My pug doesn’t mind it. It chases around my miniature schnauzer (he’s a white dog on a white floor) but it doesn’t really bother him either. I only run it while I'm home because it gets caught in certain areas and requires rescuing.

Yes, but Oscar Isaac will be in it! There’s still hope!

Why the fuck is it that just about every god damn movie about contact or arrivals; what have you, regarding alien life visiting earth always ends up in fucking war. I just don’t get it. Ok, explosions and missiles and navy fleets sell from a Hollywood pov, but fucking come on man. Is there no possible notion that they…

I swear to Bejesus, if the alien just looks like Amy Adams’ dad at the end...

I’m super curious about what this movie will be like. The original (SHORT) story is about a mother’s relationship with her daughter, and some aliens who are “observing” us. No explosions, no human death. Lots of scientific process over the course of months.

Yeah, like I said on the io9 article, it really seems like they’re taking a very small, intimate story and trying to turn it into a large-scale, high-stakes blockbuster movie. I have a feeling all the cool philosophical themes that make up the real meat of the original story are going to be completely overshadowed,…

You might be surprised. I have a very anxious dog and he's fine with the roomba. I mean, he goes up onto the bed, he can't share floor space with an active vacuum, but he's ok. Maybe if you can find a friend with a roomba you could do a trial run.

They’re trying to craft a TBI from a few awkward moments that Clinton’s had while completely ignoring the *constant* actual unhinged and/or awkward statements from their own candidate.

What amuses me the most about the Clinton scaremongering is that it’s coming from people who absolutely worship Ronald Reagan, who really did suffer from a neurological condition (alzheimer’s) while in office and hide it from the public. I’m sure every single of one these people would retroactively defend Reagan’s…

I’m an old so I’ve definitely heard of that! Wtf

My mom wouldn’t let me have baths on my period. Just showers. Ughhhh

My poor friend, Rosemarie had such terrible cramps that she was given muscle relaxers and then she would become a bit- floppy. One day she was having no relief after one so she took a second. We were in American Lit and Mr. Wilson (Often referred to as Twisted Wilson) was having a pissy ass day of his own. I am…

I actually shower more often when I’m on my period. I never heard any of these myths. The only thing that comes close is that if you work with animals you should expect them to react a bit differently when you’re having your period because they might smell it.

I bathe REPEATEDLY, everyday, the first few days.

Same. A hot bath makes all the difference in the world—as does my hot water bottle, and the Excedrin that has caffeine in it.

There were a couple of girls from Singapore on my dorm floor in college who did not bathe or shower during their periods. You could smell them through the door. Their BO was gagworthy.

Not to quote my own kinja pic but wtf?
