In a quite disgusting turn of events, the leading candidate for the government of the state of São Paulo was recorded on tape having sex with five prostitutes.

 

Brazil truly has no limits.

What's his name? I feel like googling. 

If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated! Full story and how to help can be found here!

João Doria, found him. I suppose he's married or something? Otherwise honestly I think leaking a video is more of a disgusting act than the act itself (although I don't know prostitution laws in Brazil, I must admit), as long as he paid and everything...

It's disgusting that this was leaked. The guy and the prostitutes have the right to have some privacy. To be honest, I'm not really worried about his image. I'm worried about the prostitutes, because this country is so misogynistic that they will be the ones to blame, and God knows what enraged people will do with them. Dória defends conservative values (including the family as the basis for morality) and I'm sure a bunch of dumb and hypocritical people will say that the prostitutes are the ones who "tempted" him. As I said, this country has no limits when it comes to dumbness.
 
The funny thing is that he's married and he recorded a video with his wife by his side claiming the leaked video to be fake. His wife looked really disheartened, though, and on the verge of tears. Then, he accused his political adversary of editing the video with his picture on it. WHAT THE HELL?

Yeah, he has the (lawfully speaking) right to do stuff like this, although when you're married and not in the kind of relationship where one agrees this to be ok, it's rather....meh. Apart from it being a rather weak move to leak a video like this, at least he could be a man and say "yeah, I did that" instead of going around saying "nah, not me!". That's pretty much the worst excuse ever apart from "I was just taking a naked nap there alone and suddenly I woke up and there were 5 naked women around me and I was laughing".

    • Just finished watching the Gauff-Muchova final at the China Open, and I’ll be watching both the men’s and women’s finals at the GSOC HearingLife Tour Challenge, but here’s what else I’ll be watching (or at least trying to watch) the next two weeks.    BWF Denmark Open, ATP Shanghai Masters, WTA Wuhan/Ningbo Open, FIVB Elite 16 Joao Pessoa, FIFA U17 Women’s Football World Cup (lesser priority, the knockout stage matches are in late October to early November), European Table Tennis Championships (lesser priority), FIS Ski/Snowboard Big Air WC Chur, UCI Track Cycling World Championships, WA Swimming WC Shanghai, NBA/NFL/NHL, any semi big curling events that I can find streaming for, any club season volleyball matches that I can find streaming for (some are on VBTV which helps but this season my teams are Gas Sales Blunergy Piacenza, Vero Volley Monza, Vakıfbank, Eczacıbaşı, Asseco Resovia), 3X3 Basketball World Tour Amsterdam/Macau (lesser priority and no group stage matches, only knockout if I have time and I’m not feeling too fatigued)   Edit: There’s also the Archery and Triathlon WC Finals, damn there’s a lot going on. 
    • WTA 1000 China Open | Beijing, China   Women’s Singles 1.  Coco Gauff 2.  Karolina Muchova 3.  Qinwen Zheng 3.  Paula Badosa   Women’s Doubles 1.  Sara Errani/Jasmine Paolini 2.  (RUS) Chan Hao-Ching/Veronika Kudermetova 3.  (RUS) Elisabetta Cocciaretto/Liudmila Samsonova 3.  Bethanie Mattek-Sands/Sofia Kenin   Full Results
    • Coco Gauff defeats  Karolina Muchova 6-1, 6-3 for the China Open title, improving to 8-1 in WTA tour level finals while Muchova is now 1-5.
    • Dodgers fell 3-0 behind in the first inning to Padres but managed to win 7-5 in the first NLDS game.   Phillies' bullpen collapsed vs Mets allowing 5 runs and one out in the 8th inning
    • WWE Bad Blood 2024 Results:   CM Punk def. Drew McIntyre (Hell in a Cell Match)   WWE Women's Champion Nia Jax def. Bayley - TITLE RETAINED   Damian Priest def. Finn Balor   Rhea Ripley def. Women's World Champion Liv Morgan by DQ - TITLE RETAINED   Roman Reigns & Cody Rhodes def. Solo Sikoa & Jacob Fatu
    • To be fair, the only way to make the qualifying day shorter is by allowing fewer athletes and I really don't think that's a good trade-off for the sport. Qualifying day can be the biggest spectacle one can imagine, it's still not going to draw amazing viewing numbers anyway, since it's basically just laying the foundation for the weekend.   Ice resurfacing definitely takes a while if done properly, if pushing it they could maybe get it done just under 15 minutes or so. I'm a little afraid it goes the way of athletics, where things are pushed more and more into ever shorter formats. Shorttrack days and sessions can only realistically be made shorter if they spread a World Cup out over 4 instead of 3 days, but it's not like Thursday is going to be a massive audience day.
    • I wish the ISU would make each of the sessions shorter… they all last between 3-5 hours (and sometimes 10 hours with the qualifying sessions) and me personally I find it highly annoying and unnecessary, because there’s so many breaks in between (for ice resurfacing it’s understandable, but it doesn’t take the 15-20 minutes long breaks to do it…)
    • The only thing I can think of that has gotten in the way can be geo-restrictions, like the Fridays being available on YouTube, but not the Saturdays and Sundays, preventing new people from really getting into it. Somehow I doubt a new format means it will be made more welcoming for new viewers though...
    • But what can be improved? Broadcasting has for years already been excellent, with races that are quite clear to follow and fine graphics that have all we need. How is "Suzanne Schulting for the Dutch Lions!" instead of "Suzanne Schulting from the Netherlands!" going to make it a better 'broadcast product'?
    • I do think we need a rethink of how short track is packaged as a broadcast product given how little money is involved. Pretty hard to make a living in that sport.
