I was discussing this with a lawyer friend and I enjoy that catch 22. I didn’t realise how much his history could be raked over as prosecutor as opposed to defendant and the idea is most pleasing.

Yes, he could, assuming what we think we know is correct. But as a lawyer, that’s not a case I’d want to litigate. For starters, if indeed there was a rape, that would supersede the NDA. You can’t use NDAs to hide crimes.
God bless Terry Crews. Sometimes the most important thing you can do is to tell your truth so someone else can know that they’re not the only one.
I mean, unfortunately he DID get away with it, which is exactly the thing that perpetuates this kind of vicious, demeaning harassment. Even now, Crews understands that he can’t name names. So, thus far, no consequences for appalling treatment of another human being. The only way it changes is if we force those…
It is becoming crystal clear that this behavior in Hollywood is so common that this person thought he could go up to a man who could clearly kick his ass and grab his privates AND get away with it. He probably knew that Terry was aware of how it would look (240 lb black man beats up Hollywood honcho.... like he said…
I’m also in awe of Terry speaking out, I really hope this encourages more to come forward, if this ex football player macho man can come forward, so can you, there seems to be this narrative that being assaulted means you’re weak.
These cases always make me so uncomfortable. Yes, we should be careful not to discourage the accuser or put her to a standard that is never required of other crimes. And that’s easy to do when there’s no apparent motive. But here we have an easy target (black and rapper) who is also very famous and rich. There may be…
“U think the victim is lying”
It’s remarkable (and telling) that Megan didn’t bring up Olivia Nuzzi.
That’s a ridiculous thing to say. The entirety of these comments just shows how reactionary and caustic humanity is.
His books were pretty inoffensive, weren’t they? I mean, his ads were of-their-time racist and his editorial cartoons were brutal, but what slipped into his stuff for kids?
Probably not Da Vinci. If the piece turned out to be him, it’d be worth a hell of a lot more to the Condé Museum’s collection than if it were student work, so it kind of behooves them to create this story if at all possible.
Wasn’t he into men?
Lots of people paint nudes without being horny, it helps a lot when learning to draw. That said, from what I understand most of the evidence suggests Da Vinci was gay further removing horneyness as a reason in this case.
Ya know, this is my town, and while I give kudos to Ms. Soiero for bouncing this “gift” back to She Who Is In The Country Illegally and Can Grift With the Finest, I do not understand the hating on Dr. Seuss. I can see that some of the cartoons he drew for the War Department used stereotypes and racist images. But,…
She doesn’t seem to know Dr Seuss’ writing very well. “The Sneetches” is a commentary on racism, and one of my favourites of his for that reason. He wasn’t afraid to tackle important issues, presenting them in a way that children could appreciate and internalise. See also: “The Lorax,” which was a stark warning about…
It is possible? Possibly. What’s more likely is that she seized this opportunity to air her political views in a thinly veiled “what’s best for the children” exhortation and then tacked on the Suess jab, maybe not realizing it would come back to bite her on the ass.
Small 6-Year-Old Child: Can I have Cat in the Hat?
I liked and agree with the points she made but there was no need to shit on Dr. Seuss to refuse the books. As the article states, her excellent points lose their punch because she chose to add that Seuss is a tired cliché. I read somewhere else (Washington Post I guess) that the school district said she doesn’t have…
