Dog Howls At Girl Playing The Flute


That's got to be the laziest howl we've ever seen. Homie doesn't even bother to get up or raise his head. Just lays there and lets it rip.

Quick Tumblr Post On Romantic Friendships


Why'd they have to go and do us like that? Normally we can count on the wandering minds of Tumblr to consistently deliver entertaining gems. Sometimes though, things get a bit confusing. Like in this quick Tumblr post. Are we witnessing nothing more than some folks who never learned about what it means to hang out with your friends before? Maybe.

Text - hattedhedgehog *Quietly raises hand* Actually what the OP was talking about is a real thing: Queerplatonic (adj): a word for describing relationships where an intense emotional connection transcending what people usually think of as 'friendship' is present, but the relationship is not romantic in nature; people in a queerplatonic relationship may think of themselves as partners, may plan on spending their lives together, etc. The 'queer' is a reference to the idea of queering relationship

Text - pluckydoodle while friendship is the level of being friends, if it were a scale then queerplatonic would be in between friendship and a romantic relationship because there is a deeper connection than just friendship that is like the attachment level of a romantic relationship without the romantic feelings straightallies oh ok, so like this! best friend noun a person's closest friend.

25 Technically Correct Moments That Aren't Exactly Wrong


It's impossible to be right all the time, but "right" has a friend named "technically correct" who plays a lot faster and looser with the rules. Something can be technically accurate and not wrong in a way that feels clever on a good day and mind-blowingly dumb every other day. The fact remains, you can't argue with technically accurate.

Co-Worker Expects Free Dinner Two Weeks After Operation


On the one hand some of this is completely understandable if you go through a serious operation, but that doesn't excuse the nasty, entitled tone at all. It's the wildest thing that people expect other people to go out of their way to be nice to them, when they can't even be bothered to act vaguely decent in the first place. 

1.

Text - 1 レ Are you getting dinner today? M isn't in so it's just me and you Not today, I've brought mine in cos I'm skint til Friday haha Fuck sake what am I supposed to do then? I don't know, perhaps go get dinner by yourself?

2.

Text - I need you to go because I need to take my dinner early So could you just go to morrisons for me and get some chicken bites and wedges I won't have any time because l've got to go to pick cl is literally next to a shop, can't you just get something from there ?

3.

Text - No I fancy chicken bites Not my problem? But I don't have time Again, not my problem? Fuck sake, now I'm gunna be late back from dinner just because you won't do me one little favour? Honestly thought you were nicer than that

4.

Text - Ok Ok? You're not even bothered are you? Didn't think someone I work with could be so horrible to me. I had an operation only TWO WEEKS ago, I still can't do everything by myself but l'll just struggle because you're just choosing to be lazy!!!

5.

Text - 3 Two weeks is a long time and they literally cut your fingernail down because it's infected. Perhaps next time they'll chop ye arm off and l'l give you a hand then In the mean time, please learn some manners and understand if you ask politely and not just demand stuff I wouldn't mind doing you just a little favour Okay so will you please go get it for me then?

6.

Text - Hahhahahahaha No Why tell me to use manners then? This is so fucking stupid, not even talking about this anymore. Don't talk to me when I get in.

Customer Reports Ordering Issue On Restaurant's Site, Site Comes Undone


Man, to have been the tech support involved with this conundrum. What started as an innocent enough update from the customer about the online ordering system not working, ended up evolving into a full on mess. Technology can be wildly frustrating like that. One little piece being moved around can bring the whole dang tower toppling down. 

Check out some more tech support drama with this belligerent customer who wouldn't cooperate with tech support.

Neither of us did any grocery shopping, so we were trying last-minute to find a restaurant in the area that offers Thanksgiving delivery dinners. You know, support local busine

2.

Text - We were in the middle of doing our "research" by comparing food options and prices when I found one website that looked like it offered a pretty good deal: Three course meal, additional appetizers, optional cocktails, nice! Only thing is, it's a little pricey... so maybe we can skip the cocktails and open one of the wine bottles we've been saving for a nice night-in, instead. I decide to click through the order just to see how much this dinner might cost. First page: I select a 4pm delive

3.

Text - Fourth page: I try to skip the cocktail option and... uhh... it looks like I need to choose a cocktail before I place my order? Odd. Okay, let's just select one to keep things moving along. Fifth page: Review and confirm my order... but, I don't want the cocktail so I try to a little backdoor maneuver to edit my order before putting down my credit card. Hmm, no luck. Might be best to call the restaurant and ask whether I can place the order over the phone. When I call, I explain the situa

4.

