03:05 schestowitz; even 1 in 1000 is a lot

04:02 Aristophanes; yep natural disposition
04:02 schestowitz; the lose weight gain more is common
04:02 schestowitz; i forgot the logic behind it
04:02 Aristophanes; you just end up building muscle instead of burning fat because its not really fat
04:02 schestowitz; better to keep steady weight
04:02 schestowitz; skin elasticity and all

06:37 whitenigger; it's true
06:37 whitenigger; although the "scientific consense" reached only that far, to confirm the genetic roots are common
06:38 whitenigger; but the LANGUAGE roots of both semitic/bantu language and proto-germanic, too have some commonalities
06:39 whitenigger; that, explicite, if you knew some proto-germanic, such as how to pronounce Europes oldest and longest lasting currency - the PFENG (Fang, bantu, catch of a hunter) - fur trade
06:39 whitenigger; for a while i was thinking, the heavy jiddish influence, in leipzig, was a foreign language influence, due to the trade-city context
06:40 whitenigger; instead, now i am convinced, the jiddish/semitic language origin, is the native one of Leipzig, and NOT a foreign language trait of the jews who lived there
06:40 whitenigger; so, in a way, i could add jew to my nick alike
06:41 whitenigger; they exterminate all of this kind, to eradicate the evidence, i think
06:41 whitenigger; that's why, it's not archaic language and cultural heritage, it's just presented as sub-human trash language
06:41 whitenigger; *consensus
06:43 whitenigger; proto-germanic, could be, rather close to semitic and/or a little bantu
06:43 whitenigger; meaning then, too the language originated and evolved among well, white africans, or however to interpret this
06:44 whitenigger; this means, too, some english language roots, evolved in africa; not only some genetic/biological traits which are almost 100% identical, but too alot of cultural/language may have already
06:45 whitenigger; anyway, there is only little evidence remaining for this, because the native speakers, in germany, are eradicated
06:50 whitenigger; the "denarius" currency designation, too is noteworthy - is suspect the "Pfeng" currency, which germany abandoned since Euro shitcoin, is the older one
06:51 whitenigger; and denarious, got a twist to it too, depending on translation: in english it's close to "denier/denial", in germanic language denarious is the "Diener" the servant
06:52 whitenigger; really weird, anyway, slavery could be as old as fur trade and hunting was, and it's deeply codified in proto-germanic and relatives
06:53 whitenigger; although i refuse to conlude with any moral interpretation; and 1000 years ago and earlier, there wasn't any black people, in germany, to enslave
06:53 whitenigger; for this, such as myself exist
06:54 whitenigger; in this apartheid regime, they established, with the methods mentioned
06:54 whitenigger; in 1990, they removed the fence around east-germany, which was a giant slave labor camp
06:54 whitenigger; i remember history, rather well
06:55 whitenigger; anyway, how many of the german soldiers, who died at the eastern front, how many of them died in forced labor camps as prisoners of war?
06:56 whitenigger; in 1945, several million young men disappeared there, and often during war, most do not die from battle action, but instead they died from forced labor, stravation, disease
06:56 whitenigger; anyway, i'll knever know, what happened to my grandfather there
06:57 whitenigger; as a white nigger, grandfathers are merely some nazi piece of shit they say here, in "germany"
06:57 whitenigger; i am not some type of militant guy, you know
06:58 whitenigger; although, i did have one or another phone call, maybe, i'll try to, spread some word, into former Stasi or something, not sure, if the message passes through
06:59 whitenigger; to my knowledge, they didn't keep their firearms at home, as they do in switzerland

07:01 whitenigger; a former east-german border guard, i talked to recently, argued, if he could, he would re-establish the wall, and build it 5 meters higher this time
07:02 whitenigger; he is an idiot, but who cares

