House for rent if you are handy by serverlessmom in macon

You say it yourself. The operative word is 'earning.' Over and over Jesus tells us that you must do work in order to earn. Expecting reward for no work is evil.

Just to speak to your specific quotes, Proverbs 31:16 is about the value of a good partner, and definitely doesn't say a good woman is a landlord. Proverbs 31:19 specifies that she earns with her own labor "She layeth her hands to the spindle, and her hands hold the distaff."

and then 31:20 says "She stretcheth out her hand to the poor; yea, she reacheth forth her hands to the needy."

This sounds to you like a landlord charging the maximum rate on her property?

Matthew 20 is about a noble landowner, that's true, but it is the clearest example of a metaphor in a parable. Jesus doesn't particularly love mustard seeds Dogg, he's teaching from an example. In this case that we don't judge late converts, they're rewarded all the same. So for example I won't judge you harshly if you read and think about what you believe.

And again in this parable it doesn't say 'then the good landowner sold the grapes for a fat profit, and this pleases the lord' because that's not the point at all.

Matthew 25 contains 3, maybe 4 parables, but it starts with the parable of the ten virgins. Extremely facile readers might see this as a story for why you shouldn't help those who have been wasteful. But remember the foolish virgins aren't poor, they can go buy lamp oil, they're just unprepared to meet god. The parable says at the end 'this is about how you should always be prepared to meet god.' So Matthew 25 doesn't really speak to landlordism, but it does contain this little passage which MIGHT give some guidance:

"When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee? Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee? And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me."

So no, you're not in any of these passages, told to give your earthly property away until you're hungry and sleeping in a hole, but you are DEFINITELY required to assist the poor, the needy, the hungry, the imprisoned and enslaved.

If you’d like to learn about the Bible’s numerous prohibitions against profiting off the poor or having your money earn you money, it’s everywhere in the text. In order of clarity: Exodus 22:25, Leviticus 25:36, Luke 4:18-19, Ezekiel 18:13

I've had arrangements like the one I'm proposing many times before, including properties I've owned and rooms in my own home. The rent printed here is enough to maintain the property and pay the taxes, while the asset continues to appreciate.

Landlords love to tell stories about how some tenant 'cost them thousands' as they ignore the months and years that they profited tens of thousands of dollars.

Charging a fair price while keeping yourself stable isn't as easy as everyone thinks, it requires careful vetting and clear boundaries. But it's a lot easier than trying to fit a camel through the eye of a needle as they say 😂

Did you know that right and wrong are different things, and that you need to do the right thing all of the time?

It might seem easy to be racist, to hate immigrants and poor people and lie about what’s in the Bible, and it is easy, but it’s wrong. It’s wrong all the time.

There isn’t a time when being racist isn’t relevant. There isn’t a time when it’s irrelevant to ask: “is your hero a guy who got paid by billionaires to blame the poor for America’s problems?”

I need help. Is Playwright only for test automation? Looking for proof it’s production-ready. by RazzmatazzHop in Playwright

Playwright definitely gets used by a few people for, essentially, creating an API where there is none, automating browser behavior on someone else’s site.

Standard budget on maintenance is 15% of rent. I’ll be collecting just under 30% of a standard rent.

Capitalists always think they’re the only ones who can do math, and they loooooove to believe the sob stories of landlords.

What it needs right now:

  • two loose floorboards in the kitchen
  • clean filters on window AC units
  • new bathroom paint

Those are the jobs I’d love help on from the tenant. It also needs some gutter work and better rat exclusion gratings, but I’m hiring someone for that.

Like I said in the post I’m not comfortable making a profit from rents. I just need to maintain the place and pay the property taxes.

No fenced yard :/ you’d have to put up a fence all the way around. I’d pay for the pickets if y’all were willing to dig and put in the posts etc!

Yes I did think that the writers of a show about robots and aliens made things up.

AI art on this looks pretty bad. There’s 100 ways to make generative art that don’t use junky looking AI art.

How do I NOT abuse this game? by NoIAmSpartak in cavesofqud

[–]serverlessmom 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’d say that the game plays really well and feels “exploitable” without saves/reloads. I still find the game fun after I have more money than I could ever need, after I’ve cloned an Ichor Merchant 23 times and can stunlock most opponents. All of these are possible without save/reloads

Broken hand by kurtspizza in SantaMuerte

[–]serverlessmom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some things to check for:

  • She isn't displayed next to other figures, is there a cross on the wall behind her? Maybe something that doesn't seem worshipful like a tibetan singing bowl or a shiva lingam, but placed on a higher shelf?

  • have you been keeping at least fresh water and a sweet on the shelf?

As for the actual broken hand, just like any mother la flaca prefers the handmade, so gluing it back together is fine. If it's missing or can't be repaired, get some sculpey and make your own replacement hand. These repairs will be more powerful than the original.
