He leaves gross insinuations like this hanging because he knows it will cause outrage.

Presumably this is only the tip of the iceberg.

In fairness though, sex addiction ( a destructive, compulsive habitual behaviour if not a disease) does not always include predation.

I feel like this one’s a bit tricky. Where did John Oliver expect it to go? I suppose he could’ve straight up said, “I think the responsible thing to do here is to challenge Hoffman in order to transform the panel into a discussion of harassment in media, etc” But I think what he did instead was kind of half-baked in…

In other news, Hustler magazine announce independent commission to investigate allegations that the magazine’s toxic workplace culture encourages the objectification of women.

No. But I’ll enthusiastically offer immunity for singing along to Trojan X-rated reggae tracks as well as old, dirty double entendre big band songs.

I will be a little surprised if the media doesn’t dig deep over the next few weeks to find a legit case of female sex harassment which is then very loudly and very publicly pushed front and center, dominating a few news cycles towards the illusion of a gender-neutral problem. 

Because a college intern can hardly adequately consent to sex with the most powerful leader in the free world. It’s such an extreme and unusual situation and such a parable about consent/coercion under discrepant power dynamics that revisiting it in, say, a NYT magazine cover story, might just drive it home for the…

Fortunately or unfortunately, I suspect that the easiest way to make sure this is widely and properly publicly accepted will be to revisit the Clinton / Lewinsky debacle much more emphatically.

From practically the first second I ever saw this man over a decade ago, I would’ve put my money on his behaving this way.

The story of humanity genocidal modern colonialism is one of movement forced relocation and change violent displacement of indigenous people and racial minorities by the elite class and their brainwashed, subservient white friends in the working and middle class.

Cutting to whats most important (to me) here: I have just noticed the implication of the title for the first time, Trans Parent, despite having watched every season.

Disclaimer: Takei presumably did this and I have no reason to believe his accuser would make this allegation if not based in fact, even notwithstanding Takei’s universal likability etc. But ...

My disinterest in what Burning Man has become grows exponentially. But still, isn’t it time they put some core principles into play and figure out how to make all those woke 1%-ers on the Playa foot the bill for the everybody else? Let’s start with a Paris tax.

Supermarkets don’t carry much that can reasonably be called “loot,” FWIW.

And this is why it’s such a critical and treasured thing that here in the US we fiercely protect the right of poor people to influence their neighborhoods and communities while also supporting minority housing ownership through a variety of federal and municipal level controls and initiatives to prevent rapid…

There should NOT be scare quotes around the real in “real taquerias.” Chipotle is a (delicious when in a pinch) fake-ass taqueria and we simply cannot risk the heritage of our collective honesty and intelligence by, in any way, allowing this slippage.

I am not “negating” anything, thanks. And people are often suicidal because of their “life situation.” To a certain degree, suicide hotlines for all their good intention do sustain the idea that people become suicidal due to mental illness or unclear thinking. All I’ve said here is that they did not work for me and…

Oh FFS. I didn’t say anything of the sort. Get over yourself.
