Landlord's Response

When I asked my landlord to replace the blinds because they were broken 、 he replaced them with even more broken and very dirty blinds, and when I complained, he said he was not going to buy new ones 、 and would not do it himself. I did not intentionally break them myself, they have been there since the previous occupant's time and if you use them for a long time, they will naturally get damaged and break.
In this case 、 Should I pay for the new blinds myself ?
I feel like the landlord thinks I don't know anything and is taking advantage of me. I've been asked many times before when I'm moving ?
and I feel bad that they put these broken blinds on purpose.

Other times, when I asked them to replace a light bulb in the kitchen that went out, 、 the glass covering the bulb was broken, and when I told them that the bulb was fine and would not be replaced and that it was dangerous and should be handled properly,
they would not let the glass fall 、 and they do nothing. Obviously it is dangerous if it has a sharp tip and falls. Is there somewhere I can 、 talk to if I get this kind of response ??

I need to print documents to be submitted to the Japanese government office on A3 paper. Please let me know if there are any stores in the Los Angeles and Orange County area that offer such a service. I have A3 paper on hand.

I am having trouble with a tree in the apartment next door that is over my fence.

I live in an apartment building. The tree in the apartment building right next to my parking spot has grown to about the height of the third floor of the building and is covering my car. Leaves are piling up every day and bird droppings are getting on it and it gets dirty quickly even if I clean it. The paint is also damaged. I told the manager of our apartment building but he said there is nothing he can do about the neighbors. I told them that they should at least be able to trim the amount that is encroaching on ours, but they are not doing anything. Where do I go for help in this situation, DCBA, LAHD, etc.? Has anyone had a similar experience and solved the problem?

Green Card Lottery Winners ! !

I was lucky enough to win the green card lottery on my second application last year, but I am still waiting for the interview notice after completing the biometrics ( fingerprinting ) on April 4 this year. I asked a friend of mine who won the lottery and he told me that he received the interview notice and the biometrics notice at about the same time, but I have not received the interview notice after almost a month … (;_;)
If anyone who has won the lottery can tell me when they received the interview notice, I would appreciate it! ! Also, if the interview schedule has been set, is it possible to confirm it online or something …?

What advice do you have for him as he stands on the brink of no longer being able to continue playing baseball in the future? He won the Koshien championship in spring and summer in consecutive years, and was drafted first overall by the Hanshin team with a bang. Fujinami had won double-digit victories in three consecutive years since his rookie year and seemed to be on the way to becoming an ace, but suddenly he began to have trouble with his control of the ball. Fujinami's mentality was thought to be the main cause, and he decided to make a fresh start and challenge MLB this year.
In his first game in MLB, he had a great start, but after that, he was even more out of control than in NPB. To date, he has pitched in four games and has a horrendous 14.40 earned-run average.

They won't come to repair my apartment,..,

About a few months ago, the outside gate door was broken down by a homeless person wandering around outside my apartment.

I notified the management company about it, and once after that, a contractor-like person showed up, got an estimate, and went away, but I have not heard from him since.

I contacted the management company and they said they are currently contacting the owner and waiting to hear from him, but it has been about a month.

So far, when I have asked them to repair my room several times, they have come rather quickly, but

apparently the owner changed a few months ago, and I have the impression that the response has changed drastically since then.

Is this kind of problem something that can be solved by talking to the city?

I am a second year junior high school student and I am thinking of studying abroad in Los Angeles, USA.
I heard that public schools do not offer f1 visas for 2nd year students, but private schools do, so I was wondering if it is possible to attend a private school for the first year and then attend a public school from the second year. I would appreciate it if you could tell me.

I will be staying in Torrance, LA for about a month. I would like to go sightseeing on weekends and when I have free time, I would like to use public transportation when it is light and Uber or Lyft when it gets dark.
I would like to know if there are any subway or bus lines that I should not take even during the daytime.

I've posted a few times in the "Find a Friend" section, and I always get emails that have nothing to do with the content of the post, but rather with the idea of having a casual relationship with someone. I have received quite a few of them.

I can't help but wonder how they can send me such emails when they don't even know what kind of person I am, let alone my photo. Is it because I am a woman, or is it because I am a lucky guesser?

I'm a little bit stunned that I made this topic.
