By blackace Go To Postbigger fan of the egg salad, tuna sandwich.
Does it go well with a can of Suntory highball?

Yeah, Asian stores are on a different level compared to Europe.
Shit innit
When it goes reported multiple times and unacted on, heads have to roll. Genuinely can't fathom what would be going on in somebody's mind to want to hurt a child. Can't see how it could even be considered a power trip.

i haven't read up on this specific case but often social workers can't do shit even if the abuse is obvious.
Yeah I am very wary of getting angry at social workers / doctors in these cases. It's a Daily Mail slippery slope of misplaced rage, since they are between a rock and a hard place, they have few powers, poorly paid and poorly funded.
Usually just reserve my anger for the acual perpetrators.

I had a 7 eleven roast beef sandwich in Tokyo which had better quality meat than high end restaurants here
brothers when is covid going to end, I want to go back 😭
7-Eleven onigiri sustained me for a full semester lol and their ramen bowels were really good. Obviously all that good shit is supremely unhealthy despite being sooooo good.
The balance between legal rights for parents and state interference for the safety of children is presumably basically impossible to strike. Unfortunately it seems to take cases like this to move the needle and try to find it.
Maybe society as a whole is largely responsible for forgetting about it in between the cases that make the news, and allowing funding to be cut where it needs to be increased.

Being a government organisation no amount of funding will get it running properly. It is what it is.
By Lunatic Go To PostBeing a government organisation no amount of funding will get it running properly. It is what it is.There are countless government organizations in many countries that work well at their mandate. It’s absurd to have such a binary viewpoint on state-run institutions.

By Lunatic Go To PostMore often than not for anything that isn't routine government organisations are terrible.
By Lunatic Go To PostMore often than not for anything that isn't routine government organisations are terrible.What would you describe as routine? I don’t think it was the private sector that managed to procure a huge supply of vaccines for your country.
There’s unique reasons as to why some government institutions fail at delivering but it being a binary “the government is universally bad at everything” is a silly view on top of being a distortion of reality.
His argument also misses the fact that 'private industry' is often equally terrible at providing goods and services, and often the desirable goods and services they provide are horrible for people and/or the planet.
Wasn't intended to get into a deep discussion over it lads. I said it is what it is meaning it's something you just accept as it won't change without some serious cultural shift in how things work in the West.

I said it is what it is meaning it's something you just accept as it won't change without some serious cultural shift in how things work in the West.Fair enough. It’s just a personal thing for me now because I have close friends who work as public defenders, social workers, my fiancée is a public librarian, etc. who do good work despite dwindling funds from the state. More money would genuinely help a lot government institutions because there are good people working at these places.

I worked in government for 4.5 and it was a soul crushing experience so I may be a bit jaded. That coupled with having to deal with them in my work and personal causes extensive annoyance.

By Daz Go To PostThe mother got off too easy.ignoring the obvious racial disparities when it comes to other people there is this idea that keeping families united is the priority rather than the safety of the child. You can see this too when a child is stripped from healthy loving foster parents and given back to their biological ones who got clean just long enough to secure custody again (which is short as fuck in some circumstances) but then go on to get back on drugs and or abuse their child. The social workers and doctors can't just remove a kid from a home in spite of the obvious, they have to go through numerous hoops, channels and the courts to remove a child from a bad situation. And then only the one kid gets removed too. And there are times when domestic abuse/sexual assault (or mysterious disappearance/murder*) of a partner isn't enough either, because he or she totally wouldn't target the kids 🙄.
Apparently they shared videos of the abuse both of them laughing 😠
By DY_nasty Go To Postand now we gonna pretend yal know where Kazakhstan is or rep anyone from thereIf you know that it is in Asia and was part of the Soviet Union, it's pretty hard to miss on a map.
By Hytch Go To PostAlways surprised by how big Russia isIt's not actually that big though. That standard map biases the northern hemisphere. Africa is much larger than Greenland.
