the owner has to hire someone to clean it off and that comes from my rent.

Rent has little to do with maintenance. If it did, it would mean that higher rent lead to more maintenance. This is not the case. Landlords are incentivised to maximise margins (rent minus expenses). If they don't have to pay for maintenance while getting a certain rent level, then they will opt for not maintaining.

Rent level is the maximum level that landlords will set to drain from their tenants. It has little to do with the maintenance or condition of the residence. There are plenty of examples that show poor housing standards being expensive.

The solution: Land Value Tax

Is this guy actually cool in the eyes of the average white American guy's point of view?

Were they ever actually being critical?

Yes, they write satire. They can't be responsible for Poe's Law.

Also, knowledge workers have a higher average salary than laborers. No guesses for which one is better suited to working from home.

I figure as long as I make room it “shouldn’t” be a problem.

👍

As a cyclist, I'd say "welcome" because more people using the road means motorists are going to see more varied road users and thus be more conscious of them. So that should make the roads safer. I hope that reasoning works out.

15mph (24 km/h) is pretty quick. I could keep up with you, and I'm only using leg power. I average around 12mph.

There will never be a poop knife, or chili soap, or any of that here

My brother in Christ, do you already forget about the no pooping meme?
