Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Would it be considered trespassing when my psycho landlord closes my bedroom window from the outside?English
131·15 days agoProbably not criminal trespassing, since they are the owner of the property. It may fall under tenant harassment, unauthorized entry, constructive eviction, or other laws that pertain specifically to landlord/tenant relations.
Check to see if there are any local tenant’s rights or advocacy groups in your area that offer free legal consultations. They’d be able to advise you on the local tenant’s rights laws and whether they apply to your situation.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•If men gave birth, abortion clinics would be on every cornerEnglish
10·2 months agoPolling suggests that around 70% of women and 50% of men support abortion, though. If those stats simply reversed then nothing really changes.

I started using a white noise machine and fans on high when I lived down the block from a hospital emergency room. It sounded like a jet engine in my bedroom, but my brain learned to interpret the white noise as profound silence. I moved away from the hospital zone but still use the white noise to sleep.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why do we dance and hop when we desperately need to go number 1?English
25·3 months agoYour nervous system has finite bandwidth. The extra movement and sensation signals drown out the “need to pee” signal, making it seem less urgent. It’s also why we rub the area around minor injuries to relieve pain.







This looks uncomfortable and humiliating. Now if they were to make it in the form of a suppository…
