This almost looks like something from the Onion or Babylon Bee. Temporary tattoos are common for kids that age, but a permanent one? Something smells fishy here.

No, but her parents can, and apparently did. It’s not a smart idea but it is legal, and probably on the more acceptable end of the fuckery going on in AZ.

I think the Inker handled it the best he could have. The parents, though… THEY don’t even have an understanding of what’s going on her body, permanently, let alone her. They’ll fit right in. 🙄

Had a salon appointment yesterday and got to hear from my stylist about the “illegal”( who was given a smartphone at the border!) who came in and got a $300 hair coloring; the tenants she couldn’t evict because of COVID, and, naturally, how Mayor Bass cut 23M from the fire department’s budget. She’s a good stylist and is very kind to me (she no doubt thinks I’m of her political persuasion) but yeah, fuck her. While she blathers, I mentally fact check and refute just about everything that comes out of her mouth.

Good one, @Zoobi. And thank you @crowmanyclouds for educating me. I am embarrassed to admit that I’d never known the provenance of that quote and if pressed, I probably would have attributed it to Winston Churchill or somesuch.  
As for doing nothing, if I stood up to all the likeminded fools around here, I’d never have time to do anything else. Besides, she had sharp scissors in her hand.

I once sat in the chair of a MAGA stylist. As she spouted her requisite talking points, I politely explained why her assertions were incorrect.

She ruined my hair. It took 2 1/2 years to grow out. Not the worst thing that could happen, but I’d think twice before piping up again.

Yes, never quibble with the person waving sharp objects around your head.

Remember Alina Habba, the crappy parking-garage lawyer who by all accounts did a terrible job representing Trump? She’s of course still around ( association with Trump spawns these grifter minions), and she had a chance to gush over bad-boy and idol of morons sex trafficker Andrew Tate! Do I hear wedding bells?

The first sentence in that preview is pretty much all you need to read.

Clearly these two deserve each other.

Yeah I can’t really argue with that. In that they are both vile misogynistic rapists.

Why is it that so many Trump supporters want everyone to know that they are Trump supporters?

Trump finally kicked over their rocks and they feel that they can express their racist, bigoted, dumb ass views because the fucking President of the United States shares the same views. They don’t have to keep quiet anymore.

Ye fucking Hah. At least we know who they are.
