We have a repair guy coming today because the brand new refrigerator the landlord installed isn't keeping our food cold enough. I used a thermometer the other day and found the items in the fridge were around 55°, and around 33° in the freezer. We're probably going to lose $100 or more worth of food, including a bunch of specialty ice cream we brought back from Montana.
 
So I loaded the dishwasher in the new place for the first time today and when I went to turn it on, it didn't. The breakers are fine, but the dishwasher apparently has no power. It just won't start.
 
This is all after the water heater went out the first week we moved in.
 
I'm not happy. What the Hell did the lady who lived here before us do to this place?

After spending over an hour listening to our former landlord gripe about literally everything in the final walkthrough after we moved out, the guy actually gave us back our full security deposit. To say I was shocked is a mild understatement.

You could just take those extra few dice and build them with the additional limitation. That’s probably the most accurate way to present it.

...and I just checked the voter registry here in OH to see if I was listed.  We just had an election back in May, voted with no issue...
 
...I've been removed.

Doing the right thing for the wrong reasons is still doing the right thing.

I seem to recall reading something back in the day along the lines of, "The United States and Great Britain are having a contest to see who can screw their country the most. Great Britain took the early lead with Brexit, but it turns out the United States was holding the trump card."
