I love hummus but I thought it was high calorie due to fat (good fats, but still).

Subnautica vibes.

Yeah similarly, when a pastime or hobby is shared among a large group in society or culturally or whatever, someone who doesn’t enjoy or partake in said hobby is seen as weird (or worse).

Case in point: I’m a dude who looks like I should watch sports. I hate sports spectating. Having the “why don’t you watch football” conversation comes up annoyingly too often.

Anti-AI has become a weird crowd mentality cult.

You’re busy actively being correct. That’s what you’re doing.

The best answer. It really is that simple LOL.

I don’t get it. What’s the problem?

It’s not about making big money. These small time landlords still drive up the cost of rents by going with “market rates” and increasing rents over time. They are just “small time greedy”.

Not nearly as evil as large scale landlords obviously, but rare to nonexistent is a landlord who won’t continually raise rent when they don’t need to.

EDIT: LOL you idiots can downvote me all you want it doesn’t mean I’m wrong, because I’m not.

I’ve rented from mostly small time landlords, more importantly I’ve worked with, and currently work with people who buy and own extra rentals as side businesses to rent out. They brag about having tenants pay their mortgage, and I hear their experiences of raising rents to get more money (their mortgage hasn’t changed, they just want more). They both laugh and complain when tenants need things fixed, they delay and try to figure out how to go cheap or “how can I legally place the responsibility on the tenants”.

Decent landlords are a small minority. Most who do this are leaches. Fuck landlords.
