My mom tried to talk to me about this last night and I just.....kind of exploded with more rage than I thought I had about this. She was like ‘have you heard of this?’ and I was like ‘MOM WHERE THE FUCK WERE YOU FOR MY LIFE BETWEEN 15-23'. The ‘white knight’ behavior is the most condescending, transparent,…

Even if these men had girlfriends, they would still be terrible because they don’t see women as humans with their own agency. They don’t even want girlfriends. They want slaves with no opinions or thoughts of their own.

God sometimes I’m like this whole internet thing was a huge fucking mistake.

Yeah, the term “incel-tier” girlfriend seems sort of like a contradiction in terms. It’s like he’s celibate even if he’s having sex if the woman he’s having sex with doesn’t meet some random standard.

The sense of entitlement incels have is mind-boggling. Do women sometimes feel lonely or attracted to people that don’t like them back? Yes, but we pick up a box set of whatever show we are into and maybe some wine and chocolate. What we don’t do is pick up a gun because we think we deserve that person and go on a…

The most disturbing thing about that post is that it sounds like it was written by an older guy (at least late teens or older) and not a fellow 14 year old. How is it that a man doesn’t know or care how frightening he might appear to a girl like that?

Jesus Christ why are these people not being hounded by the FBI like BLM is? They’re fucking terrifying and definitely dangerous.

I love the term “incel-tier girlfriend”. For these guys, it’s not even about not having sex with women - it’s not having sex with the right women. The kind of women they deserve to bone. And they feel so entitled to this that if they don’t get it, they think the best corrective action is to murder random people.

heh

I think it’s more that our popular culture has conditioned us to view handsome, stylish, well-spoken men as villains. Partially because underdogs make better protagonists, partially because we’re steeped in performative masculinity and low-key homophobia. He’s also a lawyer on an apparent path to history and a…

Avanetti was in the court room when the Hannity reveal was made, so I believe his use of the phrase “in open court” has real gravitas.

The ‘offending’ prayer:

Support wild[ly valid] assertions that he is your boyfriend, but am wondering what Michael Avanetti needs to do to graduate from “sort-of-sexy” to just plain sexy? Like damn those are some high beauty standards, Megan. Be a shame if we gave men a complex trying to live up to them.

It’s really common for victims of sexual violence to continue sleeping with their offender as a way to normalize the experience in their minds and give themselves the perceived power or rationale that that they had agency in what happened to them. Like Amy, I was assaulted in my sleep but with someone I didn’t even…

I’ve seen her do this bit in person and it’s amazing. She points to the ladies in the audience and is like “we’ve all been graped, right ladies?” and you just hear every woman in the room like “yyyyyyup.” And then she let’s it sit for a second and says something to the dudes. I don’t remember what exactly she said,…

I had consensual sex with the guy who raped me. I didn’t want to admit to myself that the dude I thought was a great guy was a rapist. And I bought his weak excuse, because I wanted to believe he was a great guy. Women don’t want bad guys, we want good guys. We want good guys so much, we’ll try to convince ourselves…

Both the Sacramento DA and the count sheriff are up for re-election this year. With all the (deserved) blow back from the murder of Stephon Clark, I’m not surprised at all that they closed a big case like this.

It had languished as a cold case. Her investigation and questioning brought renewed interest to the case. It isn’t uncommon.

Maybe you should read the book that centers around the women whose murders went unsolved for decades. and the writer who vowed to solve them. Seems as if she managed to do just that...posthumously.

What? This case IS about the crimes committed. You mean this article? Cause there wouldn’t be article in the first place if apparently “this guy’s wife” hadn’t spent a lot of time working on this case and helped the police. You can’t ignore the fact that the police had nothing for years and years then it comes out the…
