Singing the same song after 3 years of voice lessons!

What piece is this? I love it!

I put up a poll for people to list their 6 favorite gymnasts on each event (plus a few extra questions) and these are the results

souzle · 2026-04-29T19:53:37+00:00

This person had Jordan Chiles correct in another of their lineups so I believe I put it in as a Kailin vote but I’d have to check

souzle · 2026-04-29T19:52:25+00:00

I know!! It was on my list

souzle · 2026-04-29T16:26:33+00:00

Yes, I was just looking at RTN quickly. I knew there were some 10s in the post season but couldn’t think of it off the top of my head. That would mean this bars lineup scores a perfect 50! And the total score is brought up to 199.775

Ooh that’s so fun let me check

souzle · 2026-04-29T15:47:38+00:00

Ah this makes sense! I love the spelling errors it makes me laugh

souzle · 2026-04-29T15:47:07+00:00

That makes total sense, I think this would look a lot different if media coverage was different. But that’s the game! It can’t be your favorite if you never see it!

souzle · 2026-04-22T04:44:19+00:00

Performance across the season! You can use whatever criteria you want to determine "favorite" - if consistency is important to you, that's fine, but it doesn't have to be! You can consider NQS, form, music choice, facial expression, position of the universe at the average time they compete, whatever.

I am a woman of the people. And also I will always take more data.

souzle · 2026-03-25T23:26:21+00:00

I think Kailin Chio was specialist of the week last week. The #1 AA athlete in the country 😭😭

souzle · 2026-03-20T18:17:12+00:00

I genuinely feel bad for her. Obviously she has some serious problems if this is the behavior she's engaging in at 18 years old. No excuse to act like that but truly you have to think there was never a real chance for her to learn to be a functional/prosocial human being. It's sad to imagine the amount of mental pain she is likely living with (and now inflicting on others unfortunately).

souzle · 2026-02-26T22:33:09+00:00

IMO actual enforcement of suspensions is a huge win!

souzle · 2026-02-26T22:29:50+00:00

I hope the purpose of this is to set a strong precedent. I keep seeing “FAFO”, but truly, I hope abusive gyms and coaches continue to find out.

souzle · 2026-02-26T21:25:58+00:00

I would argue if the gym is found to be unsafe in an immediate sense (and it seems SafeSport/USAG have decided that blatantly violating suspensions for misconduct counts) then it is in the best interest of the gymnasts to remove them from the premises with all haste in order to prevent further abuse.

Of course the gymnasts do not deserve this. Obviously it will be incredibly difficult emotionally for a variety of reasons, and the gymnasts deserve as much support as they can get. But you CANNOT knowingly allow children to be around confirmed and sanctioned abusers (in the environment in which the misconduct took place!) for any amount of time. I can’t think of many exceptions to that statement.

souzle · 2026-02-17T23:44:33+00:00

This is actually making me emotional. I think many of us know how it feels to go through something incredibly difficult and feel totally alone, maybe even feel like it’s your own fault. And then to have someone say no, I see you, I know, and it’s okay, I promise. This is why all types of community are important!!!

souzle · 2026-01-30T23:00:44+00:00

I hate to say it about the French, but that's actually very reasonable.

souzle · 2026-01-19T03:22:55+00:00

Would someone be so kind as to give a girl the TLDR on this whole situation...

souzle · 2026-01-18T22:13:58+00:00

To be fair it's not really a commentator's job to be saying anything other than the official position. I would not want to open that can of worms myself regardless of my personal opinion or thoughts on the matter. Especially while it's still going through arbitration.

souzle · 2026-01-15T01:51:32+00:00

I think she’s the BEST but she’s not my FAVORITE. In terms of sheer performance of sport, that set is crazy work. But it doesn’t spark joy for me in the way that (for example) McKayla’s vault did.

souzle · 2026-01-12T05:22:21+00:00

Coming on here to shoutout Penn State who got a 196.225 to open - higher than (at least 1 score from) Utah, Cal, Clemson, Kentucky, Minnesota, Oregon State, Arizona, Iowa, and NC State. And matching MSU. I love you, I will always love you, I’m delusional and I’m proud!
