It’s about seeing the bodies of women who don’t want you seeing their bodies. They got off on violating women, on turning them into their sex toys. Misogyny isn't just ‘I hate women’.

She said in her statement that she wasn’t given the option to purchase her masters outright. Which makes sense due to her catalog being the most of the value of the label as it stood. She was offered a deal to earn one record back per each new one she put out. Knowing that Borchetta (the label head) was in market to…
After sitting in many board meetings personally (part of my job), and after the garbage that was done to people like Ke$sha, Kelly Clarkson, JoJo, and countless others, I am never on the side of the record label, and am never inclined to believe whatever they put out. It doesn’t matter if you don’t like Taylor…
You know, there's a whole article underneath the headline that you're also supposed to read.
“the probability that people will misuse it is too high.”
I’m curious what non-abusive uses they envisioned. Maybe women who wanted to see themselves naked but didn’t want to take off their own clothing to find out?
Only if you aren’t smart enough to figure out who Kim’s asshole is.
Ugh, what a nightmare. I feel for Taylor, because while the music industry has always excelled at exploiting young artists at the beginning of their careers, selling their catalogs to their sworn enemy just seems like an extra dose of evil fuckery. It will be interesting to see what, if anything, comes out of her…
And often their misogyny is more insidious than your average jock/frat boy who isn’t stealthy enough to destroy women’s lives the way a tech guru might .
The fact that they thought this thing was for entertainment says it all.
So ... they’re pretending to be shocked that people might have wanted to abuse this tech? Because I gotta say, that strikes me as completely predictable....
A good reminder that as we figure out all of the ways AI is impacting our lives, including regulating its use, women really really really really need to be involved in all of these conversations. Laws already took waaaaay too long to catch up with revenge porn. And because this deepnudes bullshit shows women are and…
Yeah, and Sean Duffy had the nerve to complain how hard it was to raise his child army and keep two houses on his Congressional salary and gold-plated benefits and pension for life. Fuck him. You know he’d be the first to tell poor people not to have so many kids if they don’t want to be poor. Party of personal…
She was a proud college Republican, sort of flaunted her ardent Catholicism, and seemed a bit homophobic at first. She loudly freaked about living with Pedro, afraid of his disease. To her credit, she came around a lot on that. But yeah, she’s a rightwinger in a tight dress on Fox News now.
Jez needs to do a whole separate article about Rachel, I don’t know how you can go through that experience with Pedro and wind up that way.
Sean Duffy. I think they met during one of the Real World/Road Rules Challenges, and the world was made a little bit worse.
I knew they edited that shit with Puck. A couple of my friends who I bummed around with in LA and I watched that shit and every time there was crap on Puck we all agreed “There is soooo much more.”
She’s married to that guy from The Real World Boston cast who is now a Republican Congressperson from WI. And she’s pregnant with baby #9....at age 47. Both Rachel and her husband are useless windbags with no redeeming qualities.
I did not realize Rachel was a Fox News talking head with 9 (!) kids. She did kiss/make out with Puck well after it was established he was a shithead on the show, I think.
