    Do NOT be kind to your landlord.

    My landlord lost their house gambling so I offered them to rent one of my rooms at discount as a roommate.

    Now whenever my rent increases due to cost of living, I increase their rent due to cost of living.

    We are in a sick perpetual cycle and both our rents went up 5000% yesterday. We are comrades in this pain and promised to protect each other if liver selling operation goes wrong.

    It’s a hateful bond, an adversarial friendship, and a dying survival. Somebody please help!

      Now that I think about it, if a circle exists somewhere where A rents to B, B rents to C, and C to A (make it as long as needed, of course), one increasing the rent leads to a perpetual rent increase until one of them collapses? Would be funny to see tbh.
