The same people who say “get over it” when classrooms full of children are slaughtered are now combing through social media posts to make sure everyone thinks this specific instance of gun violence is the one we need to burn the Constitution over.

Especially given how deranged the MAGA folks are. That said Biden is also right that we need to cool down politics, there is NO room these days for a calm honest discussion it’s very much if you say you like hamburgers, well why do you HATE hot dogs.  It’s all absurd and stupid.

Sorry but it’s not “hate speech” to wish a fascist was dead. It’s banal and Black is a douchebag for reacting like this.

The network coverage of the convention tonight is pretty disgusting. Goddamn ABC (so not even Fox or something) is fawning all over him, asking their reporter who talked to him about him in hushed, reverential tones, as though he’s not still an evil disgusting menace to the world.

My full legal name!

Maybe we should just: “Get over it.” AKA the thing Republicans say whenever a mas shooting happens, while wearing pins that look like AR-15's and posing with them for Christmas cards. I know it is technically an “assassination attempt,” but it feels a consequence of the laws.

Yes, what Electric Danette Sheep said!

This article is loaded with great news but the best thing of all is NO MORE GODDAMNED KINJA!!!!!!! 

The return of a proper AV Club is giving me a proper AV Chub.

I got a Week of August 12 notification for this?

Regardless, it’s weird to ignore the substance of the whole comment to focus on a goofball bit of obvious hyperbole in the very last, very speculative paragraph.

The issue at hand isn’t whether he’s richer than Croesus or whatever, the issue at hand is that he’s acted like a creepy sex-pest in even the kindest, most…

Touche!

A fine, fine comeback. Bravo!

I bow to your clearly superior rhetorical skills. Your trenchant bon mot has laid me low, so incisive and devastating it was.

Ugh. Gaiman’s relationships have always been weird, so I wouldn’t entirely be surprised. Amanda Palmer’s “Whakanewa” suddenly seems to be saying a lot more than we initially thought.

He’s always reminded me of that charming guy everyone knew at least one of in their early 20's,; the guy who stumbles from relationship…

“How does a 60 year old have the libido to have sex with the 23 year old nanny?”

“I’m thinking his next move is a tearful video apology where he does his “storyteller voice” and explains because of his autism he “sometimes crosses boundaries.”

I’ve never read him but I’m aware of him and have read about him and I agree. But then I’ve been in creative writing programs that hosted well-known writers and a good number of the male authors didn’t even hide their intentions while visiting. Sometimes the young objects of their lust kept it quiet later, sometimes…

He suggested that Gaiman would blame autism* for his actions, in the same way that Mel Gibson blamed alcoholism for his racist tirades/domestic abuse.  He didn’t imply that autistic people are all rapists.

I’m not saying the overlap is in and of itself evidence of wrongdoing, but people with similar proclivities who run in the same social circles (like, say, famous comic book writers) tend to share with each other.

Most couples are monogamous. Those in open relationships are not the norm. They “deviate” from the norm if you will. In fact, by defnition, they’re sexual deviants.

Scarlett alleges that Gaiman assaulted her within hours of their meeting in his New Zealand residence in February 2022, when she was hired as a nanny for his child. The two apparently shared a bath where, according to Gaiman, they only “cuddled” and “made out” with consent.”
