A 32 year age gap? How icky, what is this old man thinking....oh wait, two women. My fault! Totally different then.

Tom Hanks to Buzzfeed interviewer: “If you threw out every film or TV show that was made by an a-hole, Netflix would go out of business.”
I’m not racist. I have white friends. Namaste!
The court found Dylan Farrow’s claim to be credible and Allen not to be. The court also found that Allen had attempted to influence testimony. He lost four court cases over this, including two appeals. Other adults (non family members) corroborated Dylan’s account at the time. This is not a “he said, she said” but…
She’s like so many other actors and actresses because she doesn’t give a shit about those allegations and wants a shot at winning an Oscar. Selena Gomez just gave an interview where she said she auditioned 3 times(!) to be in Woody’s movie and after someone else passed, they hired her. I can’t understand why actors…
Jesus Christ. Some of these comments are such a goddamned shitshow. First, just because Republicans have rallied around men who have done worse than Franken doesn’t mean that Democrats owe Franken a fucking pass. The manner in which so many Democrats are dismissing the experiences of the women who Franken violated is…
Al is a creep. I don’t know how much of a creep he is now, but his past actions are those of a creep.
So, what should we do? Should we adopt their tools? Should we accuse Franken’s accusers of being paid political liars? Should we demand that they apologize for him for hurting his career? Should we shout “Fake news!” and go pull the lever for a known creep?
And here we have another person condoning sexual assault as long as they’re democrats.
As one of the pussies, I’m just fine with a party that’s welcoming to us for a change. Both parties have been throwing women to the wolves for decades. What do you think happens to staffers who resign and interns whose biggest learning experience is that the statehouse isn’t a safe place for them?
He was a good senator for Minnesota.
I’m sad as one of his constituents, but that’s what you get for being a fucking creep Franken.
I hate to be right here but, I called it.
I’ve been so confused by the prevalence of the, “But mom,” reaction, especially since there’s not even a seat at risk. The Republicans don’t have one up on the Democrats if their party is full of harassers and creeps and ours holds its members to a minimal standard of conduct. That’s a good thing for us. It means the…
This, by far, BY FAR, is the worst ‘apology’ statement out of the whole canon of ‘I’m sorry if anyone thinks they were hurt by the things I remember differently. I’m going to go away for a little while, because I need to make myself believe again that I’m awesome - so awesome I don’t need to rape!’ apologies.
“All women deserved to be taken seriously. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have to resign because some women lied about me and others are crazy and don’t remember things as they actually happened.”
“This has been a tough few weeks, but I am a very lucky man. I’m going to be just fine.”
I think the whatever lawyer and/or PR professional who came up with the “I remember our encounter differently” talking point is going to win a lifetime achievement award one day.
“I’m going to be just fine.” Truer words have never been spoken. Don’t worry about Al Franken because he will be just fine. Just like every other fucking privileged white man. I wouldn’t even be surprised if Weinstein makes a comeback tour in a few years.
Gah, the whole Moore/Trump thing. Our ethical guidelines can’t be summed up with “but mom, everyone else is doing it”
