcanons down, and maybe you all will enjoy them as well.

Some Maycross for y'all(especially @sergeantgoggles and the folks who donated to the hot water heater fund)

Hot water heater update. Everyone's donations weren't enough to get a new water heater, but It was enough to buy parts to extend the hot water heater a little longer for us to get together funds to buy a new one.

I want to thank everyone who donated. You all were amazing and didn't ask for anything in return. I would have been more then happy to draw for yall, but not having to push out comissions allowed me more space to grieve my cat and to figure out a work around with my SO(basicly new gaskets, new heating elements and a lot of little weird parts I'm not 100% what they did but now we get mostly hot water)

Stay By My Side Ep 8 soft D/s elements

For those that haven't seen my other meta for this show, it can be found here.

I love that we are recapping the BDSM moment, just saying. Um... Jiang Chi needs to practice his leading the blind skills. Poor Bu Xia. Ah, but the love language of food. Ha! The cake scene is too adorable for words. Damn it! Bu Xia it's too early in the show to have me all up in my feels. That's something you gotta ease a girl into.

The more I look at the cake, the more I feel like whining cause it looks better than anything I can do. Damn, but Jiang Chi went out of his way to find out about Bu Xia. I'm married, and I'm feeling very single right now.

"I'm a bit boring and stubborn, but when I care about someone, I will give it my all." Which is sweet and makes all of us feel gooey, including Bu Xia until he continues to say that he needs Bu Xia to tell him if there is a promise because he essentially doesn't like to be lied to. Causing Bu Xia to feel further guilty.

Sis is like, who are you again? I will say that him not knowing if Bu Xia had brought up their relationship. Then proceeding to tell his sister, is not cool. Sister trying to out scare a Dom, but she's not a Dom. It looks funny.

Ahahah, "Aren't you the heater guy?" Jiang Chi is like, "heater guy?" And sis is like, oh shit.

We got guilty feeling Bu Xia who is now doubting his worth. Poor baby. And the basket ball team is not helping. I love these bitches, I really do, but damn guys. Read the fucking room. They make a very poor comeback, but at least they tried.

This episode is brought to you by miscommunication.

Commands though sticky notes. I like it. I'm talking about the take care of yourself. The other stuff is because Bu Xia is forgetful.

Bless it. Boy, just doesn't want to stand in your way. Oh, Shit! Sister spilled the goods. This is a hot mess.

This is a hard one because a lot of people will see a missed opportunity. The thing is, some opportunities will come back around, while others won't. Besides, someone who is a dominant personality that found their person to care for. They would never be happy somewhere they were worrying about them. "I want to be there for you because I care, but you think it's not worth it."

Damn, these two are spicy. And I say that as a spicy bitch myself. This episode is really brought to us by miscommunication.

This idiot sitting on the bridge and of course the basket ball team sees him. They freak out about him jumping. Lawd, the heights from which I've jumped into a body of water. That's not that far, guys. Is there something I'm missing? Like can, he not swim?

Previews got me wondering if these bitches be switches. I like a good switch story. Bring it! 💜💜💜

Gerard Way solo interview - My Chemical Romance [INROCK (January 2011)]

Coming to Japan in February! Gerard’s solo interview.

“The time for being obsessed with theatrics and pyro has passed.”

Gerard Way/My Chemical Romance INTERVIEW: YUKO KATO PHOTOS BY KAORI SUZUKI

Musicians, painters… Artists of all kinds like to live in Silver Lake. Gerard designated Home, a folksy restaurant near his home, as the interview location. I really appreciated the fact that he gave up almost half a day of his time for INROCK in between his promo activities, which lasted from 9:30am to midnight. But when Gerard came in, he said, "Thank you for coming." He is now much slimmer than when he first came to Japan and, as expected, has vivid red hair. However, as it was just after a long European tour, the root 3 cm of his hair was showing the colour at the base. But, he said, "Inside, I've hardly changed at all."

You've just finished a UK tour. Fans have been waiting for 36 hours in front of the venue? Gerard Way (vo.) : Yes, they were in front of the venue all night. I mean, people have been waiting for us for four years now, for the album and for the shows. I think we kept them waiting for a UK stage for about two and a half years. So they waited outside, and the show was sold out, and it was just amazing.

