    Unfortunate news...

    Hey y'all! It's been a while since I logged in here. Life has thrown me and my family a curveball for the first 4 months of 2024. As the title suggests, I regret to inform my friends and followers here that my mom passed away on April 9, 2024 at the age of 65 due to stage 4 non-smoker lung cancer. I'm going to tell you what happened to her in another blog.

    Panini is a creep

    Panini having the audacity to tell Chowder he's the clingy one is a form of gaslighting. She's the one who's clingy and obsessed with him and constantly stalks and harasses him. She doesn't get Chowder's "I'm not your boyfriend" message into her thick skull.

    A particular instance of a white actor voicing an Asian character

    I can imagine the outrage on the Internet if Jeff Bennett providing the voice of Raj in Camp Lazlo exists in today's time.

    People would call him a racist for using an Indian accent for the character yet he's not of Indian descent.

    I created a new account. The username is anthrofanthe2nd. The display name is Anthro F. II. My profile pic is blue northern lights.

    I don't want to use Discord anymore

    The whole debacle that occurred last night left me absolutely traumatized. I ended up crying and sulking because that motherfucker put me through shit and the other motherfucker threatened to call the police on me for something I didn't do. This was the first time I've ever experienced this on the site. The hacker who has stolen my account is going after my friends to victimize and/or scam them

Though, in the case of the Potato Heads, only the overall name of the brand is changing. The characters of Mr and Mrs Potato Head will remain.

Hasbro did it to promote gender equality and inclusion. Yet, a lot of people aren't happy with the change.

Some people can't handle change, it seems.

Didn't the family of Aunt Jermima get paid royalties though?

I'm not saying the origins were right, bit at the same time as soon as civil rights was achieved everyone forgot, almost. Most didn't think race until it was brought up.

Might as well change the cream of wheat box if they haven't already.

If not saying racism and discrimination is good, but at the same time it's only brought up when people bring it up.


I don't think if any natives was offended by the Washington Redskins feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

To me the brands are just brands now, you can learn the history, but it doesn't mean that's how people see it today and it doesn't glorify the past.

As with Mr. Potato Head, I'm on the fence to me it didn't need a rebrand because it was already inclusive.

But that's just me.

Here's what the family had to say regarding the royalties.

Various people and groups such as National Congress of American Indians considered "redskins" a racial slur while supporters countered both the dictionary definition of the term and the testimony of Native Americans by asserting that their use of the name was intended respectfully, and referred only to the football team and its history.

I stand corrected.

Name change is one of the easiest tasks. Very easy to change the brand name of your product and see the results in sales. Not so easy if you want to change the name of sports team and see the same results in sales but it's possible. Here you can get 토토메이저 the latest information about the games. But still really hard when you want to change the name of toy, which is also very popular around world as well as known by kids. That's why I came up with some links that can help you find good domain name or keyword for your products or services. Good luck.
