Have you read Neil Gaiman’s Whatever Happened to the Caped Crusader? Because I’d love to hear your thoughts on its message about the many lives of these heroes in the context of your rejection of a writer rewriting (or in this case really just adding to) the set-dressing of a hero without altering the foundational…

Your post and this scene reminds me of, what I thought was Morrison’s crowing moment of brilliance in his Batman run, when Bruce revisits the “I Shall Become a Bat” scene from Miller’s “Year One” and completely flipped over the significance of that scene without changing a single thing, only shifting focus of the…

Rivera was going to send an email to Adam Schefter announcing the punishment, but he couldn’t find his laptop.

I was actually talking about this with someone today as we were watching the game. The Chiefs, Smith and Reid might play, at times, non-flashy football and might not be breaking some fantasy statistics, but they win. They consistently rise to the occasion when required and the team has done basically a turn-around…

Note to Chiefs haters: Yes, once again, the game would have been different if one little thing had gone the other way.

“Falcons lose on go-ahead TD” is my 2016 NFL Moment Of The Year

No, we actually changed the constitution and put Barack back in for another 26 years.

It’s funny because children were abused!

that’s fucking disgusting. I hate these types of people and they really have zero clue how fucking hard it is to actually come forward or to describe being abused in that manner. I was abused for years as a very small child (like pre-school age) and it took me until I was 29 to even describe in the most basic detail…

The English really need to take a lesson from America.

Its a huge problem in Hollywood with child agents, casting directors, etc.

In addition to what Zombie Cucumber said, organizations like football clubs, churches, schools, etc. often care more about looking bad than about the welfare of the children involved and so will actively suppress or ignore evidence and complaints. See: Jerry Sandusky and a million other examples.

Gymnastics, wrestling, and football as well..and then of course, boarding schools, camps, churches, boy scouts, etc. for the non-athletically inclined.

Basically the ‘70s and ‘80s were a breeding ground for child abuse in the UK across multiple fronts - football, media, care homes and hospitals, the Catholic Church (as mentioned) - and the normalisation of child abuse was so complete that only now do adult victims feel like they can talk about it. Jimmy Savile had to …

“Raping boys? What’s the problem?”

Often, the victims think no one will believe them, usually because the rapist tells them so. Canadian junior hockey has seen this same thing. US Swimming, too.

Yes, 100%. Because that’s how economies fucking work.

The White Working Class (Peace Be Upon Them) hates political and financial insiders. It’s why they reelected their incumbent Republican Reps and Senators.
