That describes all of my predators as a child
In summary, the average child sexual predator’s profile is: married, male, white, heterosexual, religious, surrounded by friends and family, and a parent.
If you care about protecting children from abuse, it is necessary that you understand who the actual child sexual predators are.

With a “WOW!,” President Trump posts a claim about DOGE and “royalties linked to Obamacare” that originated on a satirical website. That site’s own About section reads: “Everything on this website is fiction… If you believe that it is real, you should have your head examined.”

It feels apt that a dead woman science writer gets the last word on this jerk.
A Sharon Begley byline, almost 5 years after her death.

Upon hearing the news James Watson had died, a STAT reporter said in our Slack, "I wish I could read what Sharon would have written."

Incredible news: Sharon in fact did pre-write a Watson obit. And it is masterful and excoriating.

The man is sleeping during press conferences and meetings. He is going to the hospital and not divulging what's happening. He is continuing to post in unhinged ways. He's 1000% UNFIT to work anywhere. Who would hire an 80 year old man who was displaying this kind of behavior for ANY job at all?

The poll only counts those who think they can escape the UK, not those who would go if they could, but are too poor, too old and so on. The proportion that wants to leave is much higher.
