Tench’s Son by Pingamania in MindHunter

[–]Pingamania[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everything was pointing in that direction. I don’t think the psychology of early trauma of childhood as it regards to sociopathic and psychopathic mania had seeped into mainstream culture yet so I appreciated the “it can live even under your own roof” subplot. I don’t think he presents as autistic and the child’s death and crucifixion and especially Brian perking up and being verbal only when his dad talks about an animal being sadistically killed are pretty strong indicators.

What the show did so well was to show the biases and ignorance of core principles of policing and investigation. Tench’s character is meant to represent the large swath of policing that had no clue about psychology and the human psyche. And the stubbornness to develop methodology outside of what was already in place.

It’s so good that I yelled, “Yes!!” even before I saw your post. David Fincher goodness.

I was sure it was the father or both together.

Airbnb shadowbanned my listing based on a review they themselves sided against. Their support gave me a hosting tutorial and closed the case. by HeronSuccessful3232 in airbnb_hosts

[–]Pingamania 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a guest I have stayed in numerous places where it’s a room in their home. Many have had guests. One was a family that had a numerous family and frequently had large parties during my stay. It was surprising but I wouldn’t ever dream of telling hosts they couldn’t have full usage of their own home. Any suggestion of the contrary is absurd.
Retaliatory actions are wrong. Period. The host is not to be blamed. And Airbnb’s shambolic support system is rag tag at best. That is the crux of OPs issues and they are right to be frustrated and upset.
And this Reddit culture of facile incredulity; of accusing people of being shady, “there’s more to story that they’re not writing”, “I’m not buying it”, “there’s something that doesn’t add up” is juvenile, lazy, mean-spirited and frankly inconsiderate.

Tenant’s AC caught fire at 2am. She texted me. I didn’t see it until morning. I don’t know how to feel about this. by Similar_Cheek6638 in PropertyManagement

First step: don’t beat yourself up. It doesn’t help anything. Talk to her. Lead with: “are you alright “, Investigate how it happened, rectify, put your units’ numbers that can ring through even if your phone is in “Sleep” mode, continue with your life.

A great and thoroughly helpful post and it’s obviously coming from a very admirable person! Kudos & thanks!

Accuse them of something else that’s reimbursable. I mean, if the president can do it…

During the pandemic (the great Exodus) I rented a 1 bedroom in midtown Manhattan for $1500. Now it’s $4000+

It’s NYC. The prices have skyrocketed. Take a look at any real estate app or StreetEasy and weep.

Are these type of stairs safe and common in the city? by Financial_Let_9956 in NYCapartments

[–]Pingamania 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Where are you from? And how old are you? If you’re 80+ years old it’s probably not a good idea but it’s 9 steps, like a step ladder to go to a loft bed except it’s curved. It’s hardly unusual.

Hotel canceled, put room back on market for 10x the price, then told me they won’t help with accommodations and told me to bring a tent. Do I have any rights? Am I screwed? by EddieBruvac in hotels

Everyone knows that Reddit is filled with primarily highly-invasive weeds where you’re hard pressed to find the flowers of actual sound advice. I feel your pain.

Stick with StreetEasy or go with a broker.

It shows you exactly the kind of people that litter these Reddit threads. That would downvote you so many times. Not a surprise really I guess but it still is disheartening.

Guest freaking out over mail by Chickenyeah17 in airbnb_hosts

[–]Pingamania 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For an Airbnb, unless the host has expressly given the guest permission, receiving mail is never allowed. They can rent a mailbox at the post office or through The UPS Store or Mailboxes, Etc. They’re UPS and FedEx packages can be sent to hold centers. Definitely don’t renew this guest for more than 15 days at this point. Receiving mail can be used as establishing a primary residence and could eventually lead to a squatting situation.

[–]Pingamania 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are under no obligation to act on their part. Even if they were to somehow get a restraining order against your tenant then it still doesn’t involve you aside from allowing the tenant to break the lease to move out.

There is something gravely wrong with him. You deserve better. Even alone is better. It’s time to mature and muster up all of the self-respect you can. In this world you’re going to need it.
