The house we’re at has a bathroom with a door to the back deck so we can use that. Place is actually pretty legit. They have the main house, an ADU/in-law suite, and a detached garage. Nicely done backyard. Pool isn’t huge, but good enough to chill with a few people.

Whoever does it manic. Having strangers show up to piss and puke in your pool for some cash is wild.

This particular human just sucks.
:notwrong: Ultimately we shouldn’t be discriminating against any group of people. It’s part of why I’m so frustrated by this though. I’ve had some kind of close relationship with four or five trans people. I’m cool with MahVal, but the other 3-4 were poor and I don’t like that I now have this bias.

Also no one should get special treatment without a legitimate reason. I can’t take 50% of my with time off and neither can anyone else where I work that’s a she or a he. This piece of shit can. Plenty of other similar things I’ve outlined as well.
It's natural to have a bias, but you recognize it and I know you'll give someone a chance to show their character before acting up on it.

That's the best anyone can do.

Agreed.

Griff's employer doesn't want to get sued, and this person is playing the system. Same as anyone else who does it IMO. It's not a trans issue just a shitty person who knows the loopholes issue.

It will take some time for all this to shake out and find it's place in society. Until then, ugh. It's frustrating at times.

It was enjoyable, but yeah, I wouldn’t do it for the reasons you mentioned. Same with putting my car on Turo.. cool that some people are cool with doing that, but I just don’t trust the general populace to care for my things the way I care for my things.

I wouldn’t even be surprised if this POS is still ‘she’ at home and the whole ‘they’ thing is just to further arm itself with amo to screw everyone for its own benefit. It did say that it and its wife are lesbians while on a call with me, which implies female.

We saw it pop up in Charlotte a year or two ago then seemingly disappeared due to liability problems. Part of me thinks, you paid out the ass for a pool that you probably use only 10-20 days/year… so yeah, share the resources and make some money… but also, I wouldn’t want to do it for reasons described here.

I think you have to be all in or out on this stuff. Like if you have a desirable location and can throw a tiny house out back and make an extra $3500/month, seems decent. If you’re renting your home twice/year while you’re on vacation, it feels very not worth the risks.

Not to mention, as far as european union goes, greece is literally the most lenient, as long as you have a turkish passport, you dont need a visa. Especially to the islands as they're literally 30-50 mins from turkish territories and now because of our greedy people that rips off tourists left and right, greece is cheaper now. If i were compare greece and turkey, it would be like coke and pepsi. Now that we have the ig bullshit going on right now, but lot of people still happen to access via vpn :lol:

All I see is a new form of privilege, I thought we all wanted to wash our hands of white privilege, but we're now all super cool with this new form of it? Whatever man, I'll take the :aintcare: approach too, but it's already taking a toll on your work sitch directly. I'm sure once enough people are bit, things will level out (hopefully)
Being frightened of Alphabet citizen lawsuits is no way to live your life and will turn you into a Cheeto voter right soon

Maybe so, maybe not. Don't let them live rent free in your head.

People who act like that get their cumuppance in time. Imagine the reference your current employer will give when they try to switch jobs.

Hit the trails in the nature park next to our place this morning for my cardio. Found some bear scat out there. It makes sense, but I also never considered that there would be bears there. I’ve seen deer, rabbits, squirrels, and all sorts of birds, but the bear evidence was definitely unexpected. Wonder when/if I’ll ever see one wander into our neighborhood.
