People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.
RULES:
- Mark NSFW content.
- No doxxing people.
- Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
- No international politcs
- Be excellent to each other.
- Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. You can replace the addres of .x.com to xcancel.com in the address. https://web.archive.org/save is an option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.
- If a tweet (or similar) makes a statement of fact, either mark it as "satire" in the body or provide the original source link backing up the statement (see rule 6)

MODERATORS
Essentially, there's usually good reason it was abandoned.
Additionally, houses in Japan aren't really built to last. Properties like these are usually bulldozed and rebuit when purchased.
I knew it...
Ghosts
Basically.
Grandma died and nobody wants to live in a 50 year old house in the middle of nowhere.
For $3400, I'm fine with living with tormented ghosts.
Building standards are improving but, yeah, slowly. Kominka over 100 years can have really good structure if well maintained, but it definitely would not be something who isn't already knowledgeable about them. The majority fall into ruin.
