Yikes.

Good catch.

I was checking up because it said “reportedly” and I thought it would be really easy to check to see of those things happened, and was just in the process of looking for the NBC story.

Not guilty makes way more sense. 

While obviously we don’t know the exact specifics of what actually happened here, it was pretty telling that everyone who knew or worked with him was immediately ready to accept it as fact because of all of their experiences dealing with him and his history of behavior everywhere he went. The number of stories that…

I mean, there’s still all that horrific shit of him sliding into underage girls DMs and telling them they’re hot jailbait.

I want Wrestling Buddies skins, I basically had them all as a kid and practiced German Suplexes over and over

Well, time to get angry at me.

“Editors? What are those?”

Well, it came from James Cameron, and James Cameron is always happy to sing the praises of James Cameron.

Every person you’ve ever hated in your entire life?

You don’t even mention the worst part: It’s a chair coded with the same sitting animations as any other chair, sized so that any race (including the giant male roegadyn) can sit on it, just like any other chair. Which means lalafells, whom it is supposedly designed for, perch awkwardly on the end of it like any other…

Obviously not every single disabled person has problems with Family Guy, but there is a sizable part of the community that thinks Seth MacFarlane is ableist, and makes particularly cruel jokes towards them. Again, I’m not judging either way, and I’m not disabled, I just know that that is A THING.

Love and acceptance? That show is nothin but potshots at every possible target from every possible angle.

The thing is, you don’t even have to tell them. The US especially has literal databases filled with names, addresses, facial scans and other data and stop sex workers of all kinds at the border, denying them entry on grounds of “moral terptitude”. The UK has started doing the same.

It’s not new. Sex workers have…

I told [the officer] everything

Yeah, I would have just lied. I know she shouldn’t have to but it is what it is. 

Considering the direction the US seems to want to go, good luck getting all that legislation changed! I assume the laws that are in place make zero differentiation between “sex worker” and “prostitute”, hence the outcome.

My stories are old but my five years at Babbages in North Riverside, IL(near west Suburb of Chicago) gave me a ton. I never had a gun pulled on me but I did have a knife a few times. Also we had at least one fist fight a year break out during the holidays. Those were the days. The very dangerous days.
