I work in the media so I’m desensitized but I think there’s something deeply wrong with us that this is considered normal.

A couple of weeks ago, news outlets on social media were sharing the video of the NYC helicopter crash that killed a whole family without any trigger warnings. Today they’re posting photos of the pope’s corpse.

WOAH woah woah woah woah we’re doing dresses over jeans again!!?

I’m not gonna say who but I really feel like we’re witnessing another prominent male celebrity going the way of Liam Payne. We really need to learn to leave people alone

Have you ever beaten your boss at a board game, tennis match, golf, or shown them up at a pub quiz? Did your boss take it well? Or badly? Did it impact your career at all? I want to hear from you!

Having a handsome day

I know I don’t know what possessed me!

Just went through old messages with someone I cut out because they never had time for me and constantly canceled plans, just to see if I overreacted. But it was even worse than I remembered. 🥲

I haven't watched the documentary yet, but I will. I'm hoping they can dig into some of this and determine where the slippery slope began and what contributed to Ruby getting so severely sucked into Jodi's dark world.

Kevin is in contact with his kids which says a lot. But I can't shake the feeling that, somehow, we haven't heard the full story yet. Like right at the start of the call, Kevin said it was Chad's idea to speak to their followers about his bedroom. (Obviously, I have no idea if this is true.)

I don't know if Kevin was 100% on board with the parenting decisions back then. All I know is that he passionately defended them on the record.

I don't know when things turned abusive. I don't know when Jodi came along.

All I know is that between 2020 and 2023, things got a lot worse.

Kevin has said in recent interviews he pushed back on some of Jodi's teachings. I think he's referring to things like Chad sleeping on a beanbag.

It's weird now thinking about how eager he was to explain that decision to me.

You could say that you see the beginnings of something more sinister — how children are "antifragile" and that they "need to be exposed to challenges and difficulties so that they can grow."

But there was also a lot of what sounded like parental love.

It's really eerie looking back on it now.

Kevin and Ruby struck me as strict parents who had some controversial ideas about how responsible very young kids are for their own lives.

Reading back some of the conversation, it seems likely Jodi was around. Kevin mentioned working with "licensed therapists and psychological professionals."

I Interviewed the Frankes in June 2020. They spoke an equal amount about their parenting, I would say. I'm going to share a few excerpts.

I'm making no assumptions here. Only that this interview captures a moment in time, and it feels relevant now that Kevin Franke has started speaking out.

I watched 'The Traitors' US and UK — and it's clear which version of this brilliant reality show is better The British version of "The Traitors" outshines its US counterpart, with superior gameplay dynamics, production styles, and contestant attitudes.

Super ironic that the TikTok ban has done more for Chinese propaganda than TikTok itself ever has

Some creators say they won't pay their taxes if TikTok gets banned in the US As a deadline for a potential US ban on TikTok nears, some creators are pointing out that their livelihoods will be affected if the app does go dark.

Some creators say they won't pay their taxes if TikTok gets banned in the US: "My place of employment no longer exists."

"You can't take away my job and still demand taxes. That's not how this works, alright?"
