550 square feet of fuck my dick

    Measured that basement today...
    Even the cheapo self-stick is 99cents a square foot.
    That's like a shit ton of money.
    But damn, I gotta do this so I can let my cats scratch it to hell.
    I wish I could just snap my fingers and make it happen.

    The woman I'm dating goes hard AF and I can barely keep up sometimes.
    Today we went out to eat breakfast and then took the kid to run around a playground and after that all I remember is sitting down for 1 second to catch my breath and 3 hours later I'm waking up dazed and confused.

    Living in 2 places at once is definitely taking extra out of me that I don't need to be losing right now.
    She went to church so I took the chance to run back to my apartment to feed my cats and play with them some but I am going back later tonight.
    It takes me about 30 minutes to get there.

    If I had 1 thing I could be doing right now it would be laying carpet tiles so that my kitty cats could come with me and have their own safe place to get away too and chill with me.
    Moving more of my stuff in is completely pointless right now because there is no room for it and I'll just end up moving it again and again until I get something set up livable.
    Her place is fine as is and I don't want to fuck it up. All I need is a place to do computer stuff late at night while she is sleeping.

    Tomorrow we are going to a museum in the morning and probably a couple other stops but my goal is to get to the store and buy some friggin carpet squares and get fucking started.
    I don't know what I'm doing anyways and yes it will probably look like shit but whatever.
    I gotta try damn it.
    Going to buy 1 or 2 boxes and see how they stick and if they don't stick then I guess I'll get some glue...

    Went to Homedepot to buy this: https://www.homedepot.com/p/TrafficMaster-Versatile-Assorted-Commercial-Pattern-24-in-x-24-in-Carpet-Tile-10-Tiles-Case-NCVT002/204594243



    Even though I went to the correct isle and bay I did not see any in stock.
    I did see other options although I wasn't prepared to change my game plan with 20 minutes until the store closed.

    I was really hoping on spending $700 on carpet tile.

    I use to work with her back in the day and always admired her priorities of church and family stuff.

    I have only been looking at Home Depot and Lowes for carpet tile until now.
    Just check Menards which I totally forgot about and looks like I can save 25% as they are asking roughly 75cents per square foot of assorted carpet tile.

    Now if only I can find a coupon or promo code to make this deal a little sweeter.

    Make sure you get a BEASTY de-humidifier too because that cheap ass carpet tile that is 100% unnecessary will absolutely mold like a bitch.


    I don't even get your end goal here. Rather than do something that might keep it warm/dry/dust free you're adding something that will make everything 100x worse. The carpet is going to absorb moisture from the floor and wick it out into the rest of the room.

    The 95% humidity will cause the non-synthetic fibers in the carpet to grow mold, and cause any electronics you put down there to corrode within a month.

    The excessive time you spend down there will cause you to get increasingly sick as you breath in black mold spores.

    Your girlfriend and her kids will end up getting sick af as the mold creeps into the upstairs because you're too busy doing vlogs that maybe 3 people including you and your alt care about to notice the mold creeping up the walls and all over the ceiling.

    Tensions will build as you both blame each other for the conditions of the house and your health. You increasingly getting irritated by being wrong, her increasingly getting irritated that being a good Christian woman has fucked her so hard.

    She'll eventually kick you out, you'll have to throw out 85% of what you own because it will all be mold damaged, and we'll get another 6 months of "Poor me" threads.


    All because you're too fucking stupid to take advice from people who know what they're talking about. You'd rather build some stupid ass fort that you've done nothing in life to afford. You're giving up a whole ass apartment for literally nothing.

    I have been looking at moisture barriers and shit too.
    What do you recommend i do?

    Like I said, make SURE you get a good dehumidifier. If you can keep it 50-55% in the winter and <50% in the summer you'll be fine. You aren't doing wall treatments so don't worry about moisture barriers.

    If you're still concerned beyond that use a good mold blocking primer like Killz, then paint the floor and walls with a good latex paint. It will stop the block walls and concrete floor from leaking (concrete is porous), and the dehumidifier will help with the stuff the falls down from the upper levels.

    Like, bro, all bullshit aside, I do consistently try to give you good advice, and normally what you do only effects you, but you're mucking around with the lives of children so it's important you don't do something that's going to create a biohazard for them.


    Also, I don't know your overall plan but just in case you don't already know DO NOT USE GREEN TREATED LUMBER. IT WILL KILL EVERYONE IN THE HOUSE. IT IS FOR OUTDOOR USE ONLY.

    I started looking at sub floors to lay down last night.
    You are probably right about getting some kilz paint though too.
    The paint shows clear signs that moisture is getting in through a window and it may be coming up through the floor.
    It is too cold outside to go out and caulk the window up and probably too cold to paint right now too.
    Every time I get psyched up about starting on it I realize the weather is horrible to be doing any of this.
    The walls need scraped and painted again and the floor might too although most of it looks pretty dry.

    I reached out to a flooring installer friend of mine but his only reply was "Do you know any prostitutes I can call?"

    I've got a feeling that once I do get it cleaned out so that I can start work I will opt to spend a little more money on something nicer than the absolute cheapest carpet squares I can find. Would prefer something easier to repair because I know this is not going to look amazing anyways.

    My needs and wants come 3rd right now and that is how I want it. Ideally things would have already been done but we chose to take it slow and for good reason. Now that I have more time to get this going and am green lighted to do so it is not a very good time of year.
    I will probably spend a few more weeks researching and learning about the task I am undertaking before I get anymore done except for clearing stuff out.
    This is not my house and I'll be damned if I embarrass myself doing some tacky shit job for my girlfriend.

    Don't worry about a subfloor, concrete is fine. A subfloor would just be taking up more precious headspace. The most important things are dehumidifier and keeping the air moving so it doesn't get too stagnant.

    You're probably right about it being too cold. Paint stops drying right under like 45-50o

    I have given up on this idea and it is includes too much of my selfish impulsiveness and I will be buying some area rugs on clearance somewhere.

    Holy fuck, Fona opted for the responsible choice. Yeah, you should just do that. Maybe get some cool tapestries to keep the warm air in a set location. Get into burning candles to help with the heat a little
