Okay bad news...?
Added 2026-01-08 19:45:50 +0000 UTC.So my landlord changed some stuff around and now I have yet another $200 a month added to my rent for utilities and stuff i didnt have to pay before. So while that isnt a ton, for reference I pay all my bills (a total of around 1400) for my 20ft by 20ft bedroom and a kitchen. I have the equivalent of a single bedroom apartment and thats far from what I am complaining about. I am a simple bun, I can work with small spaces.
However, their excuse was some recent change in land code thanks to rich boomers making housing developments and a fucking mall within a mile of my home, sooooo since rent is going up, again, my fees dont cut it, again.
But before I do anything, i wanted YOUR opinion here.
What should I do? Ill have to find a way to make more doing this stuff, but I already feel bad enoigh as is increasing my prices to what they are.
Should I increase? Should I rework my coms? Do more event raffle things? E-beg? Idk what to do and im stressing like hell over it right now I can only pump out coms so fast x.x

Speak with your neighbors and get a tenants' union going, collectively refuse the adjusted rent and petition local governance for an injunction.
