A Paedophile Was Living Nearby, So I Had To Warn Neighbours
I am saying vows get broken, and sometimes get channeled elsewhere. The celibacy vow was never intended to attain more holiness/sanctity. It was all about protecting church property from relationship and inheritance claims by partners and off spring. -

Iron deficiency: Thai boxer Rodtang’s weighty woes lose him title
Thai boxer Rodtang Jitmuangnon, famously dubbed “The Iron Man,” found himself at the centre of controversy this week after failing to make weight twice, resulting in the loss of his ONE Flyweight Muay Thai World Championship title. Despite this setback, he is still set to take on British Muay Thai champion Jacob Smith at the ONE 169 event, scheduled for tomorrow, November 9, at the renowned Lumpinee Boxing Stadium. During the initial weigh-in, Rodtang recorded a water weight of 0.5 and passed. However, on the second attempt, he registered a water weight of 0.259 and failed. Nevertheless, the match will go ahead, with the weight moving up to 135.5, now classified as overweight. The fight, spanning five rounds, carries high stakes: if Rodtang emerges victorious, the championship will remain vacant, while a win for Smith will see him claiming the coveted title. The champion’s weight mishap sparked widespread commentary among Muay Thai fans, some of whom even directed their remarks towards his wife, prompting Rodtang to respond publicly. In a heartfelt message shared on his Facebook page, Rodtang addressed his critics, urging them to understand the challenges he faces daily. “You can criticise me all you want for being unprofessional but I invite you to live my life for just one fight and see the effort I put in each day. I would love to show you live how much I endure.” Rodtang expressed his deep desire to retain his championship belt for as long as possible and asked his critics to consider their capabilities before passing judgment. “Before criticising, ask yourself if you could do what I do. I never criticise because I know I couldn’t handle being in someone else’s position.” He hopes that one day his critics will understand his perspective. Rodtang’s post further emphasises his dedication to his family and his country, asserting his love for Muay Thai. He also requested that people refrain from making negative comments about his wife, reported KhaoSod. “Please don’t make disparaging comments about my wife. She is my constant source of support.” By Puntid Tantivangphaisal Photo courtesy of KhaoSod Source: The Thaiger -- 2024-11-08 -

Big smiles on Biden's face at his speech today.
Funny! But, I'll say Joe played his part. He was pushed out, right? Probably he was not even aware that the one-page 'step down from the race' letter/tweet was put out (forged signature and all.) He was pushed out, and it was his doing to push Kamala as the replacement nominee before the regime was able to decide who it would be. The Obama didn't dig that; Joe usurped his puppet master role. Kamala fever spreading, however long it took, a week, 10 days, Obama swallowed and had to add his endorsement of her, an installed nominee (he had preferred some kind of 'competitive process') knowing she'd be a poor candidate. But Joe short-circuited that plan by pushing out Kamala as his presumptive replacement. Despite media going overboard praising the Dems convention, it was clear disunity abounded. Kamala skipping the Obamas' speeches, Clintons splitting town after they spoke, Biden gone after day 1 (and early sleeper Joe relegated to a midnight speaking slot.) And none of those folks were there Kamala's acceptance speech!) During the campaign, a passive-aggressive that Joe made sure was captured on camera beaming while wearing a MAGA cap, and walking around carrying one. Could go on, but you get the picture. The 'supporters are garbage' comment came during a zoom call at the very same time Kamala was giving her 'close the deal' speech in DC. Sabotage or not? Bumbling fool or not? You decide. Sure, the staff tried to clean it up, explain it away, but it didn't wash. Sure seems like Biden pushed her out and then...well, what do you think? There has not been much 'joy and vibes' between the two camps, ever, and Doc Jill is said to be rather antagonistic re Kamala. He was happy, borderline giddy, in his speech on Thursday two days after his chosen successor went down in flames. In her speech on Wednesday Kamala barely mentioned him. Maybe she gets it; Biden set her up to take the fall.
