When I bought my house I inherited a washer and dryer that was used by an apartment complex. The dryer has been working great, but the washer has been violently shaking in the spin cycle. So far I have :
Checked to make sure the unit is level
Reset the washer with the Konami code
Power cycled the unit
Cleaned the inside
Replaced the suspension rods (helped a little)
I have no idea what else to do. I provided a picture of the unit. Please help.

I tried the bowl of nearly boiling water trick (don't want to risk melting the plastic) to no effect. Because it's a squeezy bottle it's difficult to get the honey out when it's this consistency.

I’m assuming it’s going to be an adhesive, but let me know what you would use to fix the rubber that’s been ripped and pulled out from my car’s driver’s side entrance.

How to clean this supposedly "water soluble" dry erase markers
These are supposed to be easy to clean. Why is it not coming off my white board?
I don't want to damage the board. Should I use Windex or some ammonia based cleaner?

I let my brother borrow my Prada shirt and he stained it. He washed and it and put in the dryer before he gave it to me and the worst part is he doesn’t remember what he stained it with. Any advice or suggestions will help greatly because this shirt was not cheap😭

I hate even having to ask this but my walls are paper thin and my neighbors have been bullying me since they moved in. I always talk very quietly because of it, moving isn’t an option, but I’m disabled and have family come to help me out and they talk VERY loudly.
I have asked them to be quieter and I feel horrible doing so. I don’t mind the rest of the time but when they’re in my home, I ask them to because I don’t want the neighbors having more to mock. Especially when it’s about sensitive matters. My family don’t take me seriously about the neighbors which is hard in itself, and I’d like to not be bothered by them but I really am. I’ve never had issues with neighbors before and think that if you’re joined on to someone else’s home, you want to be on good terms with them.
So how can I ask the people who help me to talk quieter without them thinking I’m being rude to them, when they don’t take seriously how much it impacts me otherwise? Yes it’s ridiculous having to whisper in my home but while they might not care what others think, I really do care about not giving the bullies more to target.
Thanks

Hello. I want to hang a clothesline from the joists in my basement. In my mind, a piece of hardware like the blue object in my awesome illustration would be ideal. I don't know if this is a thing that exists. I would like the clothesline suspended at least 15cm below the joists. Do you know if this piece of hardware exists? Do you have a better suggestion? Please help me.

I stuck a hair tools holder on the side of my Murphy bed and within a month it fell off but all this sticky stuff was left. This is after days of goo gone and scraping with the plastic scraper, I can’t seem to get anymore off.
I might be applying the goo gone wrong? Any suggestions on how to apply that to a wall - like surface without it spilling all over the floor?
Any suggestions??

This shower grab bar recently came loose. The top is screwed in along a grout line. The bottom was just attached by some adhesive. Is it possible/ worth it to reattach this grab bar or do I need to get a new one? TIA

Ice is building up on the bottom of our Kenmore fridge/freezer. Is there a way to take it off completely to get better access? I can take the basket out but was hoping to not still have the door in the way. I'm assuming there's a fault in the seal somewhere causing this but that will be my next step

Yes I know it says twist. But I can barely grip the silver and black sides cause they're so thin and the ol lefty loosey is failing me here. Is there a trick to it, am I just weak, or do you guys have any tips to loosen the seal?
Solved: Had to twist the clip and not the can. Shout out first comment after like 15 seconds haha
Found a ddr5 16gb RAM stick but it’s covered with either super glue or epoxy. It looks like someone tried to clean it with tissue, hence the white. I tried using a cotton bud dipped in 98% alcohol and then acetone, but it isn’t helping it seems. Is there a way to salvage this?

Would I need to do a ton of copying and pasting, or can you export all comments somehow?

Tape! Just tape. Cover the whole area in tape, rub on it length and width ways and peel it off slowly. Do as many times as necessary.
If that doesn't work, you can try rubbing alcohol. BUT be very warned it can remove the faux-leather finish and in my case I have a very unflattering matt spot on the front cover. The rest of the notebook is fine so I might have not been fast enough to remove the alcohol... so keep that in mind.
I would show a before and after but I never took a photo of the 'before', so here's what my moleskine notebook looks like now. I circled the rubbing alcohol affected spots.
I hope this helps anyone who needed it!

Hinge is loose, screws spin which means the threads aren't catching anything

I am using a piece of pvc pipe, and have been trying to use Crayola Model Magic for the details. Picture 2 is what I've got so far, but it's...not great. I started trying to build the top and am having no success. I rolled out some thick strands and wrapped one around the base and used a balloon to try to keep the empty space in the centre. The material is too floppy, and it keeps stretching and sliding down. I'm at a loss. From what I've seen online, everyone just 3D prints one when they cosplay, but I can't do that. I'm out of ideas. Help?
