Choosing the Right Building Maintenance Services in Arizona

Introduction

Selecting the right building maintenance services is a critical decision for property owners and managers, especially in a diverse and climate-challenging region like Arizona. Building maintenance encompasses a broad range of services designed to ensure that a property remains functional, safe, and aesthetically pleasing. In Arizona, where extreme temperatures and unique environmental factors can impact buildings, choosing the right maintenance services is essential for preserving property value and ensuring occupant comfort. This guide provides a comprehensive look at the factors to consider when selecting building maintenance services in Arizona, including key considerations, service options, and tips for making an informed decision.

Understanding Building Maintenance Services

Building maintenance services involve routine and preventative tasks designed to keep a property in optimal condition. These services can include everything from basic cleaning and landscaping to more complex repairs and system upkeep. In Arizona, where the climate can be harsh and varied, maintenance needs can be particularly demanding. Services may range from HVAC system maintenance to pest control and exterior repairs. Understanding the full scope of what building maintenance entails is crucial in determining the specific needs of your property and finding a service provider that meets those needs effectively.

Climate Considerations

Arizona's climate presents unique challenges for building maintenance. The state experiences extreme temperatures, with scorching heat in the summer and cooler conditions in the winter. These temperature fluctuations can affect various building components, including roofing, insulation, and HVAC systems. When choosing building maintenance services, it is essential to select a provider with experience in managing the specific challenges posed by Arizona's climate. This includes ensuring that maintenance tasks are performed with materials and techniques suited to withstand high temperatures and seasonal changes.

Experience and Expertise

Experience and expertise are critical factors when selecting building maintenance services. An experienced provider will have a thorough understanding of common issues that arise in Arizona’s buildings and will be well-versed in the best practices for addressing them. Look for companies with a proven track record in maintaining properties similar to yours, whether residential, commercial, or industrial. Checking references and reviewing case studies can provide insights into the provider's ability to handle your specific maintenance needs effectively.

Range of Services Offered

Building maintenance services can vary widely in scope. Some providers offer comprehensive packages that include all aspects of maintenance, while others may specialize in specific areas such as electrical systems, plumbing, or landscaping. When evaluating potential service providers, consider the range of services they offer and whether they align with your property’s needs. For instance, if your property requires frequent HVAC system inspections and repairs, ensure that the provider has the necessary expertise and resources in that area. A full-service maintenance provider can offer the convenience of managing all maintenance tasks under one roof, potentially streamlining communication and coordination.

Quality of Service

The quality of service is a crucial consideration when selecting building maintenance services. High-quality maintenance can significantly impact the longevity and performance of your property. Look for providers who use high-grade materials, employ skilled technicians, and adhere to industry standards. In Arizona, where environmental factors can accelerate wear and tear, investing in quality maintenance services can prevent costly repairs and extend the life of your building components. Request detailed service descriptions and inquire about the provider’s commitment to quality assurance and customer satisfaction.

Cost and Value

Cost is an important factor in choosing building maintenance services, but it should be weighed alongside the value provided. While it may be tempting to choose the lowest bid, it is essential to consider the long-term value and potential hidden costs associated with subpar services. Compare quotes from multiple providers and evaluate what is included in each proposal. Consider factors such as the frequency of service, response time for emergencies, and any additional fees. A provider offering competitive pricing but delivering exceptional service can provide better value than a lower-cost option with limited capabilities.

Response Time and Availability

Building maintenance needs can arise unexpectedly, and prompt response times are crucial for addressing issues before they escalate. Evaluate potential service providers based on their response time and availability for emergency situations. A reliable maintenance provider should offer prompt service and have a clear process for handling urgent repairs. In Arizona, where extreme weather conditions can sometimes lead to urgent maintenance needs, having a provider who can respond quickly can prevent damage and minimize disruptions.

Environmental and Sustainability Practices

Environmental considerations are becoming increasingly important in building maintenance. Many property owners are seeking service providers who prioritize sustainability and environmentally friendly practices. This can include using eco-friendly cleaning products, implementing energy-efficient solutions, and managing waste responsibly. In Arizona, where energy consumption can be high due to air conditioning needs, choosing a provider with a focus on sustainability can help reduce operating costs and support environmental stewardship. Inquire about the provider’s commitment to green practices and their approach to reducing the environmental impact of their services.

Communication and Customer Service

Effective communication and customer service are essential components of a successful building maintenance partnership. A provider should be responsive to your needs, transparent in their communication, and proactive in addressing any concerns. Look for companies that offer clear channels for reporting issues, providing feedback, and receiving updates on service progress. Good customer service can enhance the overall maintenance experience and ensure that your needs are met in a timely and efficient manner.

Reputation and Reviews

The reputation of a building maintenance service provider can offer valuable insights into their reliability and performance. Research potential providers by reading online reviews, checking ratings on review platforms, and asking for recommendations from other property owners or managers. Positive feedback and a strong reputation are often indicators of a provider’s ability to deliver quality service. Conversely, negative reviews or a lack of transparency in addressing complaints can be red flags.

