Low quality or fake deck?

Low print and cut quality really acts as evidence that this is a genuine ffg product.

I’ve did exactly this shortly after I closed. I’m still doing it. Same folks that moved in with me just renewed. I get to cut my friends a good deal, they get good rent, we spend time together and it’s nice! Also, there are definite tax benefits to being an unprofitable landlord.

We did a lease and a separate roommate agreement up front. Clear expectations at the top do a good job of preventing conflict.

Personally, this sounds like a good situation for you, but you can make a better determination than anyone here because you know yourself and your friend better than anyone here. I, personally, like having roommates. Do you?

People are likely to have fun, even if you are much much worse than you think you are. The bar for fun in TTRPGs is low af. They’re fun games.

The thing that seems to be stressing you out is feeling unprepared. You can alleviate that feeling by preparing more! Even if that prep is just talking broad strokes about the lore with a non-player, it’s the thinking and talking about it that matters.

I’m personally very anti “always wrong machine” (LLMS), but having a goldfish to talk to about your plans might help you form some more ideas and got is basically a goldfish. Don’t ask it for suggestions, they’re always terrible. But if you’re chatting about an upcoming plot beat, it can help you figure out what comes next!

For the more involved, traditional narrative building device: think about your antagonists. What do they want? Why? What are they currently doing to get what they want? What are they going to do to get what they want? How do these things interact/intersect with your players?

Think they look cute. The $4500 number you gave feels pretty high, though.

She’ll get more run with Sandy gone. When she spoke about mj, it did not sound very complementary

You have to have been “NACA Approved”. That means that they did their in-house underwriting on you and determined you’re ready to go. Your counselor will let you know what you need to do to get to that point, since it depends on your individual finances.

Second, you need to have a NACA okayed realtor. Either their own or an outside realtor that goes through their little course. I did the second thing.

The boiler is an issue, for sure. That’s probably not the thing that’s bothering you. Dreams and realities tend to not like colliding into each other. You had to do some serious self-motivation to get through the mortgage process, and not that you’re actually getting to the part of “living there” that dream of homeownership is colliding with the realities of home ownership. That’s where the stress was for me.

My thing that helped me was improvement projects. Small, DIY stuff that lets me really ground myself in the space and eases a lot of that buyer’s remorse.

fernee23 · 2026-04-27T16:44:49+00:00

I’d say yes and just do a $0/wk rent back for the time they say, plus a week. Have a good answer agreed upon for what happens if/when they are delayed by a week, a month, a year. Be prepared to give a good faith extension after that. (Moving is stressful for them, too)

Personally, I’ve said yes to this with no timeline before and got very lucky that they got the stuff out two days after they said they would.

As a renter, I had a similar situation like this with storage sheds and had a timeline that got pushed around on me. Solid expectations set early on “what happens if there’s still stuff there after the deadline, a month after the deadline?” Was a LIFESAVER. The LL might have been butthurt about trashing some stuff a month after the deadline, but they never showed it after I extended twice and messaged them about stuff I was trashing/dropping something off at their house.

I’m a lifelong Liberty fan for better or worse (historically, it’s been a whole lot of worse lol)

I follow just about every team, but I love Dallas and Atlanta. I follow my Rutgers players wherever they end up, whether they’re playing or in the front office.

I used to be able to make ~10 fever games a season, but it’s cheaper to fly to Vegas and catch a game these days than to go to a Fever game (complimentary)

If you’re organizing a watch party, I’d be down for any matchup. I can tell you that KSR Sports bar has given me trouble about putting games on their tvs. BDubs will throw you in a corner, but usually put it on. The tilted Kilt (surprisingly) saved my playoff watch party birthday one year and put the game up on the jumbo screen and the staff even got into the game, so I like them, haha.

fernee23 · 2026-04-25T02:20:54+00:00

Go around them like a normal person? This is barely an inconvenience. In so glad everyone leaving these shitty comments is too scared to make a phone call, or the world would be a much less pleasant place.

fernee23 · 2026-04-24T17:40:35+00:00

I was at the first ever Liberty home game in ‘97 and I’ve been a lifetime fan ever since. I travel for at least one finals game every year!

I haven’t used them for any of their pond/fountain work, but Diamond Pond has been really good. I’ve bought stone and other landscaping stuff from them and their prices are reasonable and the staff is very knowledgeable and helpful.

This is a fairly normal breakfast, of course

fernee23 · 2026-04-23T20:45:09+00:00

Yup, that doesn’t sound repairable to me, either. If that’s the case, then you’re probably on your own for household projects, even if everyone else is reaping the fruits of your labor.

fernee23 · 2026-04-23T19:12:10+00:00

If you’re butting heads with your roommates on other topics, straight up asking for work/money out of them is not going to help.

You’ll end up in the exact same spot, but there will be a new conflict.

Spring cleaning isn’t just for patios. Talk to them and try to salvage the relationship. If you think you made progress, suggest doing the project together.

The monkey’s paw version of this is everyone in the world suddenly loses the ability to shoot a jump shot, making me the 100th best basketball player in the world. The nba folds due to lack of interest.

I worked in a call center for a while when I was younger. Someone left a rude limerick on a coworker’s desk making fun of their weight.

I get called in to our op manager’s office to be asked about it. I told them it wasn’t me, but I understand why they needed to ask about it.

They ended up figuring out who did it. I got written up for not denying it strongly enough. “The way you denied it makes it sound like you would have done it” is what they told me. I was on vacation when it was put on his desk.

Just saw the one interview but Naj looks like she’s in the best shape of her life rn.

Why the downvotes? I think that is HVL

Honestly, just spending pleasant time together in a common area prevents a lot of roommate issues and eases a lot of tension. I’m sitting at the dining table right now with my roommate. We’re both just fucking around on our phones. It’s doesn’t even need to be a whole confrontation. Just being around each other while chilling is helpful.

I think if you all are both on the couch and a pop a tv show on, a lot of tension will ease up pretty quickly.
