Good man. We all make mistakes, some more serious than others. But this man did his time and paid his dues. He deserves a fresh start.
They definitely have feelings and can read ours too! Reminds me of this one time I was having a heated argument with my parents, involving screaming back and forth. There was a coffee table in between us. My cat who was sleeping in a different room walked in, got on the coffee table and started crying/screaming loudly while looking at me. She’s never been that loud and she definitely has never done something like that before. Her screams were so effective that we actually stopped arguing and ended up totally distracted discussing her unusual behaviour. I’m not sure if she was “saving” me thinking I was in trouble or saving my parents but it sure did work!
I honestly believe most children need a pet. It teaches them so much, and not just about things like responsibility, but about unconditional love.
Well said. It’s amazing how a little change can have a big impact.

Me too! That's why I prefer colored plasters or ones with Mickey Mouse, Pokémon, etc.
Load More Replies...And sometime ago Crayola stopped calling a crayon color "flesh." I think they just call it beige now. Frankly, I never met anyone of any skin color who matched that crayon.
Crayola renamed it "peach" in 1962 but other brands continued to use "flesh" for decades longer. Prisacolor didn't change it until 1987.

Took a minute for me to locate the bandaid. It blended in so well with your skin tone!
It's a 2019 twitter post. Who the heck are you talking to?
Load More Replies...I have always wondered why they had just that putrid beige color. They now have 3 darker colors so they match real people better.
I've seen this meme before, and there were many people in the comments that just ... didn't get it. They went off about standard-color band-aids not matching white peoples' skin, so what's the big deal. —— When I saw this meme reappear here, I thought to myself, "Hey, I wonder if people are starting to get it now, and maybe they won't — uhhhh, nope, some of them still don't get it."
It's about time some one had a thought and acted on it. I saw the skin-toned bandaids in Walmart and thought, what took them so long to do this?
I love this as I've seen it before! Yes it matters as to what skin tone a plaster or huge plasters are/is... Because? If you've a huge medical plaster on your arm, for example, where you cannot hide it and everyone sees it? It can be embarrassing, people don't always want to have to be put in the position of being asked horrible questions about - "What happened?"... It's none of your business, is what happened 👍🙂
Look, I love that there are now a wider variety of matching skin-tone band-aids. But if you've got a huge bandage on your arm, and it's not covered by your clothing, it doesn't matter what color it is, or how well it matches your skin tone. People are going to see it and ask questions.

Wakanda Forever, and GNU Chadwick. A man is never truly dead so long as his name is spoken.
Not to sound morbid, but I hope I just seize up one day while I still have my wits, freedom, and mobility.
When i had a Dane we got a wee hound pupper. Loki would carry it around in his mouth. I never thought i'd have to learn the command, "Loki, spit the puppy out!"
So many duplicate stories, even one triplicate! Still stamping BP logo on the unknowing "contributions" of other posters I see...
I've actually not seen a few of these on BP before - you guys are doing great work considering that you are now trying to charge people for this. And the duplicates at the end? Just another reason I would LOVE to pay for an account on BP.
There is a line from a country song: "if all you go by is the evening news, your faith in all mankind would be the first thing you lose." Daily we are bombarded by bad news, acts of extreme violence; growth in the rate of poverty, etc. We are told our country (USA) is hopeless divided and hate is on the rise. I've spent over 30 years working with victims of abuse and trauma. I long, long ago removed my rose-colored glasses. Yet, I still believe most people are good and that given the opportunity, most of us will react with kindness and fairness. Seeing the good and not always the bad can empower all of us to act from a place of love and acceptance.
If only there were new pieces of good. This makes it seem like we have only 50 good things to recycle for years.
Load More Replies...Most of these are so old - too old. I know some people may not have seen them before but most of us have, many times.
I had to stop reading these were all so old. Bored panda has access to an entire internet and all they can do is recycle their same old material?
To those complaints about duplicate BP posts? I've not seen this one before and please keep in mind that new members join all the time so they probably have never seen them either.