Long-Term Partnerships

Building maintenance is an ongoing commitment, and establishing a long-term partnership with a reliable provider can offer numerous benefits. A provider who becomes familiar with your property and its specific needs can offer more tailored and effective maintenance solutions. Long-term relationships can also lead to more favorable terms and pricing, as well as a deeper understanding of your expectations and requirements. Consider providers who are open to developing a long-term partnership and are willing to work collaboratively to ensure the continued success of your building maintenance program.

Conclusion

Choosing the right building maintenance in Arizona requires careful consideration of various factors, including climate considerations, experience, service range, quality, cost, response time, and environmental practices. A thorough evaluation of potential providers will help ensure that you select a service that meets your specific needs and supports the overall health and functionality of your property. By prioritizing factors such as expertise, quality of service, and effective communication, you can establish a reliable and efficient maintenance program that enhances the longevity and value of your building. Investing in the right building maintenance services is not only a strategic decision for maintaining your property but also a crucial step in ensuring a safe, comfortable, and well-managed environment for all occupants.

The Dark Side of Sports Stadiums

Billionaires have found one more way to funnel our tax dollars into their bank accounts: sports stadiums. And if we don’t play ball, they’ll take our favorite teams away.

Ever notice how there never seems to be enough money to build public infrastructure like mass transit lines and better schools? And yet, when a multi-billion-dollar sports team demands a new stadium, our local governments are happy to oblige.

A good example of this billionaire boondoggle is the host of the 2023 Super Bowl: State Farm Stadium.

That's where the Arizona Cardinals have played since 2006. It was finally built after billionaire team owner Michael Bidwill and his family spent years hinting that they would move the Cards out of Arizona if the team didn't get a new stadium. Their blitz eventually worked, with Arizona taxpayers and the city of Glendale paying over two thirds of the $455 million construction tab.

And State Farm Stadium is not unique. It’s part of a well established playbook.

Here’s how stadiums stick the public with the bill.

Step 1: Billionaire buys a sports team.

Just about every NFL franchise owner has a net worth of over a billion dollars — except for the Green Bay Packers, who are publicly owned by half a million cheeseheads.

The same goes for many franchise owners in other sports. Their fortunes don’t just help them buy teams, but also give them clout — which they cash-in when they want to get a great deal on new digs for their team.

Step 2: Billionaire pressures local government.

Since 1990, franchises in major North American sports leagues have intercepted upwards of $30 billion worth of taxpayer funds from state and local governments to build stadiums.  

And the funding itself is just the beginning of these sweetheart deals.

Sports teams often get big property tax breaks and reimbursements on operating expenses, like utilities and security on game days. Most deals also let the owners keep the revenue from naming rights, luxury box seats, and concessions — like the Atlanta Braves’ $150 hamburger.

Even worse, these deals often put taxpayers on the hook for stadium maintenance and repairs.

We taxpayers are essentially paying for the homes of our favorite sports teams, but we don’t really own those homes, we don’t get to rent them out, and we still have to buy expensive tickets to visit them.

Whenever these billionaire owners try to sell us on a shiny new stadium, they claim it will spur economic growth from which we’ll all benefit.  But numerous studies have shown that this is false.

As a University of Chicago economist aptly put it, "If you want to inject money into the local economy, it would be better to drop it from a helicopter than invest it in a new ballpark."

But what makes sports teams special is they are one of the few realms of collective identity we have left.

Billionaires prey on the love that millions of fans have for their favorite teams.

This brings us to the final step in the playbook: Threaten to move the team.

Obscenely rich owners threaten to — or actually do — rip teams out of their communities if they don’t get the subsidies they demand.

Just look at the Seattle Supersonics. Starbucks’ founder Howard Schultz owned the NBA franchise but failed to secure public funding to build a new stadium. So the coffee magnate sold the team to another wealthy businessman who moved it to Oklahoma.

The most egregious part of how the system currently works is that every dollar we spend building stadiums is a dollar we aren’t using for hospitals or housing or schools.

We are underfunding public necessities in order to funnel money to billionaires for something they could feasibly afford.

So, instead of spending billions on extravagant stadiums, we should be investing taxpayer money in things that improve the lives of everyone — not just the bottom lines of profitable sports teams and their owners.  

Because when it comes to stadium deals, the only winners are billionaires.

Okay 9/9 before I forget

Okay before anyone asks this doesn't tie into my Smudger au where he's from Arizona or a fucked up build from stolen designs.

Idk if Fred is canonically the 9th engine on the Skarloey railway but he is the 9th on my Skarloey railway. This is told by Smudger as in my au Smudger is ex msr 9 being replaced by Jennings in 1932 (we'll get to that later)

Fred was a "lazy" diesel according to others, I never believed it. Every single day the others would belittle him and call him horrible names, no one tried to see if he was actually lazy or not. This all came about when one year Fred refused to pull the weed trains with Rusty as back then he thought a new engine like him should be a shunter and not some engine who pulled weed trains.

As soon as I arrived to the Skarloey railway I had been tasked to help Fred with the maintenance train around the railway, I was warned by others to be careful of Fred as he was a "lazy" diesel. I of course didn't listen to them and when it came time to head off I was surprised by how strong Fred was. I had began to make small talk with him and he at first seemed nervous but then he began to open up.

