“makes zero sense.”
Part of the mental gynmastics offered by PSU homers (and even Paterno himself in statements before his death) revolved around Paterno essentially being a doddering old man by the time he was made “aware” of the allegations, and was “confused” and “unsure” what to do with this information.
It’s unfathomable to think how much damage was caused by the 36 additional years that man was able to continue to abuse children. Just leaves you speechless.
Burn in hell, Joe.
Will this finally stop people from asking for that fucking statue back? Let’s just melt it down, closest replication to where he is if there’s any thing as justice.
So because she has an album showing the journey of going through some very human and natural reactions to trust being broken in a marriage, it is drama? You think referring to a woman using her music as catharthis, and being honest about how she felt as “drama” isn’t ingrained misogyny? She put him on blast with many…
Also as a side note I feel like the word *drama* gets used in a really gendered way, specifically as dismissive of women’s voices, feelings, experiences.
Of course you can be! But equating them is a little bit unfair. Beyonce was in a marriage: she didn’t involve “herself” in this infidelity drama, she is expressing what happened to her marriage.
Right, zoos are just the main groups actively involved in animal conservation. But what do you really care about that? Oh right, you don’t care.
And here is our mascot.
Time for the Cat Memes!
I took many. I don’t claim to be a business genius (and the profs of my keystone business classes would probably agree with me), but what you said just made my point. I know you think you just owned me because you mistakenly thought I was implying that Ford was the first to bring automobiles to market. Ford and Tesla…
I’ve always considered myself a car enthusiast. I like lightweight cars that let me row my own gears and I think people who pay the depreciation tax for new cars are idiots. I wouldn’t consider saving the environment a priority. The Model 3 is heavy, doesn’t have gears, and won’t be available second hand until…
Yup, there’s always some excuse so we can’t point out how shitty men are to women. Oh, but he is such a great sports player! Oh, but he writes so well! Oh, he is too young/old to know better!
I mean, how in the world, other than being an unmitigated asshole, did he not name his own wife as an influence. She was my first thought as well (right before Didion, Hannah Arendt, Margaret Bourke-White [photojournalist, but still inspiring], Nora Ephron and Frances Fitzgerald). She may not be a writer per se, but…
Holy Shitsnacks! Margaret Atwood and Antonia Fraser? Perhaps the folks at BU should have been interviewing his wife instead.....
That is rich. My journalism professor at my community college actually went out of his way to point out how many pioneering journalists were women! Like Nellie Bly (one of the earlier examples of undercover journalism, exposing insane asylums), Ida Tarbell (pioneer of progressive journalism), and Ida B Wells (an…
Not surprised. Just surprised he admitted it AND dug that hole deeper with all the additional bullshit about what women write and why.
Hi, my name’s Jonathan Franzen and I really don’t see what the uproar is all about.
