I'm also entering my last week at my job! Woohoo! It has felt so good getting all of the "Holy crap! What are we going to do without you!? You are the best!" emails because it feels really fucking validating that I've been great at my job.

That's not what I'm saying at all… I honestly can't even argue with anyone anymore on this… I feel so sad that people would think that I am encouraging rape culture. I'm working hard against it every day and I never ever slut shame anyone. This is purely about children not being able to consent to having their photos…

Oh, I see. People like me? I'm a professional who works with sexual assault survivors (and I'm a survivor myself), so NO, that is not the case here.

If pedophiles didn't exist, then I would be all for innocent photos like this. But that's not the world we live in. This is one of those areas where I'm of the opinion "don't post this on the internet." Is my comment now going to be met with "Relax! It's an innocent photo of a child! Why would you sexualize this?!" If…

A nice thing about this competition is that vets are there to check every single dog who is entered to ensure that they're not "ugly" for reasons due to neglect from current owners. Wise move, in my opinion. Sad that we need to do that, though…

Sorry, I thought that was implied.

Well, luckily I have a lot of other friends so this isn't a concern about me becoming friendless. More just about these specific friendships changing. It's true, though. I've drifted a lot from childhood friends due to all of the changes in our lives and I've been okay with that.

Thank you! Yes… My worlds colliding has been a bummer. This was perfect.

Sorry this is so long! Bare with me.

I actually don't own a pit. I own a jackchi.

Well we are equally sick of people like you who misplace your blame.

I hate that my formatting got messed up :( Kinjaaaa!

On the outside I'd be like this…

Silicon Valley on HBO. It's awkward and hilarious!

And here I thought we were referencing my new favorite TV show…

Aw no! Your poor pup I don't use greenies so I'll keep that in mind. Thanks!

Yes! I just talked to my dad the other night about this since my university is on the list of schools that are under investigation by the feds. He has said some problematic things in the past (victim-blaming stuff) but he has seemed to adjust those feelings lately. Part of me wonders if my mom told him that I'm a…

I only buy my boy Nutro dog food/treats. They are all natural and are made in U.S. facilities. Plus, his fur is always smooth, his stools are healthy (TMI?), and he never gets sick. Five years and counting with no issues with this brand.

I have this hope that my dog will pass away peacefully in his sleep when he's older. To have to make that decision to put him to sleep would feel impossible for me.
