Yes it’s got me thinking of a few things. Uma Thurman: “I’ve learned that when I’ve spoken in anger, I usually regret the way I express myself.” This is a problem I have too. I don’t know how to do a better job when expressing myself is important but time-sensitive (e.g., I must say something right now or soon)

This time last year I was considering the tapering of my meds.

I was super impressed with her response. That’s a big lesson to learn - that when you speak in anger, you aren’t always heard. I’ve always liked her, and I like her even more now.

Similarly, any time a Muslim attacker turns out to have been abusive to his wife, it’s because he’s Muslim, not because domestic abuse is endemic in every society.

This is now how I respond to other white people. Because when a Muslim or black person or Hispanic person does something awful, they’re a terrorist, jihadist, etc., etc. When a white person does it, they’re mentally ill.

Now playing

“Megyn Kelly said “something in our culture” is “just wrong.”

I’m just waiting for him to declare mental health issues as a ‘National Health Emergency’, so they can split up the $56K the Department Of Health has on hand for NHEs with the opiod crisis..... We’ll have a stack of ‘Say “NO” To Mental Health Issues” bumper stickers to go along with “Say “NO” To Drugs”.

They are both brave in different ways. I think I’m a mix of both of them. On one hand, I want to burn it all down and take the scorched earth approach like Rose. Sometimes unbridled anger is healthy. Sometimes it can burn everything clean. On the other hand, I want to be collected like Uma. I want to be

Raise your hand if you feel your mental health has been affected by Donald Trump personally?

““very deranged individual [with] a lot of problems over a long period of time.””

But enough about the President. 

I find with context (I watched that video), it’s less subjective than your comment lets on.

I’ll give you that it’s complicated, but generally speaking nobody is going to raise a fuss if you politely ask a woman you know out once, she declines, and you don’t approach her again.

Aside from his moronic nonsense that it’s not about guns, does our dipshit in chief even realize that his willful and spiteful dismantling of Obamacare will make mental health services even more difficult to access? Ugh, he’s such a fool, it makes my head hurt.

According to The Telegraph, Uma starred in seven Miramax films and after looking through her IMDB she starred in four films that Weinstein executive produced. Pulp Fiction (1994), Beautiful Girls (1996), Kill Bill Vol. 1 (2003) and Kill Bill Vol. 2 (2004). Technically Kill Bill was one long film that they cut in

I have heard several men make this sort of comment recently about how they could possibly be expected to discern between an appropriate and an inappropriate gesture of interest in a woman. As if the two are so terribly similar that one might “accidentally” harass a woman. Like, how could any well-meaning gentleman

Holy shit, Uma Thurman’s fury is everything right now.

As someone who doesn’t love talking about personal stuff, I can empathize with Uma Thurman not being ready to discuss this right now. Especially when this was all well known and nobody gave af for decades and now people are ready to listen. No, I’m not going to be open on your arbitrary timetable.

Yep. Wonder how much of her apparent anger in the above clip is aimed at HW and how much at QT.

I can’t even imagine how Uma Thurman must feel right now. Her two biggest movies were Weinstein productions (Pulp Fiction and Kill Bill).

Waiting for Uma’s statement...