Part way up the railway near Rheneas station I had began to subconsciously rough ride as I had once did on the Mid Sodor, I had derailed but before I had time to react I was back on the rails. Then it hit me Fred wasn't lazy he was never given a chance to prove himself that he was a capable engine.

The end

Sike

POV change

I had been told that I was to pull a maintenance train with Smudger the new engine, when he had backed up in front of me I was expecting to be belittled like usual but as we had set off Smudger had began to talk to me. At first I remained silent and he could tell I was nervous but then I slowly began to talk to him.

Part way up the railway near Rheneas station I had began to notice Smudger had began to rough ride and he had derailed. I didn't give him enough time to react as I pulled him back onto the rails and continued on

But little did the two engines know that a certain orange diesel had witnessed everything from a distance and she had a small smile on his face.

Housing Disability Discrimination Support

Hi everyone,

I'm reaching out to share my experience with my LL and to seek advice or support as I believe I am experiencing disability discrimination.

Questions:

Am I on the right track? Are they in violation?

What to I do next?

Can I represent myself? Do I need an attorney?

Is it time to file state and federal reports?

Know of an AZ attorney who can help?

Summary:

I've been facing significant issues with my landlord (LL) regarding delayed disability accommodations and incorrect billing. Despite requesting accommodations over three months ago, they has not resolved the issue. Additionally they have made billing errors, including unauthorized charges and fees that are connected to my accommodation request, and they have failed to communicate effectively. Additionally, their legal counsel has used ableist language and derailed conversations about accommodations, seemingly to discourage me from pursuing my rights; I also think they are misrepresenting the law. This situation has caused undue hardship, and I believe their actions may constitute harassment and discrimination under the Fair Housing Act (FHA), Americans with Disability Act, and Arizona Residential Landlord and Tenant Act (ARLTA). At this point I am prepared to take legal action if necessary and am seeking advice or support from others who may have faced similar issues.

Context:

- I and two roommates have lived here for 4 years. In December, my symptoms got worse, and I was diagnosed with chronic conditions. We have been in an ADA unit for 3 of the 4 years.

- I pay for a garage, one roommate pays for a carport, and the other utilizes the free parking option. There is no ADA parking on the shortest route to our ADA dwelling. Free ADA parking spaces are not accessible to me due to having to cross a parking lot and other spaces or walk through a handful of hallways.

- Many tenants complain of a lack of parking and often need to park far from dwellings, park illegally, in another’s paid spot, or leave the complex to park elsewhere.

- All dwellings aside from ADA units have top-loading washers. E-check payments can only have 2 fails before being revoked. During my flare of symptoms and unexpected medical costs, we had two fails. Our first two in 4 years.

- This is a privately owned complex with more than 4 units, built in 2009. AZ has one-party consent recording laws. LL office has a history of not answering the phone.

Timeline:

April:

-Concern (confidential per agreement)

-During this concern I began learning about my rights with regards to my disabilities

-Concern resolved

-Accommodations requested

-documentation submitted (doctors note, state issued Handicap Card)

-Maintenance staff states it would be easy to provide top loading washer, could do it right away

May:

-Attorney pushback need new medical note (dr signature not seen), states ADA doesn’t apply, doesn’t understand nexus

-New Medical Note submitted

-Detailed explanation o f nexus over and above required

-Lawyer states LL Not obligated to pay for modifications

-Approves some modifications at my expense

-Approves reinstatement of my ability to make echeck payments, one additional chance only

-Does not approve transition to top loading washer or elevating washer per doctors note or accessible parking

-LL legal rep implies I should be grateful for the upgrade despite stating why it is not accessible for me

-LL legal rep states ADA has no relevance

-LL states they have other top loading machines available but don’t want to have to deal with/ store our front loading.

-LL legal rejects accessible washer and dryer accommodation and accessible parking does not offer alternative solution

-LL states they will have maintenance build block under washer to raise it despite LL legal rep decline (this has been provided)

-LL legal rep states keep paying for garage or use covered parking space, despite covered spot irrelevance as it is another tenants

June:

-payed June invoice via e-check since ability reinstated (documented)

-Lease on dwelling needs to be renewed at the end of month, in reviewing contract notice garage rent has increased by ~67%

-Called City of Gilbert to review ada parking codes, informed that if in an ADA unit FHA states that there must be an ada parking space on shortest route to dwelling. Recorded call.

-Emailed regarding lease renewal and ongoing parking discussion pushing back on increase and restating my request for accessible parking accommodation

-LL legal rep states there is no such thing as an ADA unit, despite the property management referring to it as it and it being a colloquially accepted term.

-LL rep states they do not see why I need accessible parking when I pay for a garage, and we have a covered spot and nothing LL needs to do. That the city is incorrect.

-Push back on this, reexplain that I would give up my garage if g tr here was a free accessible parking option and once again that the covered spot belongs to another tenant.

- nearing lease deadline, reached out asking if we can sign bur leave the garage terms out until resolved or have an extension without fee

-Followed up again with no response onexpiring lease options, highlighting unresolved disability accommodations initially requested in April (over 3 months without resolution).

