‘Pig Is Very Sensitive’: Amazon Driver Instructed That Ignoring Pig Will Result in Her Being ‘Self-Conscious and Depressed’
Everybody knows that delivery drivers have to put up with a lot, including particularly demanding customer requests. In the case of one Amazon driver, though, the customer request was simple: Say hello to my pig.

Everybody knows that delivery drivers have to put up with a lot, including particularly demanding customer requests. In the case of one Amazon driver, though, the customer request was simple: Say hello to my pig.
Posting to Reddit, someone shared a set of incredibly unique delivery instructions. The instructions read, “Pig is very sensitive. Walking by her completely ignoring her will result in her feeling self-conscious, and becoming depressed for several hours. It will be highly appreciated that if you don’t pet her or scratch her back, that you say hi to her. Thanks!” This pig is relatable.
Commenters were in agreement that this was an excellent request, and one that would be likely to make their day on the job that much brighter. One wrote, “Honestly out of all the **** I dealt with on a daily basis working for them, whenever I got a customer instruction like this it literally made my day so much better.”
Others agreed that pigs are definitely capable of that level of emotional intelligence, with another commenter opining, “Pigs are the best pets. Super intelligent and can get rid of a body.”
Hold up. Let me not ask questions I’m not ready to hear the answers to.
That said, a few doubted there was a pig at all. One woman wrote, “I told my husband that wasn’t funny. A simple wave. It’s all I asked,” while someone else, operating on a similar wavelength, joked, “I think it is terrible the way this guy talks about his wife.”
Unfortunately, no follow-up has been posted with a photo of the pig or confirmation of its existence, so we’ll just have to take this one on faith and hope that somewhere out there is a pet pig with crippling self-esteem issues demanding attention from unsuspecting delivery drivers.
Supreme's Creative Director Quits After Being Told He Can't Sell a T-Shirt With Pictures of Slaves

After being the creative director of the streetwear brand Supreme for two fashion seasons, Tremaine Emory has decided to leave. He recently posted on Instagram that he left the brand known to be worn by white skaters for “systemic racism issues.”
In the posts (that started with a “White Fragily” book ad as a preamble), Emory describes the cancellation of a controversial collab between the brand and artist Arthur Jafa as one of the driving forces.
Arthur Jafa is a Black artist and filmmaker who is known to center Black resilience and power in his work. One sculpture that was a part of his “Live Evil” exhibition mimicked the famous photo of a free slave with lashing marks on his back.
like no disrespect to arthur jafa and tremaine but if “systemic racial issues” prevented people from walking around downtown with this on a t-shirt, we gotta call it a win pic.twitter.com/FnC0vG2aCp

Allegedly, the collab was quietly canceled after one of the few black designers for Supreme expressed distaste over using lynch and slave imagery on apparel. Emory in his post felt undermined since he was the creative director.
“I told I was racially charged, emotional, and using the wrong forum by [bringing] up systemic racism in a meeting when I was asked if we should work with a black female artist whilst this Jafa project was secretly shutdown without anyone talking to me,” Emory states.

Supreme: We don’t think it’s in good taste for us to sell shirts depicting enslaved Black people being lynched

Tremaine: they racist y’all https://t.co/669905OenA
Supreme has refuted Emory’s claim saying that the Jafa collab was not cancelled. So if you were dying for an XL T-shirt with a photo on the back depicting the gruesome reality of American enslavement, don’t worry it may be hitting Supreme stores for hundreds of white suburban teen boys to wait 12 hours in line for.
the idea of a bunch of white kids lining up to buy a t-shirt with the image of a black man being hung is kind of crazy tbh https://t.co/cnT3kpzEkk

“Well, I am ten toes on Supreme’s side because what do you mean you wanted to sell lynching t-shirts,” posted @jasebyjason on Twitter.
See, everyone is down to rage over a racist fashion brand (of which there are many) but as soon as you say “They didn’t want to put pictures of slaves on t-shirts”, you’re gonna lose some people.
Anyway, keep your eyes peeled on Grailed.
