Housing insecurity is a huge bugbear for middle class people, one I am still in the process of wrangling. We are brought up in such a way that the threat of housing insecurity becomes a thought terminating cliché, it is unthinkable, it is THE WORST, it feels like death. To the point that most middle class people can't even consider the notion of paying rent a bit late.
This fear is blown so much out of proportion. It's what gives landlords so much power, because most people are so deeply cowed, even if they don't think capitalism and its ways of domiating land and housing and people is right. They still go along with it, when mass organised rent strikes could be such easy and effective actions. Why obey landlords at all?

Gonna send this email to landlord, please copy, adjust and send to yours as well:
Hello,
I am writing to make some ground rules known, to be followed from here on out.
I will not be taking phone or voicecalls, as you have made it clear that I need everything in writing. You have not kept your word in the past. I expect that to change.
I will not be answering the same questions over and over again. If I have gone to the trouble of informing you of issues or even provided pictures and videos, I expect you to refer back to my email or text before asking me to provide the same information again. You can ask for clarifications if needed.
Unless specified otherwise, I give permission for you to share the information I have given you whith the relevant people needed to adress the issue, for example repair people, contractors, plumbers, chimney sweep. In fact you need to let them know what their tasks will be and make sure they come prepared, equipped and with enough human power and time to safely complete the necessary tasks.
I am not your slave driver. If a contractor arrives again unprepared and underequipped for the work at hand, I will not ask them to endanger their health by doing the task anyway.
You need to give me a reasonable amount of time to answer your questions before restating them. If a matter is not urgent, I may take a full work day to respond. If the matter is trivial, I may take two weeks. If I cannot give an answer yet, I will wait until I can actually answer your question (for example: "Was the problem fixed?" can only be answered after the contractor has had time to fix it).
I am willing to keep you up to date on the issues with the property, but you also need to fulfil your duties as owner and landlord. I am not going to go out of my way to do your work for you.
I also need you to give me the relevant information I need in order to fulfill my own duties as tenant. It would have been useful to get the contact information or at least company names of the usual services (trash collection, septic tank emptying, chimney sweep). I did ask about these upon moving in.

> “I think the best way to combat corporate #landlords is to make their model less profitable,” Nagy said. She said stronger tenant protections and rent stabilization laws are ways to achieve that. #Tenants may also withhold #rent when repairs aren’t being made. And more tenants are speaking directly to pension funds or universities that pool their money into hedge funds and real estate investment trusts to get a profit.

> a coalition headed by DSA and the Renters Action Network launched a proposal for a Renters Bill of Rights—a set of nine policy proposals designed to protect renters and boost their political power.

A little video of Galen's finished "Slumlord" sign. I bent the neon for him, and some of his sign painter buddies helped with the paint design.
Galen wears the "Slumlord" badge with pride- refusing to raise rent on his property in the rapidly gentrifying Hilltop neighborhood of Tacoma. The piece is inspired by another landlord with a coin operated gas meter on the stove (quarters for cooking time).
We love the clickity clackety of the mechanical incandescent bulb flasher in there- Galen mounted it so the whole metal "can" acts as an "amplifier". Galen loves anything mechanical. It was way fun being his Teachers Assistant for the class.
The ruby red glass in this came from Chihuly "Studio 1" in Tacoma (long since moved to Seattle)