- LL acknowledged the need for review and suggested a month-to-month (MTM) option at no extra cost until disputes over increased garage rent and the request for accessible parking are resolved.(Documented)

- Received recurring payment reminder, states billing amounts may change based on account balance, account balance is controlled by LL

- while not required as auto pay established, checked ledger around 10pm on 6/30 and saw an amount of $99.76. (Documented)

July:

- In July 1 discovered LL increased the bill and auto-billed $2,943.81, including fees previously agreed not to charge (MTM fee and disputed garage cost).

- Called LLtwice, no response.

- Visited the leasing office with roommate 1; charges were adjusted but a refund was refused. LL assistant manager (am) asserted that only a credit for the following month could be issued, leaving us without $500 in our budget. LLAM said, “It’s not fair but that’s how it is.” Suggested we stop check if we needed another solution. The conversation was recorded.

- Emailed LL with an update.

- Called the bank and was informed of a $30 fee for stopping the check.

- Called LL and spoke with LLAM she stated LL would not cover the canceled check fee. Reminded LLAM this issue arose due to LL oversight and they should bear the fees. -Discussed an alternative solution of letting the check bounce, which LLAM confirmed would not incur a fee and would allow continued e-check payments per the accommodation terms, without a late fee. This call was witnessed by another resident.

- Emailed LL to summarize the call and communicated that we would not return from our holiday until July 7 and would make the payment once there was confirmation that the check had not gone through.

- LL acknowledged the situation, mentioned a grace period for late fees but incorrectly stated that we chose to make an overpayment.

-July 4 Leasing office closed.

-July 8 Received notice that the check was rejected by SanTan upon our return from holiday, attempted payment but was unable to do so online, called the office but was unable to connect with staff.

-July 9 Attempted payment again and found additional fees despite agreements from LL,LLAM

- Received a threatening eviction notice on the door with no prior communication from the leasing office.

-Emailed LL all the above, proving that we did not choose to make this payment; it resulted from LL error in not updating the system per the agreement to not charge for MTM or the disputed garage fee. The auto payment was triggered by LL incorrect managing of account balance despite stating we would not be charged fees and late payment was due to LLAM not following through with commitments on being able to make e-check payment and no fees.

-July Three calls to the office from various residents of 1086 went unanswered.

- Sent an email to LL seeking resolution.

- Follow-up emails from LL and LLAM stating they will get back to us

- Conversation with LL over the phone, who inaccurately asserted that the overpayment was our mistake and held us responsible for all fees. Clarified that the June 30 and July 1 amounts were both incorrect, and the automated payments were managed by LL. Call recorded.

- Left a voicemail for LL corporate office

- Paid July rent, excluding disputed fees and deducting $10 for the cashier check charge that was only needed to be obtained due to LL Error. LL spoke to other roommates incorrectly stating they didn’t understand why I chose to over pay. Roommate 2 states, auto payment controlled by them, and we had checked which we should not have needed to do -no one is checking their Spotify auto payments - recorded

- Submitted formal complaint for delayed accommodation and billing error highlighting the above information

- LL said was not needed as they had been communicating and that the billing and requests are a separate issue - says accepted partial payment as curtesy

- LL legal rep responds to earlier email, not formal complaint, and again rejects accessible parking accommodation, says not needed despite documentation, to keep paying or use other tenants spot, no other option provided, states rate increase is not discriminatory, says this is the last of the matter.

-LL states we are to sign lease by Aug 1, no reinstatement of epayment, offered to cover $80 of fees and we are responsible for over $250

-LL sends this in three separate emails

- Forwards Formal complaint to senior LL corporate staff, LL legal rep, and LL. States that billing errors and the 3 month delay in accommodation are inherently linked as the LL said no fee to extend while we sort through accommodation, then failed to ensure their billing was correct and put burden on me.

Key Points:

Untimely Resolution of Accommodation Request: Over three months have passed since the initial request for disability accommodations, an excessive and legally questionable delay under the Fair Housing Act.

Potential Delay Tactics: It appears that LL may have deliberately delayed the accommodation process, which coincided with our lease renewal period. This delay tactic is concerning as it suggests an attempt to force us out of the premises, especially given the sudden notice of five days provided after their billing mistake.

Legal Counsel's Conduct: LL legal counsel has repeatedly used ableist language and derailed conversations about accommodations by fixating on irrelevant information and nitpicking colloquial language. This appears to be an intentional strategy to wear out disabled tenants and discourage them from pursuing their rightful accommodations.

Legal Implications: Potential disability discrimination due to unresolved accommodation requests and mishandling of billing.

Definition of Harassment in Housing Context: Harassment in a housing context includes actions that create a hostile living environment, repeated and unreasonable demands, or failure to make necessary accommodations, particularly when these actions are taken against someone because of their membership in a protected class (such as individuals with disabilities).

