". . .in Germany we don't read something into something else."

beautifully said Malady. I regularly equate addiction to drunk driving. many people have "tried" drugs but got lucky that it didn't "take" because their brain chemistry is different than that of others. I (for one) have definitely driven under the influence when I should not have, however have been fortunate enough…

I know a lot of drug addicts because my sister is a drug addict and that's who she hangs out with. Nearly every single one had something fucked up happen to them or they were in the throes of some mental disability. Each one of them has said to me : "Don't you EVER do this shit." Not one was like "crack is brilliant,…

Fucking THANK YOU for saying this. So much.

Thanks for all of this, very well put.
I too went looking for anything I could find about Fassbender and the thing I come away with is that she accused him of breaking her nose during a festival that they were attending. There are accounts of them being there as well as photos and she looks fine. There were also…

I guess dating WOC = fetishizing?
I have no idea if Fassbender did the things he's accused of, but I do find it interesting that just because he's accused, he now has the stigma that he's guilty. Yes many women do not report domestic violence, that doesn't mean that every time it's reported, it's true. Why is it…

Make room in the coffin for me, sister (or brother ... I don't know).

There's the article.

So I'll say this, I enjoyed her work in Punisher: War Zone. If you ever hear her on the How Did This Get Made podcast about the movie, she realized she had to go balls out crazy with it and she did, it just sucks that they decided to flush the movie down the toilet and never really market it.

I don't think I ever saw Jeremy Brett smile, how incredibly handsome that man was.

Yeah, I think you really have to stretch to reach that interpretation. Then again, the OP also states that this is "probably the only justifiable feminist post on this site so far," so it's not like it's not clear that he either has a giant issue with feminism, or is entirely unclear on what it is. Or both. I wouldn't…

I find it odd it isn't always, or almost always, mentioned either. A lot of the titles mention the particular acts/pairings/fetishes in the subtitle. I have even heard that in erotica it is best to define your niche as narrowly as possible to best find and define an audience. Not only are triggers a concern, but I…

Wow, that's a really useful gif.

Quite honestly, I think some people are threatened by the notion that appearance, which they work really hard to get/maintain, is not everything. I think they feel threatened if a person simply does not care about being overweight or chooses not to spend hours in the gym or eat a restricted diet in order to get a…

Right now my Facebook is blowing up with two sentiments:

no.

So we are just going to pretend that France never had a history of slavery and colonialism (in the Caribbean and West, Central, East and North Africa), and that this use of blackface arose out of nowhere? Ok, whatever. Slavery and the dehumanization of Black people in cultural representations are not particular to the…

But that's my point. We want visibility for ALL women, right? However, pretending that a plus-size lingerie store asking their customers to share their pictures is being hard on fit women just because they use the world regular to define non-models and those specific women happen to be plus-size seems disingenuous.
