And of course my waking up was a combo of seeing Scientology abuses/the dark side and Andreas Heldal-Lund helping me look at such basic truths. He's become one of my dearest friends and tragically we will lose him within 5 months-15 months. 💜🌷🤟⛩️
I just think you are the best! You are kind, caring, fair, and very passionate about what you do and care about. You've made this trial so interesting! Thank you for your summaries and transcripts. I wait every day for you to say "Underground Bunker!"
In addition to the now understood consent issue and what makes it rape, I have found JD2’s explanation of how she could not emotionally accept and deal with it being rape 100% credible. How she tried, albeit with zero power or even influence, to transform the nightmare into something icky but comprehensible. How she believed even one follow up date would make everything sort of okay. Her words about trying to stay physically unharmed, omg. To get him to calm down. BLECCHH. Takes me back 50+ years. It all rings completely true to me.
I always look forward to your re-caps. Cohen has placed a lot of emphasis on the witnesses’ memories. I agree JD 2s mother’s testimony about what stuck out to her was strong. But it her than Masterson himself (maybe), who are the defense witnesses? Experts? It can’t be Luke Watson, who has been present constantly. So who? Looking forward to tomorrow. Thanks!
Not rain, not hail, not sleet nor howling winds shall stay this journalist from filing his daily. Thanks Tony, you da best.
Kudos for the Pratchett reference!

*a much needed smile:)*
Whether I watch you before or after reading the day’s notes, the summary nature of the video is appreciated.
Late night Listener: Tony. .I've greatly respected & loved you since our first meeting
In 2000 when you did the interview about my waking up & escaping out of Scientology (Sympathy for the Devil" for The New Times LA)
Your kindness was outstanding!
Then reading you take on Scientology has been amazing. But this daily accounting of
The Danny Masterson trial, 4times a day...it's been educational, informational and extremely helpful! Thank you, Tony! 🌹

🍻 Cheers, Proprietor-san. I'd love to be able to buy you a well-deserved round.
Looks like Tony was at the Tam 'O Shanter. I love that place.
I think it was Ye Rustic Inn in Los Feliz. Classic dive bar from the 70s.
Having upgraded to a paid subscription yesterday, I've decided that I paid for that IPA. Hope it went down well, you deserve it.
Thank you!
Well done!
Another excellent trial summary. Thank you, Tony!
Would love to have an IPA with you
