Saturday Night

I opened the other day a can of worms in the bathroom. I wanted to touch paint the wall on top of the liner and i saw the silicon i put in there years ago had mold under. Why did i put it? Because it was cracked. Why didn't i call them? Because was part of dozens if not hundreds of problems. There should have been a handyman in here every day to fix something. Didn't do a good job or it's mission impossible. The joint between wall and liner. Every time you step in the tub the the liner moves a bit because it's fiberglass.

There is not much water flowing on top of the liner. Just tiny droplets that jump from your skin or off the main jet of the shower head. But that was enough to make the drywall wet and stinky and moldy. I removed all the silicon including the wet soft drywall and put some joint compound. However the smell that got released together with bad bacteria triggered an episode of nausea followed by diarrhea. Tried to air, but the air quality outside suddenly went bad. With no explanations in the media. So tonight i just took off to Spirit Mountain. Two hours of driving, several hours in there, breathing clean air. Cause after we cleared the neighborhood, there was no more smoke including at the casino.

It will not last. Maybe it will at bit more if i add some silicon at the joint before i paint over.

When i got back, air quality was better and i could air a bit. But all of a sudden that changed to a perceived @100 and had to close doors and windows. Went outside and measured with the monitor and in that moment the air cleared back again to 25 or something. So it's something very... local, so to say. But it smelled like wildfire. Opened the door and windows back again. Tonight was the first night i wasn't nauseated in a long time.

Before i left i tried and moved the handle in the picture and it moved. No, i don't think significant amounts of water is flowing by that  handle though it's not sealed. I thought behind that wall is the a space common with the other sides of it and tossed some baking soda though that hole before i left.     

Had this idea and stuck the endoscope camera through the hole of the handle. First thing i saw. This is no liner. There is no drywall panel behind it. It's a fiberglass shower wall that is one with the tub. It's the original construction. My tiny 6 mm camera though i left it ok (after i resoldered some of the wires) now it's got a scratch on it. Everything breaks in here, mostly by themselves). So all the stink i guess came from the joint between the fiberglass shower wall and the drywall that was not so dry anymore. Calcium sulfate getting wet and decomposing to sulfur or something. I believe this was one major source of me getting sick. I said it 1000 times. Normally it's not big deal and it goes out through the tiny continuous fan i put on top of the regular fan in the bathroom. But if the exhaust pipe has a leak, then it would go inside floor upstairs, which it happened. By the smell coming when stepping on it. From there and from the "direct source" in the bathroom it can be released inside "on demand",  that is like gassing someone a little bit, when necessary either by vibration with modified or broken exhausts or by walking hard on the "light" floor. Like when not behaving, posting all kidna s... etc., most efficient when eating.

 

One more thing about Spirit Mountain. I know it's all simulated like everything here, but from all the three casinos in the area, it's the only one we lose no matter what. Angela didn't want to go in there, i didn't want to go to Ilani. At Ilani she always recovers at the end. At Chinook Winds, from time to time she wins, though mostly looses. But to me Ilani is the ugliest place i've ever seen and Chinook Winds is 27 extra miles from Spirit Mountain.

Ilani looks like a humongous rectangular industrial facility and half of the people are Asian and the other half Hungarian actors. But i think at Spirit Mountain they can't bring the celebrities for shows as easy as at Lincoln City or Ilani. Ilani is at half hour of drive on I5 from Portland. Spirit Mountain is one hour. Maybe too many real people, like i thought they were tonight.

Anyways, the're trying to discourage us from getting there, for some reason. But my point is, and i know it for sure, they have control over the machines. If i look up in every casino i've been to, i see at any time 5-10 cameras. I presume if i see those they can see me. For what? I've never seen one single security problem in one of those going hundreds of times, for years.

Every time i hit the button and i don't pay attention or not ready to hit it again to stop the reels, they fill the screen with passing wilds, other winning combinations. When i pay attention and look at the screen and ready to stop them, nothing. This could happen only if they have some software and analyze your mood and reactions. How can this be called gambling?

And a piece of advice to casino goers. Don't go these days after the stimulus bill has been approved. Cause they know people are more likely to loose because they have or about to have those extra money.

If somebody should look into this type of AI enticing robbery called slots. Yes they should, but who? Nobody cares for the social category of people who need to go to casinos for a number of reasons, mainly for being old and lonely, if they get plainly robbed.

Maybe they should limit the number of cameras. Maybe they should have none pointing at you while you play. But still the machines can analyze your mood and disposition to lose only by the way you push the button to stop the reels. Maybe they shouldn't have those games at all. Push the button once and wait for them to stop. Pushing twice, or start and stop also reduces the time between hands and brings more money faster etc..Took a picture with the phone's camera Sunday evening.
