When the house-robbing arsonist is your best boyfriend, you know you need to do a little bit of soul-searching.

Yeah! Awesome that we're on the same page!

Save the tatas, consent the D...

God, is there any person more disappointing than Alec Baldwin? How do you work your way into my heart like that, only to completely throw all the liberal values you claim to hold dear into the trash because you hate everyone?

If the whole movement is about ethics in journalism, why does Sarkeesian get so much hate? I was under the impression she was more of a talking head than a game journalist.

I don't understand how it could even be allowed to happen in the first place. When I worked in the ER, I know if some nurse had pulled out her phone, I would have yelled at her, "What the fuck do you think you're doing?"

I'm pretty sure this is really about ethics in crime journalism.

I'm smiling imagining Phyllicia Rashad slapping the shit out of Cosby.

Well, that's another of Cosby's problematic layers: the fact that he thinks every black person in America should listen to what he has to say. Even if his private life was squeaky clean, it would still be gross.

John Lennon.

Maybe I am being a little selfish, though I think that's kind of a strange way to look at it. I just don't feel that I have to deprive myself of good art by shitty artists. Chinatown is a genuinely phenomenal film, and I will watch it when it comes on. I'm not sure that partaking (especially when I'm not giving them

It would probably depend on the topic of his comedy at the moment. The Noah stuff would be less troublesome than hearing him make jokes about women, since that context will always be there. I never liked Woody Allen movies in the first place, and always found his films to be a little fetish-y, but obviously the Farrow

And that's completely understandable. I wasn't suggesting that you HAVE to separate the two, just that fans don't put on blinders because they enjoy his act so much.

And that's fine too. Mostly I'm talking about the people whose love of a particular person's art turns them into apologists. I might have garbled the message a bit, and if so, my apologies.

To the inevitable people who will get upset (they were on Gawker):

It does sorta feel similar to how The National Review decided to go after Lena Dunham, because young and has sort of become the effigy for those of the younger generation who lean liberal.

That cat has had enough of this twee Juno bullshit.

Reading those stories makes me feel like I'm packing porn star junk. Hooray for my averageness!

When I'm drunk, really I just want to look at MORE of the normal porn I like. If booze actually transformed a drinker into a pedophile, prohibition would have lasted a hell of a lot longer.

Although it also has to be said that Sheheen is pretty damn spineless, and for all his talk of "not being afraid", he refuses to take a strong stance on any LGBT issues.
