Any truth to the actress Rae Dawn chong (Tommy Chong's daughter) hooking up with Mick Jagger when she was only 15? She said it was consensual but does one miss that. maybe Mick had a thing for young teenage girls like other rockers then?

So, about Rae, I only had contact with two biographies of Mick. Jagger Unauthorized (1993) and Mick: The Wild Life and Mad Genius of Jagger (2012) both by Christopher P Andersen. In Jagger Unauthorized she denies having sexual relations with Mick saying: "Sex is the nature of both Mick's and my personalities," admitted Chong, "but we were never romantically or sexually involved."

In the 2012 biography there is only a small mention of her and nothing relevant. There may be details somewhere that I haven't read, but a few years ago she admitted to sleeping with Mick when she was 15. She said he didn't force her into anything, but he didn't ask her age. She also does not place herself as a victim, classifying the 70s as a different time. I don't know more about them two specifically, but I don't think she's lying.

About Mick hanging out with teenagers...it's mentioned often. To name a few, Natasha Fraser (daughter of Antonia Fraser), Nenna Eberstadt (she was 16), Cornelia Guest (she was 18), Gwynne Rivers (she was also 18) and Mackenzie Phillis, daughter of John Phillips from The Mamas and the Papas. This Mackenzie says she also had an incestuous relationship with her father, and I don't know the details of that story, so I'm not saying I believe it or not, but it's good to tread carefully on the things she says about Mick.

In short, Mick has had a lot of sexual contact with teenagers since becoming a rockstar. And while we can't be sure if he actively pursued them for this reason, I think it's safe to say he didn't care about age (to be fair, none of them cared). Although, according to Mick: The Wild Life and Mad Genius of Jagger, Jerry:

was convinced that he was flaunting his affairs with ever-younger women in a calculated effort to humiliate her.

People being kept out of the Duplay house compilation

…It was necessary, in order to reach the eminent guest deigning to inhabit this humble little hole of a place, to pass through a long alley flanked with planks stacked there, the owner's stock-in-trade. This alley led to a little yard from seven to eight feet square, likewise full of planks. A little wooden staircase led to a room on the first floor. Prior to ascending it we perceived in the yard the daughter of the carpenter Duplay, the owner of the house. This girl allowed no one to take her place in ministering to Robespierre's needs. As women of this class in those days freely espoused the political ideas then prevalent, and as in her case they were of a most pronounced nature, Danton had surnamed Cornelie Copeau "the Cornelia who is not the mother of the Gracchi." Cornelie seemed to be finishing spreading linen to dry in the yard; in her hand were a pair of striped cotton stockings, in fashion at the time, and which were certainly similar to those we daily saw encasing the legs of Robespierre on his visits to the Convention. Opposite her sat Mother Duplay between a pail and a saladbasket, busily engaged in picking salad herbs. Two men in military garb, standing close to her in a respectful attitude, seemed to be taking part in the duties of the household, obligingly picking herbs, in order to be free to chat more unrestrainedly under the shelter of this familiar occupation. These two men, since famous in their respective positions, were, the one General Danican, who since then, on the 13th Vendemiaire, became impressed with the idea that he was a Royalist, and who perhaps still retains the belief because he is one of England's pensioners; the other was General, later on Marshal, Brune. Freron and I told Cornelie Copeau that we had called to see Robespierre. She began by informing us that he was not in the house, then asked whether he was expecting our visit. Fréron, who was familiar with the premises, advanced towards the staircase, while Mother Duplay shook her head in a negative fashion at her daughter. Both generals, smilingly enjoying what was passing through the two women's minds, told us plainly by their looks that he was at home, and to the women that he was not. Cornelie Copeau, on seeing that Freron, persisting in his purpose, had his foot on the third step, placed herself in front of him, exclaiming: ”Well, then, I will apprise him of your presence," and, tripping upstairs, she again called out, "It’s Fréron and his friend, whose name I do not know." Fréron thereupon said, "It’s Barras and Freron," as if announcing himself, entering the while Robespierre's room, the door of which had been opened by Cornelie Copeau, we following her closely.  Memoirs of Barras: member of the Directorate (1899) page 167-169, regarding a meeting he and Fréron tried to have with Robespierre following their return from Marseilles in March 1794.

