Yeah. We had an exec who would wander into random cubes and start shoulder massages on women without saying a word. I never realized how common that turns out be.

Interestingly, re: the NYT story that was spiked, Damon says he did call the reporter, Sharon Waxman, to discuss an aspect of the story, at Harvey’s urging. He talks about the brief conversation, etc. Waxman supports his story (that he did not know the investigational aspects of her story).

Wow, this that sucks. I’d like to share something with you. I used to work in a very large legal publishing company for a number of years. A new art director was hired after the previous director retired. The suspect behavior literally started 48 hours before her first day. After her final meeting of staff in the…

It’s not even just fear of this one guy. Yesterday Jezebel published an article about how other executives are afraid they’re going to be accused of sexual harassment so now they don’t even want to work with women at all. So if you accuse one guy, you run the risk of turning every man in your industry against you. No…

My mother went to American University in Beirut for medical school in the early 90s. There was one associate dean (who had been working there for nearly 20 years and was basically a legend in his field) who only invited female students to his house on weekends/holidays for dinner. Everyone just said it was his way of…

Women did speak up, at the time. One Italian actress went to the police and he admitted it to the prosecutor and it was still buried. As was said here a memo was circulated about his behavior.

How are you, Angel?

His explanation is given additional treatment in the Guardian:

It was a different time. You may not know this, but in 2008, we didn’t really know it was wrong to kidnap and rape children. Just like we didn’t know it was wrong to beat women until 2014. It’s been a very busy decade for us becoming “woken” and stuff.

What I read last night was that he also signed something to the effect that he would never try to contact his victim or the child and would pay up and that’s it.

I had that happen to me too. I was assaulted by a guy in our group who was getting married in a few weeks. Told the guy I liked because I didn’t want him to think I messed around with the other guy (that was my concern at the time). Every one distanced themselves from me because AWKWARD. In my case, the guy did…

I was sexually assaulted in college 10 years ago. About a month ago I sent a facebook message to the culprit’s long term girlfriend telling her what had happened, describing it in graphic detail. Pressing charges was never an option I wanted to take, but after experiencing PTSD for a decade, I had to do something.…

So this guy violently beat her in front of a crowded party then dragged her upstairs and raped her for hours and the people at the party........made more nachos??

I feel like this whole story is going to be a clusterfuck where everyone except Weinstein gets raked over the coals. All the stories from here on out are going to go EXACTLY like the Hollywood rumors about him have gone for years, “Okay, well, we know he is a creep/sick fuck/asshole/rapist, but what about this other…

A dog means he chases pussy while in a relationship, not necessarily that he sexually assaults women. Of course, that’s ignoring the huge power imbalance at play, but maybe George only saw him hitting on women at parties, where, presumably, there was no transactional coercion involved. Anyway, it does all read as…

Folks around here seem absolutely gleeful to have a “ reason” to shit on him.

I teach in a high school in Texas, the US pledge and Texas pledge are said during my 2nd period. I noticed a white girl sitting out since day one and other kids telling her to stand up. So she was absent the day after the NFL kneeling and it was a great opportunity for me to explain that it was a protected right to…

turns out the media is just like high school—the nerds want to befriend the edgy kids to cobble together a tougher public persona. unfortunately, instead of making dead baby jokes, they’re in cahoots with nazis.

If that’s the case, I’d count on Donnie Two-Scoops to fire everybody at 11:59pm on their 364th day, because he can only find sexual release through being a petty asshole.

Trump is a textbook Narcissist. Exclusion as punishment, gaslighting, humalation, etc are all standard behaviors for narcissists.
