Ironic that one of the biggest complaints about AI these days is that it's stealing from artists, and the OP couldn't even follow the CC-BY-NC license that xkcd is released under...

50/50 odds it's a bear.

You are allowed to say "fucked" 🤣

Damn you meme, making me learn a new word.

I can't force anyone to uncensor a post, but I can be annoying in the comments if they don't.

Fuck, now I have to say fuck ten time to balance out the five censored fucks in this fucking post. Fuck this fucking noise, you're allowed to say fuck on the fucking internet for fuck's sake. Fuck.

Landlords do provide services: property maintenance and not having to worry about selling the place when you leave. Are landlords paid way too much for these services? Hell yes. That's more an issue of inadequate supply though, in my opinion.
