I certainly understand people not agreeing, but I have been shocked by some of the vitriol this simple photograph has drawn forth from some commenters. I am going to close comments, because life is hard enough for the Tippetts family now without having to read such harsh judgment visited on them for smiling through the pain.
Rod, why not just get out of the cozy corner bunker from time to time and ask normal people, those different from you, how these things are generally regarded in their lives? Think of it even as a possible icebreaker with your estranged family.What could it hurt to begin to consider treating people as human beings with legitimate feelings and sensibilities of their own rather than only as sensational blog product to make a buck from?
And so, with his anticipated expansion into visually arousing death porn having proved problematic, Rod quickly returns to his old standby, visually arousing food porn. His quick, palate-cleansing follow up to the the visually arousing image of an unusually grieving family? A visually arousing picture of some dead pig:

And then he goes after kindred special snowflakes.

I wonder if anyone is going to compare women heading to their fainting couches with special snowflakes who head to bed midday due to their "sensitivities".
I don't even know why he's in such a lather about that one. He seems to have decided that it has something to do with microaggressions and women being insane about sex or something, like usual, but the tweet doesn't say anything about that so it's all just him assuming. And yet, on the basis of that assumption, both he and his commentators have decided that it's the end of the world, because Puritans have made women hysterical. Alrighty!
