Margin/Padding & Line Spacing & Pre-Loading

Three things:

• I changed the text-align to left, so all text is aligned to the left border. But the text is so far away from the picture. What can I change that will bring the text closer to the profile picture and remove all the empty space?
• All the lines of text have so much space between each other. What can I change to lessen the spacing between lines of text?
• When I load a page, even after it has completely finished loading, the hovercards do not automatically appear when I hover over an image. They do not begin working until about four or five seconds after I hover over a profile picture for the first time after loading the page. I’d like the hovercards to be loaded with the page. What can I do to make that happen?

Thank you so much!
