Your landlords are profiling your pet. If your dog looks like a pittie, doberman, shepard, or other "danger" breed even if you know they aren't it's a way they can tell you no.
It's also a way they can deny you (who might be a protected class) because you wouldn't give up your dog just to live there. So if they can see something in your dog they can deny they can use it against you.
Landlords are not uwu friends.
For Ontario peeps: any "no pets" clause on your (potential) rental agreement is invalid and unenforceable. Don't provide any pet pics, ignore any pet questions, and move in. They can't kick you out for having a pet
Also they won’t just profile “scary looking” animals. I’ve had a landlord try to blame every single weird funky smell in the building on us because we had a rabbit.
You know, an animal that goes in a litter box with zealous diligence, is biologically designed to have almost zero body odour so predators don’t find it, and whose poop is basically compacted hay.
That little guy was blamed for *checks notes* essence of marijuana from two floors below, perfume of neighbour-forgot-to-take-out-the-trash-before-going-on-vacay, and the sweet aroma of the vents should really get checked at some point.

I wholeheartedly believe that straight men are envious of gay men and their relative freedom from patriarchal pressures. A gay man can walk into a bar and order a “girly” cocktail if he wants to. He can cry and be outwardly emotional. He can be vulnerable and sensitive. He doesn’t always have to be “in charge.” These pressures slowly crush cishet men and when they see someone free of that weight they feel a deep jealousy.
It occurs to me that this is something homophobia and fatphobia have in common.
So many diet cultists lose their minds when presented with a fat person who isn't miserable and shame-ridden and celibate. They view thinness as a prerequisite to having basic human dignity, in the same way that homophobes/transphobes view gender conformity as a prerequisite to having basic human dignity.
Body policing is the same.
Read some actual comics, Kyle.
Superman is an incredibly kind and tender character. (If he’s not being written that way, then he’s not being written well.) He inspires hope not just through his heroics, but also through his kindness toward other people. That’s his thing. Don’t you DARE call tenderness a “weakness.” Get your toxic masculinity the hell away from me and go read a badly written Batman comic if you want a “tough” male character.
Why on EARTH would someone think Superman being tough and Superman being kind are contradictory?
Is that a Snyder fan telling someone that “you’re wrecking the character, create something new instead of making an interpretation that’s so off-base”?
Because Snyder is the guy who wanted the Greek Gods to all be Kryptonians and the Amazons to be descended from them.
Where's that comic where Superman comforts Billy?
I saw that tweet by Gunn and thought “So, like regular Superman?”
Kyle sounds like Lex Luthor who believed that Superman doesn’t have a Civilian identity because such a godlike being would see it as beneath him. Also here you go @simon-newman
These few pages legit make me cry
Only the strong can be gentle, because the weak don’t have the option of causing harm. Gentleness is the virtue that Superman can best exemplify, by being so strong that the only thing stopping him is himself.
I am so glad that someone who actually likes Superman is writing Superman now
Superman has literally always been gentle and tender.
The poster above beat me to it with Peter Cullen's brother Larry. Larry didn't think a whole lot of his younger brother's line of work, because honestly acting and voice acting is a hard way to make a living, especially in the early 1980s. But he needed to borrow Larry's car to get to the audition, and Larry decided to give his brother some advice.
"If you're gonna be a hero, be a real hero. Don't be one of those Hollywood pretenders, don't go yelling and screaming and pretending you're a tough guy. Be strong enough to be gentle."
Here's the thing about Larry Cullen: Larry Cullen had seen things. He'd seen war and death and the atrocities that men commit upon each other. He was a U.S. Marine Captain during the Vietnam War decorated for battlefield courage (bronze star and two purple hearts). He'd lead men into battle and everything that comes with that. He knew what he was talking, and he'd learned it the hard way.
Superman is cut from the same mold as that. He's strong enough he doesn't need to be a tough guy. Yes, he can literally move mountains, but he's the kindest, gentlest man you've ever met. The thing with Superman to remember, at least from my view, is that Superman is a facade that Clark puts up. Because he's just Clark, and even without the powers... he wouldn't change a single thing in his actions.