18:21 DaemonFC; Not for us.
18:21 DaemonFC; At least not now.
18:21 schestowitz; cooling
18:21 schestowitz; youm know
18:21 DaemonFC; He bought the leases with the building.
18:21 schestowitz; but they will end
18:21 schestowitz; then things will "cool"
18:21 DaemonFC; Yes, ours ends in November.
18:22 DaemonFC; The lady next door had her lease expire last month.
18:22 DaemonFC; Mark told her just go month to month until he could "get around to her".
18:22 DaemonFC; Then he sold it.
18:22 DaemonFC; So she just got a new landlord she doesn't know and has no lease.
18:23 DaemonFC; schestowitz, I've been assessing the area.
18:23 DaemonFC; The low end rent is usually around $1,000-$1,100 now.
18:24 DaemonFC; So I expect ours will go up to about that.
18:24 DaemonFC; If they go much higher, everyone might as well just move out and at least get a nice apartment without moldy fixtures and stuck windows.

18:41 DaemonFC; schestowitz, The new landlord says they plan to make some improvements to the building and they don't expect everything to be perfect right now.
18:42 DaemonFC; Looks like they might plan to get rid of my old friend the cement mixer.
18:45 schestowitz; oh
18:46 mjg59_; schestowitz: What is channel policy on people turning up with racial slurs in their nick?
18:52 DaemonFC; schestowitz, The new landlord says other than improvements, they plan to run the building much like Mark did.
18:52 DaemonFC; He says they've been doing business in Chicago for years.
18:53 DaemonFC; schestowitz, Yes, I expect rent will probably go way up at our next renewal.
18:53 DaemonFC; Mark was cutting us a break because we'd been here for so long and weren't bugging anyone.
18:53 DaemonFC; Who knows what to expect from this guy?
18:53 DaemonFC; Plan for rent to be increased to "market rate".
18:54 DaemonFC; He won't get away with more than about $1,100 in any event.
18:55 DaemonFC; schestowitz, It was nice while it lasted.
18:56 DaemonFC; But I have no right to expect cheap rent from the new guy just because that's what Mark gave us.
18:56 DaemonFC; Mark could have charged us market rate if he chose to. I was able to build up some savings because he didn't.

19:00 DaemonFC; schestowitz, It is what it is. I told the older lady next door about the sale this morning.
19:01 DaemonFC; I figured that the old landlord couldn't do anything about it anymore.
19:01 DaemonFC; I told her I would have said something sooner except I was worried that Mark would keep the building and be angry with me.
19:05 DaemonFC; schestowitz, I'm going to talk to a banker about a mortgage on Friday.
19:05 DaemonFC; It's a bit early to panic, but I do want to know what my options are.
19:05 DaemonFC; Rent is getting out of control too.
19:05 DaemonFC; Mark was the only thing standing between us and a 25% increase.
19:05 DaemonFC; Minimum.
19:06 DaemonFC; schestowitz, Mandy doesn't get why I tell him to lose all of the extra shit and quit buying stuff.
19:07 DaemonFC; This ain't my first time down at the rodeo.
19:07 DaemonFC; I've had to move and lose everything too many times.
19:09 DaemonFC; mjg59_, Got room in your guestroom? :P
19:09 DaemonFC; We could rent that from you and Buffy if you are a "sharp" negotiator.
19:09 DaemonFC; Might get you through this downturn in the housing market.
19:11 DaemonFC; schestowitz, I don't think it would be logical to just outright throw us out.
19:11 DaemonFC; But they might offer us a lease with terms that are much harsher than what Mark did.
19:11 DaemonFC; The guy was coming through here with his teenage son and posting letters on the doors.
19:12 DaemonFC; I can't find his business registered with the Secretary of State.
19:12 DaemonFC; Or IDOR.
19:12 DaemonFC; It's a post office box in Streamwood, Illinois.
19:12 DaemonFC; My assessment is that these are "buy it to own it" people.
19:13 DaemonFC; Middle class. Immigrant family (Indian).
19:13 DaemonFC; Probably just trying to run a small business.
19:13 DaemonFC; I can tell you they're going to have their hands full on this place.
19:13 DaemonFC; Between mold and mildew, rotten wood all over the place, bad air conditioners...
19:14 DaemonFC; Mark wasn't bothering to evict anyone for months.
19:14 DaemonFC; So they get to take care of anyone who started stiffing Mark and ran off.
19:17 DaemonFC; schestowitz, It's bad living with bipolar disorder and having to steel yourself to deal with anyone.
19:17 DaemonFC; I've constructed a demeanor for this that I can keep up for a while if I have to talk business with someone or something.
19:18 schestowitz; ok
19:19 DaemonFC; It's hard to describe but it's not natural for me. It's like having to set up a buffer between what I'm thinking and saying and to control my body language willfully. It's like, forcing yourself to behave logically when that's not where your mind wants to be.
19:19 DaemonFC; It's in there and your brain is like the city dump, and you have to make it seem calm, logical, ordered, and structured.
19:19 DaemonFC; Then it falls apart later but who cares because you've retreated back into where nobody sees you that way.

