Let's wait and see both sides. Dude says he thought he ended the zoom.
The 21-year employee for Montgomery County Public Schools – who also runs Pirate Magic, a business that throws “pirate parties” for youngsters while he portrays a character named “Captain Silly Bones” – said he has since been placed on administrative leave.
Oh....

The story was filed under a series of story tags, one of which is "masturbation"...I suppose it's a common enough story tag in the Post, but it's still funny to me...

This is f'ing crazy. Feel horrible for the victims. If you watch the video, just seeing the people hanging there that didn't make it and the ones that were able to be pulled to safety. Nuts.

Absolutely horrific.

I noticed there was one person that fell but was able (or lucky) to swing in to the floor below. That's insanity to me that there were that many people jammed into that area next to a four story drop....wtf?

If the Crown is at all rooted in reality, this should not be a surprise. Between Charles, Diana, and the queen's sister, that family seems determined to push someone to suicide.

I have not watched the interview, and doubt I ever will. But I subscribe to NYT, WaPo, LA Times, and I follow a couple local TV news outlets....................... and all of them pushed notifications to me that Meghan Markle had suicidal thoughts.

Markle strikes me as a narcissist. I'm no big fan of the royal family but nothing about her seems genuine

Pope Francis says priests cannot bless same sex unions, dashing hopes of gay Catholics
In a decree approved by Pope Francis, the Vatican on Monday said that priests cannot bless same-sex unions, saying that such relationships are "not ordered to the Creator's plan."
“The blessing of homosexual unions cannot be considered licit,” the church said.

The “explanatory note,” issued by the Vatican’s doctrinal watchdog, carries the weight of a universal ground rule for the Roman Catholic Church — and it regards one of the most controversial inside an institution divided over its stance on sexuality.
Many gay Catholics had been hopeful that Francis would create more openness inside the church, not only by speaking more welcomingly about homosexuality, but by changing church law. In a documentary released last year, the pontiff had called for the creation of civil union laws so that same-sex couples are “legally covered.”