Text - The call ends. A few minutes go by. I try the website again. I click through the first page, second page, and third page. So far, so good until... wait. The cocktail page has been completely removed, and so has the option to review and confirm my order. Maybe it's my phone? l'll try on my laptop. Nope. Same problem. I all the restaurant back and the nice hostess answers again. "Hi, I just called. I'm having a different problem with the website though..." After some frantic, inaudible scre

5.

Text - The call ends. A few minutes go by. I try the website again. The option to place a Thanksgiving dinner is completely gone. Fuck. This is all my fault. I should've just ordered the damn cocktail and been done with it. Before I can call the restaurant back, my phone is already ringing. I answer and the nice hostess is locked in the middle of a screaming match with the man I spoke with last time. No idea what they're relationship is, but I imagine it makes for some pretty interesting dinner

6.

Text - The man pleads for the phone, then assures me (again) that he knows how to fix it. They'll call me back when the website is ready. Excellent customer service. The call ends and my girlfriend is quietly giving me one of those "what did you do" stares from the other side of the couch. The dog is more understanding. He gets me. A few minutes go by and I curiously refresh the page a few times to catch glimpses of their "progress." The first refresh reveals that the Thanksgiving dinner option

7.

Text - My phone rings again and this time it is a new man with a low, deep voice. We have not spoken before, but he knows my name. I start to sweat, but that's probably just the COVID symptoms. He's calling from the same restaurant number as before, but this time there is no commotion in the background. Everything is eerily silent on his end. He calmly asks me to explain everything from the very beginning. Once l'm done, he tells me he'll call me back shortly. The call ends and I keep my eyes lo

8.

Text - The phone rings again and the man with the deep voice asks me to go back to the website. He's worked his magic and the site has been miraculously restored to how I originally found it when I first tried to place my order. Over the phone, I talk him through each step and he understands what needs to be done. He tells me again that he'll call me back in a bit. The call ends and I slowly lean over to my girlfriend to proudly let her know that l'm helping to leave the world in a better place

9.

Text - TL;DR Accidentally found a problem with a restaurant's website for Thanksgiving takeout and tried calling to let them know, which quickly snowballed into the entire website not working. Wound up spending over an hour calling each other back and forth until the website was finally working properly again. 14.8k 390 ↑, Share

Tumblr Thread: Fur Clothing Vs. Vegan Clothing


This informative Tumblr thread shines light on the reasoning behind some people choosing to wear fur clothing, in spite of the controversy such a fashion decision can generate. Sounds like it boils down to the longevity of the clothing, and also how fur can potentially be most effective at keeping someone warm when they're trying to brave a dangerously cold Canadian arctic tundra. 

1.

Text - teaboot Follow I understand why people dislike leather and animal products. But leather is such a good resource? Like... My mom bought a sturdy leather coat in 1989. I'm in my 20's and I now wear that coat. That's a 30 year old coat? 30 years, two generations, one coat. Versus, like... A plastic one, that rips and gets thrown out, or releases bits into the ecosystem every time it's washed, takes a billion years to decompose, lasts maybe a decade if you're super duper careful, and uses oil

2.

Text - Like, yeah leather is expensive and comes from a living animal, and I'm not saying that you should go out and buy fifty fur and leather products for the he'll of it, but like... Maybe the compromise is worth it? One animal product, valued and respected and worn down for generations, versus like... Six plastic products that will never ever go away? idk, I could be wrong.

3.

Text - 800-dick-pics Follow this is why im so fucking pissed white colonial fucks and white vegans get so enraged at indigenous people for using hides/leather and animal bones as if that shit breaks or rips like cheap polyester does drtanner Follow Remember, kids: It's not "vegan wool", it's plastic. It's not "vegan leather", it's plastic. It's not "vegan fur", it's fucking plastic. It's all plastic.

4.

Text - It's all fucking plastic, and every time you wash it, or damage it, or try to dispose of it, that plastic winds up in the water, in the earth, in the air. Hell, the damage has already done when the fucking thing's been made. As the OP says, it's all oil and oil products; it creates pollution just to produce synthetic fabrics and materials, even before you try to throw them away, which, I mean, good luck with that. A lot of vegan ideology is built up around a very superficial set of ethics

5.

Text - bit below the surface. Every time you eschew an animal-based product in favour of something "synthetic" for the sake of "saving an animal's life", you're creating pollution and trash that won't go away for thousands of years, damaging the Earth and making life so much worse for countless animals and people. Think about this stuff more than not at all, please. appropriately-inappropriate Follow Eeeeeeverybody loves to get up my asshole because I wear fur. Yeah? Okay then.

