An OnlyFans model was left sobbing in the dock after she was caught filming sexual acts with a teenage girl and selling the footage on WhatsApp. Ellie Rixon, who was said to have produced the explicit "content" to fund her drug addiction, involved another teenager who was deemed "incapable of consenting" due to her age. Joanne Daniels, prosecuting, told the court the two teenagers had agreed to "share the proceeds generated between them" from the sale of these pictures and videos. It was around five months into this activity that Rixon was said to have learned the girl's age, having previously believed she was also 18, but then "continued to create content with her" "The defendant would record her performing acts or being naked and post this online. [Girl's name] asked the defendant to take them down, but the defendant refused. The distribution can only be evidenced on WhatsApp and not on OnlyFans." The now 20-year-old was seen to be in tears as Ms Daniels outlined how the starting point for production of category A indecent images of children, as per the Sentencing Council's guidelines, is one of six years, with a range of four to nine years. One crying woman in the public gallery had to be consoled by a second at this stage before saying "f*** off", prompting Judge Neil Flewitt KC to tell her: "Just calm down a moment. She is not getting a sentence anything like that."

the Earth suddenly stopped rotating.
We already have the first part solved. When a car that have an energy and will meet a wall it'll splatter. Going from a 1k speed to 0 un an instant.
But what if the car was a size of the Moon. If that'd be a solid cement wall 50m thick. The Moon would barely notice.
So what kind of object and an energy would we need to stop the Earth spinning instantaneously.
Speed on a surface wouldn't be a problem.
The Earth would be no more than a car.

For anyone living in low-lying areas, this would be correct, especially so along the coastlines.
Anyone that makes it to inland high ground should be relatively safe from the flooding. Their next big problem would be having the means to survive long-term.

@Vermillion-Rx as a post scriptum to my previous reply. try something out for the first few days if you muster the courage to stop drinking. In short, eat a lot of sweets.
The long thing - a thing I learned from AA is that a lot of recovering alcoholics crave sweets - chocolate, sugary bars, cakes, you name it, sugary shit. Leaving aside the fact that you're changing one vice for another, this craving is not so random: alcohol acts similar to sugar in some ways once you ingest it and it breaks down in your body, and your body becomes accustomed to getting a lot of "sugar". In other sources I've read that it lowers your blood sugar. But whatever angle you look at it, once you stop the alcohol ingestion, your body will notice that it lacks sugar, and you WILL crave it.
This happened to me as well, I still get these cravings. I particularly like chocolate sweets (chocolate bars, Snickers, wafers, lava cakes, the like).
Your body also became accustomed to the unnatural high dopamine hits from alcohol and, in short, this is what keeps you going back to it, so in a way you will mimic this with the aforementioned sugary treats, albeit probably at a much smaller scale. But try it out before actually getting these cravings. Think of it as a preemptive strike. I would've tried it if I'd known this. The next time you are craving alcohol eat your favorite cake instead, and eat it fully. In the end it's these dopamine spikes that are causing the addiction, whatever the medium might be.
In retrospect, I realized that while drinking I generally did not eat anything with sugar, but on the times when I did gave myself a sugary treat before drinking something, I did not feel the same need to drink alcohol. Don't expect miracles though.
You might replace one vice with another, but I think being addicted to sugar for a while is way better than being addicted to alcohol. Make sure this doesn't worsen your psychotic episodes if you have them though, I don't know the relationship between bipolar disorder and sugar, but I can only assume it's not a good one. And check your blood sugar regularly.
Of course, this alone won't work as a substitution. I can not stress it enough to check in with your psychiatrist, no matter what.
