OMG, so right. I’d be interested in hearing your approximate age range, because I have noticed that older women, like myself, seem to have a firmer grasp on these kinds of “back off!” strategies.

He responded, “Well some women are into being dominated. Don’t me so close-minded.”

Which I believe I mentioned explicitly in my comment. You may not understand it based on your own experience. But based on mine, where I ended up drawing the same conclusion as the author, let me assure you that my opinions about what happened to me (and what happened here) are valid. I don’t feel like I was raped…

Um, I’m one of those women, but I went to girl’s school for middle and high school. Maybe that helped. The couple of times guys tried to coerce, intimidate, or force me into having sex with them, I either: 1) laughed in their faces, or 2) hit them really hard. Some guys have trouble taking “no” for an answer.

Yeah I don’t mean to give you a hard time. I think he was careful about his wording with the Caitlyn Jenner joke and I don’t think it was offensive. I think the fact that he made the joke during the golden globes was a sign of respect. I don't like seeing him being bashed for this because it sets a shitty precident…

I usually agree with, support, and enjoy Jez outrage. I stand with Caitlyn too, but I don’t get this one. If these jokes had been told by Amy Schumer, I suspect no one here would be making any noise about it. But I could be wrong.

You have no idea how many times my fiance and I make this joke around the house. I don’t know why we loved it so much ... but we did! This weekend it snowed in Illinois ... and he when he was walking back from wheeling the trash can out on Sunday ... I was standing in the garage looking at the snow and hearing the icy…

Just had a horribly dark thought. A lot of the crews working on the cruises may not be able to AFFORD to leave, at least not until the ship gets back to their home country. So you’re stuck. Working on the boat. With an unplanned pregnancy you don’t want. Maybe desperately finding an emergency abortion in some country…

Alan Cumming Reacts To Things! It should be a fucking show.

A few jobs ago, I worked as an editor for a company that ran short educational courses for professionals, and when the Mel Gibson “sugar tits” thing happened, I had to do an emergency revision of a course that used him in a few examples. Still kind of amused about that.

Nothing for Fargo?

I can’t comment on the awards because I haven't seen them yet but that’s really disappointing to hear. His humour can be really close to the bone but usually, it’s all about making a point & one in support of the “underdog” (I hate that expression).

Fuck you. Ricky Gervais is a god send compared to all of these stale cock strokers. Maybe Anne Hathaway and Franco are more up your alley.

Did Gervais go on a racist tirade I’m not aware of? That’s a lot of venom towards him to just not find him funny.

Seriously, the political jumping jacks that those motherfuckers have done to convince everyone that unions are some kind of freedom-stealing boogeyman is ridiculous.

I just cried through the first chapter. This is promising.

This seems like the right way to do a reading resolution, rather than a negative resolution:“I’m not going to read white men” instead a positive one: “I’m going to read books that I can learn from and discuss them with others who also want to learn.”

As someone who did once have an intruder break into my home - while I was there and asleep - I can tell you from experience that there’s probably only a small chance a gun would really help you in that scenario. The criminal has all the advantage there - they know they’re breaking into your house way before you do,…

I’m not fearful of intruders, either, but to be on the safe side, I invested in a home security system. I sleep very well at night, and there’s zero chance of shooting family members or pets accidentally. And as for the whole home intruder scenario: how many people have these assholes offended that they’re as worried…
