Quote:Prince Harry is writing a book about his life and how he was mistreated while growing up in Buckingham Palace! I can already see some tear-jerking paragraphs: "William was allowed to ride the awarded brown pony for a whole hour, while I could only ride it for 45 minutes! And they always combed pony's mane before William rode it, but I always had to ride it with an uncombed mane! And no wonder that everyone would praise how William looked dashing on the horse, with its mane waving on the wind, while nobody looked at me on a horse with a tangled mane!"
And "The butler would bend over to serve William by turning his bottom toward me and farting into my face! When I tried to protest, my dad, Prince Charles, would tell me to calm down, but what does he know?! He never got a fart into his face, none of them did because they are all contenders to the throne, except for me! I was always a spare tire, an appendix, a COMMONER that they couldn't wait to get rid of!"
and "Whenever we raced in the pool, all of the servants would always cheer for William and give him bubbly champagne when he got out while mine never had bubbles!"
"Whenever we went fox hunting, the staff would always praise how William has such a good aim that his foxes always died instantly without any pain, but then they would cringe at my dead foxes and nag me around how I tortured them by shooting them into the stomach!"
This is kind of an unfair characterization. Sure Harry has grown up in wealth and privilege but that doesn't mean he's never had any legitimate problems. From what I understand the book isn't about him whining about being mistreated but more about why he gave up on being a royal, And frankly there are some legit things he could criticize.
1. The putting him on public display his entire life and essentially planning out his life for him.
2. All the bullshit that went on in regards to his mother's death.
3. How his wife and children were treated.
4. He's made his outrage about Prince Andrew and his family's unwillingness to cut ties him known.

NXIVM founder Keith Raniere ordered to pay $3.46M to 21 victims
Quote:A federal judge on Tuesday ordered NXIVM founder Keith Raniere to pay $3.46 million in restitution to 21 victims of the alleged sex cult.
U.S. District Judge Nicholas Garaufis ruled that 17 victims were eligible to receive restitution under the Trafficking Victims Protection Act of 2000, which applies to crimes including forced labor, sex trafficking and document servitude.

Found this news video on YouTube:
Evidently: Fleeing the state during a time of need when you could actually help things > Leaving the state because it's probably the only way you can keep Texas from enacting voting restrictions that will disenfranchise a good-sized portion of the state's population.

Nope, don't care, cut em up inch by inch. Nothing of value is lost. Itd be a dumb terrorist who wants to negotiate...with me...over an inch of a trump. I'll tell them to go fuck themselves now and forever,
Coincidentally, that's the position the us gov wants to take..... The institution would very much like to pretend it never happened. That's how we fuck ourselves....., but, that's what we're going to do.

I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
