One thing can easily be a sign of more to come, especially considering the context of what that one thing is. I am fully aware that being in a successful relationship means putting up with your partner’s shit, I am married now, but the shit pile can only get so high before it tips over.

It’s not love it sounds like dude is desiring so much as sex and the homosocial status of “having that TEN” on his arm.

I sound like I know what the fuck I want and have no reason to put up with what I don’t like.

It depends what order she ranks her love of the different series in. Having Voyager or Enterprise higher on her list than DS9, would be a deal breaker.

One of the most liberating things I learned as a young chap in the world of dating was to discover I could break it off, both verbally and emotionally, with girls at the drop of a hat as soon as I saw something I wasn’t ok with.

Normally I’d say “Get the fuck out of Dodge,” but if this guy is this stupid, I think he deserves to have his bunny boiled.

I was a stay-at-home mom and when I suggested that we give parents with less free time easier ways to contribute everyone looked at me like...WHA?! That’s when I said “nope.” I volunteered on my own terms and mostly chose to volunteer at an animal shelter, which is likely why my kids didn’t get tapped for the gifted…

So constant reboots without calling them reboots...

Until recently, Marvel never rebooted. They used a sliding timeline method and simply ignored anything they wanted to ignore. Anything that was dated was just ignored, with a few notable exceptions (like Cap will always be a WWII solider). Most major events always “happened” while minor things were happily forgotten.…

I’m lost. How many canon DC universe is there? Which universe/earth has bat god and which one has amnesiac Bruce?

And Taylor Swift made art of Katy Perry fucking her over already, you late comer you.

Who the fuck is Ryn Weaver?

Y’all are really dead set as seeing this as some sort of pro-Bowie argument, which is odd b/c my comment deals explicitly and exclusively with the girl-turned-woman at issue.

I think had this been written by anyone other than Jia, it would have been the typical ‘your fave is problematic’ Jez takedown click-baiting bullshit that’s sooooo fucking tiring and pointless. Luckily, Jia wrote it, and she’s the only one here (along with Vargas Cooper - sometimes - but she’s not a regular) who’s…

I also can’t ignore that she still looks back on it as a positive experience and does not define herself as a victim. We don’t get to change the narrative for her. She experienced it, not us.

I agree with this. Yes, it’s a murky subject, but so many people (based on their own personal experience or not), are trying to discredit this woman’s experience and say that they know better than her. When it comes to delicate, intimate situations like this, there are only two people who really know what happened,…

I think it also makes a difference when it comes to assessing her consent. Knowing that she could say no, did say no, and it was accepted without reciprocal pressure put her in a relatively empowered position.

Yeah, to me that detail is important. It shows she was confident enough in the situation to say no, and he was respectful enough to accept it. That’s not something that can be said about every groupie/rock star encounter, you know?

“I also can’t ignore that Lori had already said no to David once, and had every reason to think it’d be safe to do so again.” <— Bingo.

I cringed when I saw the headline. I was prepared for this to be a “Your Fave is Problematic”-style takedown of Bowie, and I honestly wasn’t sure I wanted to read it. I clicked anyhow and was pleasantly surprised.
