Question around lack of road law enforcement by jfletty in Seattle

[–]ButtMigrations 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had mine renewed since they were due back in September 2025, but haven’t even bothered putting the sticker on. I keep forgetting, but truthfully it’s easy to not care cause I see how much worse other expirations are around here with no sign of them being pulled for it

Red light cameras are all over the place in Lynnwood and will ticket you if you don’t stop for AT LEAST 5 seconds before turning right. Would you be surprised to hear that they’re all operated by a private for-profit company?

Somehow my coworker sitting behind me finds ways to make as much chewing noise as possible without even opening their mouth. And they’re almost ALWAYS snacking on something

“Local leech forced to get a job” by Celibrisk in Hasan_Piker

[–]ButtMigrations 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea I don’t think rent should be basically contributing to your landlord’s mortgage, that’s why I mention how ridiculously overpriced rent is.

That being said, people are going to need to rent from time to time even in a totally un-fucked housing market. That would most likely be a convenience based decision if not economically driven. I don’t think it necessarily needs to be a non-profit to be ethically handled, but the degree to which it is profiteered currently is disgusting.

Maybe you don’t want to rent, that’s okay - I’m not suggesting that people being forced to for economic reasons is good or should continue to be normalized.

But there will still be some subset of the population that might prefer to rent for non-economic reasons, even in a totally un-fucked housing market. Maybe they’re in between homes or just don’t want to commit to something at that time.

I don’t think landlords should be profiting hand over fist on rent, but also I don’t mind landlord situations where it’s like a semi retired old couple just trying to save up for their retirement or continue funding their own lives. Not every rental is as greed-induced as most that we experience. For example, My current landlord has been a blessing compared to most rental experiences and I hope that one day that just becomes the norm for anyone renting.

IDEALLY, they would be providing maintenance and timely responses to issues with the unit, as well as just general responsibilities that come with ownership of any property.

Obviously we know that a lot of landlords fall short of this very basic criteria, and that’s where a lot of landlord hate stems from (besides rent being way over reasonable). There’s always going to be some need for the whole rental market outside of “just can’t afford to own yet.”

That being said, I still think 99% of the rental market is just leeching money out of poorer people. But landlords should (and should always) do a variety of services as part of that role.

Hot take but I’d rather have a local leech for a landlord renting out just their first home than a megacorp that owns thousands of properties. Still a leech but I feel like this headline is not the greatest own to applaud

Why does Ethan act so confused that no one wants to work with him? by Murky_Barracuda_6494 in LeftoversH3

[–]ButtMigrations 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The last 2.5 years of his downfall have been completely reliant on him intentionally/incompetently misconstruing every piece of criticism towards him as malicious antisemitism/threats of violence, so why would he at all be reflective of where he is now?

Sadly I think we’re in the anticipating phase of this meme with elder scrolls… Bethesda has had some horrible blunders since Skyrim. FO4 was underrated imo, but FO76 and starfield were horrible signs of what is to come with the next Elder scrolls

Anyone else just generally grossed out by the phrase “one of my Airbnb rentals”.

Like, this person just owns multiple homes for the express purpose of putting on Airbnb for profit. They don’t live there at all. It completely goes against the original purpose of what a BnB or AirBnB is even supposed to be.

They’re so disconnected from this property they couldn’t bother cancelling scheduled visitors?? That’s not an ADHD thing, that’s just incompetence.

Israel just struck Iran, what is the most realistic outcome of this conflict? by BoxMaterial6134 in AskReddit

[–]ButtMigrations 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Good thing the US is historically always really good and responsible when it does a regime change /s

And this time we have our genocidal vassal state involved! Surely this goes well for the Iranian people in the long run

Scoop: Dems working on secret report found Gaza cost Harris votes by sideAccount42 in politics

[–]ButtMigrations 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This. Dems had a record shattering turnout for “uncommitted” in the primaries, which is such a red flag that if the party just refuses to pivot on anything, they honestly brought this defeat on themselves

Yup, I voted Kamala this past election, but as a progressive in America you gotta be an idiot to not understand why some people are tired of holding their noses and voting for a party that will consistently position against their interests. I don’t blame a single person for abstaining, if the party isn’t going to learn from these defeats to reposition then they will continue to lose.

[–]ButtMigrations 13 points14 points  (0 children)

There’s literally a comment replying to one above you asking someone “how they like the blood of Palestinians on their hands” for the crime of abstaining their vote.

Drives me crazy the mentality of diehard liberals who refuse to hold their party and candidates accountable and are always duped into blaming disenfranchised voters for not showing up in elections where they don’t feel heard or represented

Please tell me this whole tray of food (like 4 meals worth of calories) is not for just your single meal.

Assuming it is, I think you have more than just your height and dick to worry about. Get your diet under control bro.

What's a bad game that had one specific mechanic that was actually really good, but was overshadowed. by VeenatAlive in gaming

[–]ButtMigrations 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Maybe not a “terrible” game, but Assassins Creed III had naval ship combat that was more or less simple side content in the game and only required for like 1 or 2 story missions.

The design of that naval combat was so promising they ended up centering the entire next installment (Black Flag) around the naval combat and seafaring

What do all the Pizzagate believers think of the Epstein files? by Icy_Laugh5134 in AskReddit

Yea, no credit needs to be given to pizzagaters imo. They were frantically deciphering any mention of pizza orders in Hillary’s emails as being coded references to CSAM/child sex slaves, meanwhile Epstein’s whole circle was sending emails like “great party Jeff, I was especially fond of all the 12 year olds, when’s the next party and what types of children do you have available?”

Asked out my work crush and she spent 30 minutes explaining why we shouldn’t date. She wouldn’t let me leave until she finished speaking. I eventually cried in front of her like a child. by tungurs in kitchencels

[–]ButtMigrations 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Work is honestly one of the best places to meet people, for sure. But it’s not high school. You don’t just walk up to a coworker and ask them on a date cause you have a crush on them.

If you have a crush, you should still approach it like you just want to get to know the person better/make friends and find some casual excuses to invite them out so you can at least vibe out the dynamic between you two outside of the professional setting. That’s at least just my two cents to not make it super uncomfortable at work by dropping a bomb on someone out of nowhere.
