You became an international Grammy-winning music star before you were even of legal drinking age and struggled to reconcile the privilege of enormous fame with basically being treated like a piece of meat in every aspect (hence why you wore baggy clothing and felt the need to apologize for winning too many awards so…

Y’know what? This is belittling for no good reason. Billie has talked at length about how crazy and potentially unsafe it can be for her to be in public, and also how worried she gets about contestant scrutiny and judgement. So it sounds like she just wants people to be safe and not do stupid shit that she could get…

I think it’s horrible he died in a crash with his daughter and other people, but I think he was guilty of rape. Hopefully he changed and didn’t rape anyone else. I’m not saying we need to dance on his grave, buuuuut. I’m a little annoyed how when someone dies they get hailed as a saint.

“Sitting down with the Italian news channel BFMTV” ?

I feel bad for everyone involved. Even Kobe. But yeah, dude raped a woman. Bet she wishes she could forget that happened.

He was the Jeffrey Epstein of mine.

“Folks” have a short memory. I also feel bad for his kids. Not only did they lose their father, but their father was a rapist.

I don’t need a reminder; actually it was one of the first things I thought of when the news popped up in my feed. News of his death still shocked the shit out of me tho...

Folks erased that years ago. He will go down in history as a legend and if you bring up that he was a rapist, you will be the bad guy.

Just a reminder that Kobe Bryant probably raped a woman.

Somewhere near Edwards, CO, a 36 year old woman whispers “good.”

Horrible for his kids, but I find it very hard to summon sympathy for this rapist son-of-a-bitch

RIP

Just read this on NYT. Maybe the vibrator thing is a myth? Intersting read. 

John Cornyn (TX)

My favorite is how he endorsed and got his people to fund Randy Bryce, when by all accounts the woman running against Bryce in the primary (Cathy Myers) had a much better shot. She actually had some experience. Bryce was just a caricature for what very online leftists think “working class” people are.

My favorite bad endorsement of his is Tim Canova. That dude has been trying—unsuccessfully—to unseat Rep. Wasserman-Schultz for years now. He’s also a Seth Rich truther. Bernie now acts like he doesn’t know the guy.

Another unforced error was when he endorsed an anti-choice candidate for mayor of Omaha, Nebraska. There was no reason for him to get involved in that race, but he went out of his way to show that he’s cool with politicians who would vote against abortion rights.

Dammit, you chucklefuck, your intentions were perfectly clear. You wanted to hurt and embarrass a total stranger because some stray gross impulse darted across your lizard brain and being a white male, you never even thought to resist or question it. You honestly expected her to find that funny or at least “laugh it…

Actual conversation between my mom and me:

I believe you misread. Good ol’ Mayor Pete absolutely WILL keep having closed door meetings with billionaires and will NOT help keep money out of politics. Because, he is a tool.
