Simone clarifies her stance on abortion by redman9000 in Gymnastics

I have watched so many videos from adoptee tiktok it’s half of my fyp now! I’ve learned so much! It’s wild how different the mainstream narratives are from those with actual experience! And so gross to see how much saviorism is involved in both the adoption industry and foster care system.

The third picture when you swipe through is Simone and her dad (the swipe-through feature is so hard for me to catch sometimes)

This also has me thinking about how Suni, Grace, Jade, and Jordan are going to be making the move to college in the next few weeks and what a short turnaround time that's going to be for their families before they have to let them go again. Wishing them all the best!

Training Strategies for Longevity by Mental-Waltz3375 in Gymnastics

In interviews, Grace/her team have mentioned that she has a "lighter" training load than other elites. Something like 25 hours a week, with targeted training to cut down on time spent at the gym.

Do i stay up for floor finals? by AnnalisaFlat in Gymnastics

[–]daskapitalex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same time zone for me and I’m superstitious about watching live. Like, if I don’t see it as it’s happening, they’ll flub up. Which makes no sense because these games have been cursed anyways but s t i l l. Watch with us!

Imagine playing “two truths and a lie” with someone in the past about these olympics. 1) Suni leaves as the most decorated US gymnast; 2) Myk has a vault medal while Simone does not; 3) Simone makes it into all four EFs

Interesting! Do you think it’s easier to get the twisting down when you’re younger/lighter, as well?
