If your period is really bad, I guess so. The first day or two of my period, I’m pretty useless. I get severe nausea, I do have a prescription I take for it but it makes me very sleepy so either way, I can’t do anything. The fluid loss also makes me very weak. This fluid loss is probably the reason I crave sugary and

Pretty much. While the show was pretty progressive for its time, because of network restrictions Roddenberry wasn’t able to do as much as he wanted. Hell, in the original pilot, a woman was second-in-command. Even if he wanted to have an openly gay character (I still maintain that Kirk and Spock had a thing) the

Also, I follow news on the Southern Residents. Not a single one has a collapsed fin right now.

LOL, they’re doing such a bad job of handling shit, it’s hilarious. This probably wouldn’t have blown up in their face if they came out and said “We know there are problems, here’s what we’re doing to fix it” instead of putting their fingers in their ears and saying “EVERYTHING HERE IS PERFECT LA LA LA I CAN’T HEAR

This. People were criticizing SeaWorld long before Blackfish.

... 25% of Southern Residents don’t have collapsed dorsal fins. SeaWorld misquoted a study. The study in question was about New Zealand orca, 25% of which have dorsal fin abnormalities. (only one had full collapse) Do more research. Also, dorsal fin collapse in the wild is usually a result of stress, illness, or

If these people have degrees in marine biology, there are other jobs they can go for.

The marine mammal sanctuaries are merely proposed, they don’t currently exist. People are hoping that SeaWorld will just agree to help make sanctuaries and put their cetaceans there.

People want the animals to be “phased out” of captivity. Meaning, that the animals would stay in captivity, but they wouldn’t be bred. If SeaWorld got shut down, the animals would get sent to other facilities.

For high school, my bus came at 6:30 am, so I had to get up at 6. Hated it.

So many articles in general seem to be written under the assumption that the reader has a well-paying office-type job. Like, I hate reading articles with “money saving tips” and then it’s full of basic, common sense shit like “buy store brand instead of name brand!” or “don’t eat at restaurants as much!”. Anyone who

I always find it funny that, at least in the US, there are Christian versions of like, everything. Christian sports clubs, Christian alternatives to popular toys and comics, all those Christian parody shirts and stickers and shit. (like a shirt that looks like the Tide logo, except is says Jesus DIED for your sins”)

High quality custom items are always gonna cost a lot of money. It’s kind of a bummer when it comes to stuff that isn’t normally mass produced, so expensive customs are the only option if you want ‘em. I can make some decent cetacean plushies, when I get consistently good I wanna try making an Etsy shop to sell

I bet in a few years, someone is gonna start campaigning for laws to protect children on reality shows. They have a lot of the problems that famous child actors have, possibly worse since at least child actors can get some privacy in their own home, and they aren’t famous for their personal lives. Kids on reality

I don’t think most states have laws to protect child entertainers. Also, kids on reality shows don’t have the same protections as child actors and singers. They might not be getting money in the first place.

I’m making plushies myself, and I can only hope to reach this level of quality someday. I’d love to try and sell some if I can get good enough.

I think it would be really funny to make up a fake show called Welfare Queens. It’s about exactly as it sounds. Trick people into thinking it’s a real show, watch them get mad.

I think they’ve donated money to some Tea Party candidates, but surely they have some saved up. I don’t actively follow them, but from what I have seen they don’t seem to spend money ridiculously. Maybe they do have money, but they’re scared. They might’ve thought the show would last forever, but now that the gravy

I don’t think the boys got a particularly good education either, so their options will also be limited.

How ridiculous. They probably have a ton of money saved up from the TV show, book sales, paid appearances, all that shit. From what I can tell, they’ve never lived a super extravagant lifestyle with multiple homes and luxury cars and fancy sailboats and shit, and a lot of the nice things they did get (like the
