I agree that expecting to never see a dog in public isn't realistic. People have pets, they walk them, and we all share public spaces.

But somewhere along the way, "dog-friendly" started creeping into places where it simply doesn't belong.

I'm talking about grocery stores, indoor restaurants, bars serving food, cafés, bakeries, and other places where food safety and sanitation should come first. Unless it's a legitimate service animal, dogs don't belong where food is prepared or sold.

But why are we normalizing dogs sniffing produce displays, sitting in shopping carts, or wandering through grocery aisles?

I'm not asking for a dog-free world. I'm asking that boundaries still exist.

When did "I love my dog" become "everyone else has to accommodate my dog, everywhere I go"?

That doesn't seem unreasonable to me and it's infuriating

I am all for trauma-informed practices, but my god when that LEADS EVERYTHING, it's exhausting. It cannot be a blanket idea. It cannot be at the forefront of every lesson and curriculum at the cost of rigorous, honest instruction.

Not every child is traumatized! Not every child needs an IEP, separate space, fidgets, breaks, reminders taped to their desk, different chairs, and A's on unfinished work. I could go on.

For those in the back, NOT EVERY CHILD IS TRAUMATIZED!

I find it so gross and trashy (even for 90 day) that Mallorie decides to talk very explicitly about glory holes, then very explicitly about poop (even so far as to discuss dingle berries), then talk about the Lord's Chicken. All while dressed like Adam Sandler. And then the MERICA friend?!? With the WW champions bit?

It's bad, guys. No?

Anybody else always cold since starting? I'm on the 9mg pill with almost no results for 3 months (5 lbs). But I'm always always cold. I thought it might be because of the weight loss, but it's going so slowly that can't be it .

All to say, anyone else notice being always cold?