Legal Case Summary:

LL actions constitute a blatant disregard for Arizona state law and federal housing regulations. Under the Arizona Residential Landlord and Tenant Act (ARLTA), landlords are required to maintain fit and habitable premises and make all repairs necessary to keep the premises in a livable condition (A.R.S. § 33-1324). LL repeated billing errors and failure to address accommodations contravene these obligations. Furthermore, under the Fair Housing Act (FHA), it is illegal to discriminate against individuals with disabilities, including failing to make reasonable accommodations in rules, policies, practices, or services when such accommodations may be necessary to afford a person with a disability an equal opportunity to use and enjoy a dwelling. The excessive delay of over three months in addressing my accommodation request is unreasonable and likely a violation of the FHA. Additionally, the rent increase after the accommodation request, the assertion that paying for accessible parking is the only option, followed by an increase in garage rent (the accessible parking option), and the mishandling of July rent with associated fees and penalties, are all linked and indicative of a pattern of discriminatory and retaliatory behavior by LL. These actions, taken together, create a hostile living environment and impose undue financial and emotional stress potentially constituting harassment. Federal guidelines and best practices indicate that accommodation requests should be acknowledged within 3-5 business days, an interactive process should begin immediately and be completed within 1-2 weeks, and simple modifications should be addressed within a few weeks. The delay of over three months in resolving the request for accessible parking is excessive and fails to meet these standards. Timeline above illustrates LL failure to uphold agreed-upon lease terms and accommodate disability needs regarding accessible parking. Their actions have led to undue financial burden and threats of eviction, potentially violating both the FHA and state law. SanTan's conduct could be construed as harassment and discrimination, subjecting them to significant legal liability.

Action Needed from LL:

Immediate correction of billing errors, waiver of unauthorized fees, reinstatement of e-check payment ability, resolution of the accommodation request, and execution of the lease agreement. LL must address communication shortcomings and ensure compliance with the FHA and the Arizona Residential Landlord and Tenant Act to prevent further legal consequences, including potential lawsuits for discrimination, harassment, and breach of contract.Failure to comply to result in legal action seeking damages, including punitive damages, for the distress and financial losses incurred due to LL unlawful practices. We are prepared to pursue all available remedies under state and federal law to protect rights and ensure fair treatment.

Any advice, support, suggestions on the above much appreciated!

friday - saturday

it is done!!!!!!!!!!!

i will probably do a proper post for it tomorrow, some time, like in the noon (not that it will get any people to listen really)

but here's the linxx!

and then here's the cover art!

#so funny (if you want to see what's going on, you should probably open it up in a separate tab and look at it zoomed in to see all the junk going on)

i'm glad i did the watermarks on the pics at the bottom there, it makes it kind of look uncomfortable, or like seedy i suppose, which helps a lot w/ what the cover is aiming for.

i think basically it's as good as i could have gotten it, the cover. i do like it, i feel like maybe i could do it better, if i planned it out more, maybe it looks like a mess to anyone else, it's kind of one intentionally but i mean, maybe in a bad way it's one too.

also, on bandcamp i wrote a big-ish thing about the album as it was made, here it is:

likely in progress since october of 2022, certainly in progress since november of 2022, finally complete in july 2024. these are songs about nothing especially. this album has seen: two apartments, one move, two jobs, a cockroach infestation, a mass shooting at the neighboring school of our last apartment, my girlfriend surviving the shooting because she was in a different building and he wanted to kill teachers because he did not get a job, the most traveling i've done in my life, myriad illnesses, various canker sores, working out through being sick, not recovering sooner because i had to work out because it would upset me to not complete the ritual as i normally do, the worst sore throat of my life, an ear infection, the starting of a public diary, the maintenance of a public diary, ants on the windowsill, ants in the flour, long standing friendships growing longer, shedding of irritability, regrowth of the irritability, self disgust of varying levels and varying causes, scrubbing the floor naked, bruising my knees at the melt banana show and bruising my knees doing kneeling squats and bruising my knees doing other things, the uneasy orbit of a sleep schedule (an asteroid almost, in capture, then, crashing), several remasterings, 2 computers, an apartment that's a single room, an apartment of multiple rooms cheaply constructed, inflation, grocery store packages changing graphic design, rotten fruit, eaten fruit, my girlfriend's mother loving then hating then loving us, rabbits in grass, rabbits on concrete, bird corpses and living birds and horses in a field for the rodeo and the bulls kept across from them moaning of a captivity under moonlight, the construction and completion of the las vegas sphere (orb of prosperity), numerous nightmares about being murdered, denver colorado, kyoto, tokyo, takeshita-dori street, all the green, a place where sad old gay men convened and sang karaoke remembering their youth in old mecha anime theme songs, a fashion magazine photographer speaking in english to me (stumbling in a beautiful way) "i hope to see you again one day", arizona and the asu campus, a strange fall fair where a woman told me to hold two pumpkins to my chest so it'd be like i had breasts (she seemed supportive), the strange trump-loving foodtruck that served elote that my gf liked, my most recent live performance with thomas since 2018, my girlfriend learning korean, completion of multiple books, falling in love with foucault as i did when i first read him in college, meeting people for the first time, meeting some for the second, sleeping on a bed in chicago, loving chicago, people staring at me in public, children staring at me, wondering if children hate me because at my root there is something wrong with me and everyone except me can tell, being published in various online journals, the coming first publication of my work in print, in a journal people hold in their hands of flesh, nothing special, everything special, stretches of relative silence, all the meaningless stuff, all the stuff i don't want to tell you because i like it too much. i already gave you too much, most likely. you will not have a sense of any of this as you listen to the record. i put it here, i don't know why. this album is 32 songs, 47-ish minutes long. you can click a button on a web site to listen to it, and you will hear it.

