No problem!
She actually has Craniocervical Instability (brain stem compression from loose/weak ligaments in the neck). She also has Ehlers-Danlos which is the likely culprit, with the pregnancy being the trigger.

How gracious to return to Greece what never belonged to the vatican and further diminish the action by calling it a “donation.”

Everyone is talking about the podcaster’s actions which, yes, went above and beyond. But the teen who called in is the hero at the core of the story. In familial cases of sex abuse, reporting can get extremely tricky; you don’t know if your siblings will be placed together or if they’ll support your decision. Overcoming so much fear and confusion enough to disclose like that is incredible, and I hope he’s getting wrap-around services.

I'm curious - Did she get Graves Disease or something similar? If not, you don't have to tell me what. I'm just curious if my hunch was right.

Nor will any other government for the past crimes of their armies. What is gained by saying this?

One time, we were throwing a party at my house, and the cops did show up, but we were smart and marked hands with a circle for 21+, and an X for <21, so the underages just had to put their drinks down.
Except for one of my friends, and one of my roommates friends, who had never met before, and were the only two black people at the party, each climbed onto the washer and dryer, crouched, and pulled the French doors shut.
Cops left pretty soon, and we were wondering where the fuck D and R were, until they knocked on the doors to the laundry nook because the hinges were stuck.

“Sailor, Statesman” as a description doesn’t do Robert Smalls justice. Read up on this man’s story, and then can someone please get Lin Manuel Miranda to write a musical about him?

What was the original name? I just know Robert smalls was a badass and really convincing wartime LARPer (as in tricking the enemy, not playing pretend at war, he clearly wasn't playing pretend)

And if he had previous sexual abuse reports, how did he get these kids?
