“The law brings such damages in line with those seeking civil damages from childhood sexual assault”
It’s not a perfect solution, or even an actual solution in terms of protecting from harm, but if the intent is to make clear that the damage done is at least comparable, it’s a start.
Hey, FIFA! You need to cancel all World Cup games scheduled to be played in the United States and redistribute those games to be played either in Canada or in Mexico. The US must be sanctioned!

Moonrise over the mallee on Thursday night.
At that time, Artemis II was on its way to the Moon.
A bit of good news this morning:

Painted Bunting (Passerina ciris): This is a species in the Cardinal family. The bright coloured plumage of the male of this 14cm (5.5in) bird only develops in its second year. These North American birds feed on seed. Gorgeous photo taken by Stacey Rich Bergman in the United States. #paintedbunting

A massive moss covered tree gripping the earth with ancient roots. It has a large hollow section that reminds me of the painting 'The Scream' Beyond the tree the forest protected by this big guy
The air has curdled & is thick with lunacy...the ancient ones scream
