yeah one of my old coworkers had a pretty nice landlord that didn't jack up the rent constantly; I guess its the rare inverse case of the Small Landlord Tyrant

they're rare but small-time landlords that know what the gently caress they're doing understand the value of avoiding tenant churning

my rent doubled one year when i was living in a city with no rent control

my rent in ontario goes up usually around 2.5% per year

i'll take the rent control over the benevolence of a faceless corp or wanna-be real estate mogul any day

The action by Elliott has been met with shock and horror by many people in Silicon Valley who are agonizing over the possibility that the cult-of-the-founder mentality that keeps tech’s leaders in power is at risk. This week I’ve been on the receiving end of constant can-this-possibly-happen texts and direct messages about the dire situation Mr. Dorsey is in, especially since he is without the protection of a special share structure.

My understanding of the "big guns" is they give you twilight anaesthesia, which is where they give you enough local to not die of shock but otherwise you're in extreme pain the whole time, but it's okay because you won't remember any of it the next day.

fines are literally just society saying that some laws don't apply to rich people.

scaling fines to someone's net worth is at least a step in the right direction and ought to be something done everywhere

They don't even have to get out of the car or even stop. See someone speeding or whatever -> roll up behind them -> note the tag -> drive past and snap a pic of the driver. No cars have to stop, no one in danger, ticket in the mail.

in a lot of places in canada we have photo radar

they set it up, it takes a picture if you speed by, you get your ticket in the mail a few days later

you don't get points on your license because they don't verify who is actually driving but it's a lot less dangerous overall
