while I can appreciate the lament of bad tenants being destructive or whatever to your property while they rent it... while they are renting it, its *their* residence, not yours. immediate, partial ownership is kinda what you are giving to get that rent money.

I’m a landlord. Barring an emergency, like a water leak or something I absolutely have to post advanced notice before I enter an apartment.

Landlords need to give notice—anywhere from 24 hours to 2 weeks before—to the tenant before entering in 46 states. Even for maintenance.

They don’t need permission, but they are required to give prior notice.

actually at least in a whole lot of places, they can’t just come in whenever unless its imminent emergency type maintenance. HERE, (and most places in the US as I understood it) its either specifically or approximately a day notice that they will be coming in/need to come in.

Wellll.... I’m pretty sure his painting happened to be right next to the laundry hamper.

This. I would be fucking livid if I found out my landlord (or anyone else for that matter) entered my residence without express permission and without me accompanying them.

If someone clicks on an article with that title - your own fault. But that picture is / was on the front page and thus everyone has to see it whether they want it or not.

What? You can’t handle the right of a sociopath - who shouldn’t be running loose in open society, let alone free to be a parent - emotionally abuse and traumatize his daughter? What are you a wuss?

“Hmm, a headline that mentions prairie dogs being horrifying. Sounds like one of those tech articles I came here to read about!”

Sorry, ma’am, it needed to be said. Next time, don’t click on an article that has the word “horrifying” in it. That way, you won’t risk being exposed to anything that is horrible.

That was the genesis of the safe space. However, it has since been perveted to the point where it now is something that people go to because they are sheltered and their feeling might get hurt.

And taste. Beef has a wonderful, rich taste. I prefer mine a bit rare with the fat on. Burnt end brisket is just the pinnacle.

I have no problems with this logic being applied to humans. We are terrible awful creatures. One day our alien overlords will learn how tasty we are and farm us and then we will have paid our karmic debt as a species. But until that day, fuck cows.

Remember that story a while back about deer eating baby birds, just crunching down their brains, body, and all, right out of the nest, regularly as a source of sustenance?

We should be able to see things for what and they are and accept it instead of being sheltered.

Dog and cats, living together. Mass hysteria!

Maybe we should provide you with a “safe space” free of ridicule and judgement... Where you can cry about everything that hurts your sensitive feelings.

“Hey Bill, do I have something in my teeth?”
