  • A landlord cannot just come on top the lawn and start ripping it up without the tenant’s permission.

    On one hand, yes. On the other hand that’s only as enforceable as a tenant can fight it.

    In practice it happens. Unless the tenant has the resources or there’s a legal advocacy group dedicated to that specific issue, owners tend to be able to do whatever they want so long as they use the argument of ‘protecting my property’.

    The settlement and restitution just ends up something like the owner keeps their stuff there and maybe you get to terminate your lease tomorrow without being forced to pay out the whole eight remaining months of the lease. But that’s anecdotal.



  • The poop drop is a signal that locates the large slow moving animal for predators. They can’t clear the area faster than a jaguar arrives to investigate.

    So they wait until it looks safe, climb down and put their shit at the base of a tree and climb back up.

    But jaguars who have located a sloth also know they can wait for it to come to them. Which is why sloths try not to be located.



  • I hear you, though I am more inclined to take a Gramscian view that cultural hegemony of capitalist/imperial core entities convert those anarchists to libertarians, or some form of compromised anarcho-syndicalism or libertarian socialism. So I wouldn’t call them anarchists.

    But it’s not a True Scotsman thing for me, so I don’t fundamentally disagree with that perspective.
