The only thing better than this article are the mansplainy comments. #blessyourheart

I can only speak for me, but I am a sucker for Johnny Depp movies (even though I fully expect them to be pretty bad at this point) and had wanted to see the Alice in Wonderland sequel (I said I was a sucker!). I didn’t because of this. Just nope, no interest in supporting him at all. I think others felt the same. Of

You make a studio a billion dollars, you tend to get more chances than someone who hasn’t.

Neither party has made false accusations for financial gains. There was never an intent of physical or emotional harm.

Do you think all of this has done any actual damage to his career? It bothers me that Ghostbusters is now considered a misfire and this dickhead has had countless flops and keeps getting license to do more (see also: Zack Snyder).

Well, for me it was the testimony of the third man in the apartment that night, Kangas. I could hardly get through the trial transcript. He testified that the victim wasn’t moving and didn’t have her eyes open while his friends were “having sex” with her. Kangas watches for awhile (after Parker waves him in to observe)

When Kobe Bryant, hardly a paragon of virtue, settled with his victim, he issued a public apology that saw him saying that, while he truly believed the encounter was consensual, after listening to her testimony he understood how she felt that it was not. While that is not entirely satisfying and I’m not sure how both

Honestly, I don’t know. I struggle hard with things like this and I don’t have an answer. Gandhi was a shithole wife abuser. MLK Jr. cheated on his wife multiple times. Jefferson raped slaves and talked about how great the institution was for making money. So-called “great men” cannot keep their fucking dicks in their

It’s hard to know how to feel about this one. I was in college at the same time as Parker and though this is in no way an excuse, how people thought about consent was not as evolved at that time. Anecdotally, about half of my female friends (myself included) had sexual experiences where we were too intoxicated to give

Jackline Mwende, 27, says she was counseled by her pastor to try to save her marriage, despite escalating abuse.

Pastor Kioko added: “But we noticed the man was determined to leave. So it was agreed that they live in peace in their separate homes

Yeah. It took my husband and me a long time to figure that out. For the first few years of our marriage, he’d get upset with my “moods,” and I didn’t have the insight, let alone the vocabulary, to explain my needs to him. It was actually listening to the Savage Lovecast that got us over the hump. Dan taught us to

That’s my dream room, if it also includes my cat and dog.

Member of the same club here. Now, excuse me while I go sit in a book lined room, with one lamp, wine and a candle.

This. I tried to explain to a good friend once that I’m actually pretty painfully shy sometimes and she straight laughed at me and told me I didn’t know why shy meant. Apparently she missed the part where I’ll drop off the radar for several days if I’ve spent too much time around other people. (Or when I had to lock

The older I get, the more at peace I become with being an introvert. I love my alone time and I don’t apologize for it anymore. It surprises me that Goldie is that way too as she has such an outgoing personality, but then, people are also surprised that I’m one too when I tell them that too. It’s why relationships are

I love it when I learn that individuals who are funny/loud/outgoing, like Amy Schumer, are actually introverts. I am like this. When I am “on,” I can be the total life of the party and genuinely enjoy it, but I’m going to need like 3 days alone in the woods (just kidding, bugs are gross; please drop me off at the

I get tired of being around people and I need time to myself. It gets draining to have to be a person with other people.

and I FOUND IT in my email

Totally unrelated, I just remembered that five years ago I wrote a term paper in grad school about Jezebel and I got like a C on it.
