@jamesdolly234@zuki_2024 The country he got it in was one of like four in all of Europe where it's even legal, and they've made it illegal since.
"Whoopsie."
@mtracey Guy in DEP with me had "FUCK" tattooed on top of one foot and "SHOES" on other. Navy personnel command debated, decided that was unacceptable and refused to give him a waiver. He had it altered to say "BUCK" instead, which after more deliberation they finally determined was okay.
@mtracey Michael, everyone in the military IS required to do EXACTLY what you're suggesting. You have to declare/show all your tattoos when you join, and they're scrutinized for extremist symbology. If you plan new tattoos while in, you need to submit a description and get their approval.
@YeOldeWordSmyth Particularly funny because he's describing a thing that exists. If you want a tattoo in the military you need a permission slip (request form NAVMC 10274 for my branch, others have their own equivalents) informing command of the planned design, and they get final yes/no approval.
@0wl_helper@JoelWebbon@captive_dreamer hopping on the bus is fine, even if you're way late there's always more room, we'll find you a seat in the back
fighting for control of the steering wheel when you just got on at the last stop is not acceptable behavior
@0wl_helper@JoelWebbon@captive_dreamer The problem is people who
1) just came around to our view yesterday, indicating they either have profoundly bad judgment, were not paying attention, or are a libtard desiring to go back to yesterday's status quo
and
2) immediately try to position themselves as movement leaders
@Fredward_Frex@nascarmixing@ChristianHeiens You are asking for other people to take a leap you're not willing to make.
Obviously your idea of "fixing the healthcare system" would be similarly unworkably retarded, but it doesn't matter, because it's not even a priority for you! Buttsex is more important!
@Fredward_Frex@nascarmixing@ChristianHeiens Here's what you - perhaps willfully, or perhaps due to being a huge retard - are failing to grasp: we BOTH think this is more important than "fixing the healthcare system". Otherwise, one of us would be willing to compromise on this tiny trivial thing that hardly even matters.
@nascarmixing@ChristianHeiens "It's just a distraction for you. For us, of course, it's life-or-death, so naturally we can't compromise on it even a little bit. But you should let us win, because it's not a big deal for you."
Yeah I don't think so.
@upstatefederlst My back-of-napkin math for the odds of firing into a representative crowd of American adults and hitting three people who all happened to be felons was roughly 0.05% or 1 in 2000.
(This figure is very conservative because it assumes no felons are currently incarcerated.)
@nascarmixing@ChristianHeiens You seem to be under the misapprehension that I am trying to have a dialogue with you or convince you of something. I am making fun of you for being a retard with a transparently obvious agenda.
@nascarmixing@ChristianHeiens Again, YOU are the one saying "this culture war stuff is just a distraction from the real issues" and asking for compromise. I asked what compromises YOU were willing to make, and your answer (as expected) was... nothing, and calling me immoral for asking.
Profoundly unserious.
@NigBaby69 People who spent the last 2 years breathlessly posting about "diddy blud" and "the epstein class", when a literal diddy blud epstein class guy astroturfed into their social media feeds is mildly funny:

Yeah I don't think so.
The Minnesota child care fraud saga is so strange because years ago it was fully investigated, documented, and reported on by a team of state investigators set up to catch and stop child care fraud.
They spent years gathering evidence including many hours of surveillance footage. In 2018 they compiled a detailed report and delivered it to their boss, the DHS Inspector General.
Directly from the report: "Investigators, as well as the Supervisor and Manager of this unit believe that the overall fraud rate in this program is at least 50% of the $217M paid to child care centers in CY2017."
What did the Inspector General do with this information? She refused to meet with her own team, refused to discuss the findings of the report, and then spent $90,000 of taxpayer money to have an outside company write a report saying the fraud isn't quite as bad as her own team of investigators was claiming.
Here's an email summarizing the fraud that the lead investigator sent the IG in 2018. Those currently in the MSM claiming that child care fraud isn't a serious problem should read this.
The real question is how highly paid state investigators spent years investigating child care fraud in MN, reported on said fraud, and eight years later not only was the fraud not stopped, it was bigger than ever.
