“In the future, you can find this information here:...” never works... I send a link over and over and they still keep asking... next time I’m going to be like... “Bitch! Bookmark it!”

SO YOU’RE SAYING I HAVE A CHANCE NOW

Indeed.

Amen. At 14, I would have actually loved it if an adult took me aside to talk to me about harassment and assault—because it was already happening to me and I had no words for it and no validation for my anger at it. If anything, I’d err on the side of bringing up the topic too early.

It’s why you’ve got some of them worried about a “witch hunt” i.e. the investigation going from Weinstein to Hollywood in general.

Hollywood, New York, London, Paris....

I hate how Kim gets all righteous when she’s called out.

IT’S SPELLED D-O-W-N-I-E. And it’s not intense fandom - the man was a national treasure far above the people that are usually called national treasures. He was a genius and he was taken at the height of his artistic abilities, and he was a great human being and a fantastic, unapologetic Canadian who always worked to…

I see a lot on here about people are perplexed at how successful Pink still is. Australia fricken loves her, we consider her one of us and this is why...

Yup... This actually reminds me of an event I’d forgotten from my own military service... One of the benefits of military service is the MAC flight. Service members and their families can sign up on a waiting list to potentially catch a military aircraft going anywhere the military flies, for very little cost. The…

A) Jezebel had a full page piece in support of Lupita’s op-ed within hours of it coming out.

B) The Weinstein response hit sometime late yesterday and got the low billing it deserves, in the next available Dirt Bag. Especially considering it hit right before the weekend and we know they switch over to night/weekend…

What’s wrong with Seth?

Right. A lot of people think my dad is a cool dude because he did stuff like go to Woodstock and he can talk politics for hours. A cool dude to have a coffee with and talk about the failings of the DNC does not = a caring and attentive father. And I have to imagine that’s what Frances and other children of…

Yeah, the whole heroin addict-rock star thing works out fine for their audiences, not so much for their kids. I imagine she had to do a lot of work to come to grips with his “legendary awesomeness” vs. her childhood’s reality. I say this as a huge Nirvana fan and as an addiction therapist.

This sounds like a none-too-subtle middle finger to all the pearl-clutchers out there.

This definitely seems like a glaring omission. I loved George’s “yup, I’m a slut!” public persona.

George pretty much announced he was gay when he filmed the Club Tropicana video. The only think I can’t understand is how Andrew is straight.

I found that you can be brief and get the point across, it is a bit of a skill but doable. Some people over explain shit, usually to cover for a lack of talent or drive to do work.

You should also bcc an email address you have control over so there is an electronic copy traceable to the company’s network if you suspect deleted emails.

I see this in my employees regularly, and it’s frightening how can than weasel themselves in and out of nearly any situation to suit their own agendas.
