-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

That's actually incredible. I wish the dog could give a press conference, I would love to know exactly how this little dog survived.

Noting down this important lore

[–] [email protected] 15 points 6 days ago

need to show this to my old roommate who had a mini dachshund she would spoil the ever-living fuck out of & piss me off in the process. "I'm sorry he pissed in the kitchen 🥺🥺 its raining & he started howling as soon as I took him outside earlier and put him in the grass so I just brought him back in hoping I could take him out when it stopped...What do you mean I am letting him train me???"

used to piss me off so bad because it got to the point where ANY time it rained and you tried to get him to use the bathroom outside, he would go "smuglord it's time to howl until i get brought back inside", even if you put a coat on him and stood over him with an umbrella, simply because it was so effective with his owner. We moved one year and I happened to be watching him during a storm one night. This was usually no big deal - I would leash his ass and, if it was raining hard enough, put his coat on him & would just stand outside in the backyard in the rain ignoring his howling until he went to the bathroom. Well, I get him his coat & leash and grab an umbrella and take him outside to the backyard. He's howling bloody murder as usual while I'm just reading a book on my phone.

Suddenly I hear a "What the HELL are you doing to that dog man?!" and turn around to see our new neighbor staring at me like I'm kicking the dog around. Awkwardly explain that the dog is a little baby when it comes to rain and I know he has to shit because I can see his asshole puckering trying to hold it in & I'm not gonna take him inside until he goes. Neighbor grumpily goes back in and, a few days later, when he sees my roommate taking the dog on a walk - stops her on the sidewalk and tries to tell her he thinks I am abusing her dog. dean-neutral

Anyways all this to say that I think Valerie would dog-walk my old roommate's dachshund.

dachshunds were bred to hunt badgers and ground hole animals. and while this little peanut certainly isn't big enough to do that, i imagine she survived off grubs/bugs and the like?

[–] [email protected] 14 points 6 days ago

She's big enough for rodents, lizards, birds etc
