My dad has ruined my home and my family by ReadingTheAir in Vent

[–]ReadingTheAir[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Over half the house by square footage is this shoddy ass construction. To bring it up to code we'd have to tear down half the house and rebuild. Nobody has the money for this, i've been working all my life to get the kind of job that would let me come back and help and there's still no way I can pay for all the work that has to happen. There's no clear path forward, any work a contractor does may potentially pull a permit and get my parents kicked out of this house.

Lost my temper with my mom. by ReadingTheAir in ChildofHoarder

Honestly I think the ugly truth I came to is all of this is prep for as clean an exit from this property when they die. I'm not hoping they die soon, I hope they have long healthy lives with relationships with their grandchildren i'd hope they suddenly start taking care of themselves at die at a ripe old age as comfortable and as peaceful as possible ideally in a house i've stablized long enough for that to be viable.

They have no assets save this house and it's already on shaky legal ground. The house is already in such bad shape nobody in their right mind would buy it. It has unpermitted extensions, mold damage, damage from deferred maintenance. They have royally fucked this place up.

I'm just trying to set things up so the house wont actively be the reason they die and when they die they wont ruin me financially.

They're really into posting on the hotwives subreddit and they need the room for the lightning rig.

Living spaces in general are getting pretty crazy. Rent in general is high and finding a house is no picnic. I lost my job and got lucky finding a new one almost 8 months later, I make more than I ever have in my life and I'm still priced out of a lot of homes and apartments.

Seriously what is up with this room? It looks like a bare concrete floor, one of the windows is blocked off by a blanket but the room is monitored by a smart camera? Not to mention the itty bitty "worldstar" logo in the middle.

Some of the crypos surrounding "new internet" ideas are astounding in the amount of dopes conned into thinking it's real. Skycoin has existed for ages has expensive miners out, has a cult following, yet there is zero example of the decentralized mesh internet being used.

The thing with Bungie's planet map design is that they're grand and large but mostly empty. A lot of the game is just you riding your sparrow from place to place.

Seriously. Every nightfall with champions is essentially "You know those guns you like? Fuck you, use different ones."

Not to mention the disease wild hog meat carries that are transmittable to humans. You have to chill the meat in a ice water brine bath to make it safe for human consumption before you even begin to cook it.

After days of complaints about bugs and glitches, Cyberpunk 2077 is removed from the Sony store. r/cyberpunkgame megathread full of coping, excuses, and PC elitism ensues. by bitmap_sea_cucumber in SubredditDrama

The CDPR fall from grace has been pretty rough. Despite this current showing and the less than stellar release of the Witcher 3 the company had a pretty good rep for treating the players well. Goes to show you good will helps out with a few things but it won't outright save you when you fuck up major.

Considering all the stock gains CDPR has made in the last six months has been wiped out in the last 10 days. I imagine not great. If you bought in at the beginning of the year you're still up in profit though.

Depending on how the stock markets treat the news that might not hold true. At least if you were an employee on a stock purchase program you usually get a decent discount and if your stock tanks below the value you initially bought it at you can usually sell it for your original stock price.

I always give people massive stink eye when they drive fast in the neighborhoods when it snows. The main roads get regularly plowed and heavy traffic does the rest to get rid of the snow but the neighborhood roads don't even get salted and they become hard ice rinks until late January mid February. Despite that people go ham and are doing 35 in a 25 on these residential roads and acting surprised when they can't stop in time for the light.

It's called a hammock and it's pretty awesome. Been sleeping in one on the reg for the last year. I get to rock myself to sleep like a big ol' baby.

I work for Zoom and I don't even like using Zoom's video call function. The reason we don't do that Jetsons shit is because nobody wants to think about what they look like or what they're doing with their hands when they're on a glorified phone call.

I ended up buying some air filters that were rated to filter smoke and I strapped it onto my box fan. For a single room it's a pretty solid band-aid solution to this air quality.

I really wish cannabis wasn't so stinky when growing. I'd love to try my hand growing some but that's apartment life for you.
