| As much as I am sympathetic that you have a fear a genuine service dog allows people to do things that would otherwise be impossible. I don’t agree with the way some people claim their dogs are service dogs but as a person who massively prefers animals to people I am surprised but also sympathetic t... |

I wondered how many people have dogs ... |

As the weather gets dimmer and summer goes away people are, once again beginning to blatantly stare at me. I understand that many people thought they were sunglasses and perhaps wonder why I... |

I have medical conditions and physical issues due to dyspraxia, however, I am not 'disabled enough' to require a service dog for any of these. I ... |

I found out by accident when trying on different coloured sunglasses in a shop, I put on the blue ones and they made a dramatic change to how I saw everything. It was as if the light to dark ratio had been changed and I was seeing things in a 'normal' light. |

| Hi everyone, I was wondering if there is anyone who wears coloured lenses in their glasses, or coloured lenses without other sight issues. Around two years ago I discovered that it made an enormous difference for me to wear blue sunglasses. I feel they make my depth perception and such a huge amount... |

I also disliked Bella in the twilight series, I felt the secondary characters were more enjoyable and realistic. I also dislike Scarlett witch, I think this is because she became the favou... |

| I personally, am not bad at telling what other people feel, my problems are with what I feel. I personally don't think Hermione's ability to be social discounts her from being autistic. |

My least favorites are probably some of the stereotypes, such as the villain Whiplash in Iron Man two. I agree that Frigga was done badly, a... |