georges bataille - wrote the sentence which i lifted for the album title (letter to kojeve where he begins talking about unemployed negativity) thomas hardy - wrote tess of the d'urbervilles which i quote on the final song. neighbors - let me scream and didn't ever complain or call the police. hospital terrorizer - i screamed and i wrote the songs and i made the cover and stuff.

but since i am on my blog i guess i can get into more detail about the record, and i also feel like anyone who reads this / has been reading this, you have actually seen what it's been like, the hostility of the little bit of writing i did for the album isn't really pointed back here, it's not necessarily a pose it's just like, i dunno, as a thing to make, there's so much time and effort, and most of that's invisible, that's not being said in a self pitying way, it's more about how that's the case for so much music, which makes it interesting, i think.

anyway, there's one song here called 'i didn't think before i started a diary' which isn't really about this diary, i wrote that song prior to even starting this, it's about something weird you can see w/ people who do have diaries on the internet, where some people like, years after they're done being updated, things like that, or even just posts / miniature diaristic stuff, of archiving all that, when really this is more about the practice/act than an archive to reach into history with. it was also inspired by a piece of poetry by a friend though i don't know if i could even find it. it's written from the perspective of someone wanting to archive a person, and i kept thinking about that from the other side. that's really the only song i have so much to say on i think, because the others are either a little more personal or a little more obvious, there's lots of political things, the song hell baby works off of a reference to hideshi hino's hell baby, the manga where a deformed baby is thrown into a dump and she is revived by flaming ghosts and wanders back to her family and then is shunned once again. it's really tragic.

anyway i know i said i'd have more pictures from yesterday to post but i've been busy all day with trying to get everything like ready enough, some songs feel a little odd still but that just seems like how they are, it's only 2 that feel a little odd and idk, if i really hate them eventually i will just remaster them and release them together or something but they sound good to me, i think i'm caught off guard by them because there's a newness about them, because i worked on one up to the last bit here, and another was the product of an error related to a crash where the .wav came out normal but the mp3 came out strange sounding i think, so i had to go back and re export. either way both sound good/cool just unexpected to me, and i am someone who had expectations that were precise about those songs, specific things about what frequencies were blasting when and how stuff sat, and then that's just new now.

tomorrow i have to make like... 3 posts inside the internet world, to make people maybe look at my album, and then it will be entirely/totally out of my hands, it will truly be over then, that's like the advertising period i get, lol, one day.

anyway i am super super tired right now, so i will sleep,

RANGER, Chapter 9

Beginning | Previous | Next

He called himself Aphid. At this point, it was the only name and identity that mattered to him. In another life - but the same body, there had been another name. Something comically royal.

I could tell you all about his tragic backstory, but Aphid wouldn’t like that. You see, Aphid is special. Having spent far too long within the park, he is starting to piece together the narrative of this whole adventure - but only as long as he doesn’t look too hard. To him, this grand story is visible only out of the corner of his eye. It’s best we don’t push him by pulling painful memories out of his mind. Not yet.

The insect-named man had been in the park for nearly 10 years. He had been part of an illegal infiltration of the park by the Algerian military, and his force had been reckless and doomed from the beginning. All of them were now either dead or scattered - with no desire to reconnect via seance or visitation.

From his original infiltration in New Orleans, Louisiana, he had drifted gradually and unintentionally westward. In his wake he left his broken equipment and apparel, and with it, the memories of his old life. 

His plate carrier had been shredded by what could only be described as a mutant beaver. He left it on the hood of a dilapidated sedan alongside what he recalled to be the face of his first love. It was replaced by a strangely immaculate police armor vest, and the taste of bile-like blood.

His AKM-47 assault rifle had been worn down by a combination of the entropic field of the park, and the poor quality ammunition he had been issued. Eventually, it would barely fire two cartridges before the feeding mechanism would get stuck, and no amount of cleaning or maintenance seemed to resolve the problem. 

He left the formerly trusty rifle on a shelf in a completely empty grocery store, alongside the day (but not year) of his birth. It was replaced by a bolt action hunting rifle he looted from a dead survivalist, and the pleading whines of a guilty man.

His boots had stayed with him the longest, though he couldn’t tell you how long. They had, for one reason or another, never changed after entering the park. Even after hundreds of miles of marching, their tread was as deep as ever. They had simply vanished one night, in his sleep. Nothing else had been taken, and no sign of an intruder was left behind. With those trusty boots gone, he left his name - written in the desert sands of Arizona. His boots were replaced by a pair from a shopping mall warehouse, and his name from then on had been Aphid. 

He was no longer a soldier, but a Ranger - the widely accepted name for anyone who roams the park for profit or meaning. 