19:21 DaemonFC; schestowitz, I asked my last psychiatrist if we could try ECT.
19:21 DaemonFC; And they were totally against this.
19:22 DaemonFC; Probably would have meant more paperwork for them or something.
19:22 DaemonFC; The medication doesn't work very well.
19:22 DaemonFC; I mean, it has some effect. It slows me down to an extent.
19:23 DaemonFC; I'm surprised that my behavior off my meds didn't get me into very serious trouble.
19:23 DaemonFC; I don't know about psychiatry. I don't think it's advanced very far in decades on this problem.
19:24 DaemonFC; They figure out new things to call stuff, and they don't make progress.
19:24 DaemonFC; It reminds me of Windows. There are new releases with a coat of paint.
19:24 DaemonFC; It distracts from "What are you actually doing?"
19:25 DaemonFC; And that's the DSM and how they update it.
19:26 DaemonFC; schestowitz, If they want to fix everything that's wrong with this place they're going to need another $2.3 million.
19:26 DaemonFC; I hope they're ready for what they've just bought.
19:26 DaemonFC; They should talk to the tenants about the place before they buy.
19:27 DaemonFC; They'll never get their investment back at the rent they can charge on this place.
19:27 DaemonFC; They're going to have to remove everything including the doors.
19:28 DaemonFC; schestowitz, My guess is they'll gut the rooms as they become available.
19:28 DaemonFC; Mom said her landlord told her he's never been able to fully remodel any of his buildings because by the time a person moves out someone needs to move in tomorrow and says don't even worry about cleaning it. They will.
19:29 DaemonFC; schestowitz, It doesn't sound like they really care what shape things are in like the trim and doors and stuff. They anticipated that.
19:30 DaemonFC; It's all coming out anyway.
19:30 schestowitz; so prices will go up
19:30 schestowitz; to make up for the "investment'
19:30 DaemonFC; So I don't really have to bicker with anyone and go "You know, I haven't lived here since 1971. I don't know who flooded the bathroom 20 years ago."
19:30 DaemonFC; schestowitz, Probably at some point.
19:31 DaemonFC; schestowitz, I'm going to throttle back on the 401(k) in a few months and get several of Mandy's paychecks that look bigger in case we have to move. Then dial it back up.
19:31 DaemonFC; Landlords want to see higher income. Once you're in they don't care as long as the rent's not late.
19:32 DaemonFC; schestowitz, Chevy says my Buick is taking a little longer than they figured but I can pick it up tomorrow evening.

19:33 DaemonFC; schestowitz, I took a pen flashlight while my car was up on the lift.
19:34 DaemonFC; I know about what to expect under there for the next few years.
19:34 DaemonFC; Probably 5 years from now it'll need new fuel lines.
19:34 DaemonFC; We'll worry about that when we get there.
19:34 DaemonFC; The parts that looked real bad are the ones that are coming off right now anyway.
19:35 DaemonFC; schestowitz, This was from back when GM designed their cars somewhat logically.
