This happened to my parents in the 90s in Florida. They did a consultation with a lawyer and he told them to stop paying rent. So they did. Saved the money and used it to make a downpayment on their first house. I don’t know if it still applies but it’s probably worth a look.

thegr8goldfish@startrek.websiteto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Hot birds in your area iykyk30·13 days agoIistened to an episode of Conan Needs a Friend where he interviewed some bird guy who suggested that the bird that best resembles Conan is the Andean Cock of the Rock. Curiosity got the better of me so I searched for ‘Andean Cock of the Rock’. The first result was not a bird but was instead a poorly made deep fake of Dwayne Johnson breaking one off in a South American gentleman.

Alternatively, it would generate even more clicks were it about an exceptionally large being made of candy.

- Undermine
- Basic
- Liberties
- Ignore
- Constitutional
- Accountability
- ??? I’d rather my acronym be discarded than those files, assuming the turds comply with the subpoena. What’s the penalty if they don’t?

Look at How Blue Texas Could Be if Democrats Drew the Maps.5·19 days agoWe probably need an amendment to actually do redistricting fairly, but as long as one side is abusing the process, it doesn’t make sense for the other side to try to continue being ‘fair’. You’re just bringing a fart to a shit slinging contest.

In 20 years, we’ll have so many microbes capable of consuming plastic people will be removed about their packages not being able to effectively protect their goods from spoiling. The goldfish has spoken.
thegr8goldfish@startrek.websiteto Gaming@lemmy.world•Has Xbox Considered Laying One Person Off Instead Of ThousandsEnglish8·1 month agoThe author makes a pretty compelling case for letting Phil go. Can you imagine the owners of a sports team continuing to pay a Manager millions of dollars a year despite them getting their asses kicked every time they suit up?
I used to feel the same way about dogs (and children) but you really do come to love them when you get used to them.

thegr8goldfish@startrek.websiteto Progressive Politics@lemmy.world•Democratic establishment melts down over Mamdani's win in New York38·1 month agoOther Democrats see Mamdani — a state Assembly member with a history of controversial comments about Israel and policing — as politically toxic for a party whose national success depends on its ability to attract votes in less progressive places nationwide.
So, to the DNC, it’s better to see the winning Democratic candidate defeated in the general now because that will ensure victory in Alabama in a year or three? The propaganda machine will smear anyone who dares to run with a D next to their name. You might as well own it and embrace the positions your voters want.
