[Rules] Street Peddler with 3 events
Can you use the trash ability on Street Peddler to just trash it and the cards hosted on it if you can't install any of them?

No, you may not. The idea is that if you can't resolve the effect, you can't trigger the ability.
This is the thread from a couple days ago where people explain the rulings on this, it will explain it pretty well

Here's the ruling itself

@MasterAir @ANR_RulesWiki No, you're not able to install a card so you cannot trigger it.

Cool, thank you. I thought it was something like that, but I couldn't remember exactly.
That poor street rat is only good for aesopes... help her get a real job!
So you obviously can't install from it, but does it still sit there hosting events? I mean at least then the corp player still has to worry about what you could have.
No, because trash is a cost of installing one of the cards. If they cannot be installed, you can't pay for it with trashing.