Eventually, he reached the Pacific Ocean off of the coast of Southern California. The entire odyssey had taken a little over 6 years (inside). He had taken his time getting here, having picked up many odd jobs and met a wide variety of people both good and bad. He had spent almost 6 months in San Antonio - working protection for a group of scientists studying some sort of “energy spaghetti” on top of a dangerously deteriorated office building. 

They were good, smart folk. Aphid had liked them, and they had liked him. He cried when they weren’t around anymore - but he moved on.

He spent four years on the coast of California - living a migratory lifestyle - going wherever the fog wasn’t. Today, the fog was heavy, and he knew he had to get moving soon.

But first, he had to find some material to patch his travel tent, and needed to locate an offering of some sort so the fog would let him leave. So, with his objectives in mind he headed eastwards towards the Point Doom Commerce Plaza.

Navigating Roofing Solutions with a Reputable Phoenix Contractor

In the sprawling metropolis of Phoenix, where the sun scorches the desert landscape and monsoon rains occasionally drench the city, the integrity of a building's roof is paramount. For homeowners and business owners alike, finding a reliable roofing contractor in Phoenix is crucial for maintaining a sound structure above their heads. This article will explore what to look for in a roofing professional and how they can assist you with residential roofing, commercial roofing, and navigating insurance claims.

The Importance of Professional Residential Roofing Services

Residential roofing in Phoenix presents unique challenges due to the extreme weather conditions experienced throughout the year. A seasoned roofing contractor understands these local nuances and provides tailored solutions for homeowners. Whether repairing damage caused by intense UV exposure or replacing worn materials after a storm, a knowledgeable contractor ensures that your home's roof is aesthetically pleasing and structurally sound. They should offer comprehensive services covering inspections, repairs, replacement, and maintenance to accommodate all residential roofing needs.

Commercial Roofing Expertise in Phoenix

The demands placed on commercial roofs are significantly different from those on residential structures. They often encompass larger areas and require materials equipped to handle heavy-duty usage. A trusted roofing contractor proficient in commercial roofing is essential for businesses looking to protect their investments while ensuring the safety of employees and customers. These professionals provide robust solutions that stand up to Phoenix’s harsh climate while also considering energy efficiency and longevity. Skillful contractors deliver an array of services designed to minimize disruptions to business operations during repair or installation processes.

Handling Insurance Claims with Ease

One aspect that sets apart certain roofing contractors from their peers is their adeptness at handling insurance claims related to roof damage. In Phoenix, where weather-related damage can be common, having a contractor who can guide you through the complex process of filing an insurance claim is invaluable. Such contractors work closely with insurance companies to assess damages accurately, ensuring clients receive fair compensation for necessary repairs or replacements. Their experience simplifies what can otherwise be an overwhelming ordeal for property owners facing unexpected roof issues.

When searching for a roofing contractor in Phoenix, it’s important not only to consider the quality of service but also their proficiency in managing projects from start to finish — including assistance with insurance matters when needed.

Selecting Your Phoenix Roofing Contractor 

Choosing the right professional for your project involves more than just scanning through ads; it requires diligent research and consideration. Look for contractors who have established credibility within the community through solid references or testimonials from satisfied clients. Evaluate their communication skills – transparency regarding timelines, costs, and project details is critical. Lastly, they must be licensed appropriately according to local regulations.

In conclusion, whether you require assistance with residential or commercial roofing needs or need help navigating through insurance claims after severe weather has impacted your property, partnering with an accomplished roofing contractor in Phoenix can make all the difference in safeguarding one of your most significant investments — your property's roof. Remember that quality workmanship coupled with comprehensive service offerings will ultimately yield long-lasting results under Arizona’s blue skies.

Building Maintenance in Arizona: Essential Tips for Property Owners

Introduction:

Proper building maintenance is crucial for property owners in Arizona to ensure the longevity, functionality, and safety of their properties. The unique climate and environmental factors in Arizona present specific challenges that property owners need to address. This article provides essential tips for building maintenance in Arizona, offering guidance to property owners on how to effectively maintain their buildings in this region.

Regular Roof Inspections and Maintenance:

The intense Arizona sun and occasional monsoon storms can be particularly hard on roofs. Regular roof inspections and maintenance are vital to identify and address any damage or wear and tear promptly. Inspect for loose or damaged shingles, leaks, and signs of deterioration. Clear debris from gutters and downspouts to prevent clogging and water damage. Consider applying roof coatings or reflective materials to enhance energy efficiency and protect the roof from UV radiation.

Maintain HVAC Systems:

With scorching summer temperatures, reliable HVAC systems are essential for indoor comfort. Schedule regular maintenance for your heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems. Clean or replace filters regularly to ensure proper airflow and efficiency. Inspect ductwork for leaks and seal any gaps to avoid energy waste. Consider installing programmable thermostats to optimize energy usage and reduce costs. Proper maintenance of HVAC systems ensures optimal performance and extends their lifespan.

