It’s something you have to worry about in basically all apartments (in the US–despite thin walls and no insulation, I never had loud and inconsiderate neighbors when I lived in Japan). You might get lucky and get a place with good soundproofing, but the odds are slim.
Where the Red Fern Grows
This is so badly needed. I hope they get good traction. Not only do renters get stiffed all the time by outrageous rents/rent increases and illegal non-return of security deposits (and more!), there are also people who sincerely believe that renters shouldn’t even be allowed to vote because they’re “not invested in the community”.

Ohhhhh. I wish that were explained more. My only problem with the term “cis” is that it seemed to come from nowhere, a made-up term out of a random syllable that was suddenly being applied to people.

I know this is a cliche, but I’ve never said it before: I wish I could upvote you more than once.
And it’s not just CS classes. Most classes at the college and above level do this to you. You don’t get a vacation.

So your workload is massive.
Plebs are not allowed to go for walks unless they are using an energy-producing treadmill or bicycle.
As a CS student, my physical health wasn’t allowed to matter, either.
Did you read the article? Because that sounds really egregious.
