I'm all for hating on landlords, but the poor dog did nothing wrong.

The dog gets free stimulation and entertainment all day.

I read the post title as "assigned landlord at birth" for a moment, and I was like, yeah that is probably true for most people with money.

Now to restore cosmic balance: bitch fuck bitch fuck.

I've looked into property management when a duplex near me went up for sale. Your assessment is not wrong. There are many laws and regulations (at least in the USA) around buying rental properties that make it incredibly difficult for new people to get into landlording under the guise of making it harder on landlords. In reality its just a bunch of financial hoops and burdens that established landlords can easily step over but prevents others from becoming landlords.

I if wanted to buy that duplex, I'd have to put like 40% down just to break even and absorb the risk.

I mean, I can't say I'm against measures that discourage more people from joining the leech class like that.

That 40% down would also reduce the rate at which established landlords can expand. For 40% down, $1m can finance $2.5m of property. For 20% down, it can finance $5m. For 10% down, it can finance $10m. And that money could be used to bid on more residences or to bid higher on the same number of residences.

I really hate people who censor naughty words like bitch and fucking in screenshots. If you're too scared to see the word written, maybe just don't share the thing at all.

[–] brbposting@sh.itjust.works 3 points 5 months ago

Censoring is the meta to avoid algorithmic suppression / prevent demonetization. Booooo corporate ad-supported platforms.

The Internet is full of little bitches that think sky daddy will be mad if they use their straw suckers and food tasters in an evil way.

[–] ArmokGoB@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 5 months ago

We shouldn't be giving them a platform.

[–] bricklove@midwest.social 1 points 5 months ago

Especially when they censor the letters with shapes that resemble the letters. A vertical line covering an i is like blurring just the middle finger when someone flips the bird

[–] jet@hackertalks.com 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

This person sounds like a actively malicious neighbor. Instead of taking feedback to make life better they actively mistreat a dog in "revenge".

Real "I'm the main character" vibes

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Yeah what a piece of shit honestly.

"I pay money so I can't possibly be loud. My revenge for you saying so is torturing your dog and further straining this situation"

And then multiple commenters are praising this piece of shit's behavior. Kinda sounds like OP is on their side too.

[–] nyctre@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

We're on the same server so can't be a federation issue. Unless I blocked some idiots. Can't see any commenter praising the behavior.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Underneath the post, in the image, there are two commenters happy about it. And OP seems so wrapped up in landlord hating that they're blinded to any other concerns.

[–] nyctre@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

Oh, you meant tumblr commenters. My bad. Yeah, fuck those guys.
