This guy is so fucking busted. He used Instagram to lure kids to the ice cream shop for free ice cream and recruit them.
What. The. Fuck. Please keep us updated.
I am going to echo Maria. I am flabbergasted and appalled!
None of this is on Matilda. In fact, she's a superhero who is saving other kids who might have been afraid to say something. She didn't force him to do what he did, but she's helping to make sure he never does it again.
Part of her anxiety is that she didn't come to us to bust him, she just brought the permission slip for the Presidents Day Weekend camp he pitched to them.
The permission slip thing makes it worse- would some parents just sign thinking it was from the school. It would be bad enough if he just invited them and gave them a brochure! This whole thing is so creepy.
Busting people doesn't mean she has to pop up and say, "A-ha! I've nabbed you, you dastardly devil!" Busting people can mean you just hand information over to other people who are in a better position to do the nabbing. She did the hard work of giving you the slip, even if she had reservations. Otherwise, she could have sat on it and pretended it didn't exist.

This. She doesn't have to be the avenger leading the charge (in fact, I'd say that she *shouldn't* be), but she did help, and that means other kids in her school are going to be safe.
Yes, what Maria & Steph said! Brava, Matilda!!!
Y'all, this is verbatim from the email I just got:
"Graphic Designer (Pay Range %2444,000 to %2457,500)."
Are they paying in Bitcoin, or something?
What even does that pay range MEAN???

CryptoCurrency for CryptoFascists!
%24 is the encoded character for $, so it should be $44,000 to $57,500.
ALSO I fully support David's campaign to drag this guy to hell.
Shrift, I'm both grateful for your explanation and sad it isn't a weirder one.
It's probably more fun to pretend my explanation doesn't exist so we can come up with a currency that would be appealing to Graphic Designers.
