personally i think those engagement pics are tedious, adding the dog makes it fun

I’m not exactly sure why we’re even still talking about this. I don’t care if you want your dog in your engagement photo shoot or not. Personally, there’s only so many “Cute couple wearing matching sweaters pose in a pile of leaves” pics I can see, so I think a dog spices things up

Why the heck is there even a function on this machine that could cause someone to die within seconds? It sounds like one of Futurama’s suicide booths.

the Kardashians aren’t white, first of all. second of all, this refers to a movie which was - what? - about girl scouts in beverly hills? i am sorry it’s offensive but it seems so far removed from native american culture that - - i didn’t even equate it with actual native american culture. it did not even occur to me…

The only real annoyance is the term that people use to describe a second shower. A “sprinkle”. It sounds creepy.

Right? Like what kind of heartless philistine could hate on this? Looks awesome.

I think it actually could have been better communicated by breaking things down thusly:

Oh, Finchlet 1.0 understands just fine (cooperation is another matter). But his speech is very delayed and he has difficulty forming certain parts of speech, problematic consonants and such. At the moment he chooses to speak, when he does speak, in a dog-whistle falsetto, so family dinners are frequently punctuated…

As an autistic woman, that part bothered me a lot. It should have been something more like, “When you talk with Julia be straightforward and say what you mean.”

They way they worded it makes it sound like people with ASD are stupid.

Kudos to Sesame Street for adding this character. I believe this will help children understand and accept autistic children. Many autistic kids have trouble meeting and sustaining friendships. As a father of a 14 year old boy with autism it's heartbreaking to see my son with no real friends. Any acceptance is welcome.

Right? I heard someone complain about a woman breastfeeding at an NFL game. Yet was a-ok with what all the skin that the cheerleaders were showing.

Well, everyone knows female bodies in the public space serve as objects for straight male sexual consumption. Non-sexual functions remind the patriarchy that women are humans and we can’t be having that.

well my first day or two it’s about every 2 hours. luckily the next 2 days it’s much much less. but the first 2 days i get the works - heavy flow, cramps in my stomach and back, period poops, the whole thing. luckily (maybe?) i skip a period about every 3 months.

Because breast augmentation is fine because men enjoy big ol’ boobies. But alluding to a totally natural, totally necessary bodily process that defines the female experience and can’t be objectified? Nasty. Get that shit out of my face, bro. Totally killing my boner.

Yeah, most people do. I don’t, because of my Asperger’s and often really wish I could have them because they are useful.
