Per the letter-writer, it’s just the term used in child advocacy circles that means calling the abuse hotline to report the crime.

Thanks for sharing this, I’m sure most of us would have no idea what to do if this happened to us or a family member.

I am not a Musk fanboy or anything but even with his failures/setbacks he has accomplished FAR more than 99% of people on this planet. Just getting Tesla where it is now is incredible when you think of what it would take to get electric cars as popular as they are, doing it by starting a car company from scratch, and w…

Oooh, an actual real-life non-ironic use of “beta male!” Do tell us more about your worldview!

The email needs to be printed out and shoved in Adams mouth. 

Guy has money, material, smart cookies, and the ability to pretty much put anything he wants into motion.

The article’s clearly an after the fact narrative. In the moment, divers weren’t sure they could get the boys ready, and there wasn’t time to actually measure the feasibility of Musk’s sub concept before Musk started shipping the sub, so it makes sense that, even if they ultimately didn’t need it and even concluded it…

“where it might be completely useless”

I wonder what Adam Clark, thousandaire, is trying to shill this time

Adam, you just lost all respect I had for you. We should not be shaming people that try to help, whether the help was needed or not. He has been very clear about his intentions to try to help if needed and if not, then great. He has also tweeted that the rescue was all the Thai government and he was not needed, but he…

The submarine thing turned out to not be needed, but I don’t understand the tone of this article. You already had an article on this site about the minisub and how it wasn’t useful. What does this article add?

Adam..

One problem with this take. After he started publicly musing over ideas, he actually did start talking to the dive rescue team privately on email. The “sub” concept was developed with input from the rescue divers and they continued to press Musk to design and deliver the sub, as shown in a series of emails posted to…

And who did his actions hurt?  No one but your fragile ego, apparently.

If you’re going to argue that he shouldn’t be confirmed because you don’t like the way you think he is going to vote on the issues... that’s how this fucking thing works.

Seen elsewhere: No article about Flint having poisoned water since April. But alllllll those reporters from different departments all somehow found time to write garbage about freaking Martha’s.

If only we had some kind of agency to patrol the borders, which would also be involved with customs.

Then you’ll be glad to know that people who are in favor of abolishing ICE aren’t proposing to end all border and customs enforcement. ICE is a 21st century invention that has turned into a shady government agency terrifying immigrants both legal and illegal, the American borders have been around much longer than ICE.

“Seriously, it’s a big place and different desks made their own plans.”

is ICE catching and deporting any Saudi nationals or does it stick to countries who don’t have money to bail out Trump/Kushner debt?