Very little time before the cathostraphy where Camille Desmoulins was victim, Joseph Planche, the humanist, the old rhetorics professor at the Bourbon college, who was strongly tied to him, met him in the hooks around Rue de Tournon. Camille was concerned, and told him: ”I’m lost. I went to see Robespierre, and he refused to see me.” Historie de Robespierre et du coup d’état du 9 thermidor (1865) by Ernest Hame. According to J.M Thompson’s Robespierre (1935), Hamel obtained this anecdote from a friend of a friend of the mentioned Planche.

”…Try to see Maximilien, [said Charlotte Robespierre], you will be content; he was very glad that our younger brother saw you at Melun. On this occasion he spoke with interest of the exercises of your pupils and of the attention you had in entrusting him with presiding over them. I won’t introduce you to him, I would not succeed; I even advise you not to speak to him about me. You will be told he is out, don't believe it, insist on your visit.” The Robespierre family was housed on rue Saint-Honoré, near the Assomption chapel, the sister and younger brother at the front, the older brother at the back of the courtyard. Gaillard went to Maximilien’s apartment; a young man, looking at him with the most insolent air, said to him, barely having opened the door: “The representative isn’t home…” “He may not be there for those who come to talk to him about business, but that is not my doing; I will talk to him about his family that I know a lot, you have seen me come out of his sister's apartment who is involved in state affairs no more than I am... Bring my name to the representative, he will receive me, I’m sure of it.” The fellow did not dare refuse to carry a paper on which Gaillard had taken care to indicate himself in such a way as to be recognized, he immediately came back and gave the visitor his paper saying: “The representative does not know you,” and the door was violently slammed shut!… . The insolence of this brazen man whom Gaillard knew to be the secretary of Robespierre, son of Duplay, to whom the sister attributed the excesses of his brother, the sorrow he felt at losing the hope of saving the judges of Melun and to ensure his personal rest, all these thoughts made him very angry; he calls the young man a liar, insolent, he accuses him of deceiving Robespierre and of increasing the number of his enemies every day, all this in the loudest voice with the intention of being heard by Maximilien and lure him to one of the windows where, surely, he would have recognized him. New disappointment, no one appears and Gaillard goes back to tell Mlle Robespierre about his misadventure. “I prepared you for it, she told him. ”No one can approach my brother unless he is a friend of those Duplays, with whom we are lodging; these wretches have neither intelligence nor education, explain to me their ascendancy over Maximilien. […]” La Révolution, la Terreur, le Directoire 1791-1799: d’après les mémoires de Gaillard (1908) page 264-265. This anecdote gets described as taking place somewhere in May 1794.

4 prairial, year 2 of the French Republic, one and indivisible Nine o’clock in the evening a young girl presented herself at the house of citizen Duplaix [sic], asking to see Robespierre and saying that she had been looking for him for three hours. At the response made by citoyenne Duplaix [sic], the eldest daughter, that Robespierre wasn’t there, this young woman said that it was very surprising he was not at his house and showed a lot of impertinence and humor by saying that he was a public official and made to respond to all those who could come to his house; these threats obliged us to take her to the Committee of General Security. Signed: Chatelet. Note written by an agent May 23 1794. The ”young girl” in question is Cécile Renault. Cited in Histoire du tribunal révolutionnaire de Paris: avec le journal de ses actes (1881) by Henri Wallon, volume 4, page 5.

