@JourneymanGeek When my life is less crazy, I want to pick your brain at length about that kind of stuff.

@Jolenealaska always happy to

and love a challenge

@Stephie I thought this is a use for leftover peels :D

I am officially being evicted.

Doesn't that sound like fun?

It does not

I'm gambling that it actually isn't going to come to the point of my landlord being able to actually kick me out, but- worst case scenario-

I have put up with their crap for too long. This has to come out in court.

So I have stopped paying my rent. As expected, I was served eviction papers on Friday.

The very nature of my fight with this particular landlord is that it will be as public as I can make it.

Do you have somewhere else to go?

Back home to Iowa with my tail between my legs.

ah :/

Done that, though I suspect I had a good 20-30 years on ya when I did :D

And wasn't Iowa. And other things

Holy crap - paradigm shift

I thought you were really young?!

I mean younger :D

I was in my late teens. Had it all planned out :D

I'm 36. That's geriatric on the internet :D

OK, the universe can stand down :)

I like being able to say that I was born during the Summer of Love (1967). I'm 52.

1983, Pretty uneventful year :D

Not to me!

I starred in Othello that year! :)

That was a big deal in the life of me.

XD

@Stephie this is my fun box :D

RIght now I have forged in fire on one screen, 2x chat windows (one on the 4K, one on the pen tablet)

@Jolenealaska I mean it was pretty important to me, but in general :D

I bet I can really surprise people here with very little effort.

Argh, actually there will be a little effort involved.

I'm constitutionally incapable of posting a picture of my apartment without tidying first.

@Jolenealaska all the mess is on the other side :D

I had to clean up the desk to be able to install the monitor arms

In my typical TMI fashion, here's what I told Legal Aid about my eviction case:

Since almost everyone here has mod powers anyway, I'm deleting that. It's still "public", I'll repost if anyone without mod powers wants to see it.

Yep

It's a gamble, but I started it.

If I lose, I will be very much not OK. But I don't plan to lose.

Oh Ash, I didn't notice your lack of blue.

here:

@Jolenealaska they've not been a mod a while. Sometimes I think that's a wise choice ._.

Today I can still plead ignorance about the whole damn thing.

Do we even have a TL these days?

Yup. on MSE for now

It was supposed to be moved back once we fixed a few things but... uhm

@Jolenealaska ^ :D

Thanks

I've been there, but I always got there through a link in the description of the old one.

I haven't yet mastered object permanence.

More on the eviction drama for anyone who might be interested:

Found one use for the leftover orange peels: Dumping a strip or two in a G&T (with a floral tonic water).

More suggestions welcome.
