I should have expected a serial killer landlord

Page from Out on the Cutting Edge by Lawrence Block.

Maybe you could up the numbers a little if you did a really nice renovation. Do you know what that comes to?"
"Two million dollars?"
"Closer to three. That's for each building. Buying them cost me every cent I inherited from my parents, and they're mortgaged to the hilt. The rent roll barely covers payments and taxes and maintenance. I have a few tenants in each building who are paying close to market, and otherwise I couldn't keep the buildings. Matt, do you think it's fair that a landlord has to subsidize tenants by letting them hang on to an apartment for a tenth of what it's worth?"
"Of course not. The fair thing is for them to die and for you to make twelve million dollars."

This is the only picture i took at the sox game in san francisco tonight, right as things were getting wild. antonacci and murakami both just got hit, and colson’s about to hit a little bloop single

View from the third base line at oracle park. The giants are on the field and the sox are batting. Murakami is on first and antonacci is on second. Montgomery is batting. They’re all going to score pretty soon along with six more runs in the fourth 😬

33 year old Leqaa Kordia has FINALLY been released after one year in ICE custody. (📷: @gazamom) Leqaa came to the US ten years ago on a student visa. She was detained for her participation in a Palestine protest, held 1,500 miles away from home, and kept in harrowing conditions.

I just read the declaration that Kira Kelley asked J. Blackwell to consider. This immigrant describes being -unlawfully arrested -taken from one overcrowded & filthy prison to another over 19 days -held incommunicado & ICE never telling him a court ordered his release He describes an American gulag

CASE 0:26-cv-00749-NEB-DLM Doc. 67 Filed 02/03/26 Page 7 of 8
33. At the time of my release, I had been detained by ICE for about 19 days. In those days, ICE never told me why they detained me. They didn't tell me that a judge had ordered my release just five days into my detention. I only knew about the release order through my attorney.
34. My father was deported to Guatemala by ICE after he was detained with me. So was my
cousin. They were deported on January 23rd.
35. Right now, I am happy that I have been released. I am grateful I have my family and an attorney. Other people are not so lucky. I am trying to adjust to my life now but am still dealing with the emotional trauma of being detained. When I think of my time in detention, I think of so many ways I could have died there: the way my car was stopped in the middle of the road, the diseases I could have caught at the Whipple, the driver who was falling asleep at the wheel driving us from El Paso to New Mexico, and exposure to COVID multiple times.
I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct.

The federal shutdown is now about to affect millions of people who use SNAP - the food stamp program - and those same people cannot afford their energy bills. To get every dollar in people's pockets to go to food, not utility corporations, we need an emergency ban on shutoffs.

Sadly I never got to see D’Angelo in person but my favorite live D’Angelo moment was when he sang “How Does It Feel” for the first time in a decade in Paris (after leaving it out of early shows on that tour) and they went nuts just from the first chord then went on to sing that chorus pitch perfect:

thinking of this song a lot lately cassmccombs.bandcamp.com/track/the-ex...

lyrics for "The Executioner's Song" by Cass McCombs:

"The Executioner's Song"

I love the job almost as much as I do you
It's a good job
I may not get paid as much
But I more than make up
With an enormous sense of self-worth
My job, my job
My job, my job

Some people just work to pay the bills
And put bread on the table
I couldn't do that
I need feeling and purpose
My job, my job
My job, my job

Although I admit sometimes it's not very fun
In fact, it can be pretty stressful
At the end of the day
I know I begun and completed the work
Only by my own willpower

There is work that is play
There is play that is work
And play that is play
And work that is work
And in only one of these lies happiness
I'm a pretty luck guy
I love you and I love my job, my job
My job, my job

learning about the universe

Book: THE SYNCHRONIZED UNIVERSE
NEW SCIENCE OF THE PARANORMAL by
Claude Swanson, Ph.D.

Figure 13.25. 4-D Holographic Projection can cause the focused image to occur virtually anywhere in space-time. Here we show it appearing at a distance AX away from the source, and at a time AT later. The velocity at which this image "moves" as it is projected from its source would be calculated as distance divided by time, which can be much faster than the speed of light.
