  • I’m sincerely happy you were able to leverage your talents into a solution that was constructive and rewarding for you, and presumably your clients.

    Having said that, if I had to guess, I suspect this strategy might not be as effective for about 99.99% or more of the general population, either for lack of desire or ability.



  • I really admire you looking out for the little guy. It’s hard enough for a landlord to make ends meet. Most of them are living your-paycheck-to-your-paycheck. It’s important to give them a little safety net for emergencies like 3rd vacations to luxury destination resorts, yachts, cosmetic surgery, personal chefs etcetera.

    Sometimes the world seems so bleak. Then I see a comment like this and I think to myself, “Maybe we’re gonna make it after all.”

    I’m getting really tired of this kind of doomerism. Look, just because a tariff-loving, bigoted republican president is inflating securities markets wildly beyond their historical maximum book values by orders of magnitude in the context of sharply rising unemployment and homelessness, doesn’t mean we’re revisiting 1930s economic conditions. So I don’t want to hear anymore about removed-environmental-protections this, and exponentially-increasing-environmental-disasters that. Just nut up, ignore the once-in-a generation, escalating geopolitical tensions, and go persecute some minorities just like Jesus Washington said to do in the Bible Constitution.

  • Thank you for the counterpoint. I agree it’s a fair and constructive one.

    How would you feel about treating it like workplaces that ban allergens on a case-by-case basis depending on the needs of their constituents and clients?

    For example, I was once in an organization that banned latex, especially balloons, because someone was severely allergic. However, most places don’t ban latex.
