obsolete to you

No one ever said being a parent was easy.

But the day they brought her home, it didn’t matter that it would be hard. On the ride home, Clint kept cooing over his newborn daughter—she was so beautiful, but Nat, were babies supposed to look like this? And Nat, she looks so little… and… squishy! Natasha was, of course, basically falling asleep in the car, so all he really got were vague mumbles. When they got home, she immediately collapsed into bed, while he settled onto the settee at the foot of it, holding his baby girl.

“Nat. Nat. It really is squishy!”

“Stop squishing our daughter, Hawkbutt.”

“But- but looook!”

“No. Bad.”

“So my amazing daughter, Emma, turned 5 last month, and I had been searching everywhere for new-creative inspiration for her 5yr pictures. I noticed quite a pattern of so many young girls dressing up as beautiful Disney Princesses, no matter where I looked 95% of the “ideas” were the “How to’s” of how to dress your little girl like a Disney Princess…We chose 5 women (five amazing and strong women), as it was her 5th birthday but there are thousands of unbelievable women (and girls) who have beat the odds and fought (and still fight) for their equal rights all over the world”

This is awesome!

just a friendly reminder that for over a hundred years, pit bulls used to be referred to as “the nanny dog” and their main job was as babysitters.

in temperance tests (the equivalent of how many times your kid can poke your dog in the eye before it bites him) of all breeds the most tolerant was the golden retriever. the second most tolerant was the pit bull. temperament evaluations by the american temperament test society give american pit bull terriers a very high passing rate of 82.6%, while the average passing rate for the other 121 dog breeds tested was only 77%.

pit bulls are not naturally human aggressive. in fact pit bull puppies prefer human company to their mother’s two weeks before all other dogs.

no spayed/neutered, indoor pit bull has ever killed a person.

contrary to the popular myth, pit bulls DO NOT have locking jaws.

approximately 6000 pit bulls are put to death every day, by far the highest number of any breed euthanized.
