Madagascar, maybe?

Or that one island that just hates EVERYONE?
𝕊𝕡𝕒𝕔𝕖 𝔸𝕔𝕖
tbf that island hasn't been touched by modern civilization and has every right to hate it.
Bat Matt
oh, I absolutely agree with their policy
Bat Matt
given the things that have, in history, happened to indigenous peoples.
little prince
And the Sentinelese had that happen to them iirc
little prince
That’s why they are so hostile to any attempts at contact.
little prince
If I’m remembering correctly, some young people were kidnapped from that island and brutalized and that’s why they cut off all contact with the outside world. Can’t exactly blame ‘em.

Dermatologists say Marines' tightened shaving waiver could hurt Black members' careers
Marines and airmen with pseudofolliculitis barbae, the skin condition more commonly known as razor bumps, could be expelled from the service if the condition persists.
little prince
People whose face and body hair tend to be kinky or more coarse are more prone to experiencing this condition because of how their hair follicles work. So it’s another form of targeted discrimination based on hair type.
Exacerangutan
ah yes, smooth silky skin, a famous requirement of being a marine

The excuse for the facial hair thing in the past has been gas mask seals not working with beards.
StupidSexyV⚠der
And that's true.But also, there is a difference between having a full on beard and having a little bit of stubble, from not shaving every day or multiple times a day
Platinum
Yup.
Platinum
Like I said, it's an excuse.

President praised his administration’s efforts to end DEI programs and crack down on immigration while addressing West Point’s Class of 2025
big bad wolb
i think he thinks al capone was a guy from movies
little prince
I think he knows Al Capone was real...but he thinks that knowing the dude’s full name was Alphonse is some sort of flex that proves his intellectual prowess.
Bat Matt
someone really needs to grow a fucking backbone and impeach this fucker. -_-
Platinum
"Not many people know that name, Alphonse. Such a name. More people should. Alphonse Capone, a name of respect and power."
Bat Matt
of course he idolizes one of the biggest criminals in US history.
big bad wolb
idk what he means, every weeb worth their salt knows the name alphonse /j
little prince
Lmao
little prince
Tbh I learned his first name was actually Alphonse while watching Boardwalk Empire. And my first thought was “oh, like in FMA.”
Bat Matt
see, my kneejerk response was more local - there's a guy named Alphonse in here, and he is a gigantic asshole who tries to hit the nurses and slings around death threats.
Bat Matt
and it's not a case of mental decline, he knows exactly what he's doing.
