  • It's called the scrub mommy because it has a soft side :)

    (I didn't make that up, thats their advertising).

    Also it does 2x the work for less money than the scrub daddy costs. I didn't make that up either, but it's true, they're cheaper, and that's very funny.

  • Sure, I read your back and forth earlier this morning with that other person, and I agree that if there is even a little room for semantic loopholes, assholes will use it, so it's better to just be annoyingly specific. At this point in our country's lifetime, lawmakers should know this, and the crown act should have been so beurocratically definitive of all aspects of hair. But also school officials should be worried about teaching all kids, not this dumb bullshit. :(

    xx hope your day is nice and you're having a good hair day

  • I'm a white girl. My hairstyle is "long". It's my entire personality.

    What they are doing to this young man is grotesque, but I'm not at all surprised the superintendent is being so petty. He's nothing more than an overgrown racist high school bully.

  • This is the original meaning of the phrase "the customer is always right". It's been warped by "karen" types into a weapon used against minimum wage workers, but what it's supposed to mean is "the customer is always right in matters of taste". Meaning if a company doesn't want to do something because they think it's dumb but the demographic says "I like that" then the customer is right, and the company should do it. I know the dwarf tag isn't about money, but it's still a matter of listening to the customers on the platform.

  • My mother was the abuser in my home. She abused me and my father. That fact doesn't prevent me from knowing that men are statistically more likely to be the aggressor. I don't know what I'm trying to say with this comment. Life is scary and hard enough. May we all only share and receive kindness.

    Xx love you.

  • I would subscribe and contribute to this community for sure. So often I see amazing things and don't have my phone to capture it, and it would be a cool place to share some of those things, both serious and silly ♡

  • I used to babysit a little girl who, if she saw someone in a skirt or dress, would run up to them and say, "Hey! Hey! Um. Does your dress spin?" And of course, even strangers knew the only correct response was to perform the most elaborate twirl and make that dress spin. Now, over a decade later, when I'm shopping for dresses, I always give them a test spin to make sure they're wooshy enough.

    Thank you for reminding me of that memory this morning, it sparked joy :)

  • I dont have Twitter or children, but I know some school districts exclusively use Twitter to announce school closings or delays from weather. To play devil's advocate towards myself, parents could just listen to the radio or watch their local news, both of which usually/used to have school closings listed.

    I don't have an opinion abt this, I just have friends that are still on Twitter because they follow their kid's schools.

  • I have similar thoughts for a solution- just don't have any sex or gender indicators on ID cards. Have a whole separate medical card that isn't for identification. You keep it in your wallet in case you're ever in an emergency, and doctors will use it to know if they should treat you like an xx or an xy or something else if it so applies. It could have a list on the back where you write any current medications, so a Dr knows what interactions your body might have to any treatments. This would be useful if, for example, you're a female presenting biologically xy Trans person who shows up unconscious in an ambulance. Then the doctor can look at that person's card and say "I will give this person the medical care that an XY person needs" vs saying "this person's ID card says male but they look female, should the treatment be for a man or a woman?"

    As a non medical professional I'm sure I am oversimplifying the ordeal and glossing over important points, but it's just something I've thought a lot.

  • My orange boy was also the smartest cat I've ever had. I do love the "one orange braincell" meme, but I've always heard the... idk, rumor? Wives tale?... that orange cats were the best hunters, and that was true for my guy.

  • I mean you're not far off, -280 plus -145, plus -37 overdraft fee for each of those automatic withdraws that came out before the check deposits in a few hours, even tho they'll all be dated 8/25 on my bank statement. The 280 said "pending" since before midnight, went negative at 12 on the dot, the 145 came out at 3am, and the checks don't go in til 9 :')
