Our queen

this reminds of these kids I used to nanny. the eldest (8 at the time) taught me how to play chess with this set. I remember him going over the pieces and stated that Luigi was the queen and he, no joke, said “because he’s the nicest and you have to protect someone like that” that has always stuck in my head whenever I see Luigi now

i know i wouldnt survive in an austen novel because someone would be britishly, discretely rude to me and i would be completely unable to restrain myself from calling them a cunt to their face

my detested rival: why, madam, you look so drawn and pale today! does the small size of your estate not give you enough freedom to take in the sun?

me: listen you waxy, lemon-faced bitch,,

Rich, eccentric, elderly widow Lady peering over at the conversation: That one. That one shall be my heir.

Alright, who can tell me the three most blatantly obviously false things about this story (The fact that it’s on the Dodo should tell you how full of wrong it is all on its own):

“This tiny piglet was rescued from the freeway. It’s thought that she fell from an animal transport truck, possibly on its way to the slaughterhouse.”

1- This piglet is probably only a week old. NO ONE is sending piglets that young on transport to become food.

2- This is not a meat breed piglet. The brachycephalic nature of it’s face as seen in this photo plus the coloring suggest it is likely a potbelly or similar breed.

3- There is absolutely no fucking way this thing survived falling off a truck moving at freeway speeds. This is a common theme to every single “jumped off the slaughter transport” story- the animal has never broken a leg, suffered severe road rash or experienced internal hemorrhage in these stories.

4- I’m extremely suspicious over the idea that this piglet was just running around on a freeway without being turned into a pancake.

ugh. I watched the video. “She was probably born on the truck and fell off as she was only a couple days old” - No. She would have died, especially in australia, without being able to nurse for several days. She would have died simply falling off the truck. And considering her size in the ‘6 month birthday’- definitely a potbelly pig.

Piglets that are raised on pasture/outdoors are very well known for escaping through any small gap so there was probably a farm near that freeway raising pigs and she got out.

These kind of stories annoy me since they are so made up. The original article also asks for money for her upkeep too