Address Pest Control: Arizona's warm climate makes it an ideal habitat for a wide range of pests, including termites, scorpions, ants, and rodents. Implement an effective pest control program to prevent infestations and minimize property damage. Regularly inspect the building's exterior for cracks, gaps, or openings that pests can enter through. Seal any potential entry points to keep pests at bay. Consider partnering with professional pest control services to develop a comprehensive pest management plan tailored to your property's needs.

Protect Against Dust and Sand:

Arizona's arid environment means dust and sand can be a significant challenge for property owners. Regularly clean and maintain exterior surfaces, including windows, walls, and walkways, to remove dust and sand buildup. Consider installing weather stripping and seals around windows and doors to minimize dust penetration. Properly seal gaps and cracks in the building's exterior to prevent sand infiltration. Regular power washing and sweeping can help keep outdoor areas clean and free from debris.

Maintain Irrigation Systems:

Maintaining a well-functioning irrigation system is crucial for landscaping and water conservation in Arizona. Regularly inspect and maintain sprinklers, valves, and irrigation lines to ensure they are properly functioning. Adjust irrigation schedules according to seasonal demands to avoid overwatering or under-watering. Repair any leaks or damaged components promptly to prevent water wastage and potential landscape damage. Efficient irrigation practices contribute to the sustainability and aesthetics of your property.

Protect Against Sun Damage:

Arizona's intense sunlight can cause fading and deterioration of building materials, including paint, flooring, and furniture. Take steps to protect your property against sun damage. Install window films or shades to reduce UV radiation and heat transfer. Consider using UV-resistant paint or coatings on exterior surfaces. Use window coverings, such as blinds or curtains, to limit direct sunlight exposure. Regularly inspect and maintain exterior finishes to address any signs of sun damage promptly.

Regular Plumbing Inspections:

Arizona's hard water can lead to mineral buildup and plumbing issues. Schedule regular plumbing inspections to detect leaks, clogs, or corrosion. Insulate pipes to prevent freezing during colder months. Consider installing water softening systems or using water conditioners to minimize mineral deposits and extend the lifespan of plumbing fixtures. Promptly address any plumbing issues to prevent water damage and ensure efficient water usage.

Implement Energy Efficiency Measures:

Given the extreme temperatures in Arizona, implementing energy efficiency measures can significantly reduce utility costs. Install energy-efficient lighting, such as LED bulbs, throughout the property. Consider upgrading to energy-efficient appliances and equipment. Improve insulation to minimize heat transfer and enhance energy efficiency. Install solar panels to harness renewable energy and reduce reliance on traditional power sources. Implementing energy efficiency measures not only saves money but also contributes to sustainability efforts.

Conclusion:

Effective building maintenance in Arizona is essential for property owners to ensure the longevity, functionality, and value of their properties. By following the tips outlined in this article, including regular roof inspections, HVAC maintenance, pest control measures, protection against dust and sun damage, proper irrigation practices, plumbing inspections, and energy efficiency measures, property owners can effectively maintain their buildings in the unique Arizona climate. Taking proactive steps to address maintenance needs will result in well-maintained properties that provide comfort, safety, and long-term value.

Tile Roofing Installation: Durable and Stylish Roofing Solution for Your Home

When it comes to enhancing your home’s durability and curb appeal, tile roofing installation stands out as a popular choice. Known for its longevity, aesthetic appeal, and resilience against the elements, tile roofing is a fantastic investment for homeowners. In this article, we'll explore the benefits of tile roofing, the installation process, and why choosing professionals like StormPro Roofing can make a significant difference in achieving a high-quality, lasting result.

Benefits of Tile Roofing

1. Longevity and Durability Tile roofs can last over 50 years with minimal maintenance, making them one of the most durable roofing options. Unlike other materials, tile is resistant to rot, insect damage, and extreme weather conditions, including hail and high winds.

2. Energy Efficiency Tile roofing offers excellent thermal performance. It naturally ventilates, allowing air to flow beneath the tiles and reducing the amount of heat transferred into the home. This quality helps keep homes cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter, which can contribute to lower energy bills.

3. Fire and Weather Resistance Tile roofing is both fire-resistant and resilient against harsh weather conditions. This feature makes it an ideal choice for homes in regions prone to high heat, hail, or heavy rainfall.

4. Aesthetic Versatility Available in a variety of colors, shapes, and finishes, tile roofing provides numerous design options that enhance a home’s visual appeal. From traditional terracotta to modern slate-like designs, there’s a tile roofing style for every taste.

The Tile Roofing Installation Process

A professional tile roofing installation involves several steps to ensure durability and quality:

Initial Inspection and Preparation Before installation, a thorough inspection of the roof structure is conducted. This step ensures the roof can support the weight of the tiles and helps identify any repairs needed for a stable base.

Underlayment Installation A high-quality underlayment is essential for waterproofing. It provides an added layer of protection between the tiles and the roof deck, preventing water damage.

Tile Placement Tiles are laid according to a specific pattern that allows for optimal water drainage. Proper spacing and secure fastening of each tile ensure they remain intact even under challenging weather conditions.

Final Inspection After installation, a final inspection ensures the tiles are secure and meet quality standards. This inspection helps verify that the roof is installed to withstand the elements for many years to come.
