GAVE a 6hr speech? Nancy is still going. TBH this deserves its own story.

His cosmetic surgeon removed the hair follicles in the back to implant on top of his bald head

You say that like it’s a curse instead of a benediction. That’s where the heroes went.

Yes, it would have been better.

I saw the statement in Facebook right after it was posted, didn’t even think about the SOTU. I liked the statement, I understood her reasoning and her regret. She makes no bones about the fact that hindsight is 20/20, in fact she devoted one of many paragraphs to that idea.

I mean, it’d be cool if the new employer doesn’t publicly call the victim a liar. That’d be a decent start.

Yeah women really need to step up though

How does the fact that he was blind mean he wouldn’t need to serve time? Surely if he was able enough to work as a cook and tie up and rape a 13 yo, they would be able to accommodate his needs in prison as well?

I’m really tired of the “taken out of context” excuse.

Just to be clear, to save you any more labouring under your own misapprehension, and to reiterate my earlier clarification, nobody who says “consent can be revoked at any time” means “after the sex has happened.”

This person didn’t offer a thoughtful perspective. They misread my post and then mischaracterised me from the point onward, dismissing all my other points according to some idea of me being a rabid man hater, when I said nonetheless of the things they accused me of. Perhaps if you’re going to lecture me about my…

Um...I’m worried about your reading comprehension.

They were abusive in their own way. They may have known, but they were covering up their own shit and making sure the kids under their thrall continued being terrified to fail or gain weight- because that’s how you get the best out of kids. They learned that in Romania.

Partof Mattie’s statement asked Martha Karolyi, previous national team coordinator, if they kept him because he would let them get away with punishing training and competing while injured.

So, the solar panel tariff will cost American jobs, cost the taxpayer, and make a renewable power source more expensive thereby pushing us back toward dependence on foreign oil?

I don’t disagree, they’re all morally bankrupt. Just saying though, look at what happened to the guy who tried to report Sandusky back in the day.

You lose donors, sponsorships....it’s all money. That’s it. They even said they are keeping the president at MSU because she is an exceptional fundraiser. Kids don’t matter.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Organizations like these genuinely do not care if people in their system are being sexually abused. In fact, it’s all just part of a larger spectrum of abuse that is implicit to the very institution — proof that their “system” is working.
