Rescued for Life ~ All Breed Dog Rescue & Rehabilitation

This dog has a horrific story behind it. My girlfriend rescued it from I-70 a few days ago and we are looking for a very loving home for him. He may have been abused by a male by the way he acts around men and he was definitely traumatized …after his experience on the interstate the other day. All that aside, he is very affectionate, smart, and loving. We think he is American Bulldog, which makes him illegal in Denver. Pit Bulls and sub-breeds of them are banned in Denver City and County because of stupid humans. An American Bull Dog is considered a sub-breed of Pit Bulls. If you know of anyone who would open their heart to taking him in and giving him the love he deserves, let me know! He would require some psych rehab and obedience training. Otherwise he is extremely smart and loving! We think he’s about 2 years old. Because he is so increadibly intelligent and young he might make an excellent working dog for the police or military. If my girlfriend and I turn him over to a shelter, we know he will be euthanized. We contacted shelters and bull dog rescue organizations outside of Denver, and everyone claims to be full. This is really heartbreaking.

Would you all be willing to post this on your individual Facebook pages? My friend and I would consider helping out in figuring out how to transport him wherever he goes! We are paying to get his shots and have him neutered and microchipped next week. Please, please help us find a good home for this beautiful, loving dog.

BTW, we named him Trucker because if it hadn’t been for the quick thinking and reaction of a semi truck driver on I-70 Trucker would have been struck and probably killed.

(Facebook thread)

Please share. This dog needs to get far out of Denver, CO fast.

Elle Woods was hollering back before the movement. This is why i love this movie. It’s so progressive. Elle is a femme feminist who comes by it the hard way. She doesn’t change for the bookish people, the elitists, or for the feminists. She just does what she needs to do, and what she wants, even when at first it was chasing a boy. Then the movie drops the romance. IT DROPS THE ROMANCE. chick flicks don’t do that. Emmett asking her out is a footnote at the very end. And this whole time, she is classy, and lady like, and has pride in herself and her work. She’ll go to a costume party as a playboy bunny, but like hell will she sleep with her professor for an internship. Elle is my feminist role model

Same.

I remember listening to my DAD defend Legally Blonde. An uncle was saying “Oh look, it’s that stupid movie again.” as he flipped through the channels. My dad responded with “Oh yeah, that movie where the blonde girl with great grades works really hard to get into pre-law, studies hard and proves herself to her peers and bosses while maintaining her integrity and not sleeping with her boss? What a terrible message to send girls.”

Also, I love this movie because Reese Witherspoon.

And don’t forget that she has serious female friends and wins the case by way of her specialist knowledge of so-called “feminine things” that no one else takes seriously enough to even bother with.

The movie also passes the Bechdel test.

LET’S NOT FORGET that even though it starts with a situation where two girls are rivals for the same guy, they BOTH choose to ignore the social codes (and hollywood bylaws) that tell them they should be cat-fighting and trying to one-up each other, and instead they realize that they make good working partners and better friends and screw rivalry, AND ALSO HAVE EACH OTHER’S BACKS RE: WORKPLACE SEXUAL HARASSMENT. And that it portrays sororities as places where women can learn to work together and respect each other and help each other out, which sets the stage for the way Elle treats everyone she meets for the rest of the movie. OH AND IT HAS A FAT SIDE CHARACTER WHO OVERCOMES EMOTIONAL ABUSE, IS NEVER FAT-SHAMED OR USED AS THE BRUNT OF A FAT JOKE, AND LANDS THE HOTTEST MAN IN THE ENTIRE FILM.

Also, Elle still stays true to herself in a professional setting. Even when it’s tough for her, she always keeps being her bubbly, peppy self. She doesn’t let what others say about her stop her from being a kickass lawyer that also is unafraid to express herself how she wants to.

Unless you had cancer or something, having survived another year is not really impressive in the West.

My favourite proctor like comes up to me to make sure I’m still using these dumbbells I left out and then asks if my membership expired (probably) and said I might want to make sure, but that he knows I’m a regular, so he’ll keep letting me in until I figure it out.

“[Obama is] just too tied to Wall Street. And at this point he is a war criminal. You can’t meet every Tuesday with a killer list and continually have drones drop bombs. You can do that once or twice and say: ‘I shouldn’t have done that, I’ve got to stop.’ But when you do it month in, month out, year in, year out – that’s a pattern of behaviour. I think there is a chance of a snowball in hell that he will ever be tried, but I think he should be tried and I said the same about George Bush. These are war crimes. We suffer in this age from an indifference toward criminality and a callousness to catastrophe when it comes to poor and working people.”

I don’t care if I’m not letting go of my ego; he needs to come back.

He’s the only one I really like.

Instagram photos of the interesting shit he’s doing aren’t helping my practice.

hipsterlibertarian:

I know I already posted a Daily Show video today, but I couldn’t resist sharing this excellent take-down of Obama’s persistent shifting of responsibility on the Guantanamo Bay issue.

I’ve blogged about this a lot recently, but Stewart highlights something I didn’t know: Congress gave Obama the authority in 2012 to issue case-by-case transfers to the 86 Gitmo inmates already cleared for release.

Know how many times Obama has taken advantage of that authority? Zero.

“But he tried so hard! It was Congress’ fault!”
