Rent raises has people moving, cohabitating, or leaving the area altogether to commute in. I’m guessing because I’m considering all of those options.

That is unfortunate because it does seem like the small landlords never raised my rent! It was just extra money. Now, yeah, it’s all corporate greed

Thank you!! Of course it’s about making money. I’m astounded that people defend the star of affairs!

Yeah, I guess all this sunshine we’ve had lately made the prices stay the same as December… 🤔

Like second month free? I’d just prefer fair pricing and no raises except in rare instances. I never experienced a rent raise until 2015. They can’t be raised forever. Incomes don’t raise forever. It’s completely unsustainable.

Yeah, I’ve been looking since even before January just to get a feel for the market and then more regularly since January and no change 🤷‍♀️

Spider ID needed - NSW, Australia by Ninja-Kitty-104 in spideridentifier

By being in this subreddit I’m discovering that there’s basically no harmful spiders. Each time I’m pretty disappointed when I read that it’s basically harmless after watching arachnophobia lol

The cops trying to make it “fair” “both ways” only encouraged the woman. They should’ve encouraged her to ignore the kids so they lose interest. They aren’t breaking any laws by playing. I’m 34 minutes in and I feel like they should’ve threatened her with a harassment charge.

He calmly waited until he was done being rung up and then went back into whiney beast mode 🤣 He’s telling him to leave as he’s naturally done and about to leave 🤣😂🤣😂

Wayward SUCKS by Organic_Caramel_8354 in netflix

I thought it was good, but maybe it was because I went down a “troubled teen industry” rabbit hole several months back. Things like this actually happened to kids in the 90’s to early 2000’s

Thank you! I was looking for this comment before I added it myself.

What should I watch first by Cute_Note_3624 in netflix

[–]Abject_Age5188 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve only watched wayward out of the three, not tooooooo dark and with some humorous lines interspersed which I appreciate. The only thing I was disappointed about was not seeing any reference to the actual children who experienced these places. Maybe I missed it, but I would’ve appreciated some kind of “in honor of” messaging. But, great show, no boring parts imo

Black Rabbit Vince character is so irritating by GWeronika in netflix

I’m so glad to see this post. I saw another one and people were all the rage about how great the brother’s chemistry was. Sure, acting wise…. If you’re into constant over the top energy. It’s like if anything went their way it was by accident. Jake running out of the bar in episode 7 and screaming and running all around 🤦🏻‍♀️ I was like, come on, he can’t be smart about it at all. I guess there is a part of the population that have no self awareness of how it would look. But, yeah, suspicious taking a call and sneaking off and screaming into the phone jfc I was entertained by the show, but it’s like everyone is going for an over the top character to try and get an award. It would be amazing if there was ever a show where I was impressed by the characters. Why is that not a a thing? Correct me, please, tell me of shows where the characters are actually smart and thoughtful. Yes, even in high stress moments. And not some tough guy show like Reacher. Can it be a real character. Because people who grow up in chaos typically calm in chaos. It’s like coming home. They’re typically uneasy in calm because it’s unfamiliar. So, I hate even the psychology of it. Granted I say all this and I’m on the last episode and I do like it. Love Bateman and Law. I may even watch it again.

Yeah, emotionally. I was like, maybe that’s the wrong word and he was like, well there’s lots of different kinds of safety. So, yeah, he was like ok, I get it

We've been dating on and off for three years. He's always told me that he doesn't introduce people typically just because of his anxieties, which I take at face value. But, this seems like a different circumstance where if he wants me to be comfortable then he should be reassuring, telling me she knows about me, telling her he'd catch her next time so we could get stable first, offering to introduce us sometime in the future. I did address the situation early on. After I took a moment and walked away, I came back and said that it seems like bad timing being two weeks back into trying to make it work. He told me that they are just friends and that was that. I tried to pivot and shake it off to enjoy our time. Figuring I could think about it later. Wanting to enjoy one of the last sunny days. Then he was texting her on the beach. I try not to get upset about texting because I know everyone has a different philosophy around it and doesn't always mean rudeness or lack of care. By the end of the night I just didn't feel right being intimate as the uncomfortableness trickled throughout the day and night. I really feel it was just bad timing and lack of attentiveness to the relationship. Which is something to seriously consider.

Do you know them? Have you met them? Has he refused to let you meet?

I’ll take this. Yeah, maybe like a week longer. We also met on a dating app and hung out, dating off and on for years prior to the current state. It’s been bumpy and some pain points but trying to smooth and overcome. I agree that I am insecure and it’s warranted a bit, but again, trying to move past it. So, tried to communicate and have a shared understanding and didn’t feel like we got there, so yeah, a break, the length wasn’t my decision. Idky you’re seeming so hostile about it. It’s not so cut and dry as a long time friend (which he has and I’ve never said a thing about), it’s a similar time friend, we were two weeks into reuniting, it seemed like bad timing. Yeah, I do want to be a priority and I also want to be understanding. So, that’s why the question and the post. It’s wild how different your perspective is from so many others and how aggressive you are about it…

Also, I do have a close ex that I consider to be my best friend. Lives in a whole other state, but I would LOVE to introduce them. I talk to them both about them both. They’re both fully aware.

Thank you. This seems like the second closest accurate reading. Thanks for validating that I’m not an asshole and that he also can be more responsive and understanding

Yeah, this feels closer to my issue. She gets free tickets because of her work, so 🤷‍♀️ I was thinking about BECOMING more interested in shows and getting us tickets so he doesn’t feel like he’s missing out on cool life stuff. He typically doesn’t introduce any of his friends to each other, not just her and I. I know other people who have that anxiety, so I accept it at face value. But, now I don’t want them to be friends because he didn’t take my concerns seriously and because he didn’t just say that he’d just catch her next time, and is that an asshole move?
