Untamed

The Procgen Mansion Generator produces large three-dee dwellings to toy with your imagination, offering various architectural styles and other options. Each mansion even comes with floorplans:

This speech-language pathologist taught her dog 29 words, and he can even form full sentences.

They do understand our words. This is not true of all domesticated animals (horses, for example, can only manage to distinguish a relatively small number of spoken commands…but boy do they know what you’re really saying).

They don’t understand “just your tone of voice” as a lot of people think.

As of 2016 the record vocabulary for a dog demonstrating understanding of words is over 1,000.

So if you give them a way to talk back, they’re going to use it.

The development of language skills is probably a side effect of domestication and of being kept in close contact with humans. A dog that was a better hunting partner would be kept and bred and over time they developed a better understanding of language.

In other words, dogs are pretty dang smart because we need them to understand us.

Check out the owner Christina’s Instagram: one of the first things I saw was a video where the dog started barking and, when prompted by the owner, said “outside, look look look look look look look, come outside.” Which is basically exactly how one would expect a dog to speak. 

The owner described bringing an unknown package into the house, and the dog ran away to push the buttons for “help no no help help” which is also about what I expect goes on in a scared pup’s mind.

In another video, the dog tried to push a button, and the button wasn’t working. The dog paused and then pushed the buttons for “No. Help.” 

In yet another (which the owner seemed impressed by), Stella said “come eat come play.” The owner asked the dog which she wanted to do, to eat or to play? And the dog clarified “come eat.” After eating, then the dog tried to instigate play. So the dog may have been able to understand a short spoken question, and how “questions and answers” work, and also understands sequences, even if she can’t express them (”I want to eat, THEN I want to play”)

Stella can even recount short-term memories, like when her family returned from the beach for dinner and she said “water good, no eat, play”

By the way, the owner uses the buttons as well, which probably really helps reinforce their meaning. She uses them to say things like “Stella all done eat” or “Stella and Christina go outside, bye!”

I guess the joke’s on me.

I’m so tired of seeing people jump all around the spectrum when ranting about artists drawing women with tits.

Like, no Shannon, it is not pedophillic for user xxDrolzabotsArtxx to draw an adult woman with little tits. There are real life woman that have tiny tits and saying they look like a child is not just insulting to the artist, it’s insulting to the women in real life who do have small tits.

Same thing with people getting upset with drawings of women with giant badonkadonk tits and screaming “Ouch her back!” and how it’s sexualization when there are real women with giant triple D tits.

And don’t even get me started on when an artists DARES to make a woman have a small waist and people start asking where her organs are. Like hun, it’s a drawing, they don’t have organs unless you want them there.

All in all, you’re basically telling women who can’t control the size of their honker-donkers that her body is a problem.

As a result, I constantly wear sports bras and loose t-shirts. Even though I’m trying to be more comfortable with how I actually look, since I can’t control it, it is very hard, since the concept of big breasts is overly sexualized.
