I didn't notice at the time that the first thing he said was "I haven't raped anyone". But basic statistics + stories from those who escape the sex industry say that the more frequently you use prostitutes, the more likely that you are in fact a rapist.
Consent from someone who can't freely give it, isn't really consent.

If you have to compare yourself to Hitler, Pol Pot or Jack the Ripper to "not seem such a bad person" ... then I think you may be a bad person.
any opinions are just speculation, but my guess, being morbid, is that there was not a hull breach and implosion (although that would have been the most merciful fate for them), but instead the amateur level of building this thing meant that it lost power and communication and got itself tangled in the titanic's wreckage or is sitting on the actual seabed with no way to release ballast to resurface.
terrifying.
what's your gut feeling?
my question is this==> Didn’t they survey the mini-sub BEFORE they paid their fee?
Just because someone is rich, doesn't mean they are wise or sensible.

Yeah, they found a rear hatch cover and landing frame.
This is now a recovery mission.
I don't think there's going to be anything to recover though.
The more you read, the more unsafe it was. You'd have to be a fool to trust your life to those people, they seemed to want to cut corners when it came to safety.
Apparently one employee raised safety concerns and they fired and sued them to prevent them revealing anything. Always a sign of a company putting safety first, right?

Story Musgrave taking a risk as part of his profession to spacewalk and fix the Hubble Telescope is not the same as a bored fat multi-millionaire hiring some sherpa's to guide him to the top of Everest and getting everyone killed.
Yes, there is no discovery involved, it's just someone who wants to buy an achievement.
Stupid ventures like this should be made illegal. You couldn’t pay me enough money to get into a claustrophobic contraption and go into some death zone!
They should have to pay a deposit / fee towards potential search and rescue costs.

I wonder why I'm supposed to care about some morons that risk their lives to get some kicks. It seems like a dangerous affair, with the thing controlled by a crappy $15 game controller!
So I don't give a damn, just as I don't care about the pricks that freeze to death on Everest - you wanted adventure? You got it ... oh, you thought it was going to be a cool anecdote at dinner parties did you? Too bad, so sad.

He was "knocked back" because his young child had already figured out that daddy doesn't seem to work like her friends' daddies do and he didn't really have a good answer. The fact is, he doesn't work to provide for his family - he begs.
Her next question should be "so have you stopped the bad men daddy?"
"No, silly child - if I did I'd stop getting money. The purpose is to perpetuate the grift, not to ever achieve the pretend purpose"
Does his book really free anyone from mental bondage? I thought it was just anecdotes of his sexual escapades ...
when i look at "latest" on my phone (iphone safari) browser, i don't see things in the same order as when i visit on my laptop.
even if i swipe down to refresh phone browser it still doesnt match up.
i'm just curious what's going on from a technical standpoint.

i've filed this under news and world events, although i could've posted it under entertainment, lol.
apparently, joe biden will be seeking re-election for another term in the white house.. this, despite a recent poll showing that 70% of people don't want him to run again.. biden just has to be the worst president i've seen.
his gaffes, over-relience on a prompter, and, more than any other president, his refusal to answer journalists' questions, all go to make him top of the list in terms of bad presidents.. it will certainly provide entertainment, if nothing else..
For the simpletons out there.
Someone bragging about doing something doesn't mean they did that thing. Even if they did, the consent part matters.
The rape claim was a total invention, literally copied word-for-word straight out of an episode of Law and Order.
That the dems repeatedly manipulate the "justice" system and other depts of the government for their own political shenanigans is the scariest thing right now. If you can't see that and a shiver go down your spine, I pity you, but you deserve to live in the world you vote for.
One day that machine will turn on you if you step our of line.

Oh yeah, an election coming up. You know what that means?
Any minute now there'll be some "racist" incident. It won't be racist, it will be some piece-of-shit black thug with 50 priors that get's shot by a cop, but it will be what they need to dust off the BLM marching band.
All the dumb asses will be out on the street on command and their brown-shirts, I mean Antifa, there to burn things down.
Martial law? There will be some reason for the election to be handled some special way, and Biden will get a surge of votes right near the end to win, however big the lead against him.
I don't know why they don't just go full banana-republic at this point and declare he has 100% of the votes while collecting everyone's guns.
