Funny! On the other hand, I recall reading an editorial in the early 90's - I think it was by Peter David - where he was responding to a letter written by a fan who said he loved comics, but didn’t want anyone to know because he was afraid of being ridiculed. David’s response was “don’t hide it. If you want comics to…

Kids, don’t in-breed.

Oh, thank you so much for this comment! I laughed so loudly I scared my cat. When I was teaching costume history I would liven up the 17th century lecture with info about the Hapsburg’s famous jawline. Students love anything gross, gruesome, and weird.

It’s the new Hapsburg Chin.

God, I hate that fucking Trump mouth so damn much. She and her brothers all constantly have that doofy expression permanently stapled to their dumb faces.

She went on to say ‘I don’t want to work with people like that’ which implies it wasn’t a friend but a professional in the field. I’m guessing a prospective agent or casting director.

Funny, they told me the opposite if i stopped holding my Marvel Comics in public i might get a girlfriend.

I know Delta, which is a partner of KLM, prohibits any bracy dog or cat in the cargo holds. 

If you have a larger dog, they can’t fly in the seat. Even if I bought a seat for my English setter, which I would happily do, were this option available to me, the airline wouldn’t allow her to fly in it, unless I lied and claimed that she was a service animal, which of course I wouldn’t do. It’s not about not caring…

They can fly with their pet in a seat, or they can arrange for someone else to fly with their pet in a seat, or they can rehome their pet. Or they can choose not to blame others when the 9-month-old animal bred to have breathing problems that they decided to stick in a cargo hold for nine-ish hours dies on them.…

Eh, maybe it’s time for pet owners to commit to either treating their pets as people, in which case they need to be booked a seat appropriate for their size and travel with a minder, or animals, in which case there needs to be another option to flying them half way around the world.

Yeah, the airline I work for doesn’t allow them. But hey, if you’re willing to pay, someone else is always ready to take the chance!

French bulldogs should NEVER be sent in the cargo hold. I’m amazed this was even allowed to happen and by that I mean the dog should have never been booked as cargo. Bracy breeds are almost never allowed. 

My son has similar dietary issues and he also has autism. He goes through phases where he's willing to try lots of new foods (but he doesn't like most of them) then phases where he drops stuff out of his diet seemingly overnight. 

Generally, multivitamins don’t help very much, but in cases of extreme malnutrition like this one, it probably might have done something...

So am a very picky eater and I knew it wouldn’t be good for my health, so from the age of 12 I started taking multi-vitamins on my own.

For those who don’t understand, being picky is not a choice and I wish I wasn’t.  Food in general causes me much anxiety.

I mean, my mum noticed I had a very restrictive diet (probably for reasons similar to this condition) and had me on multivitamins. They were these chalky strawberry things and I didn’t like them (I only liked the gummy ones) but she gave them anyway because my fruit and veg intake as a child despite her best efforts…

I have this condition. It’s a common symptom of autism, as in my case. I hope this boy can find a way to cope with his condition and I hope he gets tested for autism.
