Kick them out dude!

Also if you're going to do something illegal make sure nobody else but you knows about it. Hence why you should have kicked them out before starting the grow op.

Hey Mayne. It's great to see you again! Your living situation sounds pretty bad. You should move into the Squirrel's new shed. It's summer in Canada now, right?

You guys ever get to the point where you want to kill yourself? I always laughed about people with depression, but i think i'm starting to understand it now.

If you're serious do seek medical/mental help. I recently got a depression, it's not a fun place to be... I'm on meds now. Hopefully I'll be able to ween off them. Going to try getting off mid summer. I think I got seasonal affective disorder as apparently it runs in the family. First time I get it.

Bottom line, need more blue/white spectrum light, and UVB. Since you're in the south this should not be an issue if you spend time outside, for me I need to generate it artificially for most of the year. Vitamin D tablets help too. I was only taking like 1000 IUs, probably need more like 5,000+ unless I experiment with UVB bulbs. (not UVA, which is what tanning beds produce)

From what you’ve told us...the cause of almost all your problems should be easy to fix...kick them out...or you move out. Whichever way works...gtf away from them and the drama.

Actually here's an idea, secretly find yourself a new apartment. Move out, and stop paying for that one, be nice about it to the landlord and give notice etc, but basically they won't have a choice but to move. Since they are not registered residents (at least I hope not) they will basically be trespassing at that point so landlord will have every right to get rid of them including use of police force. Give an extra payment to the landlord or something for his troubles.

he could upgrade RS's A/C system for his server farm as partial payment... (which in the great frozen north means opening a window...amirite?)
I'm legit considering using the server room heat to heat my garage once I insulate it. I don't think it will be enough to actually heat it, but maybe keep it above zero. Then I'd be able to work in it decently comfortably if I put on a hoodie. My goal is to convert it into a workshop. It's too small to work on cars or anything big, but mostly wood working projects and stuff.
