card carrying union card carrier
A few years ago I made this card for Ryan, a special member of the #UglyDogs family (his faves were Flame and Refried [RIP]) w/ Bler’s permission to use her pics, and thought maybe some of y’all would like to see?

Is there a word that encapsulates the joy you feel when you witness your most beloved being adored and cherished by others? It is my favorite feeling.

Every single woman you know has had this happen to her. Even the goddamn president of Mexico.
Brava: “If I don’t file a complaint, then what message does that send to all Mexican women?” Ms. Sheinbaum said at her daily news conference, noting sexual harassment was a crime… “If this can happen to the president, what’s going to happen to all the young women & women across our country?”
