  2. landlord is having the lawn & sprinkler system ripped out. It's the right thing to do, but then they're going to just put down gravel instead 🤮 .

    If I owned the place I'd put in native plants.

    I do hope the gophers find a way out from under the gravel (I'm sure they will) but I bet this also reduces the number of visits I get from the crows and other birds. Ah well.

  7. Renters in Wales (social and private) make sure you get your voices heard through the Annual Tenant Pulse Survey

    Important with the upcoming Senedd elections in 2026 - and you know the landlords WILL be making sure they get their voices heard!

  8. Why do landlords, who canonically are rich bastards, always pick the cheapest fixtures like faucets?

    It would literally save them money if they picked metal fixtures that last decades instead of plastic mix shitbits that decay in a couple of years.

    Sincerely: Renter sick of everything breaking down.

    (First it was toilet button....twice. Had to have hand shower swapped when it busted. Our shower fixtures are literally chipping off, and now our faucet is dying.)
