As is Bill Murray, Letterman serially leveraged his star power to have relations with his subordinates.

It’s because she was a terrible candidate.

There’s a bit of a difference between support and appreciation/enjoyment though.

You don’t want to support the work of a person you consider to be some degree of monster. (I hate to confirm Godwin’s law, but if we were talking about some actor who was confirmed to be a proud, unrepentent Nazi, would we still be having the same conversation about separating the art from the person, even if there’s…

I work for a non-profit. I know that sexual harassment and assault happen in any industry, but some days I’m just happy that we don’t make enough money for there to be a massive power imbalance. The CEO at my company certainly makes way more than I do, but it’s not the millions that studio execs, actors, directors,…

Goddammit, you made me laugh and now I’m going to Hell. Have your damn star.

HE KILLED A MILLION IRAQIS.

Bush was a terrible president, but at least he appeared to have a modicum of respect for some of the US political institutions. I don’t think Trump has even that, except maybe the military (yeah, to be fair they both appear to have major hard ons for the military).

Mel Gibson is a racist homophobe and an abuser. He does not deserve a second chance. He does not deserve forgiveness. [snip] I can’t even believe this has to be said.

I am going to have a fucking rage stroke and de the next time some hashtag resistance jerk praises George W Bush. W doesn’t stand for Woke. It stands for waterboarding.

I’m finding it very hard. Learned on here recently that the creator of two of my favorite comics is an alt-righter. A lithograph from one of those comics dominates my living room and I have two smaller prints from it in my office. It’s been two weeks and I still haven’t wrapped my head around it or figured out whether…

This absolutely in no way justifies Chris Benoit’s crimes, at all. It is still worth noting that he was found to have depression and pretty serious brain damage due to concussions. I mention that primarily because of its possible contribution to that crime, as well as that it contrasts with the situations of the…

Louis CK is impossible to get past. His entire act is predicated on him being awkward and depressed, along with failing with women, so his perversion is hard to separate from his act.

Yeah! They’re practically the same! Oh, remember Al Gore? Manbearpig? Hahahahahaha that’s global warming! Caring about things is stupid!

Mel “sugar tits” Gibson had it pretty rough for a while. But here we are. Oscar-nominated film last year, and Daddy’s Home 2 opens this weekend. So what does that say?

Hardly. They played their feeble-minded “douche vs turd” angle, which continued this dangerous, “both sides are the same! You’re fucked either way!” style of thinking, that is unfortunately shared by a good majority of people.

To be fair, Chris Benoit never worked again either.

For me it’s by degrees. If Weinstein were an actor, I’m confident there’s no way I could watch any of his films. Spacey is likely in that category as well, with the reluctant admission that I will continue watching LA Confidential (a top 5 favorite).

a president who somehow makes us long for Bush’s kinder, gentler war crimes.

South Park also said that “both sides are equally bad” last year, so them spending an entire episode making fun of George Clooney (who was in the movie for crying out loud) speaks to their self-rightousness rather than their wit. And I’m not even a South Park hater!
