  • To be fair, let’s not pretend we haven’t all written JS to resize shit in desperation when the CSS doesn’t work. Though the better way to do this would probably be to listen for the window size change to fire your style changing functions. That makes it behave more like responsive CSS that changes automatically when you resize the window (though with a slight lag sometimes because it’s a lot more computationally expensive). Though it could also be due to the browser putting unused tabs to sleep and stopping JS execution which would be outside the website’s control.





  • IDK about anyone else but I enjoy walking my dog no matter the weather, because the enjoyment comes from seeing my dog happy and playful and not from the walk itself. I feel like if something like this is a deal breaker for you, you’re probably not a dog person to begin with and would indeed be more happy with a cat. No judgement in that case, but the notion that most dog owners hate walking their dog is kind of silly.

    More than anything, I submit that we should just love our own pets instead of trying to make fun of others for theirs. There are advantages and disadvantages to both cats and dogs, and this kind of rhetoric really isn’t helpful to either of them.

    Tangential rant: It’s disgusting how pet supply/vet/insurance companies exploit your love for your pet to gouge you for as much money as possible. Pet food costs more than human food a lot of the time where I live while being made of the cheapest factory floor scraps that they were otherwise going to throw in a dumpster, while they opine about how wholesome their ingredients are and how even you could eat it if you wanted to (which should be the fucking norm for food, humans are also animals and if it’s not safe for us to eat it’s not safe to eat period). Vets have been shown by investigative journalists to routinely order completely unnecessary expensive procedures (that are also extremely stressful for your pet so you’re not doing them any favours) and all but accuse for not loving your pet enough you when you can’t afford it. Pet insurance has insane deductibles/copays and all but the very most expensive tiers do not cover preventative care, checkups, or even vaccines so they’re basically useless for 90% of the vet visits you’ll actually go to and are really only for emergencies/freak accidents (and even then they’ll probably try to deny you coverage like human insurance does). Don’t even get me fucking started on small pets/fish and how inhumane pet stores that sell them are, but just know that they grossly under-report the needs of those pets because they don’t want you to have all the knowledge/resources you need to care for them and would prefer they died in a week so you’d come back and buy another one, you’ll spend less money if the pet is healthy and long lived.

    Yes you would.

    Yes you absolutely fucking would.

    Shut the fuck up corporate social media.

    A marketing post like this is tone deaf as fuck and an insult to our intelligence to even imply you wouldn’t have. I’m so fucking sick of corporations seeing any internet sensation as an opportunity to cash in and make it about them. Fuck you.
