I saw that pic on TMZ; it’s from the next day (Sunday) according to the story. Notice that her hair is parted on the other side than she normally parts it and it covers up the entire area the photo shows bruised. Makeup can also do an amazing job and she was not badly beaten- it could be pretty easily ameliorated with…

Considering that loads of modern and contemporary art is essentially about trolling the viewer/art establishment, this “art project” is a legit and kinda brilliant work of art. The meta just ads to this being a great sample for his art school application.

Christ. They’re all big. Pigs get huge. Potbellies at 200 pounds are the small ones. There’s no such thing as “micro” or “teacup” pigs - they’re not real, existing breeds. They are simply some small individual potbellied pigs, usually because they’ve been starved - either way this, however, is not normal. Any supposed…

“Even mini/ teacup/micro pigs get larger than most dogs.”

If an animal has “teacup” in front of its name, it is NOT A THING. It is a ripoff, and likely very badly bred, and is named something cutesy just to take advantage of people who don’t mind paying big bucks for something because it is “soooo cute.” No. Just say no. Support RESPONSIBLE breeding and stop trying to…

No. Do not link! Stop creating a demand for “exotic pets” while millions of pets are being euthanized each year. Even mini/ teacup/micro pigs get larger than most dogs. It is not fair to the animal to be someone’s vanity pet. If you must get any sort of pet, fucking adopt.

I love the “I had no idea pigs could get this big” about a pot-belly, a real pig like Berkshire or a Duroc is three times that size.

That’s because there’s actually no such thing as mini or micropigs. Anything advertised as a mini pig is just a regular pig or potbellly pig that has been starved to stay small. It’s really cruel and mean :(

Yep. She said “they were actually Vietnamese Pot-Bellied Pigs, which typically grow to 200 pounds, unlike teacup pigs that top out at about 60 pounds” but that’s really not true. It sounds like she got confused.

Dude, can you please remove that damn link to pigs for sale?! For f*cks sake, let’s not encourage idiots who think it sounds fun for 5 seconds to have a pig! There’s actually a growing number of pigs entering animal shelters and once former pets being sold at auction for slaughter after the dumb humans who bought them…

Tea cup pigs don’t even exist. They are only that small as babies. People started selling them and telling people that as long as they don’t feed them a lot, they will stay tiny forever. Well yeah, they won’t grow because you are essentially starving them.

Who’s heard of Esther the Wonder Pig, who was adopted by her dads believing her to be a “micro pig” and instead she grew to almost 700 lbs, as many pigs are wont to do? People, do your research.

If this shady af PI saw this misconduct in 2008, why is he only piping up 8 years later?

Suppressive person. It’s a Scientology term used to describe “antisocial” people (which usually means people who dislike Scientology).

Democrats: this right here is why you have to turn out for mid term elections and care about the down ticket elections. Because our government is surprisingly lousy with bat shit people like this that you’d give the “is this guy competent?”side eye to if they were your barista at Starbucks. But they get in because no…

It is so fucked up that that story is used as a joke. The woman’s kid was killed and eaten by wild dogs, and she was accused of murder.

Yes. Also, I encountered Dingos camping on Frazier Island - one of them ran off with my friend’s sleeping bag, another got his pants (don’t ask). There is no doubt in my mind that dingos would take a baby.

The part of mental illness I find so heartbreaking is that anosognosia, the denial that one has an illness, is so often a symptom of a mental illness. I have friends that have been frequently hospitalized just long enough to be minimally stable, but not long enough that they are medicated for sufficient time to…

There would be many who’d say that if someone “laywered up” after a crime was committed, they must be guilty. The court of public opinion is often the least fair and most damning one.
