In my opinion everyone involved in the weird natural disaster landlord situation should simply decide to stop talking to one another and only communicate via carrier pigeon. In all seriousness in my opinion it wouldn't be a huge ask of the landlord to find a handyman, have them come by and replace a single fuse, and just be done with the situation rather than everyone bitching at each other over whether or not it's the landlord's job to make sure poo poo isn't broken (it is the landlord's job to make sure poo poo isn't broken and it's weird they wouldn't even entertain the idea of the tenant paying someone to fix it and just mailing them the key to the new lock because what the gently caress). Anyway, enjoy this because lord knows I did! Should I (23f) go through with having my partner’s (34m) child and (maybe) starting a very unconventional kind of family? quote:Tl;dr my partner of a few months and I are pregnant and he sometimes mentions incorporating me into a sister wife situation in a cult he is hoping to start and others making me believe I am his one and only and that he would move anywhere with me to start our family together. To maladapt animal farm, "Two parents good, 3 or more parents better" Also this is not only feels fake I get the vague vibe that it's also one handed for some reason.

Non ironically gently caress your natural disaster. Landlord is loving 5 hours away in the best circumstances and won't let a local locksmith/electrician deal with it. gently caress that poo poo

A Moose posted:From the landlord story, missing a few days of work is not a big deal, you just call your boss and say "ive been natural disastered and can't work for a couple days". It might suck to use some PTO or whatever, or maybe there's a temporary leave of absence you can use because a natural disaster hit? It's not that big a deal, unless it is and you have a terrible boss in which case you should probably find a better job anyway. Not having a functioning room in a home should mean they can just call their landlord and say "we're not paying rent for this portion of the house", right? It might suck to lose some rental income or whatever, but it's not that big of a deal.

So, the outlets in the room she wanted to use as a dedicated office space don't work, running extension cords in inconvenient, wifi is spotty in the room due to the inability to set up an extender due to lack of outlets. Yeah, the situation sucks and the landlord is a turd, but uh, just set up your computer in a different room temporarily? They're making it more difficult than it has to be.

MarcusSA posted:They offered to pay for extension cords as a temporary fix. So that absolutely takes care of the cannot do your job issue. The tenants are going to be way more inconvenienced by this than the landlord would be by going the locksmith/post a key route. And as was said before if the landlord lives 4 - 5 hours away not having someone nearby with a master key is an absolute fuckup on their part.

Can't believe how many people are rushing to make excuses for landlords. The class that thinks property ownership should always be a 100% profitable endeavor will make any excuse to not pay a pittance for home repairs and maintenance. The landlord's personal problems have no impact on their requirement to provide suitable housing for their tenants.

my landlord turned off the heat in my apartment yesterday without my knowledge. he entered my apartment in the middle of the day to do this, without telling me. I'm in new York and it's below freezing at night time. I called him out on it and he told me that "oil is expensive." he owns three cars, a truck, and two houses. this guy is a clown is what I'm saying

AITA for outing my ex as gay to get his mother off my back?quote:It’s a long and sucky story, but my (25F) soon to be ex (28M) is gay and hid that from me. I found out because I caught him cheating and he as much as admitted that he knew he wasn’t attracted to me that way, but he wanted kids and a “normal” life. I don’t care that he’s gay, but I will never forgive him for leading me on so he could use me to have kids, so it’s over, end of story.

I'm fine with people defending themselves in situations where that results in outing someone, but this ex had no reason to out them. Sure the ex is a huge piece of poo poo but... just block the mother? Don't talk to the family?

still lovely to out him as gay when, in walking away entirely from this dumpster fire of a family, you could unload entirely on the MIL to the point that she wouldn't want to seek contact again. just really go for her throat like the "I should make myself more attractive to my husband and be a better wife" bit would be a good time to point out this is terrible advice that creates miserable repressed people like her and the last thing i would ever want for my life is to walk the same horrible path you did to end up in the pathetic state you're in etc etc

Yeah I'm not sure this is any different in principle to any other story in which someone lies about their spouse to their parents to make themselves look good and then the lie blows up in their face worse than if they had said nothing. If you try and make someone a scapegoat for your own lovely behaviour they don't owe you anything when they decide they want to get themselves in the clear.

He would probably do that to another woman after her as he doesn't seem like the type to pretend celibacy. She shouldn't have outed him though. There's not really a decent answer to this. He should've had the spine to get away from his family and religion to live his truth. But that is incredibly difficult if it's a cult like mormonisn. I feel bad for everyone involved, it's a lovely situation.

There's a part of me that wants to believe, but I can't reconcile a closeted gay dude inviting an ex he cheated on to piss on the third rail. Even the stupidest gay dudes I've known have a better sense for self-preservation than that.

My hot take is since he didn't tell her she was a beard and lied to her their entire time together she wasn't wrong to out him. Especially after his excuse to his mom was "This prude isn't loving me enough."

I knew a woman who dated a dude who kept loving other guys behind her back. When she tried to politely break up with him and not discuss his gayness to protect him he still tried to drag her name through the mud and make her out to be a paycho vindictive crazy woman. Eventually, she gave up and just outed him for gay affairs because she was tired of getting harassed for ruining this poor innocent man's life and like, why is she shouldering all the suffering for a two time rear end in a top hat?

OK yes I know I'm late and we've all moved on, but why did no one suggest the real solution to the hosed room problem? Find some homeless friends to squat in the landlord's unit (phrasing) and ask THEM to fix the fuse for you. This is a solution that benefits every person involved.
