@Simone_Biles This is the best update we could possibly see. You are a damn hero, and I don't know that I've ever felt prouder as a gym fan since the ancient days. The script you're re-writing will empower literal millions. What a gift to us all xo

@aaliota2002 @CNN You seem to be under the total misunderstanding that young people are, by virtue of that age, ignorant. Not so. There are some little ones who reflect with greater care and are capable of far more nuanced thought than many I know in their 50's.