Those whom fate did not lead to the Duplay family presume that it was enough to be introduced to them to see Robespierre: they are wrong; I appeal to the testimony of all his former friends; not one could reach him: the entrance to his residence, similar to Tartarus, was constantly guarded by Cerberians who overshadowed everything... You, whom terror has compressed for so long, have you understood it well? No: to feel its full weight, compelling circumstances would often have had to drag you into its temple, where the sinister look of a Chalabre was sometimes equivalent to a death sentence; where once suspected your loss was sworn, which you accelerated even by no longer going there.  À Maximilien Robespierre aux Enfers (1794) by Paul-Auguste Taschereau-Fargues, page 11.

A young and pretty person aged 17 to 18, accompanied by her aunt, arrives one morning, by carriage, at Robespierre's door, to ask for her father's liberation. These two women speak to Mother Duplay, who they ask if Robespierre is avaliable. “No,” this she-cat replies abruptly. This initial reception intimidated the young person so much that, without daring to open her mouth, she sadly returned to her carriage. As she was about to climb into it, she said to herself that the way in which she had been received was perhaps the result of a lack of formality towards this woman whom, due to her dirty and disgusting attire, she took for the servant of the house. She therefore returns, the 25 livres assignat in hand, to try to make the female dragon yield. Femme Duplay eagerly runs to meet her, and, grabbing her by the arm, says to her: “Now that you are alone, you can go up. Citizen Robespierre really likes young people your age.” This innocent girl got so disturbed that she immediately went back to her aunt, whom she told, completely frightened, about her adventure. Notes et souvenirs de Courtois de l’Aube, député à la Convention nationale, cited in La Révolution française: revue d’histoire moderne et contemporaine (1887), volume 12, page 929-930.

I'd never walk cornelia street again 🤝 so long london, had a good run

ok I know these songs aren't actually related at all but I think an interesting side effect of her ltr is that she's put specific places to that relationship that she feels can never been removed from his memory

i love this about her discography, and also how she describes a person as a place. "you were my town, now i'm in exile seeing you out"... "little did you know your home's really only a town you're just a guest in" (this one is about a literal place but i also feel like it's about a person) etc etc

[kwyw]

For the person who commented on the Rolling Stone article:

No, she didn’t shoot herself in the foot. It wasn’t a guest room. It was literally a room at Taylor’s house specifically for Karlie that had her favorite snacks, etc. and just because Karlie had that room at Taylor’s doesn’t necessarily mean she always slept in that room.

Also, Karlie had her OWN house…with a garden gate that Taylor herself says she snuck in through every night that summer….and she was photographed going to Karlie’s house through that gate. Just like they were both papped leaving Karlie’s house….through that garden gate.

Karlie was also photographed at Cornelia Street.

So what now?

I think you’re referring to this reply, anon? Yeah, I agree.

The girls were full on glass closeting for a reason. Taylor WANTED to be as public as possible with Karlie. She just had to limit it to being really, really, really close friends. Who Taylor accidentally got caught kissing and grinding all up on. Then they finally made the decision to go into their love blackout, coincidentally, right after the election. For whatever reason, this is what works for them.

Taylor still has Karlie all over her art. Her music, music videos, tour visuals etc. And Karlie still gives hint after hint about all kinds of Taylor projects. It’s not her looking for clout when none of us know about them beforehand. It’s genuine Easter eggs at that point. Because they still want those of us that pay attention to see it, since we are the only ones that truly see what they’re showing us and believe in them.

The Pack

The Pack

Introducing the Denny Royal family of Moonwood Mills. Of course, they are a family of werewolves consisting of Queen Veronica, her husband Jakob and their six kids and one grandchild. The oldest are triplets Adna, Cornelia, and Kristofer. The other three are Panagiota, Jakov, and Zsolt. I'll get to the grandchild in a bit.