“I used to be able to offer hot chocolate to the kids waiting in line, but that kind of thing is not possible these days.”

The Apollo (Victoria Theatre) can only hold 3500 people. Wouldn't a bigger venue have been better? Gerard: First and foremost, we wanted to start with a full house. I thought it would be better to start with a full house in a smaller place and come back again, rather than having a bigger space and leaving empty seats and never being able to come back. Anyway, we wanted to see the fans so much that we decided to do a tight, intimate show and come back.

But 36 hours! Gerard: 36 hours (laughs) in the rain, with the typical London weather.

Did you go and say hello to everyone waiting for you? Gerard: It was raining and I couldn't do it because I was doing promotional activities the whole time. I had to go to the radio station, appear on the show, and go back on stage, so it was a bit of a mad dash. When we used to travel around in a light van, I used to go and say "hello" to people, and even when we changed to a big van, we made hot chocolate and handed it out if we had a coffee maker or hot water heater. But that kind of thing is not possible these days.

I always thought My Chemical Romance fans in Japan were the hottest, but I'm not so sure anymore (laughs). Gerard: What do you think? (laughs happily).

The last time you did The Black Parade tour, it was in two parts, and in one part you played the album in order, and in the second part you played songs from the past, but this time you've completely mixed it up. What's the concept behind the tour like? Gerard: This time, we didn't want to be like "I have to do this" with the songs, like we have to play them in the order of the songs from the album "Danger Days" or we have to appear as characters from those songs, but we just want to do it as a band. So we mixed it up nicely, and thanks to James (Dewees, touring member/keys.), we added digital elements to previous songs like "The Ghost of You" and it's a very different and nice feeling. It's cool to do a lot of stuff, but I think we're past the point of using a lot of different theatrics and pyro and stuff. I'm going to get into lighting and use LEDs and things like that to make it futuristic if I can, but it's not going to stop being exciting.

Futuristic! Gerard: Yeah, or cinematic.

Cinematic. Sounds interesting! When I saw The Black Parade Tour, I was upstairs and far from the stage, but it was still hot thanks to the pyro. Gerard: Yeah, the sparks were flying all the way to the back row (laughs).

Did you play some songs from the new album on the European tour? Gerard: Yeah, we played about six or seven songs. Not all of them in one night, we just picked the ones we were in the mood for and of course we played "Na Na Na" too.

"Na Na Na" was the opening song of the show, wasn't it? Gerard: Yeah, then "Planetary (GO!)", "DESTROYA", "The Only Hope for Me Is You", "The Kids From Yesterday", so that makes about 5-6 songs.

Did you try out new songs in front of a real audience on the tour? Gerard: We didn't want to try them out, we just wanted to play them. We really love "Danger Days" so we just wanted to play the songs, and it's a really special album for us.

What was the reaction? Gerard: Every song was great. "Na Na Na" was a big hit, of course, and "The Only Hope" was a big hit when we played it for the first time, and "Planetary" was also very well received, even though it wasn't released to the media and people had never heard it before. We also played a new song, "The Kids From Yesterday", as an encore just because we wanted to, which we hadn't done before. We knew it wasn't good to play a song that people didn't know in the encore, but we said, "Why not, let's do what we want to do!"

People immediately liked it even when they heard it for the first time. Gerard: Exactly! With "The Black Parade", when we played it live before it was released, the reaction wasn't great. Of course people knew about the single, but that was it. This time, the atmosphere was similar to "Sweet Revenge", because the moment we played "I'm Not Okay" and "Helena", people went crazy.

But your European fans are so strong that they fell in love with your music and accepted it right away. Gerard: Yeah, so basically, it's an unnecessary worry, but you don't necessarily expect people to accept something new. It's more like we've got a very established fan base, so they'll either go along with the new stuff or they won't. We always put out something really different, and that's what people expect from us, but they don't usually respond that well to songs they haven't heard before. You can't get immediately excited about something that hasn't been released to the media right away. I've heard a lot of other bands play new songs and no one follows them.

