It doesn’t matter though. The victims will see this and think “Why should I come forward if a agreement can be made and the rapist gets away with it?”

This is the compromise infrastructure bill you’re talking about? The one that had to involve no tax increase and that got stripped of anything five Republicans weren’t comfortable with?

well, he’s white, so maybe some changes will be made, rather than people focusing on his prior indiscretions or mistakes. 

The Takeout covered this story without being petty and bitch and trying to invoke the usual outrage Olympics.

For everyone responding that they should have known about the backlash and that their allyship is only performative, please consider that they can both be brave for saying anything publicly at all in their conservative town AND also underestimate just how racist their community still is. I grew up in small southern…

I was thinking the same thing. I’m sure the animal rescue is a cause already close to this woman’s heart, and when put on the spot, it was the first thing that came to mind. The snark about it seems pointless, at best.  Caring about things isn’t a zero-sum game.

in 10 years? in most major cities thats now.
Businesses and independants big and boldy waving Trump 2020 flags (STILL), signs like “I support the thin blue line”, etc etc.

I am very sorry to hear about this friend’s death.

A lot of skilled, talented, good people make a game.

I like QD games, the decisions you make in them actually do have big ramifications instead of something like Telltale’s TWD where it only seems that way but outcomes are much more limited. Heavy Rain is the best IMO, even with its plot holes.

I don’t know enough about the book to know if any parts (not the mob in the forest) was inspired by real events, but smokejumping is one of the most dangerous professions and becoming more prevalent with the increased drought in the west. A friend of my family’s, a Forest Service smokejumper named Tom Hart died last…

I am guilty of being THE audience for this kind of stuff. I watch (and read) serial killer crap and have since I was in junior high school. Much has been written about the phenomenal interest in the “genre,” and I’m not sure it’s all about the readers and viewers being bad people. (I’m agreeing with everything you’ve…

Not to apologize for this genre, which is certainly icky, but isn’t it a pretty well-established fact (from cops, witnesses and people who knew him socially) that Bundy was fairly charming and good-looking (though it’s amazing what was considered hot in the 70s), and that’s why he was able to talk women into going…

The whole system is irredeemably corrupt.

And a real thigh gap isn’t a rectangle.

If the purpose of the post was to make me horny, mission accomplished. More pics, less text please.

That is the worst Photoshop thigh gap though. No one looks like that.

I get it’s fun to snark, but for what it’s worth I wear Wicked Weasel bikinis, and there are no issues swimming, tubing, and any other participating in any other water activities.

This has been proven wrong by multiple studies that concluded that even if you have a sensitivity to it, it takes 3 grams of it straight (not mixed into anything else) consumed at once to elicit a response. That response is gastrointestinal issues not migraines. If you don’t have a sensitivity it takes like 10g
