SWEET JESUS!
*turns phone upsidedown*
I recently got to experience this glorious moment, and I feel this is the appropriate post to share it in.
As did I a couple years ago, I had to pull over and send it to the wife.
…i, too, had to text-message my coworker…
Ive got a spare tube of Armor All wipes you can have…
Sweet baby Jesus!

In all the years I’ve had this car, I never even noticed that. Thank you, I’ll never be able to unsee it now!
You hit 80,000 miles in what appears to be a ~20 year old GM (my '03 S10 has a similar gauge cluster with the same odometer/gear display) “a couple years ago?”
Edit: Yeah that’s the instrument cluster from an '00 to '05 Chevrolet Impala.
It’s an '05 Monte Carlo, but damn good call!
It was my grandfather’s car for much of its life. He only ever really drove it like a mile at a time before he was no longer able to drive. When he passed away a few years ago, I got it. For being a car that survived Sandy and sitting in several feet of salt water, it has held up astoundingly well. At the time, all it needed was an electrical harness replacement. Since I got it, other than tires, brakes, and routine maintenance since, I’ve only just had to replace the exhaust line last year. It’s been a damn good car, and I plan to keep it as long as I can!
I’ve got an '05 Buick Century with a similar story that just crossed 120,000 miles, and it’s had a shockingly easy life. I put most of the miles on after my grandmother passed.
The similarity to my S10’s gauge cluster, and the fact that there hasn’t been an S10 with mileage that low since Obama took office, is what got my attention. I haven’t seen that odometer display without the top digit lit in 15 years.
It couldn’t have been just a touch warmer, could it?
Niice.
I just looked and I’ve got 593kms until I clock over to 80085.
I will try not to miss it, but there is a solid chance I’ll look at 80086.
Why even lock it if the code is on the door?
To keep people from accidentally walking in?
You won’t mistake it for a closet if you have to enter a code to get in.
“Sorry, I didn’t know this room was in use! I typed 8008 on the keypad because it spells boob. I like boobs…”
Probably no way of leaving it unlocked, and a sign can be taken down
I’ve seen these before, I can confirm it’s real
but, are you real?
Negative, I am a meat popsicle

Pumping room? You mean the closet with the free yummy milk?
Don’t pump too hard or you might just end up 55378008.
😂
I imagine the person trying to decide whether to use 8008 OR spell it on the keypad with corresponding letters like the meme with the guy choosing between two red buttons.
spell it on the keypad with corresponding letters
something something fuck you united states
I caught your reference OP.
What’s the reference?
It’s nice that mothers have a place like this, it’s horrible that they are needed.
Conservatives and religion made this a necessity that mothers have to hide when feeding their children naturally.
[edit - ok I was ignorant and didn’t know these are a refuge not a curse. Lots of manthinking happened here … ]
It’s also possible that some women simply want privacy and a calm, quiet environment to feed their baby, or pump breast milk.
Yeah as a dumb ass man I didn’t even consider that.
That was a noble shift in opinion.
As a fellow dumb ass man, I understand completely
Also, maybe things like a table, a mirrors, plugs, a microwave, etc. Doing this at your office desk isn’t exactly convenient.
These rooms are more than just a door. They have tables, microwaves, mirrors, outlets and a number of other things that make feeding and pumping easier.
Also, even in pretty progressive places, a lot of people just want some alone time and a dedicated place to deal with a kid or a clunky pump.
I didn’t know that. Thank you.
Sometimes they are like that.
Sometimes they are a closet with a dirty diaper can that isn’t emptied frequently. Delightful.
Yeah, shitty places in the US do the bare minimum that the law requires. A door, a sink, and a chair.
As someone who is not familiar with breast milk pumping… what is the microwave for?
Sterilizing equipment, heating a bottle, or just heating up lunch so you can kill two birds with one stone.
I have galactorrhea, pumping rooms aren’t a natural maternal family matter, for me, it’s a medical procedure.
Privacy is a lactating person’s choice, and right. public feeding is a choice that I agree needs to be destigmatised. Personally I’m not comfortable with public pumping, because I see my breast milk as medical not nutritional, so I choose privacy for myself.
It’s also difficult, it’s stressful, it’s uncomfortable. Having comfort, focus, peace and quiet, it’s important.
I don’t even have a uterus, so getting my leaky chest out in public is even further from being socially acceptable. I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve had mastitis because I have not been able to expell in a timely manner. Partly that was because I was embarrassed by my condition and didn’t stand up for myself and my need for access to a pumping room at work, and part of it was because my employers didn’t understand my need for a private room, they pointed out that it’s never been a problem for mothers in our office to whip a tit out when baby was hungry, and/or that my need was different because the reason I I had breast milk at all was different.
No one gets to expect me to be comfortable with nudity. My breast milk, my choice if I have privacy or not.
I used to do it in the bathroom because I didn’t have anywhere else, but that was a gamble, do I let myself get an infection because I’m letting my ducts clog, or do I risk an infection by pumping milk in the toilets.
First sentence: wow I absolutely agree. It’s such a shame that mothers have to go back to work so soon after giving birth. We should work toward guaranteeing parental time off for all parents.
Second sentence: yeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaah… Um… Nevermind.
Do you think? Whether conservative or religious, a lot of it comes down to sexualizing every aspect of a woman’s body, arguing that simply existing as a woman is too much for men to handle, and since men can’t be trusted to control themselves, it falls on the woman to hide her body from the men.
We’re literally a hop skip and a jump to fucking burqas in Christianity, yet it’s far from just the religious conservatives who take part in this (image screamingly relevant).
Holy shit, you said the word woman
Cartoon noises start playing
I think without the literal centuries of religious oppression a lot of these problems wouldn’t exist in the 1st place.
Imagine a world where clothing is optional, where a man could kiss another man without any fear, where we weren’t scolded CONSTANTLY for natural feelings, natural habits, natural desires …
Sure predation would still exist, after all we’re just animals, but I don’t believe that we would have the problems at the same magnitudes that we do today.
No, men bad! Must continue to fail to analyze society because men horny and men fault!
Horny men? Where? WHERE?!
Well overwhelmingly men were and still are in control of some of the largest
oppression machinesreligions in the world.So even though I uNdErStaNd your reply, you’re still correct.
No, it’s actually wrong and I was sarcastic. Just because a lot of the world is geared behind a patriarchy does not mean it’s suddenly OK to scapegoat the complexities of basic sexual attraction on to one gender.
“It’s more than the religious that take part in this” does NOT magically mean the social norms were not established by conservative fuckwits who were almost certainly heavily religious in order to protect themselves and keep their position in a patriarchy.
Conservative religions absolutely deserve most of the blame, regardless of which gender sat at the top.
Where do you think the general fetishization comes from? Cultures that demonize the existence of breasts and shapely asses.
What cultures demonize breasts? Conservative religions.
In cultures that do not promote shame over basic sexual attraction, nudity is no big deal. You’re trying to put the cart before the horse, which is just… really, really stupid logic.
