    Whenever I feel that I'm desensitised to the things I read on the internet, people find new and ever more crueler ways that make me reevaluate that.

    Over the course of nearly a decade, a man in the south of France is accused of recruiting strangers online to rape his wife after drugging her with anxiety medication. He and 50 co-defendants, including civil servants and firefighters, are to be judged in a trial beginning Monday in a court in Avignon and expected to last several months.

      I just alphabetized my tag filters. Makes Tidles a much better place. I think those filters would be even better if they were applied to thread titles too. Not everyone tags.

      That poor woman. Those poor children and other victims in the related cases from among the accused.

      I hope they find a lot more predators from the website and they all go away forever*