6.

Text - When you live somewhere with -40C winter temperatures, you realize that pragmatism and warmth trump all other considerations. I'm in and out of cars and buildings all day, every day. I have to dress for the weather and fur is hands down one of the warmest things you can wear – ask - the fucking Inuit. So you know what I do? I check consignment stores. I check estate auctions. I get family heirloom furs.

7.

Text - I buy furs that are literally older than I am, in styles that would consign them to the dumpster, and then get them tailored to fit. My fur earmuffs? Salvaged fur from a coat that was ripped and functionally useless. My fur short coat? A fur that got raggedy and moth-eaten at the bottom and so was hemmed to hip height. My long fur coat is almost fifteen years older than I am, and l'm thirty one years old. Do that math. So yes. I wear fur, because it fits my needs, my budget, and my ethics

8.

Text - mycroft-valentine Follow Not to mention the fact that buying these natural leather products from indigenous peoples both subverts capitalism (that wants you to buy cheap shit that breaks), and also supports indigenous communities and artisans. appropriately-inappropriate Follow I'm reading the notes and it's really cute when people go “but use hemp! Use cotton! Try linen!" Yeah? Imma wear linen when the weather looks like this:

Fur - When the weather outside is frightful, I'mma make like an Inuit and dress like this:

12.

Text - (Also, as you say: it is possible to responsibly source ethical furs. I prefer furriers like Victoria Kakuktinniq, who is an Indigenous Inuit fashion designer who interprets traditional fur designs for a modern sensibility. The funds from her clothing – and from other northern Indigenous communities – allows those northern communities to maintain their cultural traditions, while also introducing a much-needed revenue stream. If you have to buy fresh fur, Indigenous furriers are a good bet

13.

Text - appropriately-inappropriate Follow Which part is *passive aggressive sigh*? Would it be the: -reuse of fabrics and furs that are generally anywhere from 10-50 years old? -recycling and repurposing of old or otherwise unusable materials like leather and fur to make smaller items like jackets, vests, gloves, hats and balaclavas? -support for Indigenous traditions, handicrafts and artisans? -recognition of the fact that there are very few plant-based products that will stand up to winters wh

14.

Text - temperature is anywhere from -20 to -50 I know, I know. Your ethics are itchy and it's very simple to talk that good shit. But let me introduce you to a Canadian phenomena: frostbite. Frostbite occurs when your cells freeze. Your cells. Ice crystals begin to form in cells in temperatures lower than -4C, which is what Canadians call "spring, fucking finally".

15.

Text - In the teeth of winter, you get maybe ten hours of sunlight a day and your highest temperature is still double digits below OC and the weather channel is saying "WEATHER WARNING: skin freezing in 30SECONDS", and the government has put out a WEATHER EMERGENCY: EXTREME COLD WARNING. When the weather is that severe, we don't actually get the luxury of waxed cotton, woollen peacoats and a few layers of linen. Sanctimony and sighs and good intentions don't keep us warm.

16.

Text - systlin Follow Seriously, it hit -50F here last winter, linen and cotton don't do fuckall in those temps. Well, that's not true. They DO, actually. They get wet from sweat and then get clammy and suck the heat out of you, leading to frostbite. Polyester is plastic, and I avoid that, because it's bad for the environment. You know what actually keeps you warm when it hits -50F? Wool, fur, and down. All animal products, all renewable and biodegradable, and all of which will last years with p

17.

Text - I have two fur coats, both of which I paid $20 or less for at thrift stores, and both | of which are vintage. Wool doesn't harm the sheep it's sheared from...they need to be sheared to stay healthy, actually... and down is harvested from animals that will be eaten, meaning none of the animal goes to waste. systlin racing-fag Ur a fool if u think it doesnt harm sheeps

18.

Pasture - * racing-fag U only think about it how u shave ur hair and forget how sheep have 2 live and how they r treated

19.

Adaptation - Ah, yes. Truely, sheep live terribly. (Note; sheep wool is useless unles they have good pasture they're raised on) YouTube

20.

Text - YouTube: TheJournal.ie - Sheep Shearing De... Ah, yes, the sheep are so mistreated when they're sheared. A whole four minutes and they're done. It's like giving a fussy toddler a haircut. And if they're NOT shorn, you get flystrike, which I'm not going to post a pic of here because it is very unpleasant. Basically, flies lay eggs on the thick wool and the larvae eat the sheep's skin off. It can be fatal.
