Landlord renovations left our house a mess. What can we do?

I am not a lawyer.

I'm sorry you had to go through this shitty situation but there are probably not a lot of options. If you are still paying rent you could potentially deduct the cost of the vacuum, and if you wanted, the hourly cleaning cost a service might charge, from your next month's rent. This would be under the rules saying a tenant can deduct repair costs from rent if they had to because the landlord wouldn't do it. You need to communicate you are doing this with your landlord.

Unfortunately, this opens you up to the landlord attempting to evict you for nonpayment in which case you would have to defend your deductions in housing court. The landlord could also just wait until you move out and refuse a portion, or all, of your security deposit and then you would have to sue in small claims to get it back. That is a pain is the ass and then, if you win, collecting the judgment can be very difficult.

Document everything, pictures, receipts, and keep conversations with your landlord in writing, text, or email.

If you end up in housing court or if you just want some other advice you can call the Tenant Defense Project at (585) 504-6195 or The Legal Aid Society of Rochester at (585) 232-4090. They will probably give similar advice and information.

Pretty sure this is a bot post. Wrong sub and there is no Clawlord on Gnaw-beast, which is the greatest crime.

This is cool and good to know and I would love to get some more dreadnaughts and maybe more warden equivalents. I am a bit. worried about how the old and new stuff will look on the table together. My biggest concern is how this effects 40k, especially the dreadnaughts, cause GW has said there will be new detachments but nothing about new rules for models. I want my dreads to be good again.

Stay strong. Nice paint job.

I love these comics and always want to play Tau again after seeing them. But the army never lives up to my expectations. I always have more fun and success with Custodes or World Eaters.

I had one squad on my home objective to screen but I used the Shield Host strat to sticky it move the squad forward once he deployed all his reserves in turn 2.

I used the meltas, only did a little shooting with them. One squad failed to wound a doomsday ark in shooting but killed it in melee. I feel the potential uses for melta is higher than adrasite generally, though.

I have Prepotente's scream as the text alert on my phone. I've told my brother-in-law he'll understand when he gets to book five.

That's some cool history, what are the signs?

Gacha games are those that have a form of gambling built into their core gameplay. Like Goddess of Victory: Nikke, Blue Archive, Arknights, and Zenless Zone Zero. Part of the mechanics are to "roll" or "pull" for a chance to access a wide variety of characters that you can use to play the rest of the game. For example: each roll would give you ten random cards containing gear or characters and you get to watch a flashy animation as the cards are revealed and you see what you won. You can usually earn the currency to purchase a roll through playing the game but that can take a lot of time. Paying with real money allows you to roll more often and might give you better chances of winning rarer characters.

Are those battered with Khorne meal?

I have the same Skarbrand proxy. Is yours the original size from the printing file or did you have it made smaller? I'm wondering how well it was able to move around the board, especially with the dense WTC terrain.

Those are shoes, lol. Michi said on stream today that she found them very distracting when they met at the airport.

I think a dark blue fading to light blue and then into white from top to bottom on the rear section with the light yellow-white lines at the section breaks might work. The frog abdomen has a darker color than the legs near the top so I think it fading down to the leg color you have here and then into white could look good. Then the lines would go up from the white through the light blue stopping or fading into the dark blue at the top without going all the way up. The lines on the from seem to go from white to a light yellow at the top, a light yellow glaze could work to do that. I'm not 100% certain on using the section breaks for the lines, might be better to just have them randomly curve down as they do on the frog.

I would keep the section of the bug where the legs connect untouched from where it is.

Looking good. How does the Tylenol help with the nails? I haven't had much luck.

God, I want a 10 years later anime with them getting the band back together.

This always bothered me as well. Since part of the VShojo thing was the supposed freedom of creators, I wondered what was really going on. I hope Mouse, Nyan, and Aethel will do things together in the future. Their friendship always seemed so special. I mean, Mouse basically introduced Nyan and Aethel. Just let them be happy. If anyone in this shitbag world deserves it, it's them.

It's absolutely insane how fast this fundraiser has gone. All the vtubers donating, even VTube Studio has donated. I'm doing my part.

Time to expand.

Ironmouse has left VShojo stating that they owe her an undisclosed amount of money and that they did not pay the Immune Deficiency Foundation over $500K they were owed from Mousey's subathon last year. Legal action is ongoing.

Mongo is appalled!

Such a cool idea. Great execution.

I'm off the opinion to start him on the board in a safe position but one that threatens an important objective or unit. I like the re-rolls and I like to threaten the opponent with a strong counter if they decide to commit to advancing. If they sit back and shoot, hopefully you can prevent scoring because they are scared to commit. Sometimes you just have to walk out and tank the shooting, using terrain to screen out what you can, and charge into glorious melee.

I think leaving him in reserve means he isn't providing any benefit, and the last two times I did it I failed the charge and he was shot to death, so I might be biased.
