I’m glad to hear it’s not just me. I see the comments in my alerts, but when I click to read them and am taken back to the article, I can’t even find them. I don’t know what the fuck they’re doing, but Kinja and the eternal cycle of being in the greys despite diligently commenting and participating has been an issue…

Literally all you have to do is google “Donald Trump” and “Central Park Five” together. He took out full page ads in the newspaper calling to bring back the death penalty as a direct response to what happened.

I really don’t understand why the UK is so TERFy. Does anyone know why? What on earth is going on over there?

Not just writing under a man’s name, but before she was outed, she had built an entire fake profile as Galbraith being “a former plainclothes Royal Military Police investigator who had left in 2003 to work in the civilian security industry.”

I understand that this is dirtbag, so the flippant tone is expected, but it seems oddly callous and weird to me that you’re treating a situation involving alleged guardianship abuse as a sibling rivalry. If Britney Spears’ testimony is anything to go by, she holds her entire family responsible for the abuse she has…

The lead image looks like a zipper, but the others look like hidden dress hooks to me. But even so, in a show with casual racial intermingling and where racism or colonialism doesn’t appear to exist, the existence of a zipper isn’t really going to take me out. This is a fantasy, not a historical. The setting is window…

Maybe she’ll fuck up. Maybe she’ll be a mess after coming to terms with the fact that her family has abused her and used her as a piggy bank for decades. Maybe she will spend her money on Funkos and fast food.

Why do you think she published under her initials? Why do you think she published under the name Robert Galbraith, instead of simply using another pen name if she wished to keep her identity secret at the time?

It’s possible that she does have a mental illness that impacts her. But to be clear, a conservatorship is still not appropriate, especially when her father (or someone working for him) indicated she had dementia to be granted the conservatorship. And I have serious doubts that someone who supposedly has dementia being…

People with mental illnesses can and do still live out their lives and receive help without being under a guardianship, which is for those with severe cognitive impairments like advanced dementia. The article even laid out other options that should have been considered before making this permanent. That Spears has a…

Yeah, I agree. One of the most harrowing parts of Spears’ testimony was when she spoke about her family. And I definitely feel like she would have been more specific and said “my dad” or “my parents” if she was only speaking directly about them. That she kept saying “my family” and “I want to sue my family” implies a…

I got the impression that a fair number of people were cringing because instead of simply picking up the phone and calling Jensen, he decided to air his grievances on main like an awkward family dinner.

You *are* critiquing her testimony. You’re letting your own biases of bipolar disorder colour your perception of a woman who has experienced over a decade of abuse and exploitation at the hands of her family members. Britney Spears would not be the first person to be exploited by a guardianship system that is rife…

I’m not sure why you seem under the impression that someone who has experienced years of trauma and abuse at the hands of family members—primarily her own father—ought to be able to speak calmly about it for 20 minutes after years of being silenced and gaslit. And that she didn’t articulate her abuse to your…

You clearly have no idea the amount of work and hours go into a live show, especially when she was the one doing the choreography and teaching it to her dancers. You are absolutely fucking insane if you think a Las Vegas residency like hers only requires 15 hours of work per week. Like, to a laughable degree to anyone…

That dress is not appropriate daywear except in LA maybe.

Vile humans throughout history have contributed to charitable causes. One does not negate the other. She’s given money to charity, and her support of transmisist groups and legislation has still led to the violent targeting of a vulnerable minority group. 

Even if you “made it good”, she still makes money off the franchise. So even by not being anywhere near it, she directly benefits from the creation of more media in this world. I understand that this is a hypothetical, but in your list of demands, “Marauder’s prequel” is a hell of a lot more likely than “JKR, stop…

Except that Chrissy would direct message Courtney Stodden, in private, and tell them to kill themself. That is not edgelord, troll humour for the masses. That is private, ghoulish behaviour. And she directed her insults to Stodden for a period of about eighteen months. That is persistent harassment toward an…

I don’t know how to explain this delicately, so I’ll just be blunt: these are mess fetish videos. Some people have a food mess fetish. You can tell by the way these videos emphasise over-handling the food with their hands, the organising of different textures, consistencies and colours of food, and the weird, almost…
