We have a hamster. A cute Russian Dwarf. 5yo named her Lilypad. I was barred from the naming after my first suggestion (Putin)

I browsed Amazon later for hamster toys and saw a bad review of a product by someone whose hamster lost a leg while using the toy and they posted a photo OF THE SEVERED LEG

This image reveals the amount of sugar contained in our favorite drinks: from water and juices to sodas and energy drinks. A clear look that invites us to choose consciously and take care of our health every day.

No, if your auntie had bollocks, given all other elements being equal, she would have been in a homosexual relationship and therefore unable to conceive and you wouldn't have been born

if you saw how many mullets there are in America freely going about their business in public atop their owner's heads you could only conclude it is a failed state

The Overton Window is doing weird things. Trumpists have the most toxic perspectives but some of them are saying 'unalive' instead of 'dead', showing they are at least in part being carried along with the culture of respect and sensitivity.

Weird times...

Why do you need Seal Team 6 to blow up a fucking boat?
This would be an unambiguous war crime even in a proper war against a real enemy’s navy.
Textbook war crime/extrajudicial killing

I'd fucking kick the shit out of one of these if I saw it in the street.
Just as you thought food delivery companies couldn't inflict any more misery on society:

Instead of using lowly-paid gig economy contractors to deliver groceries, they're replacing humans with robots, who, in turn, force humans off the pavement into road traffic.
