He doesn't look that little! I doubt the dog would bite him, but it could feel pain and jump up to get away, causing the child to fall. And I have a strong feeling that in their eyes, it would be the service dogs fault. Not the mother's, of course. I have a vision of this kid doing all kinds of things kids who aren't …

Rabbits don't purr exactly, they grind their teeth. This (as odd as it seems) can be a sign of pleasure, but if it gets louder and/or is accompanied by visual signals of stress, such as wide-open eyes or stiffening or curling of the body, it means they're very unhappy indeed and may even be in pain. Here's what…

First off, none of us were there, but it's pretty safe to say that if he had that immediate reaction to the situation he knew the circumstances were that his uncle was taking advantage of his girlfriend who was probably intoxicated being that it was on New Year's.

It unfortunately hasn't been studied that well, but some small studies found that rabbits increase their stress hormones and their breathing and heart rates when they're laid on their backs, consistent with being afraid. The behavior they show afterwards is also consistent with recovering from a stressful experience.…

"I don't want to believe her because I hope she wasn't raped" is a bullshit bitch-slap to victims disguised as sympathy. Fuck off with that nonsense.

Pretty awful.

My dog bit my face once when I was in kindergarten. She was a big dog, a breed often accused of being aggressive and violent. She was the sweetest dog ever, though, and I was a shit of child who was trying to force her to "roll over" when she wanted to nap. It was more of a scrape than a deep wound, and left no…

This is some kind of metaphor for the GOP's attitude towards the poor, I'm 95% sure of it

Unless it was necessary

Nephew was not charged with anything. +1 for the police this time around.

I'm glad they are going to start using a safety seat for Ivy. Frankly, I'm really surprised they didn't do this already, as she probably uses a car seat in their car, right? How do you have a child with special physical needs and not look really closely into solutions for safety in special situations (like flying,…

I understand uber's argument that in high demand periods, you have to pay more in order to get prompt service. But why should a 10 minute car ride ever cost over $100? I thought they were generally supposed to be a cheaper option to traditional cab companies? Anytime I've tried to use them in Austin, they've always…

Misleading headline is misleading. I expected something more like...

Then basically every wedding dress bought is "wasteful". Some people might donate theirs, but most don't. You want me to grab you a step ladder so you don't fall off your high horse?

Nah, shit is not something I lose.

I would rather let my sister wax my pubis than let my mom take naked pictures of me. Now that's a sentence I never thought I'd say!

Oh girl, I hear you. I'm sorry for making you respond to me. I read this site often and you are one of the most level headed and fair contributors.

"I hate both of them!"

Jesus H Christ I am sick of all the haterade on the Internets. Parents fuck up kids by spoiling them, (Hey, I resemble that remark) Parents note kids are a bit out of control and not responding to corrective warnings, Parents take more drastic action to help their kids be more responsible human beings. The only…

what these parents are doing is fine. I know this is shocking....but parents DO make mistakes. Maybe they let stuff get out of hand and now they pay the price by dealing with it. And this is how they deal with it. It sounds like the kids have all they need and will still be celebrating. Nothing bad will come from…
