Right? I was randomly wondering what happened to him the other day, but playing a cult leader on Riverdale is somehow exactly what I would’ve expected. Enjoy your renaissance while it lasts, CMM!

That’s a good point, but if I were in the industry I’d definitely want some more science on the table. Porn sex is stunt sex, and even civilian sex tends to cause internal injuries. There are more injuries involved with stunt sex and I’d want to be sure that more opportunities for infection don’t negate a negligible…

The irony is that they’re actually the people doing the Lord’s work. 

This is a large part of what the Satanic Temple is doing. They’ve filed some fantastic lawsuits and they’re definitely worth checking out if you haven’t already.

This is a great breakdown! I think there’s a lot to be said for unifying the testing systems used by gay and straight performers, and definitely some sort of standard for European performers who want to work on American films and/or with American performers. I can’t imagine the money and manpower it takes to maintain…

They’re two separate things. You can buy a ticket on a Monday to fly on a Thursday. That’s what they’re talking about.

I hope things are getting better for you. 

Thanks for sharing that info; it’s a good point. It’s just a little scary to think that cops are in cop mode all the time and don’t stop to think about things from the civilian point of view. 

As with everything else, you have to be just the right kind of white.

The lack of color range is definitely going to be an issue. I’m a pretty light-skinned WOC, but pretty much all of Too Faced’s and half of Colourpop’s stuff is either too light for me or the undertone is way off. “Universal” really means “light-skinned white folks.”

Sure, but you were signing up to do that. Teachers do not sign up to be trained like police officers and confusing one for the other can set a pretty dangerous precedent.

What kind of bonkers shooting drill involves actually get shot? That’s what those inane run/hide/fight videos are for. 

It’s such a godawful system sometimes. I’m sorry your wife had such a hard time getting care. I hope y’all are hanging in there.

For me, the issue is a lot simpler: They didn’t earn their spot at their university, so I don’t think they should continue to hold that spot. That’s hardly “North Korea shit.”And honestly, I’m not invested enough in this story to continue debating it. I’m mostly just trying to stay abreast so I understand the context…

Oh, I’m definitely on Team Kick Them Out. As someone else mentioned, sometimes you have have to bear the consequences of other people’s actions. That’s the way the world works for the rest of us and these students should have to experience that, too. 

Luckily everyone in my industry has to pass a criminal background check, so it’s a moot point.

If it’s relevant to the job they’re doing? Yes, more so than someone who doesn’t have that history. I’d hire an applicant with no history of embezzlement over a candidate whose spouse or child had a history of embezzlement. 

I’ve been wondering how the schools are going to hire future licensure. If the cheating students keep their spots and are granted degrees and then go on to professions that require legal licensure, what happens then? Professional licenses often require completion of certain degrees, but if admission to the…

We’re back to the doctor being untrustworthy. If parents are willing to bribe officials to get their students into school, I’m going to have a hard time believing anyone in that family who claims ignorance when it benefits them. I’d expect most students to recognize that a big jump in their SAT scores or admission to…

If they cheated to get in, it’s not outside the realm of possibility that they’re cheating to stay there. All their academic work should be suspect at this point, just like all my doctor’s interpretations of my labs would be suspect. My doctor may have done well in med school and be technically qualified, but now…
