"wanting" is not the same thing as "actually doing". Anger is a normal human feeling, but the society doesn't think muh of people who "cave" to their rages and throw tantrums, or become violent. Laziness is also a normal human feeling, but we don't respect people who refuse to pick up after themselves, pull their own…

Er... If she loved him more, we won't be having this discussion now, would we?

"Romancing The Stone" Sounds more like ths is where The River got its inspiration from?

I first saw this scissors' kick move on Maggie Q's Nikita. It is a seriously badass move.

Is it just me or is io9 snubbing the City of Bones's movie? Lena Headley (Sarah Connor & Cersei Lannister) has just been cast in it. The guy who played Moriarty in Sherlock Holmes & The Game of Shadows was also just cast. It has the potential to be as big as the Hunger Games, at least. Why the radio silence on the…

Lolol

What is up with the shirtless hottie under the happy family poster?

You are brilliant and I would have hearted you if I hadn't already done so the first time.

*slow clap* THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THANK YOU.

Only that is not the argument I'm making. I'm making the 'man in the mirror' argument: 'caring' about an injustice isn't ranting on the Internet about how you love Katie Holmes based on some story about her life you've made up in your head, Caring is making damn sure that you are not guilty of the same injustice…

Whatever helps you sleep at night. (I'm sure the little kids in Ghana that make your sweet, sweet chocolate appreciate the difference.)

The last time I checked, everyone who has an iPad, bought a Tshirt in Walmart, heck even eaten some chocolate has used slave labour. Because the forced labour and child abuse was going on in faraway Congo, Ghana or some sweatshop container in SoCal, doesn't make us less guilty. Perspective.

Not jumping into conclusions = bitchiness? Am I missing something here? Was there some secret interview Katie Holmes gave that I didn't watch?

No, I'm not saying non-physical abuse is not real abuse. There just isn't any evidence (that I can see) that she sufferred either or that she did not suffer either. But getting divorced in Hollywood is the rule, not the exception, so I'm not inclined to assume that she is n abuse survivor, escaping from her husband…

Oh is that how it works? *shrugs* I'm not USian. Maybe there is some nuance here that is going over my head. But being harrassed on the Internet for critical thinking is the nature of the beast. At least both of us found *one* person to agree with us. Don't let it bother you. It doesn't bother me.

Well, I can't argue with that!

What is an OT?

But you are assuming that the divorce is over Scientology and not for the one hundred and one reasons that Hollywood couples get divorced. Is there even any reason to think that her leaving him = her leaving Scientology? The last I heard the kind of Scientology that the celebrity likes of Holmes are exposed to are not…

Thank you so much for this. I don't understand why this is being used as some sort of domestic abuse survivor analogy: Hollywood divorces are the rule, not the exception.

I don't understand why there is this consensus in the comments that Katie Holmes is a "strong" woman for leaving an "abusive" relationship. We have no idea about the particulars about their relationship, whether it was abusive, whether her husband was controlling, how much of an influence Scientology played, nothing…
