Coulda ended worse...

OORRRR there were lots of people drugging and raping women back in the ‘70s and those women were also afraid to step forward because of fear of being shamed and disbelieved?

It’s seen as a smoking gun because it is one. Cosby has previously denied fucking around on his wife. He positioned himself as a sort of moral arbiter of manhood, and pushed himself off on the world as a universal father figure. His leaked deposition makes it clear that he is in no way a man of moral superiority, and…

If it’s true they called quaaludes ‘thigh openers’ at the Playboy Mansion back in the 70s where Cosby used to hang out, I hope this is the tip of the iceberg and every one of the other celebrity rapists you know are out there get exposed.

Yeah, “just leave” is pretty shitty advice. I had a job that I grew tired of dealing with boss’ bullshit and starting looking elsewhere. It took me two years of sending resumes to get even calls and only one real offer, which I took. Then I got there and it was worse almost from Day 1. I spent the better part of a…

Google though. don’t be evil my ass. It’s not like they don’t have resources to throw at workplace dynamic problems. If they are not succeeding in diversifying their workforce, it is a lack of will.

I go through a metric shit ton of Costco-brand lactase pills. They work- I still can’t really drink milk, but I can eat soft cheeses again. The problem I run into is that people think I’m lying and give me “surprise dairy”- as in, I ask if there’s dairy in this, they say no, and 15 minutes later I’m digging through my…

Yes, yes we are. I mean really Adam shouldn’t complain since we COULD be talking about that other thing and why Jez and Gawker main are silent and have been for hours.

It’s been done.

Princess Leia bikini is the focus of many male and female fantasies over the years. You can’t put a woman in an outfit like that on screen, as a “sex slave,” and get huffy when people parody it.

Okay, someone explain this. How does one watch videos on the internet without Flash? I thought Flash was essential to watch all the ***tubes and such. I don’t like or dislike flash, I download it because I thought I had to.

And the jumping in with a lie detector test?! Very Maury.

what the heck is going on here

I just brought these little guys home Friday, and they slept on the couch Friday night, but with me last night. I woke up to not only a nose boop, but happy chirping and licking my nose while the other one kept pawing my hand. After five months without a cat this is the happiest Sunday morning in recent memory. I…

This happens a lot in female dominated spaces, the guys get some kind of special cookie just for daring to enter feminine spaces and not being hostile. It drives me nuts, because on the other hand any woman who dares enter a male dominated space gets shouted over and marginalized right away.

For women working in science, there is no surprise here. Then if those women do get hired they are paid less, promoted less, and treated differently. I am sick of hearing that we don’t have enough skilled scientists in this country. We’d have more if the women weren’t invisible.

This sort of study has also shown gross bias in cases where two otherwise identical resumes have names that suggest ethnicity or race(i.e. John and Jamal).

As a fellow Canadian, you embarrass me.

Like Dottie Sandusky, her whole life is built around her husband’s fame and money. To admit he was terrible is to admit she was terrible.