“In my art studio I just stick things on the walls and draw. I do it by myself mostly.”

Is it true that Kerrang! magazine did five different covers for My Chemical Romance? Gerard: Yes, it's true. One for each band member in their video costumes and one for the band as a whole.

You're hoping that every fan will buy five copies of each! Gerard: (laughs) Well, yeah. I like to do whatever I can, and there aren't many bands that can do that. I think we put a lot of effort into the art and aesthetics and we did a great job. Actually, we asked them if they would like to do it, and we came up with the idea of ​​doing covers for each of us for "The Black Parade". We all have strong personalities and we knew that we could sell the magazine on our own. It's always worked out that way.

After the release of the album, you will start touring the USA, right? Gerard: Yes, that's right. We'll do a series of radio shows and then take a break for Christmas and then go to Japan, I think…? Then we'll tour Europe again in the New Year, and then the US.

What kind of show should we expect from this album? Is it going to be conceptual or something completely different? Gerard: I don't think it's conceptual. It depends on the size of the place and how you define "conceptual". But the venue in Tokyo was definitely huge, so come up with something exciting. We'll use videos and LEDs to give the audience a sense of our world, and this time it's all about colour, so we'll make a big production.

I read somewhere that this time you were in charge of the whole art direction of the album and the band? Gerard: Yes. I did a lot of direction for "The Black Parade". But this time it was more of a collaboration and we were able to do a lot of things. There were so many things to do, like the band's costumes, the guns, the cars, the bad guys, the company, the girls, and so on, so we made it a collaboration. We looked for people we could trust and worked on it as a collaboration. We set up an art department, a graphic design department, and an art studio, so it was a big undertaking, so there's a lot to see.

Who are your creative partners in the band? Gerard: Everyone. Everyone in the band is my creative partner, so I get advice, ideas and help when I'm stuck. We ask each other what our favourite colour is and we make a gun for each of us in that colour. For costumes, I ask, "What do you want to make?" and we sit down and sketch and think about it. My wife Lindsay (Mindless Self Indulgence, b.) is another creative partner, and I also get a lot of advice from comic book artist Grant Morrison.

You just mentioned that Lindsay is one of your creative partners, but does she also participate in the band's activities? Gerard: No, but she's my wife. She gives me advice as a friend, as a fellow artist, and as a wife, and I give her advice on her projects as well.

We've been shown pictures of your art studio, what do you do there? Gerard: I draw stuff, I stick stuff on the walls, I draw them and look at them, I come up with slogans for the whole thing, and so on. I do a lot of painting anyway, and then there are all sorts of masks and spray paint and things I'm making up and inspirational stuff lying around.

Do you work alone there? Gerard: Not all the time, but most of the time I'm alone, as it's the closest to my house. Some days I don't need to go to the music studio, I just go to the art studio while everyone else is working on music.

You have an art studio, but you don't have your own music studio? Gerard: No. Just my art studio.

That's interesting. Gerard: Right? Of course music is important to me, but I prefer to make music in a producer's studio. Even if I had a studio at home, I don't think I'd use it.

Translator's Note: When the journalist mentioned the Kerrang! special covers, I had no idea about its existence at all. But given that INROCK is generally reliable, I did a brief Google search and found proof of its existence. It was released some time around October 2010.

Please do support me with my Ko-fi! ☕

Well, great. Just great.

See, we have this issue for a good year now, that the heater in the basement for our side of the house does break every now and again. Like, in 2023 we had technicians here to fix it a total of six times. So far it never was that big of a problem, because for the most part ist just meant, we didn't have hot water. Because, you know, climate change, it was never proper cold when it happened and such.

Now it is -6°C outside and guess what just broke again? Right, that fucking heating element.

The technicians have been saying since last summer that the landlord should have the stupid thing changed out for a new one, because it will just keep breaking. But the landlord does not wanna hear it.

The technicians also said, that if they had just changed out the element, it would have cost them about 60% of what they have paid by now.

But fuck it. The technician said, too, that if it breaks the next time he will just change it out and argue about it with the landlord later.

But gods darn it, I am sooooo fucking cold.
