It keeps the naturally predated-upon Sushi safe from the, although diminutive, aggressive Wasabi who’s, known for a solitary nature when in the wild.

…can we talk about Kidneyfoot Jenny, or do you think they were just trying to differentiate between her and Mexican Jennie?

Why is it that if he’s a dumb young 20 he can’t gain any intelligence? Why is the line I keep seeing from people “well he didn’t know at the time, and that’s damning enough”, like, do you know anyone who has ever signed up for the military at 18-25 to bd ‘smart’ or informed?

Thank you for this. I gave it a good (confusing) read, they could stand to type in less capitals.

I can see the regulations outlined, but not that he was turned away for it being a known nazi symbol or anything based on that description, it sounds like he got a tattoo without clearing it or reporting it on his paperwork and chose not to appeal, based on his words there in the reddit post.

I appreciate you finding that for me, it was hard to parse all the google garbage

Thanks anyway! Yeah military jargon and acronyms out the ass go hand in hand and any manager that’s a vet I’ve worked for just tosses them around like ‘sentence enhancers’.

If you know about MARADMIN, can you elaborate on what he means? I looked it up and understand it as a kind of code of conduct, but don’t see what changed in 2007, just that he said a USMC based tattoo was what prevented him.

Can you give a source on that or a general direction on where to look? I’ve heard about the tattoo and looked into it during the initial controversy and did not find that information at the time.

I disagree.

Low millions, like your net worth in your 60s when you own a home, potentially two cars, and a retirement fund. 1-4 million? Sure, not rich, well off by most standards.

Closing in on thay double digit millions? Yeah you’re rich. Hell, in most of the US, having a net worth of 7 million dollars is the ‘eccentric millionaire’ level for most of rural America.

I don’t know, psychopathic tendencies run all over the Reynolds family.

Lack of empathy, a pattern of manipulating others, persistent antisocial behaviors (the DENNIS system, most of the gang’s plans), an innate immunity to stress (like when he just willed his stress away in the ‘mental health day’ episode)

Man’s a psychopath

What got me through the rat sudies in college was three things my statistics professor (who ran the rat studies) telling me three things.

They have better Healthcare than you do. They have to be healthy and cared for and all the shots and vet visits possible

Like you said, they do get born for this and are ethically killed

Their life use has to be calculated, scrutinized, debated, and approved by boards designed to keep the horrors of unchecked science at bay. If you want rats to do cocaine, you’ll need 30 pages of explanations and forms and approved methodology and proposed scientific benefit, and then they decide if it’s worthy or not. Then when you’re done, if ANYTHING goes wrong with those rats it has to be documented and explained and accepted or you’ve just got an absolute rain of hell falling on your tenure and future prospects in animal testing.

In this instance they were looking into the concept of learned helplessness, where they taught ‘nothing can be done to fix your situation’ to one group, and then removed the obstacle stopping them from leaving the shocking room, and found that, after they’d learned helplessness, they were not inclined to seek the not-shocking floor even if the door was wide open for them to move.

It’s sad, and I genuinely don’t know of the ethics behind the study, but the research itself was sound and led to further studies attempting to see if this effect applies more generally to other animals. Behavior is important to understand and study, and watching the little lab mice get PTSD in college was not a fun day, and still makes me sad (i adopted two rats, after) but the tests one can run on lab mice with PTSD is really useful for understanding the human brain.

Learned what a Posadist was thanks to this.
