If you want more reasons to hate landlords head over to the r/landlords subreddit. The people there are some of the nastiest, heartless people you will ever see.

Common sense, maturity, humility, and curiosity are all extremely important to me in a partner. Whether my potential partner is book smart is significantly less important to me than whether they treat others with respect and wanting to improve themselves.

With the superficial stuff out of the way, the bottom line is that the thing that matters most is whether or not I want to spend my limited time with them.

So they either did not do proper finance analysis or they are hiding numbers from shareholders, neither of which inspire confidence.

When it's worded this way I can almost accept the decision made by the SCOTUS. Almost.

Why bother being committed if the DNC isn't going to support you?

(Despite what I just said these candidates should be committed and the DNC and GOP need to start acting in the best interest of their constituents and stop propping up unqualified candidates.)

I'm no philosopher so take this with a grain of salt. The following comes from the perspective of someone living in a predominantly Asian area in the southern United States.

Xenophobia generally refers to a fear or dislike of everyone who isn't of your culture regardless of who they are. Racism is prejudice against people of a specific race. East Asian cultures are vocally xenophobic, citing differences in morals and traditions. They don't hate foreigners because of their race or the color of their skin. They hate when people come into their country and behave in a way that goes against the grain. Dealing with those types of people would cause them to go against the grain as well and it makes them uncomfortable.

Xenophobia generally deals with culture while racism deals with race. Both are nasty and things we can do without, but racism is significantly worse.

Well, yes. The heroes are generally the average people who don't do stuff for attention. The "pretty" ones who dress themselves up and try to get media attention are generally the villains.

My problem is the same community on different instances. I block it once place but it pops up again on my feed in another instance.

This isn't necessarily a bad thing. It is pretty important that the captain is aware of their ship.

There lies the contradiction. How can there be more studies when everyone is fighting against it? You just said two totally opposing things.
