The victim is never the real victim is it? Tell me more about the pain of those poor employs.

Do you feel the need to react with this much skepticism whenever someone claims to have been the victim of theft? Because critical thinking?

"...a white and/or male scientist likely wouldn't have had to face this sort of discrimination in the first place."

so.......... what is your complaint? I'm really not following you. If you accept she was assaulted, why are you attacking her 'victimhood'? The company refused to take action against her assailant. You'd better believe I'd be on the phone in a heartbeat to a lawyer about suing that company. "Public shaming" thru…

I'm trying to understand your point. Guy assaulted woman, on the job and on camera. Company refuses to take any action (we'll just ignore whether or not they cancelled her membership over this). Are you seriously proposing that she shouldn't do *anything* because any action on her part will possibly affect the jobs of…

Companies are made of people.

Well, as someone who knows the victim. Worked out with her and knows her quite well, I'm going to say that you do not know what you are talking about. Also, you do not understand libel.

hey, megan was assaulted—but she wasn't raped. she's reached out to friends to help remind people of that on here—conflating the two doesn't help her personally or politically.

That's bullshit. So no company should ever be held responsible for their wrongdoing (including the wrongdoing of their employees, which legally, they are) because they (the company) might cut jobs or pay?

So what's the alternative? Not punishing a company that breaks laws or protects employees who, I don't know, assault someone on camera? Innocent people may get unfairly punished via cut hours or the loss of their job over this, but that could have been avoided if the company terminated the employee the moment they saw…

Yeah. I was actually very recently separated from my boyfriend/husband of 8.5 years and not used to living alone. It was really scary.

I was also reading "The Gift of Fear" at the time, which actually gave me the courage to say "no" and keep saying "no" and to trust my gut implicitly (that hug I mentioned that he tried…

so............ we should feel bad for the guy that's going to lose his job for assaulting a customer? da fuck?

Rex Reed might get angry about her. Again.

jesus. thank god you trusted your gut and didn't let him in again!

Smart move on your part to not trust him, and to not let him into your home after sending the e-mail. Even if he wasn't going to hurt you (which we'll never know), there was no reason for you to trust a person acting that creepy.

This is one of those issues that have two different covers. They released this one and one with Reese Witherspoon. Is Reese covered up in a coat? Of course not, she's wearing a skin-tight little black dress.

So weird! I had to look to see if this was the 24 Hour Fitness that I went to 10 years ago. (it's not)

10 years ago, I bought a gym membership to 24 Hour Fitness in LA. I got a package of private training sessions, and they paired me with this guy who seemed a little weird at first (kept talking about how exercise…

I'm a fan of using grated cauliflower in place of rice (food processor grater plate FTW), but I think that qualifies as a different preparation entirely.

Yeah, I like the graininess, myself.

If you want to get lazy on the mashing process and just serve the cauliflower with a much grainier texture, it also makes a pretty damn tasty substitute for rice. It works best with sweeter foods like teriyaki, but is good enough with most things.
