Also people who don't understand the fundamentals you just clearly explained are giving ad-hoc emotional based "legal advice". Let us sit back and watch what happens.

PoundSand posted:tbh it's kind of surprising more tech people haven't done that. People talk a big game about how city life gives them so much more access to x/y/z and they're not wrong but do most of em actually utilize it? Is some microsoft computer toucher really crawling bars on cap hill , hitting up live performances, reveling in the arts and culture available? Or are they just wfh/commuting to wherever in the GSA they could get property for a bit cheaper and living almost identically to people from smaller cities, putting all their fun money into deliveries and downloads. I grew up in and live a couple hours from seattle and could if I felt like it just take a long weekend there with the wife once in a while and that'd still be more engagement with the city proper than most of my friends who still live there. The person that truly takes advantage of metro life like it's some sort of sitcom feels like a unicorn, you don't have the money when you have the youth and you don't have the youth when you have the money. I can't speak for everyone but when I lived in New Haven there was plenty of engagement for myself and people I knew. Rent was cheap and this was the halcyon days of pre covid and I was going to tons of local concerts, enjoyed the parks and woods, and had easy access to NYC. 35 bucks or so for a round trip ticket to spend the day in the city and see a show or visit a musem and see friends, and then come back at 1 in the morning or crash on a couch and come back the day after. I wasn't making a lot of money by any means, but wasn't poor either, about 45k a year. Now a lot of "city engagement" is driven by alcohol consumption and that's a point worth making. And to be fair I'm still a goon and probably spent more of my time staring at the computer at home but just remember going out and doing stuff more clearly I do think it's gotten a lot harder post 2020 with how prices have spiraled and the whole deadly pandemic thing. And seattle was already expensive before all this has gotten worse. I live about 90 min away don't find it particularly easy to get around there either, but only go up for weekends or work sometimes right now.

DancingShade posted:Yes. Also people who don't understand the fundamentals you just clearly explained are giving ad-hoc emotional based "legal advice". yeah, I never claimed goon shouldn't appeal just that it's a diceroll with our legal system You could win based off of your haircut reminding them of someone or lose if you wear glasses that they think you are wearing to "look smart in court." The facts might prevail or they might not. It's not a slam dunk if a single person is allowed to enforce their opinion and any biases they have. The first judge already completely ignored the actual laws and gave the landlord who is objectively in the wrong a symbolic victory with the court costs so it's not like that is impossible a second time. I'd still side with the lawyer giving actual legal advice though. Usually the more confident and sure goons are about something the more incorrect they are about it.

I always wear my Necromonger Lord Marshal cosplay gear when going outside as any sane goon would do. It took some work but I've also integrated the 3M 7800s full face respirator into it to deal with bio threats from humans and deer.

FlapYoJacks posted:I’ll still run it by our lawyer. Because he can’t legally represent us in court in California, his fees were upfront and one time only. He’s not in it for extra cash monies. EDIT: Nevermind, I see the rules of small claims court in California forbid having external counsel (which is probably smart for keeping disputes from getting too expensive, but probably stupid for getting good outcomes because you're expecting pro se parties to approach proceedings without knowledge and stay within the requirements of the law).

I think you did the right thing by just walking away, though. $300 for not having to litigate something out with a crazy person is the kind of annoying, but worthwhile expense that our world imposes on adults.
