*groan*... Ugh, are we gonna have to put up with a Richardson renaissance in a couple of years after “not tolerating sexual predators” stops being fashionable? If I never have to look at one of his greasy over-explosed flattened-out flash photos again, it’ll be too soon. Gack.

One thing it took me a long time to learn in my 20s was that I don’t even actually WANT to be friends with a lot of people I used to know. They’re fine people, but their lifestyles diverged from mine and it turns out that simply living down the hall from someone for a year in college isn’t enough to sustain a…

I never understood the continued desire to work with him. On top of all the allegations, he’s a shitty photographer. His aesthetic was one-off kitsch 10 years ago and his photos have always been unflattering to both the models and the clothes. No one comes out looking good for hiring him.

Well, I’d say let Katy speak for herself.

Congratulations!

Session 9 is one of those horror movies that I probably wouldn’t have watch on my own, but a friend got me the DVD years back and I still watch it at least once a year.

I heard that “Hello” as sung, and I hope that’s what you were looking for.

I saw about Richardson and I was like FINALLY. So happy his mediocre, overlit photography will no longer be valued over the abuse.

There is a lot of pain and suffering in that man’s eyes. He’s done a lot of silly things, but the pain and suffering in those eyes are undeniable.

Can everyone please watch The Good Place? If it gets cancelled I’m going to be so sad. Its such a great show, now go catch up on Netflix!

You could do a “32 going on 23" party and just have everybody be the worst version of themselves.

Yeah “attempt at humor”? Like your best way to attempt humor is to assault someone? WTF.

I think it’s a combination of sadism (actually wanting to hurt/humiliate/torture the actress) and condescension (a man’s performance is a product of his skill as an actor, but a woman can’t do that— she can only feel).

This post led me down a bit of a rabbit hole. It made me think of the famous story about Olivier telling Dustin Hoffman, in regards to Hoffman’s method acting (supposedly), “Why don’t you try acting? It’s so much easier.” I wondered if it was true that that really happened and I ended up finding this very touching…

It’s not awful to think or say those things. Yes, it is important that women are telling their stories, and it’s important that people are listening. But the point of the telling isn’t to traumatize those who have also been victimized. I guess what I’m saying is that no one expects you to take all of those stories on…

I grew up in a moderately abusive household (both genders being guilty parties) and anytime anyone shows anger physically (banging shit around, punching objects, and even just that way of storming around yelling) I shut th fuck down. Get out of my face, leave my space, I will never look upon your fucking face ever…

It is impossible to be both anti-abortion and anti-contraception at the same time. If you claim to be both you belong to a different category labeled “anti-intelligence”.

It certainly did me. It has forced me to re-evaluate a lot of my previous interactions with women. It has also made me realize I need to be exceedingly proactive in teaching my son about consent, boundaries, accountability, etc.

I hope this makes some of those “good men” try to remember the things they have forgotten. I hope that realizing you are an unself-aware part of the solution is still part of the problem. It certainly had that effect on me.

...what the heck was this article?! I clicked, expecting to see some examples of the lies and then some sort of truth......
