lmao it starts "An anonymous mother has confided on the parenting platform Mumsnet that she is “devastated” by her 26-year-old daughter’s tattoos." literally crying right now about her full chest piece of the word 'gender' surrounded by scary middlesbrough outbuildings e: Now he's getting a tattoo yeah, he's getting ink done He asked for a 13, but they drew an existential crisis of humanity in the post-religious world Guavanaut fucked around with this message at 17:42 on Feb 8, 2022 |

OwlFancier posted:I had not seen it and could have gone my whole day without being reminded that melanie phillips exists, but as I have been I guess it isn't surprising that she is entirely unaware or uncaring that a century ago tattoos were high fashion. Women were having permanent makeup tattoos all through WW2, both saving money on very scarce cosmetics and also of course saving themselves time and hassle between 12-hour factory shifts and keeping house. The fashion stayed on through the 50s and quite deep into the 60s, it was really only in the 60s that they stopped getting them, not least because it was seen as an old-lady thing to do at that point.

You could really replace the entirety of the right wing commentariat with a robot that just repeats "if you don't like it then it must be a new sin against the natural order of the universe"

When it comes to bodies, right wingers do tend to have an obsession with purity which leans less on historicity and more on their own attitudes to tradition and body autonomy. Tattoos are, and have always been, cool.

I mean I tend to agree honestly that I don't think I have ever seen someone I thought looked better with tattoos and wouldn't see the point in getting one, but it doesn't have to be the collapse of western civilization that people do. It's just aesthetics and it has basically zero impact on everyone else whether or not you get one.

I'm waiting for them to also bring up how Starmer was head of the DPP when it was decided to let John Worboys (who raped Carrie Johnson) avoid further charges. They're probably keeping that one in the back pocket for the next election... but then I thought that about the Savile thing. Turns out there just needed to be a sufficiently large crisis for such a big dead cat I guess.

He's the guy that's overwhelmed with pride at going to the big boys meeting, when he's only really there so his boss doesn't have to carry the lever arch files.

When he puts the gun down but it won't stop anyway. Still gives me chills.

'The next Maddie!' the papers thought, with wall to wall coverage, and once it turned out it was the mother, probably dampened going full in on the next one.
