How sexist. It doesn't mention birds at all!

As well as the near-hourly updates on scam calls, and the individual with clipboard that was suspiciously ringing the front door bell.

Not a plumber, but I'm a homeowner and have dabbled in DIY plumbing. If this is a kitchen drain, see if it's an intermittent issue. Plastic pipe joints can leak when they get overly hot (like when you drain pasta water and pour boiling water down the drain). If it's not a constant leak, just run cold water when you are draining very hot water.

The white plastic nut is part of the P trap assembly. The metal pipe is an adapter or nipple. The nipple should be seated against a seal inside the P trap, and the nut tightens them together. In your photo it doesn't look like the nut is threaded on very far, so it can't hurt to give it a turn. But if the nut is broken or the seal is waterlogged, it would need to be replaced.

If the drain isn't in constant use, I'd be inclined to remove it and bring to your home center. Otherwise, this photo would probably be what you need to identify the parts needed. The parts shouldn't be too costly.

You forgot the person the protagonist is currently involved with who is a puppy-kicking narcissist. Source: my wife loves these movies too.

I hope it enjoys its existential despair.

People are really underestimating the bravery here: eating spaghetti and meatballs while wearing a head-to-toe pure white outfit is either extraordinarily bold or demonstrates a level of faith that's unbelievable even for the pope!

I figure it has more to do with the fact that the ICE car comes with a lifetime of engine and other maintenance that the dealership is looking to cash in on long after the warranty is expired. Even within the warranty, EVs don't need oil changes. Just brakes and tires, which are done much less frequently. And after the warranty, it's a long list of minor repairs to engine components, not to mention supporting all the emission control stuff. It's a gravy train and they don't want to get off.
