Even the deposition seems to raise more questions for Luke than Kesha. The fact that they knew to ask those specific questions about him drugging and raping her five whole years ago seems to be more evidence that she isn’t just making it up out of he blue.

right... because giving 250,000 to someone to fight a legal battle is a super ambivalent message that requires a tweet to explain whose side she’s on

Because Kesha has stated many times that she has racked up many legal bills fighting this.

Just pause for a second on point 4 and imagine any industry where someone could be compelled to work with another person, even if they would rather quit their job and find a new one, because they signed a contract. These are creative relationships; those don’t always work out even without the alleged rape and abuse.…

She seems to have a very good reputation in the industry, which may explain why so many artists from big pop stars to indie artists have shown support for her. I’m sure people in the industry know who the real problem is here, when even people who’ve worked with Luke are siding with her. I think she’ll easily get…

OMFG JUST CUT HEEEERRRRR. This is ridiculous. Is Dr. Luke threatening to leave if they cut Kesha because it’ll make him look guilty? My fucking God, look at Chris Brown’s success after beating Riri, and Dr. Luke is white. (Eta, I’m not saying that I support it, it’s just clearly the reality women face in music or…

I think a public condemnation of Dr. Luke and refusal to work with him would have been a better way to go. That, of course, is riskier than writing a check.

He's an entirely CGI character. Having him turn into an entirely CGI normal looking guy would be buying a one-way ticket to the uncanny valley.

Deadpool, as a rule, is meandering, unfocused and scattered. His “Death of...” issue featured him defeating an entire army single-handedly while his friends were protected by a hygienically-challenged warlock and the ghost of Ben Franklin. Meanwhile, comedian Scott Adsit is a SHIELD agent and Howard the Duck hosts a…

I doubt it. She publicly gave her a quarter of a million dollars to fight a lawsuit against Sony. Saying she’d never work with Sony or Dr. Luke wouldn’t carry any weight because she’s with a different record label altogether and that would never happen anyways so you’re wrong actually, and condemning him and refusing…

She just signed her name to $250,000 of support.

What? Really? Where is she supposed to get her money from? How is she supposed to pay for her therapists and lawyers. 250k probably barely covers legal bills.

She’s probably had little to no income all while paying a very expensive lawyer.

Slightly OT: I’ve never been a Taylor Swift fan ‘n mostly absorbed her shit through cultural osmosis, but, even though she really does nothing for me, I can’t seem to dislike her. She seems like a decent person and a hard worker with some genuine talent for what she does, she just happens to make a product I don’t…

For fucks sake.

I can’t believe that I’m supporting a Taylor Swift, feminist move but I am and I’m impressed. This is actually the first instance of her understanding what basic feminism is.

I respect that she is being vocal, but damn, tweets in the middle of the night do not make her better then everyone else.

Exactly. I’m not even a Taylor Swift fan, but the crap and criticism she receives is getting ridiculous. I’m sure, with legal fees, that $250,000 must be VERY helpful right now.

Did you see the Hollow Crown? They have one of the King (played by Tom Hiddleston’s) close relatives portrayed by a black actor. I get wanting to have diversity, but it was jarring.
