It is so fucking ridiculous.
Hey, don't worry about it. Nest full of vampires, you come get me, okay. Box full of puppies, that's more of a judgement call.

Can you withhold part of June's rent, sara? That will get their attention.

I've got another two and a half hours of work to go, and I just want to fall asleep.
I'm desperate for a nap, but I have the feeling taking a nap today would result in me waking up feeling like Morpheus had me dreaming of The Corinthian while I slept.

"When I look at people that I would like to feel have been a mentor or an inspiring kind of archetype of what I'd love to see my career eventually be mentioned as a footnote for in the same paragraph, it would be, like, Bowie." ~Trent Reznor
Is it bad that I kind of want to dream of that?

Nope. Under Maryland law, non-working a/c is not escrowable or whatever that term is, short of a medical dispensation.
I've dealt with this shit before, different management, different staff.
Hell, I spent most of a summer without a/c and I suspect I only got my money (insano electric bills) back because the management was new & was trying to mend fences. And I was a bitch.
I can do this. I just wish I didn't have to. It's unnecessary.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Can you take them to small claims court over breach of contract (assuming they promised you A/C at some point)?

That would be a bigger fucking hassle than just bitching the hell out of them. It'll eventually get done, it just requires me to be increasingly unpleasent and proactive. Like I said, btdt.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Let msbelle do it! It'll be fun for all of us.
