This is all giving me horrible anxiety and yet I can’t stop listening to/reading the livestreams.

Mr Pool forever!

I really fucking enjoyed his Ghostbusters and there’s not a single takedown piece I have read that detracts from the pure enjoyment I feel watching four professional women inventing stuff, solving problems, making jokes, and supporting each other, all while (shockingly!) failing to pander to the male gaze.

So.. we gonna talk about grooming? Drake is a creepy motherfucker

G

Uh, even if this is totally innocent nobody should take relationship advice from Drake. Ever.

Yikes!  While it could be an instance of one former child star mentoring another child star, the rumors about Drake dating a barely out of high school model (and possibly since before she graduated) make me really uncomfortable with Drake having a close relationship with Millie.

I like flip-flops. On myself. On anyone. I like them ideally to be nice — leather is good, canvas is good, but even crappy Old Navy ones are okay, peeking out from beneath jeans. They add a nice, casual vibe.

I also feel like we’re in this odd place when it comes to female empowerment, because in north america it seems the dominant examples of “empowered” women are women who are themselves objectified, but they are okay with it/have leveraged financial gain from it.

Literally every new thing I learn about Marky Mark makes me dislike him even more than I already did.

“I said consider the circumstances. She’s a 17-year-old, by herself, in a foreign country. In a facility where she’s detained. And she has no one to talk to. And she’s pregnant. Now that is a difficult situation.”

That’s one reason I feel no one is getting out before 8pm and that’s being very generous. There’s gonna be so much praising of God and the Holy Spirit that I wouldn’t be surprised if the sky opened up and Jesus decided to return right there in the middle of it all.

At no point did I say Scientology is innocent. Clearly, I am comparing the sins of Catholicism, Islam, Jusdaism, Sikhism, Mormonism (more child fucking and early american savagery against native peoples) and many other religions to Scientology, which grossly pales in comparison.

YES, AND MUCH MORE! FORCED ABORTIONS, CHILD SLAVE LABOR, CRIMINAL ACTIVITY, MONEY SCAM BEYOND BELIEF, DISCONNECTION POLICY OF ONE’S OWN FAMILY AND ON AND ON AND ON AND ON AND ON! NOT TO MENTION stalking, harassing, verbally and physically, lying, suing any and all who criticize them or attack them whether ex-members…

Thanks for the input COB.  

No, scientology is easy to label as a cult because it has cult-like tendencies, forces people to sign billion year contracts, holds them against their will in secret compounds and at their core believes we are filled with alien souls ala “The Host” that can only be removed with interrogation/torture techniques, day…

God the word “tummy”. Something about it is so infantalizing like women need baby talk to describe their bodies.

Oh Mike, we all yearn for a more respectful time, but the problem is I want a time where all people are respected, and you want a time where women and black people weren’t so upity.

Brett Kavanaugh would have already been confirmed if we “lived in a more respectful time,”
