Houma, Lafitte, Vacherie, and Port Fourchon are underwater as well due to Hurricane Ida. I’ve read some rescue tweets of people stating there’s a number of residents (one being a pregnant woman) who are trapped in their attics after trying to escape the rising water. There’s power outages in New Orleans and other Parishes. as well as some parts of Mississippi. 

All of this in the middle of a pandemic… 

I have friends in New Orleans that I haven’t heard from since yesterday. I’m hoping they received that alert that the electricity isn’t estimated to be returned until a month from now for New Orleans and other Parishes. Yes, a whole fucking month. However, the transmission tower is nonexistent at this point. 

From this:

To this:

Was the 30-day estimate for everyone to receive power before or after they seen this demolished structure? I can’t even wrap my head around this. Complete devastation from what they’re experiencing and the lack of media coverage.

Wait people complain about bull terrier heads..? I've never heard of it causing issues for the dog, do people just not like it because they look funny??? I'm not a fan of bull terriers (their ginormous heads with tiny little beady eyes kind of creep me out) but if it's not causing harm I just... Why would people be upset

This is why.

The oft-regurgitated Pedigree Dogs Exposed point on the bull terrier skull, where she photoshopped the image to match her point. How do I know it’s photoshopped?

Because this is what actual Bull Terrier skulls look like. But I have more than once been accused of lying when I point out that the skulls do not look like the PDE image, and that that would be significant warping of the jaw and face itself, and the dogs would not look as they currently do if that was actually how their faces worked.

But, of course, PDE relied a lot of shock value, and hiding lies within truth and extreme language, and these skulls don’t look so shocking, so they weren’t used. But you’ll still see that image pop up whenever discussions on how breeds were just better 100 years ago happen, and it always bothers me.

Especially, as said, when seeing some of my other stopless terrier clients and realizing how adding that bony ridge along the top of the face is really all that’s necessary to recreate the classic egghead look. I even see this head shape in working line dobes.

Imagine a baby being born but instead of screaming it just looks thoroughly displeased about its recent experience.

Fur farms can be run ethically and fur is better for the environment than faux, we take the fur from cows and I don't see anyone kicking up a stink about that. We take the down from goose and ducks and I don't see anyone kicking up a stink about that.

Was just wondering if you have any thoughts on Saveafox?

Dumb as hell. Fur farming isn’t inherently bad and foxes are not a conservation concern at all. Donate to actual conservation organisations.

Cats are very good at hunting - NATIVE SPECIES THAT SHOULD BE PROTECTED BECAUSE CATS ARE NOT, SURPRISE, A NATIVE SPECIES BUT ARE AN INVASIVE SPECIES TO MOST ECOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTS. Idiots man I swear. Finish your sentences. Keep your cats inside. Let your kids shit glue.

How can you justify keeping your cats inside all the time if you can acknowledge that they do in fact want to go outside and hunt?

How can you justify not letting your child eat glue if you can acknowledge that they do in fact want to eat glue?

everyone’s debating posts of the decade, best and worst, and i have yet to see anyone mention moon moon

Okay guys I’m just gonna say this, if you get mentioned in any of these Ray Ban charity event posts. DO NOT CLICK ON IT. It is a phishing website. DO not click on it unless you have the correct add blockers and safety precautions. I’ve gotten mentioned in at least 20 of these at this point, and a lot of them are from people I follow. That is because they have been hacked. They clicked on this link and their account was hacked. Please don’t click on this. I’m just bringing some more awareness to this.

My mom used to work for BA (we grew up in Birmingham two minutes from the airport) and let me tell you that captain got a standing ovation from all the staff when he came back to work after that incident.

I think about British Airways Flight 5390 a lot

I haven't updated y'all on Váli for a while

He's still doing Váli things, being a Váli, being a muscular active beast with the personality trait of that really sweet nerd who watches way too many crime shows.

When you ask to pet a working dog, don't be upset if you get a short answer. You're not the first person we've had ask that day, hell you're probably not even the second person in an hour that has asked to touch or has touched without permission.

Don't get upset because we get short with you, get upset because so many people have already done what you have tried to do that you have put us on the defensive before you even get close to us.

Before you even say a word, I know. I try to get in the way.

Before you even reach out, I know. I try to say no.

Before you even get close to us, I know. I try to get the dog into a position where you can't touch him.

I don't want to hear about how you lost your dog, I've already heard another story today. I don't want to hear about how your friend raises guide dog puppies, it's got nothing to do with me.

I don't want to tell you what conditions I have, it's got nothing to do with you. I don't want to let your kids pet my dog, he's not there for your entertainment.

You can huff, puff, make comments, you're not the first one to do it and you definitely will not be the last. You can get upset, lose your temper, call us names and become a two year old. We've seen it all before.

So when you see a working dog all decked out in its gear, and you see its handler walking next to it, leave the damn dog alone so we can go about our day.
