so…you’re saying the family was “broadcasting its life in mass media” prior to the murder, and that’s why this child is dead?

My sympathies for what you’ve had to endure. My only hope is that someday soon, as a culture, we’ll realize that this behavior is not acceptable, and do more to both prevent it and respond to it in a timely fashion. From your post, it seems that reporting it has helped you a fair amount, so all I can offer is that you…

As a man who has experienced rape, I agree that publicity around these high profile cases is good. In my case it was in the 70s, I was in my mid teens (and naive), helping a family “friend” move to another city. His drug was alcohol, which was new to me and just as incapacitating as anything Cosby used. I remember…

You are brave and awesome. (I felt it was important to say that in light of the idiot troll who has also responded to you. Please ignore him and know that decent people have your back.)

I remember reading about a study of college rapists and they had an average of 6 victims each. Even if victims don’t go to the police, they can still warn other women they know. It will be harder for predators to operate when they develop a bad reputation.

Good for you! And good for your friend too!

I’m a litigator. Sometimes I’ll do oral argument before the Court and think, “shit, that felt like rambling. I bet I sounded so dumb. I must do better next time.” And then I get the transcript back and I’ve spoken eloquently throughout it. Comparatively, I imagine Palin is like “nailed it” after a speech and then…

I got it from Trailer Park Boys. Watch that show enough, and you start using Rickyisms like “worst case Ontario” left and right.

“Hello ladies, you’re looking lovely this evening. Maybe we should all go back to my room...have you ever heard of Settlers of Catan?”

I have a theory that Leonardo DiCaprio doesn’t actually have sex with the huge number of women he brings back to his room, he just really likes board games.

“When you think about going to a party, when you don’t have any models, it’s going to be 90/10, or even greater, male-to-female,” he said. “Adding in some females changes the dynamic quite a bit.”

Wait wait wait.

Can it be activated via the Clapper?

No. People don’t shoot up preschools in the UK. They’ve had gun laws for awhile.

Monica does not wind up with Joey. MONICA DOES NOT WIND UP WITH JOEY.

Maybe they had one of those very sitcom “if we’re both still single when we’re x years old...we’ll get together” deals.

Serena does too if you try to lift her cell phone.

This is a really short sided plan, I mean how is Jennifer Lopez ever going to find love NOW?

all feminists narrow their eyes and tent their fingers, “yes, it’s working”

They sound so cute and nice! Maybe they should replace the Shetland pony in these sorts of activities. Shetland ponies are known assholes.
