My apartment complex has a very explicit "No nails" policy written into my lease in regard to hanging pictures.

gently caress your apartment complex. How large is your deposit and what do you think the chances are of you getting it back?

Foam pillows tend towards warm. The best way I've found to keep a pillow cool is the chillow. If you like firm pillows, buckwheat is supposed to be super breathable too.

You can approximate a chillow by soaking a dish towel and putting it inside a ziploc bag, then putting it in the fridge or freezer.

I really wish there was a way to filter housing ads for whether the stove is gas or electric :argh:

Rodents are a public health risk and absolutely a landlord's responsibility to deal with. However, slumlords gonna slumlord. This document indicates that lack of maintenance is not a way to break your lease. Your best bet, unfortunately, is to say to your landlord something like "Look, it's infested with rodents, we want out. Just give us our deposit back and let us break the lease and we won't go through any of these legal processes to force you to perform maintenance" but it's really a bluff because presumably you don't want to have to deal with that poo poo, and it also won't result in you getting out early.

Definitely give Homeline MN a call and see what they say.

Facebook marketplace or Craigslist, depending.

At 400 miles, you'd have to use one of the bigger companies and not a local shop. I would be inclined to dump them and get new ones, it will probably come out even, maybe 🤷 (I don't buy expensive furniture)
