“““babysits””” his kids

This is both completely unhelpful and hilariously spot-on. Good Kinja! :P

Yeah, I know. I just have a reflexive need to contradict myself and pretend to believe it’s all in my head because I expect everyone else to see me as crazy and overly emotional. If you’re not familiar with that particular social instinct, ask a woman. :/

“And there’s lots of good stuff online, though sorting the good from the bad could be challenging for a child or teen.”

I wish so badly that I could remember exactly what it was, but at some point in the last month or so, I vaguely recall that someone on Jezebel pointed out this argument between two pundits on the news – I think they were sitting together at a desk, rather than having their talking heads beamed in? – and the moderator…

“Am I wrong to think that it’s pretty arrogant of a man to assume that a person’s gender should define whether or not they are offended by swearing?”

1. To “improve” a line of dogs? Get real. I’m sure selective breeding can be used to encourage certain characteristics or breed out illnesses or whatever, but dog “breeds” as we know them are not something to encourage.

Oh, cool! I always did think it seemed problematic to have all these extraneous royals wandering around. I mean, I get that they’re still part of the family and whatnot, but it seems like there definitely needs to be a cutoff point that prevents the Royals from becoming an entire class of their own. It really seems…

PREACH

Would it, though? I’d sure he’d think so, although I’m also sure he’d do everything in his power to get out of it and then wet his pants on the battlefield if he was forced to go through with it.

Ah, but Hamilton himself was not acting in such a gentlemanly way; before they started, in fact, he was making a big show of trying to get his aim just right. We can’t ever know exactly what was going through his mind, but if he intended to throw away his shot, he intended to do so while making it appear that he was…

I do! Let SNL explain:

I LOVE THIS HOW DID I NEVER STUMBLE UPON THIS GLORIOUS GIF EVER BEFORE

I never understood why anyone thought Harry was good-looking until just the past few years. I think it’s a combination of “growing into” his face and the fact that he looks better with a beard. With that being said, he could have completely deformed face and look like Dreamy McDreamykins when he looks at Meghan and…

Yep. If you want a happy, healthy pup that will stick around for a long while, make it a mutt. And no matter what, DO NOT buy a “pure”bred (read:inbred) dog from a breeder (or a pet shop that’s gets them from a breeder), because then you’re financing that awful inbreeding operation and helping create more dog health…

My favorite part is at the 1-minute mark, when she says “Be careful, Dad!” as though she thinks she could actually go flying out the laundry basket just because he’s tipping it and shaking it around a bit. 🤣

I bet that could actually be really great if you could train an assistant (co-parent, sibling, etc.) to change the speed on the fan and point it from different angles. I suppose the only problem would be the fan blocking the screen. :/

Oof, stories like this always punch me in the gut. My dog is 8 and I’ve been terrified of his inevitable death since he was a puppy. :(

I can’t speak for how Aimée personally defines her queerness, but as a general rule, “gay” is the exact opposite of “straight,” while “queer” could mean anything but “straight,” the same way that “person of color” could mean anything but “white.”

...But, you know, he shouldn’t have come so close to taking a shot in the first place. He was a cool dude, but in the end, he was a macho idiot who thought it would be a good idea to risk his life in order to stage a dramatic confrontation and make a big show of generously sparing his opponent’s life at the last…
