Read this. No one should be doubting her.

Yeah, she does skills so difficult and dangerous they’ve been outlawed in competition for fear of other gymnasts trying to match her.  I can’t comprehend those who don’t trust her to know when it’s unsafe for her to continue.

Even without the twisties, I still don’t see how anyone, gymnast or not, can tell where the hell they are when they’re flinging themselves around like that, especially as fast as they go! I am always in amazement over that part alone; the precision is just icing on the cake.

“Imagine doing a double flip 10 ft in the air and losing the sense of which way is up or down.”

Someone brought a desktop to a phone fight. Cheater.

It’s similar to the yips in any other sport, except in gymnastics, having the yips (or the twisties in this case) can lead to serious injury or death.

The immediate reason she pulled out was she started experiencing what gymnasts call “the twisties”, which means they lose the awareness of where their body is in space during a skill. Google it. Imagine doing a double flip 10 ft in the air and losing the sense of which way is up or down. That’s one of the primary…

I was reading some other comments about the situation. It sounds like it’s not a “mental health” like she’s buckling under pressure. It’s more that it’s an actual condition that sometimes happens to gymnasts where they suddenly can’t calibrate where they are in the air in relation to the ground, and so can’t judge how…

“Slip Susan Collins a Lobster Roll” was the name of my ska band in college.

When Ted Cruz is further to the “Left” than you, ya done f’ed up.

Whenever I see that name all I can think of is what she did to Al Franken. Don’t think I’ll ever move past that...

Wait. Didn't Elon already take people to Space?

I’m glad I’m not alone, at least! (This one was doable because there’s few enough comments that I could scroll through.) Very frustrating and it’s been like this for quite a while now. And the tech help page takes you to a “nope, this isn’t it” page.

We better see Lani again! She was one of the only sympathetic characters!

I agree.  All the guests are so unlikeable, those girls in particular.

I’m on the fence with this first episode. Maybe my expectations were too high with the casting. However, I would have relished a scenario where Olivia and Paula were the ones getting sent home in a box.

This last point is crucial since the precocious little dude has ominously announced that “his lifetime goal [is] ‘immortality,’ or specifically the creation of technology that will allow humans to live forever.”

Maybe there could be "women's sports" and "fancy lil lady sports" so that dainty little terfs won't have to worry about competing against women they might lose to.
