I am sorry about your FIL and the generally crappy day, jessica.
I love the TIGERPIGS, but I heard it was just a set-up for the pictures, not true interspecies love. Whatever, still super cute. After watching this: [link] I am determined to have a piglet. They are so pink! And sometimes polka dotted~!

I heard the tigerprint jackets were just for the pics, but that the piglets really were "adopted" by the mama tiger.

Thrive to spite them
Real pictures, inaccurate description according to Snopes
So the tiger and pigs are/were in the Srircha Tiger Zoo in Thailand and the zoo does "carnival" or "circus" like exhibits, including ones like this. The piglets aren't there to comfort the tiger, just to be interesting (I guess). According to the article Snopes quoted there was another exhibit with a pig suckling a tiger cub.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I think the tigerpigs are setup for a pork dinner, but whatevs.
I do loves me some jujitsu, even if I do end up feeling vaguely guilty for it. And sometimes I use krav and then hugs to get what I want, and feel *really* bad. But mostly I want what I want. Because I'm *right*, dammit.
Oh, Jessica, can I tell you a joke to make you feel better? 100% guaranteed to fix everything, or your money back:
Q: How many art directors does it take to change a light bulb?
A: Does it have to be a light bulb?
Q: How many copyeditors does it take to change a light bulb?
A: The last time this question was asked it involved art directors. Is the difference intentional? Should one or the other instance be changed? It seems inconsistent.

Oh god it's funny because it's depressingly true!
[eta: ita's jokes, not the tigerpigs. Those are funny because they're tigerpigs.]

How many programmers does it take to change a light bulb?
It can't be done. It's a hardware problem.