But this story starts of with the Queen wanting to find a balance between the werewolves of the land who want to be more civilized, and those who want to be wild. In doing so, she decides to bring a then teenage daughter Adna to help her out with the civilized werewolves. She did discuss all things werewolf business to Kristopher Volkov, while Adna meet and fell in love with one of his kids, Jacob. Well, Veronica's plan do go according to plan, except for one thing: Adna being pregnant with Adrian. When Adna told her mother the news, Veronica was ferious. To this day Veronica did not change the rules of future of the crown since Adrian was born out of wedlock. She's still pondering about it, and also wondering if Adna will change that rule when she becomes Queen.

But since then Adna, Cornelia, Kristofer, Panagiota, and Adrian (Because of his mother) all went off into college. There will be another story featuring all five of them.

For now, this story is centered around Queen Veronica, Jakob, Jakov, and Zsolt.

--------

As Jakov embraced his teenage years, Queen Veronica took the momentous step of anointing him as Prince and naming him the ambassador to Tartosa. With pride swelling in his chest, Jakov accepted the titles, ready to step into his new role. Eager to discover his future, he went into the family room and logged onto the computer to take an aptitude test, designed to guide young Sims on their educational paths. When the results came back, they revealed his outgoing nature was a perfect fit for studies in Communications or History. It seemed Jakov would soon join his older siblings on their academic journeys.

However, the excitement of his new responsibilities was soon overshadowed by a royal obligation. Queen Veronica invited Jakob, Jakov, and Zsolt to attend a fundraiser at the local library. The evening began with a promise, but quickly took a turn for the worse.

Zsolt, feeling lonely, found himself discouraged by the absence of kids his age. In a moment of melancholy, he took to the keyboards, pouring his feelings into a soulful blues tune that echoed through the hall.

Jakov, determined to make the best of the situation, engaged with guests, showcasing his knack for conversation. Despite his efforts, the atmosphere felt stifled. The only ones truly enjoying the evening were Veronica and Jakob, who animatedly conversed with an eclectic group of attendees, including Queen Elaine Pruitt of Bridleton Bay, the enigmatic Vampire Queen Chloe Masters, and the Spellcaster Queen Ashlee Embers. Yet, amidst the royal chatter, the fundraiser fell flat, lacking the energy and excitement it had promised. The event ended with all the werewolves howling.

Upon returning home, the mood lightened as Jakov and Jakob turned into werewolves and challenged each other to a spirited game of tug-of-war.

Once inside their castle, laughter soon filled the room, providing a welcome escape from the day’s disappointments. Soon, both Jakov and Zsolt began to play-fight, enjoying their playful rivalry and lifting each other’s spirits with the fun.

As the night drew to a close, Queen Veronica went back outside to gaze at the moonlit landscape of Moonwood Mills, her heart heavy with the weight of her family's legacy. With Jakov now a prince and Zsolt still finding his place, she couldn't help but wonder: What challenges and changes lay ahead for the Denny Royal family? How would they navigate the delicate balance between tradition and the future? And how would they address the rift among the werewolves—those who want to embrace their wild nature and those who wish to be more civilized? These questions lingered in the air, echoing through the quiet of their home.

@heroes-den Trevor raised a brow as he looked his 'guest' in the eyes. "So, care to tell me why you need another bodyguard when someone in your position has enough men to fill an army at your beck and call?" The tiefling said as he eyed the obvious noblewoman from across the table at the inn he'd been resting at between jobs.

"Because you are a skilled warrior, and I need someone that I can trust. You have a good reputation, and are known for your skill with weapons." Cornelia was blunt, looking him in the eye.

[beikonsims]

Later, then the guests finally left, Vidcund tried his best to reassure Cassandra that everything is going to be alright. They wanted to believe Bella knows what she's doing and that Luis is a good man, who wouldn't just try to sneak his family into the Goth fortune.

Cornelia spent the rest of the afternoon in the comfort and solitude of her own room, reading textbooks and picking up some useful skills for the next week of school.

Vidcund tried to do some office work, but ended up chatting online with his brothers for hours. He found out about Strangetown getting greener lately and Lazlo was being particularly dodgy about the subject.
