An 87-year-old woman from Lemiers in Limburg who owned substantial real estate in nearby Vaals has left most of it to her tenants in her will.
According to the Telegraaf, Anneliese Houppermans, who earned her money from a successful fruit and vegetable business, owned several houses in the community. She never married or had children, and her ties to her family had faded over the years.
ALAB except this lady.
Apologies, but this is the first time I’ve seen the term ALAB and I couldn’t find it anywhere on the interwebs.
Could you explain what this means?
I’m sure you are familiar with ACAB. The L stands for “landlords” here
Sorry, my mind just didn’t click at that moment
basically, Lemmy doesn’t think people should be allowed to rent. You either own a house or live in a hotel. No inbetween.
I think it’s more like “people shouldn’t be allowed to charge others exorbitant prices for a basic necessity of life”
that would be the correct, nuanced approach, yes. But that isn’t how things are on Lemmy.
Yeah I keep fluctuating between leaving lemmy and coming back due to its love for extreme stances, its the same type of vibe/reason I never really touched Twitter or Tumblr, but unfortunately reddit is now… reddit
Linux, vegans, anti-renting, autists (literally, not a slur); it’s a good mix of the worst of Reddit, without the racism & nazis of Reddit. The biggest longterm difference is that almost no-one on Lemmy has any skills or experience. Flying Squid is 47 and only discovered that coupons existed on the internet last month. There aren’t knowledge experts on topics like Reddit has.
Honestly, Reddit has been looking better and better. Overall, conversations are more wholesome than on Lemmy. Which is weird as fuck.
I mean, don’t get me wrong: r/conservative and plenty of places are cesspools of filth, but you can get banned from reasonable subs by posting or joining garbage subs. It’s done a lot to make things less shit.
CEO is still garbage, mods are mixed, etc.
I mean she still stole people’s income for like. However many years. This deed of hers was good, but I’m not sure it makes up for (potentially) a lifetime of taking working class wages.
Still struggling with English, I see?
Oh, hey it’s you. Huh. Always run into the same people defending Landlords. No point hashing it out since we already have. Hope you’re having a good day.
