"I can't talk to you; I don't know your middle name."

Sanctioned removal of monuments is one thing. Angry people throwing chains over them and pulling down with trucks is another.

There's a long history of people pulling down authoritarian monuments.

Not in the US. Yet.

"Plans."

That's because he doesn't understand that they're the same thing.

Very recently, some people started receiving images that allegedly show a grisly murder. (I have not seen such an image myself. I can't speak to whether the image(s) are "real.") Bad enough that the main Nicole comm got locked down, and people are wondering whether law enforcement should be involved.

It would probably be something that fediverse instance admins ought to put in place, considering the dark turn that the Nicole thing has taken. Dual purpose: prevent spam/scam/bot accounts, offset hosting and administration costs for a platform that should remain otherwise unmonetizable.

I'd pay it.

SA charges $10, and their forums are notoriously "human." A barrier to entry that is small enough for a single real human to leap, but very costly for a bot army to avoid, is not a bad thing on its face.

This dosn't mean that I think this Digg reboot is good, just that the $5 part isn't bad.

He kind of did. He shared resting feet in a wading pool with a black man when public pools (read: all pools) in the US were segregated. I wasn't old enough to recall that happening in the moment, but I guarantee he got a rash of hate mail over it.

Because I was high when I was watching it.

You weren't high when you were watching it, were you?

Personal experience: some apartment we’d been renting gave us back our whole security deposit, which we weren’t expecting, because cat. But yay!

Couple months pass, they get hold of us and are all “Wait a second, you owe us $1200, because we have to replace the carpet.”

I imagine we could have just told them to pound sand at that point, but we’d started thinking about getting a mortgage preapproval, and didn’t want this to be a problem. So we agreed to pay them $50/month.

We paid them like five times over the course of ten months. They’d send us angry letters, and we’d finally send them a check.

The moment we got a mortgage approved, we stopped paying them. They sent a couple more angry letters, which we ignored. Never heard a thing about it again. Nothing happened with credit reports. No civil suit.

As above, if it’s “two months notice,” and OP was shy on that by three days, the most they could possibly owe is three days’ rent.

Nothing will happen if OP does not pay them. Can something happen? Sure, something very very small. But it won’t. And there’s zero harm in finding out. Worst case, old landlord sells the debt to collections for Pennie’s on the dollar, OP clears it with collections for nickels on the dollar, still coming out way ahead.

There's a disagreement about what's owed. That's what civil courts are for. If they want to go that route, then talk to a lawyer, or if the amount is less than a lawyer would cost, then pay it.

I wonder how many health insurance companies' faces are going to be eaten by leopards.

By this logic, OP should only be on the hook for three days' worth of June.

Protip: Don't pay it. It will cost them more to come after you for it than the amount owed is, so they won't come after you for it.

It's already started.
