This is cute but a Wiccan priestess is not a “witch-hunt” witch. Mary is making a very good point about an ugly historical episode in 17th c. Salem, MA and how that moment differs from our current epidemic of sexual predators. Call me when this priestess can fly on a broomstick or at least become a cat.

So, here is the thing about these guys saying this is a “witch hunt”: witches are not real, but sexual predators ARE REAL.

And Neil Young, (Bob Dylan, Tom Petty, yadda yadda) are? My point: it has never been a prerequisite for rock and roll.

I am really tired of the “he wasn’t ACTUALLY touching her in the photo” defense.

It seems clear from her story that she wanted to avoid the kiss, and that he pushed her beyond what is normally expected and what she indicated she was comfortable with. I’m not an actor but I’m pretty sure tongue isn’t standard in onstage kisses. Also, it’s pretty common for dudes to write hot women into their scenes…

Does it though? I’m not sure I like the whole “players that dump 100s of hours get advantages” thing. People that play the game orders of magnitude greater than average already have a huge advantage in being better practiced.

I think the bigger reason for that is because liberals and progressives don’t vote or run for office. I don’t think embracing sexual predators will do much to fix that, so I think it’s kind of a false dilemma to say that we have to “pick” between winning elections or condemning sexual harassment. It kind of reminds me…

So what is the number of women that have to come forward for you to be believed and force consequences?

I totally get what you’re saying, but on a purely pragmatic level we aren’t going to get to GOP-levels of unity by descending to GOP-levels of depravity.

Roy Moore has been pressured to step down by even his fellow Republicans. Not all of them, this is true, but there is no guarantee he will win this election.

I mean, the GOP has zero fucking morals at all. They just don’t give a shit about anything other than getting & maintaining power. They think they might lose the special election because their monstrous candidate likes to prey on teenagers so they are trying to “suspend” it. They are vile.

So the mistake is in honoring and sticking to principles even when it hurts?

When it comes to sexual assault and harassment, we should be holding up everyone to the same standards, no matter what their political beliefs are. If we let our side off the hook then sexual assault and harassment continues. The reason they persist is because the perpetrators think they can get away with it. The only…

Holding a sexual predator accountable is not “self righteous”, it’s just “righteous”. And NO men don’t get to fondle our breasts as quid pro quo for voting our way.

By “their people” I assume you mean sexual predators?

Who gives a shit

Just to remind you who YOU are, too:

And the ultimate gag, Democrats will either choose this guy or Corey Booker to represent the party in 2020 because of the epidemic of woven pink hats constricting heads in such a way they reset people’s memories every four years.

Wow. Just, wow. The portrait seemed very different from all his other work and I was suspicious. But..... Wow. I found the picture on his Artstation page and he mentioned nothing of it being a photo-realism project or photo study. He just simply spoke of it as his character that he’s creating. It’s the same character…

News flash, asshole: if something this minor makes you decide to “stop being a good person”, you were never a good person. You were never an ally, you were never decent, and you were never not a racist.
