I jumped on that train years ago. AirBnB contributes to gentrification and rising home prices. Just stay in hotels, people.
donald_brady@bruce @causeburn Same. Never used it much but stayed in one in Lisbon. Asked the person dropping the keys of if the place was hers and she said no, owner had 50! It's completely distorted the housing market and should be regulated out of existence by progressive cities.

A while ago, my mom had a neighbor who had really loud parties late into the night on the weekends. We talked it out with them and they became much more conscientious about it.
Several years ago, a house that shares a corner with my mom's backyard got turned into an Airbnb and has routinely been booked by assholes who like to be loud as fuck throughout the night. How do you talk to anyone about that? The owner doesn't live there and the "tenants" are only there for a few days at most.
A few years ago, a house a couple doors down from me also got turned into an Airbnb. Now, more than ever, I've been making connections with my neighbors and we've been getting each others' backs - it's especially important in a neighborhood like ours. How do you do that with a rotating cast of characters?
tbodt@causeburn @CarlMuckenhoupt bruh this image is ai generated
@tbodt @CarlMuckenhoupt The words are what matters not the setting. I'm also not sure it's AI generated but even if it was it doesn't matter.
@causeburn @CarlMuckenhoupt look at the people in the crowd and the label under the billboard and like the entirely implausible position of the billboard and the body horror on the hood of one of the cars... i agree the message is more important but wrapping it this way really puts me off

The stickers on the Motov bottles are not properly removed thus supporting big alcohol via advertising!
Also, can we please use the hand vowen ignition wicks from the community owned coops?
Do not use corporate sweatshops igniter cloth in your molotovs.
What kind of message is that?
@tbodt @causeburn @CarlMuckenhoupt
It's an effort to illustrate how pontification about the execution of the message is not helping the actioning of the message.
Or to put it another way.
The medium is not the message.
@n_dimension @causeburn @CarlMuckenhoupt thank you for explaining. to explain myself it put me off because disinformation is commonly spread using ai generated images so when i see one i am immediately suspicious
@tbodt @causeburn @CarlMuckenhoupt
Fair call.
I did not think of it that way.
It was very astute of you to pick up on that!
@n_dimension @causeburn @CarlMuckenhoupt on second look this was unintentionally very meta (“the medium is not the message!" "sorry i couldn't understand it in that medium could you try another”)
Mirishuli@n_dimension @tbodt @causeburn @CarlMuckenhoupt I thought everyone used tampons in their Molotov cocktails??
SuperBezirksvertreterin@causeburn Serious question: What’s the next best global alternative?
thorsten@tbachner @causeburn Thanks, bookmarked. I had heard about them in the past but forgot about them.
@bnthepm Youre asking what the alternative to airbnb is?
