Anything can happen and even people you actually know can surprise you.

It might just be AGT inviting a guest on promising that everyone loves them but just doing it to make fun of them, which is a common practice on AGT and other reality shows. And they are trying to make a bigger deal out of it because Tyra touched their daughter.

Yawn. Plenty of people get humiliated on these shows. The expectation of privacy here is less than zero, your expectation is that what you do will be broadcast to the entire nation. “Free Speech” n all that, includes criticizing things you don’t like.

This is an attempted Banks robbery.

Yeah I am inclined to give Tyra the benefit of the doubt at the moment. It takes a certain kind of famewhore to not only go on a reality show, but to then do an act based on the birth of their child on said reality show.

humiliated” her daughter on set and “physically manipulated and abused” her, too.

More to the point, are they really trying to tell us that this took place in front of them and they did nothing, although it was “obviously” horrible for their child?

That’s why you’re THERE.

WE can speculate all we want to (and we will), but - depending on this couple’s familiarity with the ‘real world’ of show biz - it seems like there were misunderstandings (or plain old ignorance) about how things work on this type of show. That’s one of the problems with these “reality-based” forms of entertainment.…

I don’t know if I believe this - TyTy is often horrible but I don’t get her being physically abusive to a child.

Too soon?

So I avoided Mad Men like the plague (a show about awful white men being awful? No fanks) so I had little exposure to Elisabeth Moss before Handmaid’s Tale other than knowing she married and divorced the Portlandia guy and is a Scientologist.

She’s a scientologist! I still can’t get over that lol

Not exactly. Not every mass killing is terrorism. Terrorism has a political motive. For instance, if multiple people are killed in gang violence, that’s not terrorism. It may seem like a meaningless or semantic distinction right now, but believe me, it makes a HUGE difference in terms of what groups get classified as…

I can’t recall one actually happening in recent history

Hey Comey, it could have been worse:

If it weren’t so fucking horrifying, this shit would be hilarious..

The question now is did Pence know? Or was he willfully  ignorant? I’m leaning towards the former. Either should have serious repercussions I’d hope.

My first thought was, “Great, so how long until Putin/someone buys this guy off?”
