  • You’re right, OP likely isn’t responsible for AC. That’s why the owner controls the AC, likely because they are legally required to provide AC. That’s what I said originally.

    However, it is usually written into the law that tenants can’t waste landlord provided utilities, and this sounds like the argument that the landlord is making to the town. It sounds like this is just an excuse for the landlord to kick OP out, but this isn’t an argument that I’m making is good.

    You keep mixing me up with the landlord.

    Edit: It turns out I am somewhat wrong. CA law requires that, if AC is provided, it must be restored by the landlord in case the AC breaks at the landlord’s cost alone. Tenants are legally able to withhold rent due to a broken AC.

    Therefore, there is no legal way for OP as a tenant to take over AC costs.


  • I haven’t read the agreement, in part because OP didn’t provide it. I’m just providing a probable means in which the landlord could be using in order to push OP out on the street.

    A requirement to provide a means of air conditioning is common in the warmer parts of the USA; it is a reason why the summer increased death toll stays so low despite lethal summer temperatures. It also depends on how the law is written; someone else would need to read the law to see if opening a window is considered acceptable or not.

    And for everyone making trying to make a moral argument to me about this, I’m not making a moral argument. I’m trying to explain the possible legal mechanism that is occurring where the landlord is trying to push out OP as a way for OP to look at ways to defend themselves.


  • Your lease may not specifically say that you have to keep windows closed, but it is likely that there is a requirement for the landlord to provide air conditioning. Requirements like this usually have a stipulation that the renter not waste the provided utility. That’s what your landlord is likely dinging you with, since the landlord is providing AC.

    The only way to deal with it is that you’d have to sign off on taking ownership of the air conditioning. However, since it sounds like you have roommates given your fear of catching COVID at home, that doesn’t seem likely.

    It also seems likely that this is going to follow you to whatever rental living arraignment you have. Unless you are contractually taking full ownership of providing air conditioning to a liveable temperature, you’re going to run into someone telling to keep the windows closed.




  • But dub con hetero and original mpreg Omegaverse fiction kind of answers some of the underlying questions that OP is asking.

    The sexy werewolf in these stories exhibit certain traits which align with the male gender over the female gender. Outside of furry fiction, I don’t know what a woman werewolf taps into.

    In contrast, vampires seem to be more gender balanced. There are a lot of stories out there of a woman vampire seducing an acolyte and her being a woman can be part of the story and not distract from the allure.











  • There are some communities that are made which aren’t made for beginners. They are made for in depth fans who want to have conversations deeper than helping new people getting into whatever. Moreso, if they haven’t hit an Eternal September event, then new people have to adapt to the old culture rather than the other way around.

    I imagine that Linux is esoteric enough and picks various platforms which keeps an Eternal September from happening. Because of that, they aren’t going to bend to new users like other online communities are forced to.
