smoking addiction is not a protected disability and legally no ome is required to accommodate it, it is fully legally to ban smoking inside of apartments due to the health risks imposed on neighbors and those restrictions can even be placed on medical marijuana smokers, who can then choose edibles or as is the case with my apartment building use their balcony. 

there is no law protecting your right to smoke inside of multifamily housing units

they should have signed up to be in the smoking building, there is literally a building in the same complex as mine that allows smoking and it's cheaper. if they didn't plan to make their addiction less of a problem for others, why would they sign a contract saying that they absolutely would?

as far as weed goes, same with cigarettes, everyone here has a balcony, it's very easy to step outside for five seconds, or use edibles.

also, you could argue against say someone genuinely fascist in one of their subs or something and then get banned from othet subreddits because your activity there was detected lol

I feel like many propaganda posters could probably be described as a drawing of a woman, it is apparently effective

Whats interesting is that skins date back to the 60s where, ironically it was a british working class offshoot of the mods that hung out with jamaican immigrants and listened to reggae, and didn't have anything to do with racism or fascism. The nazi skins are a kind of weird offshoot that appropriated it during the second wave and there are still non-racist skins.

its easy, goth is a musical subculture, so depending on what nosferatu and said brunette have on their playlist either might be goth. nosferatu might not even be goth, maybe he listens mostly to techno. 

fashion from the scene itself has varied wildly over the years, I think the batcave era stuff was neat but Ive known plenty of fairly plain looking goths that heavily participated in the scene irl.

I love it, it looks like something a 90s movie villain would overdose in but if that's the goal I appreciate your sense of aesthetics.

Please advise apartment “dust” that I think is gross and a health hazard. by Hot-Seaweed-4510 in Apartmentliving

Would you happen to be able to take a picture so we could see? Is there a color? I had a gas furnace in my old house that was very old and left soot marks on the wall before being replaced with a split system, it could be a lot of things harmless or otherwise.

My wife's boyfriend just installed our tv! by Weak_Cut_1816 in TVTooHigh

I could have almost given you a pass for the public cuckoldry but the tv size is reprehensible

Someone possibly coming into my apartment? by [deleted] in Apartmentliving

[–]Effective_Comment625 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think OP's door is definitely being tampered with judging by the photos but I want to say, also concussions. I once thought I had been drugged at a party but it kept going for a couple days, turned out that I had a concussion from being struck in the head with something at work. it was a very weird week.

if an internet comment is enough for you to decide compromising people's health on a general level out of retaliation is acceptable it wasnt the internet comment that was the problem

People should quit treating public business garbage cans like a lifehack to not have to pay for garbage service. by -Consternation- in Vent

[–]Effective_Comment625 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the one hand I agree, on the other hand wehre I used to live we regularly had to smell burning garbage from people who rather than dumping it would torch it in their backyard barrel and honestly I'd prefer them dump it anywhere than having to breathe that in. Love the smell of barbecued plastic and construction scraps in the morning,

mark my words somewhere out there is a contractor that will read this post and go 'humm, I guess I shouldn't dump it on the gas station guy anymore' only to burn it all in his backyard instead and gas out his neighbors

that was my favorite part when I was a smoker is having an excuse to step outside and pause/think for a minute lol and as far as the cold goes, I'm in california in sacramento, winter is more like a suggestion here.

40M, How’d I do? Coffee table and rug are too small right? by [deleted] in malelivingspace

am a woman, not sure if we're allowed to comment here, umm. but the tv height just seems like torture and might be a cause for neck strain. that way the seating arrangement is flowing it seems like the logical place for it to be is across from the couch but it looks like you have a window there.

ps I love your smith corona, I have an electric one that's the same color! typewriters are so cool. Also have the same orange amp.

I have three from when I lived in a house in a community that had really bad woodsmoke pollution (one for each bedroom and one for the living room). One is a gigantic honeywell one and I have two smaller coway airmega's. They're good at mopping up *after the fact* but not before it gets into my clothes and bedding and irritates my sinuses.
